A Framework for Incorporating Minority Stress Theory into Treatment with Sexual Minority Clients
No full textEmpirical research has consistently demonstrated the negative mental health consequences of minority stress among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) populations; however, there is little understanding of how minority stress should be addressed in the actual clinical situation. This article discusses how to incorporate minority stress theory into clinical practice with LGB clients. A proposed framework begins with a two-part clinical assessment. The first part, based on Meyer’s (2003) minority stress model, examines the effects of prejudice events, stigma, internalized homophobia, and sexual orientation concealment. The second part, grounded in Hatzenbuelher’s (2009) work, examines the client’s coping/emotional regulation, social/interpersonal, and cognitive processes, which can be elevated by minority stress. Following the assessment process, the framework suggests using a LGB-affirmative treatment approach. The framework will be applied to the treatment of a black lesbian client in order to demonstrate its clinical utility.Peer reviewe
Tecniche di regolazione del mercato agro-industriale e diritto comune
No full textThe paper deals with the latest measures adopted by the European Union in order to protect the financial interests of the Union’ s budget and to prevent any irregularities or non compliance with obligations committed by beneficiaries of payments: particular reference is made to Reg..1306/2013 and Reg.1308/2013.
The paper focuses on measures involving both public and private law. Such as the cross-compliance system based on the principle that the full payment to beneficiaries of some supports under the Cap should be linked to compliance with rules concerning land management , agricultural production and agricultural activity; and the duty to use, in the agrifood chain contracts, formalised written contracts which must include principal elements provided by the Law, in order to enhance transparency. According to a trend well known to the commentators, the European policy manages private law and particularly legal provisions concerning economic relationships and contracts, as a way to rule the market. The A. points out how this techniques should no more be seen as specific measures belonging to the particular scope of the agricultural policy; but they rather need to be considered in the framework of general principles of civil law, particularly when the search for effective measures to act as a deterrence is implied, and remedies under civil law, together with administrative measures and penalties, seem to be more suitable
La ricerca della “specialità” dell’impresa agricola e l’inesorabile tramonto dell’art. 2135 cod. civ.
No full textThe paper focuses on the crisis of the distinction between commercial and agricultural enterprises as adopted in the Italian civil code. Technical progress and the development of industrial agriculture have weaken the traditional link between agricultural production and land . and reduced the structural disparities between industrial and agricultural production process. In the framework of such changes, it seems to become useless and even ambiguous the dual system adopted by Italian civil code, according which agricultural and commercial enterprises should be approached and regulating in different specific ways , due to the supposed weakness of rural enterprises particularly in the market relations. The A. criticizes this dual approach , and points out how uncertain become the boundaries between commercial and agricultural enterprises when a so called “connected” activity is implied (that is, when the farmer carries also out typical commercial activities, like transforming and selling of what he produces). Italian legislation, under the pressure of economic processes and of the CAP, has meaningfully reduced legal disparities in the statutory of agricultural enterprise, so that the separate definition provided in article 2135 Italian civil code looks updated and, particularly in the new wording drafted in 2002, it is unsuitable to take account of the various activities developed in a modern rural enterprise. The latest reform of Bankruptcy Act moves forward a uniform approach to the managing of business crisis and then it makes more and more anachronistic – the A. stresses – the aim to keep agricultural enterprise in a no failure zon
‘The Darkest Times of My Life’: Recollections of Child Abuse among Forced Migrants Persecuted because of Their Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity
No full textNumerous studies demonstrate that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) children and youth are likely to experience abuse by peers, parents, and other adults and that these experiences correlate with a host of mental health problems. However, there is little understanding of the experiences of LGBT children and youth living in countries where social and legal protections for sexual and gender minorities are limited or nonexistent. This qualitative study used thematic analysis to explore the child and adolescent abuse experiences and their impact on the pre-migration mental health of LGBT forced migrants. We analyzed 26 interviews with individuals who obtained refugee or asylee status in the United States or Canada on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Participants originated from countries in Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East. Analysis revealed the following themes: abuse by parents and caregivers, abuse by peers and school personnel, having nowhere to turn, and dealing with psychological distress. Findings indicate that participants experienced severe verbal, physical, and sexual abuse throughout childhood and adolescence and that this abuse occurred at home, in school, and in the community. Furthermore, there were no resources or sources of protection available to them. Participants linked their abuse to subjective experiences of depression, anxiety, and traumatic stress, as well as suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. We conclude with implications for refugee adjudication practices, mental health care, and international policy.© 2015.
