Book Description
El maltrato familiar hacia las personas mayores constituye una realidad oculta con escasa visibilidad social, académica y mediática. Nuestras sociedades, cada vez más envejecidas, sin embargo, discriminan a las personas mayores. El maltrato representa una manifestación extrema de esa discriminación. Es precisamente enmarcada entre esas dos coordenadas —la de la sociedad anciana y la de la sociedad edadista— donde se sitúa la perturbadora realidad objeto de este libro. Se aborda el tema desde un enfoque multidisciplinar (jurídico, social, de salud pública) que presta especial atención a la perspectiva de género. Se proyecta sobre él un profundo análisis sociojurídico a través de una investigación cualitativa desarrollada en Aragón entre profesionales de diversos ámbitos encargados de dar respuesta al problema.

Book Description
This volume presents both an analysis of how identities are built, represented and negotiated in narrative, as well as a theoretical reflection on the links between narrative discourse and identity construction. The data for the book are Mexican immigrants' personal experience narratives and chronicles of their border crossings into the United States. Embracing a view of identity as a construct firmly grounded in discourse and interaction, the author examines and illustrates the multiple threads that connect the local expression and negotiation of identity to the wider social contexts that frame the experience of migration, from material conditions of life in the United States to mainstream discourses about race and color. The analysis reveals how identities emerge in discourse through the interplay of different levels of expression, from implicit adherence to narrative styles and ways of telling, to explicit negotiation of membership categories.

The book examines how to analyse interaction and ideas expressed in focus groups.
