Essential Clinical Care for Sex Workers

Essential Clinical Care for Sex Workers

Auteure: Theodore R. Burnes, Phd , Jamila M. Dawson, Lmft

Nombre de pages: 194

An affirming and sex-positive guide to working with sex workers: uncovering clinical biases, creating safe spaces, and dismantling the whorearchy. Despite the wide range of sex work--from street-based to OnlyFans--clinicians too often focus on what they think sex workers need, instead of building trust, developing rapport, and really doing the work to understand the unique stressors that make quality mental health care essential for sex worker communities. Sex-positive therapists Theodore Burnes and Jamila Dawson break down everything that mental health providers need to know to work effectively with sex workers, while dispeling the tired, pervasive myths that continue to impact treatment today. Readers will learn about: Who sex workers are; different types of sex work; and sex workers’ specific therapy needs How outdated research methodology results in bad data and poor care The whorearchy--the sex-work hierarchy--and why we need to dismantle it How to recognize and move beyond personal biases How to provide effective, affirming, and better clinical care What words not to use--and what they reveal about the sexism, racism, misogyny, and transphobia embedded in our society (and...

As a collector of souls, Aysha spends her days guiding spirits of the dead to the Gates of Judgement. Her job was monotonous, nothing eventful ever happening, each day melding together. Aysha wished daily for something more than the dull repetition. Unfortunately, her wish came true but in the worst way possible. Invaders took over and blocked the Gates, so the dead are now unable to pass through them, wandering around, lost forever, unless Aysha can find a way to defeat the evil afoot.

The Micro-politics of Microcredit

The Micro-politics of Microcredit

Auteure: Mohammad Jasim Uddin

Nombre de pages: 267

Microcredit has been seen in recent decades as having great potential for aiding development in poor developing countries, with Bangladesh being one of the countries which has pioneered microcredit and implemented it most widely. This book, based on extensive original research, explores how microcredit works in practice, and assesses its effectiveness. It discusses how microcredit, usually channelled through women, is often passed to the men of the family, a practice disapproved of by some, but regarded as acceptable by borrowers who have a communal approach to debt, rather than viewing debt as something held by single individuals. The book demonstrates how the rules around microcredit are often seem as irksome by the borrowers, how lenders often charge high rates of interest and work primarily to preserve their institutions, thereby going against the spirit of the microcredit movement, and how borrowers often end up on a downward spiral, deeper and deeper in debt. Overall, the book argues that although microcredit does much good, it also has many drawbacks.
