In the context of Southern Europe, women's rights have been facing historical resistance linked to a legacy of dictatorships, fascism, and Catholicism. Wider processes of modernization have gradually challenged this legacy, causing a significant impact on the mobilization for women's rights. This article explores feminist collective action in Italy and Portugal in the 21st century, including pro-choice struggles connected to abortion in Portugal and the mobilizations against gender-based violence in Italy. In each country dominant themes and repertoires of collective action will be studied, as well as sources of internal conflict that include surrogacy and sex work. In the last section of the paper, we suggest that self-determination is a key concept through which contemporary feminist movements may overcome emerging political and theoretical challenges.

Organization, in this paper, is considered as a system of symbolic translation regarding the collusive dynamic of context. The organizational activity; outcome oriented, is based on collusive dynamic, historically founding the context. According to this theory, the Italian organization of mental health will be analyzed, during the following three periods: 1) just before the Italian Law 180 approval, 2) during its application, 3) and the current period, with its proposal of change of the law. The three phases will be related with historical culture, in Italy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper focuses on three models for citizens' participation in health (Italy, Great Britain, and Brazil). After discussing the strengths and weakness of the three experiences, the study presents a comparative analysis, highlighting convergences and variations in relation to the main characteristics of social participation in the health sector: (a) organization and composition of health councils; (b) functions played by citizens' representatives (decision-making, advisory, or social control or oversight); and (c) approaches to community participation. The paper then focuses on two critical points emerging from the analysis of experiences with community participation: the issue of representativeness and the difficulty experienced by representatives of health services users in influencing the decision-making by system managers.

This study deepens the discussion about the concept of health constructed by Christophe Dejours and the one perceived by families who are descended from Italian immigrants who are agricultural workers at the Fourth Colony of Italian Immigration, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. In this paper, the concept of health is discussed viewing the academic and popular knowledge. As the study develops, it is possible to perceive the occurrence of an approximation of the author's thoughts with the families descending from Italian immigrants regarding health and work. Among the elements that confirm this closeness is the fact that only the human being himself is able to establish the limits between normal and pathological.
