Abstract:
This chapter describes characteristics of a developmental perspective on substance use regarding age curves; heterogeneity in course; embeddedness within all else that is changing developmentally and historically; and a life course emphasis on distal upstream predictors and downstream consequences as well as more proximal developmental mechanisms and consequences, including transitions, turning points, and developmental disturbances. The chapter then describes the developmental and historical context of adolescence and the transition to adulthood, followed by a consideration of key conceptual issues related to developmental continuity, discontinuity, and transitions. Next, it examines implications for understanding risk and protective factors for, and consequences of, substance use during adolescence and the transition to adulthood. it concludes with a discussion of opportunities and challenges for future research.

Abstract:
This chapter explores how independent women filmmakers use genre. Examining Girlfight (2000) and Real Women Have Curves (2002), it foregrounds strategies by which genres are deployed, combined, and remade in order to tell women's stories. The desire to tell women's stories has been formative for diverse traditions of feminist and feminist-informed filmmaking. Such filmmaking is often driven by a realist impulse, a perception that Hollywood/genre cinema trades in fantasized images of women that bear little correspondence to actual women's lives. In using genre to tell such stories, these films foreground contradictions between realist and generic codes, suggesting a number of questions. For instance, how far can a film shift the presentation of women's lives from those usually associated with a genre before it effectively becomes a parody? Can realist (rather than fantastic) feminist filmmaking itself be understood as generic, defined by its commitment to telling women's stories? How might such a genre relate to the “woman's film,” that mode of Hollywood production defined as much by its intended audience as by content? In addressing these questions, the chapter argues that genre has proved both productive and constraining for women filmmakers.

Abstract:
If post-communist countries realized marketized bank–state ties through transition and international pressure to privatize their banks with foreign capital, western Eurozone states have more recently come under pressure to follow suit. European Banking Union centralized bank supervision and introduced a single resolution board at the expense of national authority. Thus under banking union, national regulatory and supervisory forbearance was curbed; barriers to banking market entry were no longer the purview of national authorities; disproportionate bank lending to one’s own sovereign would be discouraged; and bank bondholders, creditors and depositors—i.e. market actors—paid the price for bank failures first, before governments and taxpayers. While European Banking Union put the euro on stronger foundations, it also curbed national economic policy discretion and limited tools for adjustment. Taking Italy, Portugal, Spain and Germany as examples, this chapter explains why and in what policy areas Eurozone states’ sovereignty clashed with banking union.

Abstract:
Despite their academic preparation and lived experiences, new school social workers face a learning curve when moving from entry-level practice to proficiency. The Art of Being Indispensable: What School Social Workers Need to Know in Their First Three Years of Practice is the first book focusing specifically on the needs of new school social workers as they transition to this complex role. Each of the book’s 20 chapters features an academic scholar and at least one school social work practitioner; overall, there are 18 academics and 42 practitioners from 28 different states. The diversity of the authors’ experiences, representing all variations of schools and districts, ensures that the content is applicable to a variety of practice contexts. Each chapter addresses the challenges of a public health pandemic and the impact of racial injustice. There is a timeless quality to this text since every year, new school social workers are being hired, whether from master of social work and bachelor of social work programs or from the ranks of professional social workers changing fields and becoming school social workers. This indispensable guide will help new school social workers to effectively execute their roles and responsibilities.

Abstract:
From its 1790 founding until 1974, Washington, D.C.--capital of "the land of the free"--lacked democratically elected city leadership. Fed up with governance dictated by white stakeholders, federal officials, and unelected representatives, local D.C. activists catalyzed a new phase of the fight for home rule. Amid the upheavals of the 1960s, they gave expression to the frustrations of black residents and wrestled for control of their city. Bringing together histories of the carceral and welfare states, as well as the civil rights and Black Power movements, Lauren Pearlman narrates this struggle for self-determination in the nation’s capital. She captures the transition from black protest to black political power under the Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon administrations and against the backdrop of local battles over the War on Poverty and the War on Crime. Through intense clashes over funds and programming, Washington residents pushed for greater participatory democracy and community control. However, the anticrime apparatus built by the Johnson and Nixon administrations curbed efforts to achieve true home rule. As Pearlman reveals, this conflict laid the foundation for the next fifty years of D.C. governance, connecting issues of civil rights, law and order, and urban renewal.

Abstract:
Although palliative and hospice care services are increasingly available, many adults and children still die without this kind of support or receive it only in the last few days of life, as many patients, family members, and clinicians equate the initiation of these services with loss of hope. This chapter presents a model of how hopeful patterns of thinking and a balance of positive and negative affect may facilitate a regoaling process in which individuals transition from cure-seeking goals to other personally meaningful goals that are attainable at the end of life or while living with a serious chronic illness. Understanding different forms of hopeful thinking, goals, and self-concepts among dying patients and their families can help clinicians provide support through this difficult experience and achieve better quality of life and symptom management for patients and better quality of life and long-term adjustment for family members.

Abstract:
This book is a concise step-by-step ready reference manual which will help interns transition smoothly to life in the operating room (OR) as anesthesiology residents within the first few months. This survival guide will flatten the learning curve and improve the comfort level of trainees entering the OR for the first time. This Anesthesiology CA-1 Pocket Survival Guide, highlights information to seek out during the orientation period and lays out what to expect in the first clinical anesthesia year. It provides residents with easy-to-follow instructions for such common tasks as patient evaluation and pre-anesthesia care, and suggests how to obtain and organize a patient’s preoperative information to present to the attending anesthesiologist. The handbook also guides residents and trainees through the perioperative period and addresses crisis management as well as post-anesthesia care. The fundamentals of anesthesiology practice as well as specialty practice situations such as providing anesthesia in remote locations are introduced to the beginning anesthesiology resident. Time management and preparation for the anesthesiology BASIC examination and suggestions on how to strike a healthy work- life balance to avoid burn out early on in training are all laid out. The concept of continuous quality improvement focusing on improving the provision of care from one episode to the next is introduced to the learner. This book provides the foundation for a sound beginning in anesthesiology training.

Abstract:
La pandemia mundial, que provocó la suspensión de las clases presenciales en particular en nuestra universidad, nos obligó a continuar con nuestra tarea docente, pero en una modalidad virtual. Las actividades que llevamos a cabo para dar continuidad pedagógica es lo que algunos autores han llamado Educación Remota de Emergencia, dado que no fue una elección en la cual pudimos planificar, sino una obligación por el acontecimiento, una forma de sobrevivir en una época de crisis con los recursos con los que contábamos. Tuvimos que adaptarnos afrontando la situación de diversas maneras: de acuerdo a conocimientos previos, dispositivos disponibles, capacitaciones tomadas en forma apresurada (talleres, cursos, conferencias, webinarios, entre otros), contextos familiares, entre otras variables que fueron apareciendo, para continuar con nuestra labor. Esta situación, que comenzó en el primer semestre de 2020 y siguió de la misma manera durante el año 2021 (y posiblemente modifique la manera de trabajar con los estudiantes), hizo que revisemos y modifiquemos distintos aspectos de nuestras prácticas educativas, desde los contenidos, la metodología, la evaluación y el uso de recursos tecnológicos, entre otros. Los estudiantes universitarios que cursaron materias de primer año durante 2021, egresaron de la escuela media con la modalidad virtual y los estudiantes que cursaron materias de segundo año, transitaron su primer año universitario, también de manera virtual. Esta situación puso de manifiesto la difícil tarea que tuvimos que realizar los docentes de Ciencias Básicas y de Matemática para Ingeniería en nuestra práctica educativa, en medio del contexto atípico. Con el objetivo de recuperar el trabajo realizado por los mencionados docentes (silencioso en su mayoría) y que los mismos sean compartidos y visibilizados, se realizó este Encuentro de Docentes de Ciencias Básicas. La realización del mismo tuvo como actividad central tres sesiones de debate, repartidas a lo largo de dos jornadas. Se presentaron 17 trabajos en los cuales los docentes-autores compartieron tanto sus experiencias como sus reflexiones sobre los distintos aspectos que los atravesaron. Asimismo, se realizó una Mesa de Debate bajo el título “Educación en pandemia y desafíos a futuro”, en la que expusieron docentes invitados.

Abstract:
The EBA Guidelines on loan origination and monitoring (hereinafter "GL LOM") undoubtedly represent a substantially new piece of the banking regulatory framework. In fact, for the first time, the regulator moves into a topic that was traditionally outside the scope of financial regulation, so far almost exclusively focused on aspects directly linked to both micro- and macro-prudential stability, notably through capital and liquidity management requirements and guidelines on Business Model and Internal Governance. The credit management process, and in particular loan origination and monitoring, has always been typically considered as a business issue under sole responsibility of banks, as it is considered one of the "core" processes (if not the "core" process) of the banking business. As a matter of fact, since the issue of the capital requirement regulation (i.e., Basel II and Basel III), and the introduction of the use requirements for the rating systems, the regulator moved very close, but not yet, to prescribe specific credit assessment criteria, while dictating methodological and organizational requirements for the authorization of the rating systems, and leaving substantial freedom to banks to define their own models and embedded assessment criteria and indicators. With the GL LOM, the regulator takes a further step, remarkably beyond its traditional remit, dictating principles and rules for the evaluation of the credit quality of borrowers. The starting point for this new approach from the regulator can be found in the ECB guidelines on Non-Performing Loans, later endorsed by the Bank of Italy Guidelines for Less Significant Banks, aimed at encouraging banks to define their NPL management processes and establish reduction plans to achieve NPL ratio targets in line with the regulator's expectations. Consistently with the focus on NPL, the regulation on Calendar Provisioning, amending the CRR was issued; as being a Regulation, it involves all banks, and not only significant ones (for which the ECB Addendum also applies). In addition, the new definition of default (the so-called "new Dod") has defined stricter criteria for the transition of exposures to the default status and also made the return of "cured" exposures to the performing status more difficult. The combined effect of these regulatory changes has been to make the default of counterparties not only more probable but also much more "expensive" for the banks. The natural “next step” of these regulatory changes was to "move backward" into the management process covering loan origination and monitoring . The EBA's stated objective with the issuance of the GL LOM is to define "robust and prudent" standards of lending practices so as to maintain a low level of NPLs in the future. Therefore, the focus of the GL LOM is the definition of requirements (some outlined as prescriptions, others in terms of principles) for the creditworthiness assessment of counterparties and for the management of the related data and information. Notwithstanding the fact that the Final Report has articulated the principle of proportionality much more clearly as compared to the Consultation Paper, the GLs set out three macro-categories of counterparties for which specific requirements are defined: • Individuals • Micro and small businesses • Medium and large companies. The GL LOM also provide recommendations about the valuation of guarantees both at origination and during ongoing monitoring, encouraging the use of advanced statistical models. The GL LOM focus on real estate guarantees, while financial collateral is outside the scope of the GL LOM. In the mind of the regulator, the GL LOM should not only reflect industry practices, but also incorporate the latest supervisory guidance on lending, and provide the stimulus to include ESG, AML/CTF and the use of innovative technologies into banking origination and, where applicable, monitoring processes.
