The main purpose of this book is not only to present recent studies and advances in the field of social science research, but also to stimulate discussion on related practical issues concerning statistics, mathematics, and economics. Accordingly, a broad range of tools and techniques that can be used to solve problems on these topics are presented in detail in this book, which offers an ideal reference work for all researchers interested in effective quantitative and qualitative tools. The content is divided into three major sections. The first, which is titled “Social work”, collects papers on problems related to the social sciences, e.g. social cohesion, health, and digital technologies. Papers in the second part, “Education and teaching issues,” address qualitative aspects, education, learning, violence, diversity, disability, and ageing, while the book’s final part, “Recent trends in qualitative and quantitative models for socio-economic systems and social work”, features contributions on both qualitative and quantitative issues.The book is based on a scientific collaboration, in the social sciences, mathematics, statistics, and economics, among experts from the “Pablo de Olavide” University of Seville (Spain), the “University of Defence” of Brno (Czech Republic), the “G. D’Annunzio” University of Chieti-Pescara (Italy) and “Alexandru Ioan Cuza University” of Iaşi (Romania). The contributions, which have been selected using a peer-review process, examine a wide variety of topics related to the social sciences in general, while also highlighting new and intriguing empirical research conducted in various countries. Given its scope, the book will appeal, in equal measure, to sociologists, mathematicians, statisticians and philosophers, and more generally to scholars and specialists in related fields.

Hoy, más que nunca, es indispensable reflexionar y enfatizar la necesidad de un cambio en la intervención social con respecto al desarrollo sostenible de la ciudadanía global, haciendo hincapié en el crecimiento y el empoderamiento de las personas, orientado a promover la inclusión social y la igualdad de oportunidades, sobre todo en los colectivos en riesgos de exclusión social. Para crear un camino de desarrollo sostenible global auspiciado por los principios de una democracia social, es crucial generar un tejido productivo de actuación política contextualizada, priorizando nuevas acciones prosociales de cara a reforzar las vulnerabilidades estructurales presentes a escala global.La presente obra, guiada por la sensibilidad académica, profesional y humana de sus autores, pretende ser una pequeña contribución en la construcción de un camino de equidad en el bienestar social, elemento clave para la implementación efectiva de acciones geopolíticas sostenibles y de progreso social contextualizadas en escenarios de intervención microsocial. Reflexionando sobre las dinámicas y los desafíos de la globalización que afectan el desarrollo humano, se plantea un marco metodológico innovador a fin de observar e investigar los fenómenos de la marginalidad.

La violencia filioparental es un fenómeno emergente y que aún tiene pocas propuestas me-todológicas para la intervención en nuestro país. Esta obra aporta una visión innovadora que arroja una propuesta contrastada por autores que, en el ámbito de su trabajo en centros de menores, se acercan a la realidad del menor de forma dinámica y académica.A lo largo de este libro desarrollamos una propuesta metodológica de intervención por parte de los profesionales de la intervención social con aquellos menores que cometen el delito de violencia filioparental y se les aplica, entre otras, la medida de convivencia con grupo educativo. Dirigido sobre todo a profesionales y estudiantes de aquellas profesiones sociales que en este ámbito trabajen codo con codo con el perfil de menores catalogados en el ámbito de centros de protección o de reforma o como menores no acompañados.
