Kulturna ekologija, ki razlaga človeško kulturo na osnovi evolucijske teorije in s pomočjo ekoloških pojmov, pripiše književnosti v ekosistemu kulture posebno mesto in ekološko funkcijo. V pričujočem ...príspevku je na podlagi Zapfovega kulturnoekološkega funkcijskega modela književnosti predstavljen Geistrov roman Risarica (2012), v katerem so prepoznavne značilnosti kulturnokritičnega metadiskurza, imaginativnega protidiskurza in reintegrativnega interdiskurza. Geister se zavzema za neantropocentrično etiko narave, zagovorništvo narave razlaga v naravoslovnih esejih, strokovnih knjigah in člankih, na estetski način prihaja do izraza tudi v njegovih leposlovnih delih.

Too often, discussions of research ethics focus on the steps needed to avoid fraud or protect human subjects. These topics, while essential, are only a fraction of the considerations for ethical ...research, and excessive attention to them can obscure other important and meaningful decisions. Ethical dilemmas are inherent throughout the research process, from the choice about what to study and how to study it through to analysis and dissemination of findings. Attention to these considerations is especially important for researchers in social work who, by their professional discipline, code of ethics, or research foci are expected to demonstrate particular sensitivity to vulnerable populations, issues of social justice, conflicts of interest, and respect for dignity and privacy. Rooted in three workshops held during ECSWR since 2014, this paper examines the nature of embedded ethical dilemmas, with special attention to the challenges related to the principle of nonmaleficence and to the role of the researcher. In light of illustrative examples, the paper presents recommendations and resources to build ethical awareness and research integrity beyond regulatory compliance.
The article draws attention to the loss of contract power of people, especially those with mental disabilities. It shows a gap between policies and ideology of participation on the one hand and lived ...experiences of participation practices in the care proceedings' systems on the other. Users' participation seems to be a trademark of contemporary EU social policy or mental health policy, while children's participation is the most emphasised part of child-friendly justice discourse, but the question arises whether they really are in place. The national and European research projects conducted by the author and her colleagues in the last years are used to emphasise the most problematic points, but also innovative social work and advocacy practices. The central focus of the article is therefore the author's recent EU research project 'Access to Justice for Children with Mental Disabilities', which has addressed the participation of children with mental disabilities in all stages of the legal processes. In the case of Slovenia, these are mainly taking the place at centres of social work. The findings showed that in spite of the progress towards participation of children in general in social care decisions, children with mental disabilities remain virtually invisible.
