    In view of the prospect of economic globalization, its undemocratic nature, the increase of social injustice in the world and the priority in education to adapt students to their demands, I understand that today more than ever, we must return to the Platonic pedagogy that in its interpersonal characteristic, only wishes to encourage the induction of the idea of goodness in people waking up at the same time their critical awareness. This pedagogy could be the perfec instrument to meet today's economic and educational needs, so that society, far from being the correlative of globalization, could modulate economic parameters to achieve greater justice in the world.Ante la perspectiva económica de la globalización, su carácter antidemocrático, el aumento de la injusticia social en el mundo que está provocando y la prioridad en educación en adaptar a los alumnos a sus exigencias, entiendo que hoy más que nunca, debemos volver a la pedagogía platónica que, en su intrínseco carácter interpersonal, sólo desea fomentar la inducción de la idea de bondad, desarrollando a su vez el sentido crítico. Esta pedagogía es el instrumento que cumpliría exactamente con las necesidades económicas y educativas actuales, para que la sociedad, lejos de ser el correlato tecnológico de la globalización, fuese quien modulase los parámetros económicos para conseguir una mayor justicia en el mundo

    La custodia compartida de los hijos e hijas, que nace del entendimiento y acuerdo de las partes tras la separación o divorcio, supone una corresponsabilidad en los cuidados de los menores y un reparto equitativo de los tiempos de convivencia que redunda en beneficio de los mismos al permitirles mantener un contacto continuo con ambos progenitores. Por ello se hace imprescindible una Ley Estatal de Custodia Compartida que potencie la mediación familiar como el mejor de los escenarios para pactar custodias compartidas satisfactorias.Joint custody of children, which stems from an understanding and agreement between both parties in a separation or divorce, involves shared childcare responsibilities and an equal distribution of living time which is in the children’s benefit since it allows them to maintain continuous contact with both parents. To this end a State Law on Joint Custody is indispensable since it potentiates family mediation as the best stage for arranging satisfactory joint custody

    Community-oriented Service-Learning: A university experience for preventing cannabis abuse in vulnerable adolescents and young people

    Learning integrated into community action promotes a more active citizenry. More specifically, service-learning (S-L) embedded into higher education can represent a big challenge yet also an opportunity to involve the whole university community in social and community development. This paper addresses this teaching method by identifiying and reviewing the different components that define S-L, that is: civic engagement, social responsibility, civic education, partnership, and reflection. The ways in which S-L can be introduced into the curriculum are explained, through detailing experiences already carried out in the teaching of psychology. Current available data on its efficacy in university education are analyzed. The focus now turns to a university experience involving Community Psychology students across Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. During this experience, students on both programmes make their final-year projects to develop a prevention resource aimed at young people at high risk of problematic cannabis use. Ultimately, this program not only teaches students the principles of Community Psychology but also give them an opportunity to put them into practice
