This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: financial system critique social justice, CONCEPT 1 - OTHERS For every “we” there is “them,” the excluded others, CONCEPT 2 - HUMAN INTERDEPENDENCE human beings naturally mature to interdependence rather than independence Recognition of a right to a self-constructed identity allows us to see the individual child as struggling to achieve autonomy, not independence. needs “to be” and the need “to become.” This is what we refer to as the child’s right to a self-constructed identity. The notion of a selfconstructed identity draws upon the child’s need for both autonomy and connectedness. CONCEPT3 INDIVIDUALIST FOCUS OF WESTERN LAW the complementary lenses of therapeutic jurisprudence, preventive law, family systems theory,and culture, support our contention that we need to re-conceive human rights to include an understanding of interdependence–an understanding that recognizes that the “rights” as well as the needs and interests of children and parents generally are intertwined. It thus makes no sense to speak of them as always dichotomous, or worse, as always opposed to each other. CONCEPT 4 DEFINITION OF FAMILY the whole is greater than the sum of the parts–a family is not simply a collection of individuals, but has qualities that belong to the whole family as an entity. For this purpose, family must be defined in a broad manner, using bonds of intimacy rather than blood ties (Brooks, 1996; Ronen, 2004).Mutual interaction means that any conduct by one family member will affect the other members of the family, and the family as a whole. Shared responsibility means that every family member plays a role in what occurs within a family. CONCEPT 5 PROCEDURAL JUSTICE ????
