Este libro aborda una temática novedosa y de gran actualidad: la vinculación de las mujeres con los discursos de paz a lo largo de la historia. Se inicia con las primeras conceptualizaciones que definen y representan la paz como mujer en la sociedad griega clásica y culmina con las aportaciones de pensadoras contemporáneas. A lo largo de los diversos capítulos se analizan los conceptos, formas y lenguajes que han vinculado la paz con las mujeres en las distintas etapas históricas, tanto en textos escritos como en manifestaciones artísticas, la apropiación particular de esos discursos por parte de las mujeres y sus formas diferentes de pensarla y expresarla. Este libro cubre un vacío al ofrecer una reflexión de conjunto sobre el significado de los discursos que conceptualizan y representan la paz como mujer en sociedades patriarcales, las razones de su pervivencia en la cultura occidental y el giro que se produce cuando las mujeres se convierten en pensadoras de paz.

Exploring the role of the incest prohibition in human societies

"ON REPENTANCE applies an ancient framework of repentance and repair to our personal lives today, to the contemporary public square, to institutions, and to national policy in ways that could transform our society and our culture"--

Die Wirkungen der sozialen Medien sind besonders in Bezug auf das religiöse Engagement und die religiösen Praktiken junger Menschen zu beobachten ¿ die heute unter Begriffen wie ¿Internetgeneration¿, ¿Mediengeneration¿ oder ¿Digital Natives¿ zusammengefasst werden. Online-Medien üben großen Einfluss auf ihr Leben, ihr Weltverständnis, ihre religiösen Orientierungen und Handlungen aus. Ihre Identitätskonstruktionen, ihre kulturellen und religiösen Orientierungen sind aufs Engste mit sozialen Medien verflochten. Genau hier setzte die vorliegende Studie mit der Frage an, welche subjektiven Konsequenzen die Interaktion im Social Web für religiöse Orientierungen, Praktiken und Selbstentwürfe muslimischer Jugendlicher in Österreich hat. Dabei standen die Zusammenhänge zwischen Mediennutzung, medialen Islambildern und gelebter Religiosität im Mittelpunkt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen einerseits, dass der Umgang mit Social Media objek­tive Möglichkeitsräume schafft, die mit einer Erweiterung individueller Handlungsspielräume einhergehen können, wobei religiöse Autorität zunehmend hinterfragt wird. Andererseits geht aus der Studie ebenfalls hervor, dass die Nutzung digitaler Medien auch zur Verengung individueller religiöser Orientierungen führen kann.

Taking the Goki-Shichido (Five Home Provinces and Seven Circuits of Ancient Japan) as a theoretical framework, this book examines shrinking Japan from a regional variation perspective by municipality along the ancient Tokaido, which comprises 15 provinces, and seven prefectures today. The study identifies the principal explanatory factors based on the small area data of e-Stat through GPS statistical software tools such as G-census and EvaCva, within a historical perspective. This historical knowledge helps in understanding the significance of the regional cultural heritage that remains in each municipality today. The book pays special attention to municipal variations within the same prefecture, presenting a completely unique approach from what other researchers have pursued.This volume studies two present-day prefectures along the ancient Tokaido for detailed analyses of the impacts of regional variations of population decline in Japan. They are Shizuoka Prefecture, made upof the former Tootoumi, Suruga, and Izu provinces, and Mie Prefecture, formed by the ancient provinces of Iga, Ise, Shima, and the eastern part of Kii as examples to show the impacts of municipal power on regional variations of shrinking Japan. The reasons for selecting these two prefectures of the ancient Tokaido are twofold. First, they are made up of a multiple number of the ancient provinces. Second, other prefectures that fall under the Tokaido have been studied in the previous works of the present author by adopting the same methods of analyses. Thus, by presenting unique analyses of regional variations on small municipal levels, with demographic variables, social indicators, and historical identities of municipalities in Shizuoka and Mie prefectures along the Tokaido, this book offers suggestions for effective regional policy to revitalize shrinking Japan to a sustainable one.

This book is about the cold hard facts of life. Bringing to existence reality through poetry. These poems are survival tools that supported me throughout life's hardships. They are about the love, heartache, loss and struggles that I have experienced. Sharing what I went through has helped me heal, my hope is that others will feel as though they are not alone in their struggle. When you read these poems, if anything enjoy them in the spirit in which they were intended.

In den vergangenen drei Jahrzehnten sind die Anteile befristeter Beschäftigungsverhältnisse bei jungen Erwachsenen in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und in anderen spätkapitalistischen Gesellschaften deutlich angestiegen. Eingebettet in fortdauernde Trends einer Verringerung wohlfahrtsstaatlicher Sicherungsstandards hat diese Entwicklung dazu beigetragen, dass sich Übergänge in stabile berufliche Karrieren und planbare private Zukunftsgestaltungen diversifizieren und verzögern. In der vorliegenden Studie wird eine soziologische Erklärung der Auswirkungen befristeter Beschäftigung auf private und partnerschaftliche Zukunftsgestaltungen von jungen Erwachsenen theoriegeleitet ausgearbeitet und empirisch überprüft. Da mit der Ausweitung befristeter Beschäftigung das klassische männliche Ernährermodell in Begründungsnot gerät, so die zentrale These, werden Neuaushandlungen von Geschlechterrollenarrangements in jungen Partnerschaften erforderlich. Nicht allein sozioökonomische Risiken imKontext befristeter Beschäftigung, auch die sich wandelnden geschlechter- und erwerbsbezogenen Rollenerwartungen wirken sich verzögernd auf private und partnerschaftliche Zukunftsgestaltungen aus.Die Studie richtet sich an Forschende, Lehrende und Studierende der Soziologie, Politikwissenschaft, Psychologie und in benachbarten sozialwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen. Ebenso adressiert sie methodisch versierte Praktiker*

Vulnerability is not a fixed state; people and families can move in and out of experiencing vulnerability throughout their lives. All families are at risk of experiencing vulnerability at some point, which means that social workers and other professionals must be equipped with the skills to effectively provide them with support. Working with Families Experiencing Vulnerability: A Partnership Approach provides a comprehensive, evidence-based guide to family-centred practice for the social work, human services, health and education professions. This edition has been comprehensively revised and features new chapters on working with families affected by natural disasters, families experiencing poverty, M¿ori families, LGBTQIA+ families and families where a parent has an intellectual disability. Emphasis is placed on promoting a rights-based, relational approach to working with children and young people, who are most at risk of experiencing vulnerability. Each chapter includes case studies, reflective questions and activities.

Dieses Buch ist eine ethnografische Studie zur Praxis der Kinderwunschbehandlung, in der Paare und Ärzt:innen versuchen, eine Schwangerschaft herbeizuführen. Es gibt detaillierte Einblicke in eine soziomaterielle Praxis, die sich von der Lebenswelt der Paare über ärztliche Beratungsgespräche bis in Laboratorien erstreckt. Die Studie zeigt ein soziales Feld von Praktiken und Sinnstiftungen im hybriden Schnittpunkt der lebensweltlichen Erwartungen an das Kinderkriegen einerseits, der technischen Eigenlogik reproduktionsmedizinischer Verfahren andererseits. Dabei stellt sich heraus, dass gerade diese besondere Form der Herstellung von Kindern, Familien und Elternschaft den Prozess der Familiengründung transparent macht: Interaktionen, die sonst nur in Schlafzimmern stattfinden, unbeobachtete Prozesse im Inneren von Körpern und Aushandlungen einer schwer zugänglichen Intimkommunikation werden hier expliziert und dadurch soziologisch zugänglich. Dies ermöglicht einen Beitrag zu einer verstehenden Familiensoziologie, die die menschliche Fortpflanzung mit einem ganzheitlichen Blick auf biotechnische Prozesse, kulturelle Diskurse und subjektive Perspektiven begreift und auf neue theoretische Grundlagen stellt: Weder schließen sich Natürlichkeit und Technizität reproduktionsmedizinischer Vorgänge aus - sie stehen in einem Verhältnis wechselseitiger Steigerung -, noch sind die alltäglichen Formen des Zeugens und Kinderkriegens frei von Kulturtechniken.

A gold-digger is often associated with a marriage or attractiveness based on high status and wealth. Images abound where an alluring woman (or women) is seen in loving embrace with her well-off, older (sometimes much older) beau, fiance or husband. It is notably a relationship grounded on avarice and false love, rather than on true love. It is precisely here where the similarities with a "chapiadora" begin and end in this book, since I provide a rather different, more nuanced conceptualization of this personality.To delve into the world and mind, and heart of a "chapiadora" is to transcend a particular country, culture, subculture, gender, and even class or age. What is revealed in this book points to a much more complex and often harmful world phenomenon that too many of us are unwilling to discuss out of fear or embarrassment.This short story purports to be a true-to-life account. It takes a deep look into the behavior and mind-set of a "chapiadora", which, when studied side by side, I call the "Anatomy of a chapiadora". It is my sincere hope that this short account will be useful in averting emotional and economic upheaval in people's lives.

" J'ai cherché dans mes précédentes études la place que la femme a occupée dans les sociétés qui ont laissé leur influence sur notre civilisation. Je termine aujourd'hui mon travail par un ouvrage qui a pour objet la condition de la femme française dans les temps modernes. Les quatre premiers chapitres de ce livre disent ce qu'a été la femme dans la vie domestique, intellectuelle, sociale et politique de notre pays, depuis le XVIe siècle jusqu'au XVIIIe inclusivement. En pénétrant dans les vieux foyers français je m'applique surtout à retrouver les principes sur lesquels repose la famille. Dans cette partie de mon oeuvre, j'interroge les personnes qui ont vécu dans ces trois siècles, je recueille leurs témoignages, ces témoignages que nous livrent particulièrement les mémoires domestiques, les correspondances privées, tous les documents intimes auxquels notre époque attache justement un si grand prix. Pour étudier la part qu'a eue la femme dans notre vie littéraire et artistique, je ne me suis arrêtée qu'aux modèles qui représentent vraiment une influence. Je m'y suis longuement attardée, comme le voyageur qui, après avoir rapidement traversé les plaines, s'arrête aux cimes des montagnes. Quant au rôle historique des femmes françaises, je n'y ai cherché que les éléments de ce problème très actuel: Dans notre pays, la femme est-elle apte à la vie politique ?"

Engaging with representations in literature, film, governmental discourse, and news and infotainment media, this book investigates the ways in which Aboriginal children figure in Australia's cultural life, to mediate Australians' ambivalence about the colonial origins of the nation, as well as its possible post-colonial future.

This book provides a focused discussion of how families are governed through technologies. It shows how states attempt to influence, shape and govern families as both the source of and solution to a range of social problems including crime.The book critically reviews family governance in contemporary neo-liberal society, notably through technologies of self-responsibilisation, biologisation, and artificial intelligence. The book draws attention to the poor working class and racialised families that often are marked out and evaluated as culpable, dysfunctional, and a threat to economic and social order, obscuring the structural inequalities that underpin family lives and discriminations that are built into the tools that identify and govern families.Filling a gap where disciplinary perspectives cross-cut, this book brings together sociological and criminological perspectives to provide a unique cross-disciplinary approach to the topic. It will be of interest to researchers, scholars and lecturers studying sociology and criminology, as well as policy-makers and professionals working in the fields of early years and family intervention programmes, including in social work, health, education, and the criminologically-relevant professions such as police and probation.

This book studies the relevance of dowry as a customary practice in Indian marriages. It examines the historical articulation between traditional cultural texts and modern statutory law to understand how daughters are valued, and how dowry as a custom defines this value.

This book analyses what is at stake in the regulation of cross-border marriages and how European states use particular categories (e.g., 'sham', 'forced' and 'mixed' marriages) to differentiate between acceptable and non-acceptable marriages.

One of the most important books ever written on domestic violence, Coercive Control breaks through entrenched views of physical abuse that have ultimately failed to protect women. Evan Stark, founder of one of America's first battered women's shelters, shows how "e;domestic violence"e; is neither primarily domestic nor necessarily violent, but a pattern of controlling behaviors more akin to terrorism and hostage-taking. Drawing on court records, interviews, and FBI statistics, Stark details coercive strategies that men use to deny women their very personhood, from "e;beeper games"e; to food logs to micromanaging dress, speech, sexual activity, and work. Stark urges us to move beyond the injury model and focus on the real victimization that allows men to violate women's human rights with impunity. Provocative and brilliantly argued, Coercive Control reframes abuse as a liberty crime rather than a crime of assault and points the way to bringing "e;real"e; equality for women in line with their formal rights to personhood and citizenship, freedom and safety.

This book considers the impact of digital media and technology on lived experience for young people in foster care. While the extent and intricacies of foster care-known as out-of-home care (OOHC) in Australia, where this study takes place-are not widely understood by the general public, youth in care might struggle to construct a personal identity that goes beyond reflecting the stereotypes and stigma by which they are often recognised. In today's digital environment, media can play a significant role in any individual's developing sense of self, identity, and belonging. Deitz and Sheridan Burns examine OOHC through the lens of networked media environments and investigate the conditions that encourage belonging and resilience in order to establish the role that digital technology can play in supporting those conditions for individuals, family networks, and the care sector.
