Book Synopsis Families and Family Values in Society and Culture by : Isabelle Albert
Download or read book Families and Family Values in Society and Culture written by Isabelle Albert and published by IAP. This book was released on 2021-05-01 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book which has been created in the framework of the EU-funded COST Action INTERFASOL brings together researchers from 22 INTERFASOL countries, who frame intergenerational family solidarity in the specific historical, cultural, social and economic context of their own country. Integrating different perspectives from social and political sciences, economics, communication, health and psychology, the book offers country-specific knowledge and new insights into family relations, family values and family policies across Europe. Praise for Families and Family Values in Society and Culture: "This comprehensive study of families in Europe reveals the strength and variation in family solidarity and values. By drawing together detailed descriptions of continuity and change, Families and Family Values in Society and Culture provides a fascinating account of the social and cultural contexts that shape European family life. The case studies of families in different European countries compare demographic and welfare regimes to consider the challenges facing generations in Europe and responses to these. The book is an invaluable resource for researchers studying family life and inter-generational solidarity." Clare Holdsworth Professor of Social Geography Keele University "This book is based on the testimony of experts, each of them proposing analyses which are specific to their own society. It provides an opportunity for the reader to take a new look at the evolution of intergenerational solidarity in 22 countries, whose wealth, welfare systems, and demographic situations, as well as recent events (wars, migratory movements, …) offer specific challenges. It adopts the perspective of the insider to shed light not only on culture and values in each country, but also on conflicts between tradition and modernity, and between subcultures in the same society. The book thus allows better understanding of changes in intergenerational and gender relations, and the variety of solutions implemented or suggested to promote more satisfactory expressions of intergenerational solidarity for the next decade. Families and Family Values in Society and Culture provides an invaluable contribution for cross-cultural and social sciences researchers interested in understanding how different forms of solidarity arise from family and social dynamics." Anne Marie Fontaine Professor of Psychology University of Porto

Book Synopsis Cohabitation, Family & Society by : Tiziana Nazio
Download or read book Cohabitation, Family & Society written by Tiziana Nazio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-01-17 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the process of the diffusion of cohabitation in Europe and discusses its impact upon fundamental changes in family formation. It makes use of highly dynamic statistical modelling that takes into account both changes occurring along the life course (individuals’ biographies) and across birth cohorts of individuals (generational change) in a comparative perspective. It is thus innovative methodologically, but is written in such a way as to be easily readable by those with little knowledge of quantitative methods. The approach proposed is empirically tested on a selection of European countries: the social democratic Sweden, the conservative-corporatist France and West Germany, the former socialist East Germany, and the familistic Italy and Spain. The theory and its application are described in a clear and simple manner, making the arguments and their illustrations accessible to those from a variety of disciplines. The study shows evidence of the ‘contagiousness’ of cohabitation, providing new insights on a process relevant to many social science debates. It is thus directed to those interested in the mechanisms driving social and cultural change, the nature of demographic changes, as well as diffusion processes.

Book Synopsis Civil Society and the Family by : Muddiman, Esther
Download or read book Civil Society and the Family written by Muddiman, Esther and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2020-10-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between the family and civil society has always been complex, with the family often regarded as separate from, or even oppositional to, civil society. Taking a fresh empirical approach, Muddiman, Power and Taylor reveal how such separation underestimates the important role the family plays in civil society. Considering the impact of family events, dinner table debates, intergenerational transmission of virtues and the role of the mother, this enlightening book draws on survey data from 1000 young people, a sample of their parents and grandparents, and extended family interviews, to uncover how civil engagement, activism and political participation are inherited and fostered within the home.

Book Synopsis The Family, Education and Society by : Frank Musgrove
Download or read book The Family, Education and Society written by Frank Musgrove and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1966 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative study the author challenges many contemporary assumptions about the modern family, the circumstances of home life which lead to academic success and the proper relationship between home and school. The modern family is not 'in decline'; its history is a success story. It is stable, unsociable, emotionally potent. Over the past three centuries it has turned its back on society. It is less remarkable for rebellious children than for the remorseless pressures it can exert upon the young, particularly for 'success' in the school system. In the home-centred society the school is an extension of the home, created in its image. Academic success seems most certain when the 'good home' and the 'good school' form a determined alliance. The combined pressures of home and school often seem to produce withdrawn, self-disparaging and negative young men and women. The author argues that the good school must counter-act many of the influences of the good home and that the educational system must re-order its affairs so that it is able to encourage and assess achievement which comes from joy rather than neurotic drive.

Book Synopsis Children in a Violent Society by : Joy D. Osofsky
Download or read book Children in a Violent Society written by Joy D. Osofsky and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 1997-03-28 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's children are bombarded with images of violence in cartoons, news reports, television shows, computer games, movies, and other media. In growing numbers, they are also exposed to real-life violence in their own homes and communities--as witnesses, victims, and, increasingly, perpetrators. Too often, children learn that violence is an acceptable way to resolve conflict. Yet even as the problem escalates, our society spends little effort finding viable solutions beyond incarceration-an after-the-problem approach. Emphasizing the need for early intervention and prevention, this timely book examines the impact of violence exposure on children and youth, discusses several existing programs, and proposes new approaches to the problem.
Book Synopsis Individual, Family and Society in Jane Austen's Work by : ZOUHEIR. JAMOUSSI
Download or read book Individual, Family and Society in Jane Austen's Work written by ZOUHEIR. JAMOUSSI and published by . This book was released on 2022-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws the attention of readers of Jane Austen's work to important aspects which have never been taken into due consideration by critics and are yet keys to the meaning of the relationship between individual, family and society in her writings. These aspects include the amazing number of ill-assorted married couples, and heredity through which conflicting characters in the parents are transmitted to their children. This accounts for strained relationships between siblings, further complicated by the inheritance customs of entail and primogeniture. The linkage seen by Austen between ill-matched couples, heredity (a natural process), and inheritance (social laws) is undoubtedly essential to action in her books. Within the families stand heroines, isolated yet central individuals, detached enough for keen observation of familial and social ills. Indeed, all criticism and all suggestions for reform are to be traced to their consciousness and conscience. Interestingly, the heroines' own developments are concomitant with momentous changes in the world in which they live. As the book shows, Austen is keenly aware of and mostly receptive to socio-economic evolution, pervasive bourgeois ideology, and social mobility, with their combined effects on the relationships between individuals, families, and society.
