Demography: Analysis and Synthesis, Four Volume Set
This four-volume collection of over 140 original chapters covers virtually everything of interest to demographers, sociologists, and others. Over 100 authors present population subjects in ways that provoke thinking and lead to the creation of new perspectives, not just facts and equations to be memorized. The articles follow a theory-methods-applications approach and so offer a kind of "one-stop shop" that is well suited for students and professors who need non-technical summaries, such as political scientists, public affairs specialists, and others. Unlike shorter handbooks, Demography: Analysis and Synthesis offers a long overdue, thorough treatment of the field. Choosing the analytical m...
The Other Population Crisis
In many developed countries, population decline poses economic and social strains and may even threaten national security. Through historical-political case studies of Sweden, France, Italy, Japan, and Singapore, The Other Population Crisis explores the motivations, politics, programming, and consequences of national efforts to promote births. Steven Philip Kramer finds a significant government role in stopping declines in birth rates. Sweden’s and France’s pro-natalist programs, which have succeeded, share the characteristics of being universal, not means-tested, and based on gender equality and making it easy for women to balance work and family. The programs in Italy, Japan, and Singapore, which have failed so far, have not devoted sufficient resources consistently enough to make a difference and do not support gender equality and women’s work-family balance, Kramer finds.
Partnerschaft und Elternschaft bei gleichgeschlechtlichen Paaren
Mutter, Mutter, Kind? Wie ist das Leben von Eltern, die in einer gleich - geschlecht lichen Paarbeziehung leben? Dieser Band bietet einen kritischen Einblick in die Lebensweise gleichgeschlechtlich orientierter Menschen. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die juristischen Rahmenbedingungen dieser Lebensart und die Bedeutung der Elternschaft. Wie andere gesellschaftlich lange nicht akzeptierte Lebens- und Familienformen, so ist auch die gleichgeschlechtliche Lebensform in jüngerer Zeit verstärkt ins Zentrum der wissenschaftlichen Aufmerksamkeit gerückt. Der Sonderband der Zeitschrift für Familienforschung dokumentiert nicht nur den aktuellen Forschungsstand in Europa, sondern versucht zudem, den vielf...
Mamme cattivissime?
Una madre felice è necessariamente una donna felice? Esiste veramente quell'istinto materno che fa sì che la donna si realizzi solo in quanto madre? Sembra di sì, almeno stando all'immagine che oggigiorno viene veicolata del sesso femminile e non solo da televisione e pubblicità, ma anche da saggi filosofici e sociologici. Ma non da Elisabeth Badinter che ripercorre mezzo secolo di storia dell'emancipazione femminile per ribadire alcuni capisaldi della parità fra i sessi. Primi fra tutti la pillola e l'allattamento artificiale che hanno reso le donne libere di scegliere. Scegliere se tornare a lavorare pur avendo un bambino, scegliere se avere un bambino. Che cosa è cambiato allora da ...
