Sociology: family & relationshipsJuly 2016Changing gender roles and attitudes to family formation in Ireland
by Series edited by Rob Kitchin, Margret Fine-Davis
Recent decades have witnessed major changes in gender roles and family patterns, as well as a falling birth rate in Ireland and the rest of Europe. While the traditional family is now being replaced in many cases by new family forms, we do not know the reasons why people are making the choices they are and whether or not these choices are leading to greater well-being. While demographic research has attempted to explain the new trends in family formation and fertility, there has been little research on people's attitudes to family formation and having children. This book presents the results of the first major study to examine people's attitudes to family formation and childbearing in Ireland. Based on a nationwide representative sample of 1,404 men and women in the childbearing age group, the study was carried out against a backdrop of changing gender role attitudes and behaviour as well as significant demographic change.

People are desperate, and they lose their humanity, they are ready to eat everything to survive. And here are two stranger women, two victims of their time, two opposite sides of the great darkness, called hunger, are at arm's length… Young Yavdokha, madness-like insight — and Solya, the holy blindness. One is killed by hunger — the other one is saved. One is promised to have eternal night — the other one is given hope for a happy renewal. And they do not know yet that they go towards each other. They go in order eventually to hug one another and to build a fragile bridge over the insatiable anthill of their torturers…

Humanities & Social Sciences2020I Will Mix Your Blood With Coal. Understanding Ukrainian East
by Oleksandr Mykhed
In 2014, the Russian army, with support from local militants, had occupied parts of Ukraine’s two easternmost regions, the regions that were the beating industrial heart of the socialist utopia in the Soviet era, and where coal extraction has exhausted both the human population and the natural resources. The regions have suffered from the post-Soviet chaos for decades. In the late 2016, the author set out on a research trip to the East to answer the common questions of those who’ve never been to the region. He takes his readers on a complicated, painful and hopeful trip across the Ukrainian East, guiding them through conversations with the locals, archival research, and conversations with prominent cultural fi gures like writer Serhij Zhadan or released after 700 days of terrorist captivity historian Ihor Kozlovskyi that were born in the region. The readers will meet the miners, the Belgian and British investors who founded the eastern cities, the priceless coal, events of the First and Second World War, the bloody Soviet history, the activists who are now working to improve the country, and sweet memories of the lost paradise.

November 2011Organisation und Störung
Aufsätze
by Dirk Baecker
Organisation ist die Herstellung und Aufrechterhaltung von Ordnung. Diese Ordnung ist aber ohne die dauernde Behebung von Störungen und – wichtiger noch – ohne ihre Vorwegnahme im Routineablauf der Organisation nicht zu denken. Wenn die Organisation einer Behörde, eines Krankenhauses, einer Schule oder eines Unternehmens nicht von außen gestört wird, muß sie sich also selbst stören, um auf alle Eventualitäten vorbereitet zu sein. Dirk Baecker zeigt in diesem Band unter anderem, was aus dieser Überlegung folgt, nämlich daß Führung und Management nichts anderes sind als die geordnete Störung einer Organisation.

Aufsätze
by Dirk Baecker
Die hier gesammelten Aufsätze erkunden die Möglichkeiten der Organisationstheorie, einem Selbstverständnis der modernen Gesellschaft entgegenzukommen, das von der Organisation nicht mehr nur die Umsetzung guter Absichten, sondern die Diagnose relevanter Problemstellungen erwartet. Die Organisation ist dann nicht mehr die rationale Maschine mit irrationalen Sonderleistungen, sondern ein soziales System mit eigenen Absichten und Beschränkungen.
