        Aktor, Situation und normative Muster

        Ein Essay zur Theorie sozialen Handelns

        by Talcott Parsons, Harald Wenzel, Harald Wenzel

        Dieser Essay wurde gegen Ende 1939 fertiggestellt, kaum zwei Jahre nach der Veröffentlichung des ersten großen Werkes von Talcott Parsons: The Structure of Social Action. Als ein Kompendium der dort begründeten »Theorie des Handelns« sucht es deren systematischen Gehalt zu explizieren und weiterzuentwickeln. Es knüpft unmittelbar an das dort gestellte Problem der sozialen Ordnung und dessen Lösungsversuch an. Soziale Integration sollte demnach durch gemeinsame, interindividuell geteilte Wertorientierungen garantiert sein. In diesem Essay nun wird der dieser Konzeption von Ordnung zugrundeliegende Handlungsbegriff präzisiert: Handeln ist die durch normative Muster vermittelte »Orientierung« eines Aktors an seiner Situation.

        Intimacy and mobility in an era of hardening borders

        Gender, reproduction, regulation

        by Haldis Haukanes, Frances Pine

        This book is a collection of articles by anthropologists and social scientists concerned with gendered labour, care, intimacy and sexuality, in relation to mobility and the hardening of borders in Europe. Interrogating the relation between physical, geopolitical borders and ideological, conceptual boundaries, it offers a range of vivid and original ethnographic case studies that will capture the imagination of anyone interested in gendered migration, policies of inclusion and exclusion, and regulation of reproduction and intimacy. The book presents ethnographic and phenomenological discussions of people's changing lives as they cross borders, how people transgress and reshape moral boundaries of proper gender and kinship behaviour, and moral economies of intimacy and sexuality. It also focuses on migrants' navigation of social and financial services in their destination countries, putting questions about rights and limitations on citizenship at the core.

        Bordering intimacy

        Postcolonial governance and the policing of family

        by Joe Turner

        Bordering intimacy explores the interconnected role of borders and dominant forms of family intimacy in the governance of postcolonial states. Combining a historical investigation with postcolonial, decolonial and black feminist theory, the book reveals how the border policies of the British and other European empires have been reinvented for the twenty-first century through appeals to protect and sustain 'family life' - appeals that serve to justify and obfuscate the continued organisation of racialised violence. The book examines the continuity of colonial rule in numerous areas of contemporary government, including family visa regimes, the policing of 'sham marriages', counterterror strategies, deprivation of citizenship, policing tactics and integration policy.

        States of Matter: Gases, Liquids, Plasmas, and Solids, Third Edition

        by Krista West

        Praise for the previous edition: "...aided by clear diagrams and photographs, as well as sidebars that cover historical background, notable scientists, and practical applications of the chemistry concepts."—The Horn Book Guide Without the different states of matter—the solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas that make up our universe—the world would be a very boring place. States of matter are constantly changing form all around us: hot showers steam up the bathroom mirror, gaseous water falls to the ground as snow, liquid escapes from our skin to cool the body, and plasma moves from the atmosphere to the surface of the Earth via lightning strikes. But, as readers of this insightful eBook will learn, these things don't happen by accident. States of Matter: Gases, Liquids, Solids, and Plasmas, Third Edition deciphers the science behind these chemical states to present an engaging and eye-opening reference enhanced by full-color photographs and illustrations.

        Ein Essay zur Theorie sozialen Handelns

        by Talcott Parsons, Harald Wenzel, Harald Wenzel, Harald Wenzel

        Bei diesem Essay handelt es sich um ein bisher unveröffentlichtes Manuskript aus dem Nachlaß des 1979 verstorbenen amerikanischen Soziologen, das gegen Ende 1939 fertiggestellt wurde, kaum zwei Jahre nach der Veröffentlichung seines ersten großen Werks, The Structure of Social Action. Als ein Kompendium der dort begründeten »Theorie des Handelns« sucht es deren systematischen Gehalt zu explizieren und weiterzuentwickeln. In seiner Treue gegenüber dem in The Structure of Social Action entworfenen Programm einer Theorie des Handelns, jedoch auch in den Neuerungen und Erweiterungen in dessen materialer Ausgestaltung kann dieser Essay überraschen, stellt er doch die Überzeugung der Parsons-Folklore in Frage, daß zwischen der voluntaristischen Handlungstheorie und der strukturfunktionalistischen Systemtheorie des Autors ein klarer Trennungsstrich zu ziehen sei. Er ist nicht nur ein wichtiges Brückenglied zwischen diesen beiden Werkphasen, er zeigt darüber hinaus ein wichtiges Wegstück auf, das Parsons in der Ausformulierung jenes Programms als einer Theorie des allgemeinen Handlungssystems beschreitet.
