Abstract

In discussies over het Nederland van nu wordt veelvuldig gerept over 'sociale cohesie', 'maatschappelijke integratie', 'leefbaarheid' en 'veiligheid'. Het Sociaal en Cultureel Planbureau heeft onderzoek gedaan naar deze fenomenen en de resultaten daarvan in deze publicatie bijeengebracht. Uit de resultaten is een aantal ontwikkelingen te herleiden dat zich heeft voorgedaan in zowel de samenleving als geheel als - op lager niveau - de directe leefomgeving. Een belangrijke conclusie is: veiligheid en veiligheidsbeleving hangen sterk samen met aspecten van sociale cohesie en integratie.

Abstract

Power is an inescapable feature of human existence. It plays a role in all social contexts and is particularly important in the functioning of organizations and work groups. Organizational researchers have certainly recognised the importance of power but have traditionally focused on its negative aspects. Yet power can also have very positive effects. Power and Interdependence in Organizations capitalizes on significant developments in social science over the past twenty years to show how managers and employees can manage power in order to make it a constructive force in organizations. Written by a team of international academics, the book explores both the positive and negative aspects of power, identifying opportunities and threats. It shows that harnessing the positive aspects of power, as well as controlling its more destructive effects, has the potential to revolutionise the way that organizations function, making them both more humane and productive.

Abstract

The essays in this book trace the development of Joel Migdal's 'state-in-society' approach. That approach illuminates how power is exercised around the world, and how and when patterns of power change. Despite the triumph of concept of state in social science literature, actual states have had great difficulty in turning public policies into planned social change. The state-in-society approach points observers to the ongoing struggles over which rules dictating how people will lead their daily lives. These struggles, which ally parts of the state and groups in society against other such coalitions, determine how societies and states create and maintain distinct ways of structuring day-to-day life - the nature of the rules that govern people's behavior, whom they benefit and whom they disadvantage, which sorts of elements unite people and which divide them, what shared meaning people hold about their relations with others and their place in the world.

Abstract

There is currently a great deal of discussion in the humanities and social sciences about collective memory, but there is very little agreement on what it is. The first goal of this volume is to review various understandings of this term to bring some coherence to the discussion. Drawing on this review, James V. Wertsch goes on to outline a particular version of collective remembering grounded in the use of 'textual resources', especially narratives. This takes him into the special properties of narrative that shape this process and into the issues of how these textual resources are produced and consumed. Wertsch brings these general ideas to life by examining the rapid, massive transformation of collective memory during the transition from Soviet to post-Soviet Russia.

Abstract

Since the early days of the fur trade, wildlife has been powerfully and inspiringly emblematic of Canada. Yet the story of saving Canada's wildlife is largely unknown. States of Nature is one of the first books to trace the development of Canadian wildlife conservation from its social, political, and historical roots. While noting the influence of celebrity conservationists such as Jack Miner and Grey Owl, Tina Loo emphasizes the impact of ordinary people on the evolution of wildlife management in Canada. She also explores the elements leading up to the emergence of the modern environmental movement, ranging from the reliance on and practical knowledge of wildlife demonstrated by rural people to the more aloof and scientific approach of state-sponsored environmentalism. Illustrated with evocative images of the Canadian wilderness of yesteryear and supported by historical case studies, States of Nature will appeal to historians, policy makers, and wildlife managers, as well as to general readers fascinated by the natural world and its champions.

Abstract

In the 1990s, as concern grew in the United States about the integration of large numbers of immigrants, scholars searching for historical parallels looked to the last great period of immigration, from 1880 to 1914. That example, however, is generally viewed as inapplicable to the current immigration debates in Europe. Paths of Integration turns this conventional wisdom on its head, arguing that the history of European migration more closely parallels the U.S. experience than most realize, due to the largely ignored, but extensive, intra-European migration of the same period. By placing the European and U.S. examples side by side, the contributors to this volume offer long-term insights on a question that will be of great importance in the coming decades.

Abstract

Dit boek richt de spotlights op het kleine ontmoeten, het voorbijflitsende, de stad in zakformaat en de neveneffecten. De lezer wordt ondergedompeld in het alledaagse leven van stedelingen, de wereld van het winkelen en het leven op de tram. De microkosmos van het stadsleven met al zijn minuscule details krijgt voorrang op de grote beschouwingen over onze huidige samenleving. De ongrijpbare elementen halen het van de voorspelbare zaken in het menselijk gedrag. In plaats van de diepgaande en duurzame relaties worden de kortstondige en vluchtige contacten tussen onbekende mensen bestudeerd. Het gaat hier over het kletsen met een onbekende over zijn hond, een praatje maken met een kassierster, even zuchten met andere wachtenden aan de halte als de tram op zich laat wachten... Dit kluwen van kortdurende relaties is niet zo banaal als we vaak denken. Dit chaotisch geheel van relaties is een permanent kabbelende stroom door de stad en vormt het sociale karakter ervan. De wetenschappelijke analyse van dit kleine ontmoeten is bovendien inspirerend voor een andere kijk op gemeenschap, conflicten, interventies en de publieke ruimte in de stad.
