Abstract

This publication presents the proceedings from the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) conference on demographic change, focusing on how generations and gender influence these shifts. The conference, held in Geneva, brought together policymakers and researchers to address key demographic trends such as population aging, low fertility rates, and shifting family patterns. The book includes keynote papers and discussions aimed at informing sustainable policy responses. It emphasizes the importance of understanding demographic trends to promote intergenerational solidarity, gender equality, and balance between work and family life. The intended audience includes policymakers, researchers, and those interested in population issues.

Abstract

Die Aufsätze des Bandes präsentieren die nach sechsjähriger Projektarbeit gewonnenen Erkenntnisse aus dem DFG-Schwerpunktprogramm »Ursprünge, Arten und Folgen des Konstrukts ›Bevölkerung‹ vor, im und nach dem ›Dritten Reich«. HistorikerInnen und SoziologInnen zeigen disziplinäre Entwicklungsstränge der Bevölkerungswissenschaft(en) sowie den Wandel im ›Denken über die Bevölkerung‹ in Deutschland im 20. Jahrhundert. Der Begriff ›Bevölkerung‹ ist selbst Gegenstand der Aufsätze, in denen sich die AutorInnen mit Konstruktionen von Bevölkerungen in der Politik, mit den Wechselwirkungen von Bevölkerungswissenschaft(en) und Politik sowie mit den disziplinären Grenzbeziehungen dieser Wissenschaft zu Statistik, Medizin und den Sozialwissenschaften im 20. Jahrhundert befassen.

Abstract

Biological immunity as we know it does not exist until the late nineteenth century. Nor does the premise that organisms defend themselves at the cellular or molecular levels. For nearly two thousand years "immunity," a legal concept invented in ancient Rome, serves almost exclusively political and juridical ends. "Self-defense" also originates in a juridico-political context; it emerges in the mid-seventeenth century, during the English Civil War, when Thomas Hobbes defines it as the first "natural right." In the 1880s and 1890s, biomedicine fuses these two political precepts into one, creating a new vital function, "immunity-as-defense." In A Body Worth Defending, Ed Cohen reveals the unacknowledged political, economic, and philosophical assumptions about the human body that biomedicine incorporates when it recruits immunity to safeguard the vulnerable living organism.
