O livro agora publicado pretende contribuir para a reflexão em torno da problemática social medieva. O quadro urbano configura a escala de análise proposta aos autores, a Baixa Idade Média e a Península Ibérica, os seus âmbitos cronológico e espacial. Duas problemáticas transversais configuraram esta obra. Por um lado, a terminologia de identificação social e a definição dos conteúdos funcionais dos grupos sociais em contexto urbano. Na verdade, a variedade terminológica e a sua evolução entre os séculos XII e XV, em especial na Península Ibérica, coloca questões basilares ainda pouco discutidas ao nível da historiografia medieval. Decorrendo desta questão, um outro aspeto foi enfatizado: o dos processos de mobilidade social e de identificação desenvolvidos no contexto urbano deste período, no âmbito islâmico e cristão, atendendo, neste último caso, às especificidades de uma cronologia de pós reconquista, marcada pela definição de novos tecidos e de novas redes sociais. Uma perspetiva comparativa enforma esta problemática. Ao cotejo entre as realidades sociais de Al Andalus e da Hispânia cristã, numa escala mais global, a análise foca-se, depois, na comparação entre o reino português e o castelhano para, finalmente, se concretizar nas diferentes realidades dos concelhos portugueses. Esta gradação parece-nos, metodologicamente, a mais correta para obviar os muitos silêncios e dúvidas ainda existentes sobre estas problemáticas, através da discussão dos paralelismos e/ou diferenças que configuram as realidades urbanas numa mesma temporalidade.

Metropolitan Belgrade presents a sociocultural history of the city as an entertainment mecca during the 1920s and 1930s. It unearths the ordinary and extraordinary leisure activities that captured the attention of urban residents and considers the broader role of popular culture in interwar society. As the capital of the newly unified Yugoslavia, Belgrade became increasingly linked to transnational networks after World War I, as jazz, film, and cabaret streamed into the city from abroad during the early 1920s. Belgrade's middle class residents readily consumed foreign popular culture as a symbol of their participation in European metropolitan modernity. The pleasures they derived from entertainment, however, stood at odds with their civic duty of promoting highbrow culture and nurturing the Serbian nation within the Yugoslav state. Ultimately, middle-class Belgraders learned to reconcile their leisured indulgences by defining them as bourgeois refinement. But as they endowed foreign entertainment with higher cultural value, they marginalized Yugoslav performers and their lower-class patrons from urban life. Metropolitan Belgrade tells the story of the Europeanization of the capital's middle class and how it led to spatial segregation, cultural stratification, and the destruction of the Yugoslav entertainment industry during the interwar years.

This book explores how structures of social inequality are linked to the social connections that people hold. The authors focus upon occupational inequalities where they see, for example, that the typical friendship patterns of people from one occupation are often very different to those of people from another. Social Inequalities and Occupational Stratification leverages empirical data about differences in social connections to chart structures of social distance and social inequality. Several of its chapters provide coverage of the long-standing CAMSIS project and its approach to analysing social interaction patterns in terms of a single dimension related to social inequality. Lambert and Griffiths also explore different ways that statistical methods and tools of social network analysis can be used to study the relationship between social distance and social stratification. .

A comprehensive social history of six Glasgow housing schemes in the first half of the twentieth century. When the Corporation of Glasgow undertook a massive programme of council house construction to replace the city's notorious slums after the First World War, they wound up reproducing a Victorian class structure. How did this occur? Scheming traces the issue to class-based paternalism that caused the reification of the local class structure in the bricks and mortar of the new council housing estates. Seán Damer provides a sustained critique of the Corporation of Glasgow's council housing policy and argues that it had the unintended consequence of amplifying social segregation and ghettoisation in the city. By combining archival research of city records with oral histories, this book lets the locals have their say about their experience as Glasgow council house tenants for the first time.
