As far back as the first century BCE, Chinese dynastic historians - all men - began recording the achievements of Chinese women and creating a structure of understanding that would be used to limit and control them. To men, these women became role models for their daughters and wives; to the few literate women readers, they became paradigms for their own behavior. Thus, although these biographies are descriptive by nature, they actually became prescriptive. Gentlemen's Prescriptions for Women's Lives is an enlightening source for studying Chinese women of the Imperial era as well as for unders

Budući da se bavim novinarstvom/spisateljstvom, dok razmišljam o životu na margini, prva asocijacija mi je uvijek ona margina u samom Wordu, koju vidim čak i dok ovo pišem, i koja se miče po potrebi kako bi sav tekst mogao upasti na jednu stranu onako kako to meni odgovara. Iako je asocijacija jako banalna, njena uporedivost sa stvarnošću je neupitna. Ako zamislimo društvo kao prazan list papira koji se svakim danom ispisuje do određene granice i ako nemogućnost pomicanja margine poistovjetimo s manjkom želje onoga/e i/ili onih koji/e pišu po toj stranici da to urade, lako je shvatiti zašto su marginalizovane grupe u našem društvu u poziciji u kojoj jesu – poziciji siromaštva, diskriminacije, odbacivanja i socijalne isključenosti. Očito je – (privilegovano) društvo ne želi da one budu na unutrašnjoj strani margine na kojoj ih pušta da egzistiraju.

Gerhard A. Ritters Standardwerk über Entstehung und Entwicklung des Sozialstaats seit der Frühen Neuzeit ist so aktuell wie nie. Die öffentlichen Debatten über Sozialtransfers, Gesundheitskosten und die angemessene Höhe von Hartz-IV-Leistungen schlagen hohe Wellen - nicht nur in Deutschland. Der Autor gibt einen vergleichenden Überblick über die Herausbildung des modernen Sozialstaats im Spannungsfeld von Industrialisierung, gesellschaftlichem Wandel und wechselnden sozialen und politischen Kräften. Unterschiede in den Systemen sozialer Sicherung und der Arbeitsbeziehungen in Deutschland, Großbritannien, Frankreich, Skandinavien, den Vereinigten Staaten und Japan werden so deutlich und nachvollziehbar. Die neue Auflage des Bandes wird durch einen Essay erweitert, der die aktuellen Probleme des Sozialstaats, ausgelöst durch die demographische Entwicklung, den Wandel der Arbeitswelt, die Globalisierung und Europäisierung sowie die Kosten der deutschen Einheit, darstellt und die Position des deutschen Sozialstaats im internationalen Vergleich erörtert.

Brojna istraživanja i izvještaji međunarodnih organizacija ukazuju na to da su Romi izloženi višestrukoj diskriminaciji i društvenom isključivanju. U odnosu na druge građane u Bosni i Hercegovini (BiH) samo mali broj Roma ostvaruje pristup obrazovanju, zdravstvenoj i socijalnoj zaštiti. Za mnoge romske porodice, koje su nezaposlene, te žive u teškom siromaštvu, nerijetko jedini izvor prihoda predstavlja prikupljanje sekundarnih sirovina. Mali je broj Roma koji su uspjeli dobiti zaposlenje u zdravstvu, policiji, obrazovanju, pravosuđu, ili općenito u državnim službama u BiH.
