Abstract

Teoksen yhdeksän artikkelia tarkastelevat luokkakysymystä koulutusjärjestelmän kaltaisissa yhteiskunnallisissa rakenteissa piilevinä elettyinä ja koettuina, valtaan kietoutuneina ilmiönä. Kirjaan on koostettu kolme ajankohtaista näkökulmakokonaisuutta. Teoksen avaa kysymys sosiaalisesta liikkuvuudesta. Empiirisinä tutkimuskohteina toimivat esimerkit arvostettujen koulutusalojen saavuttamisesta ja arvostetuimpien ammattialojen periytymisestä, luokkataustan yhteyksistä kouluttautumiseen työväenluokkaistaustaisten kauppatieteen opiskelijoiden koulutuskokemuksien kautta, sekä akateeminen maailman ja työväenluokkaisen kulttuurin kohtaamisesta työläistaustaisten ja akateemisesti koulutettujen naisten yliopistotyössä. Kirjan toisessa osassa koulutusta tarkastellaan elämänkulkua ja yhteiskuntaluokkaa määrittävänä pääomana. Aiheina ovat nuoruuden elämänvaiheena sekä luokka-aseman yhdistyminen, koulutusvalintojen ja yhteiskuntaluokka-aseman bourdieulainen analyysi, sekä palkansaajien luokka-aseman mukaiset mahdollisuudet työssä oppimiseen ja itsensä kehittämiseen. Kolmannessa osassa kiinnitetään katse koulutusjärjestelmään ja sen luokittuneisiin rakenteisiin. Koulutuksen ja yhteiskuntaluokan uusintamisen dynamiikkaa analysoidaan käyttämällä empiirisinä tutkimuskohteina yhteiskunnallisten suhteiden ylisukupolvisen uusintamisen muotoja perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelmissa, koulussa käytetyn kielen merkitystä kulttuurisena pääomana, sekä luokka-aseman yhteyksiä oppivelvollisuusiän nostamista ja toisen asteen maksuttomuutta edistäviin näkökulmiin.

Abstract

"The bestselling author of Bowling Alone offers [an] ... examination of the American Dream in crisis--how and why opportunities for upward mobility are diminishing, jeopardizing the prospects of an ever larger segment of Americans"-- "What has happened to the Land of Opportunity? The promise of the American Dream is that anyone, regardless of his or her origins, can have a fair start in life. If we work hard, we can get a good education and achieve success. But over the last several decades a disturbing 'opportunity gap' has unexpectedly emerged between kids from 'have' and 'have-not' backgrounds. The central tenet of the American Dream--that all children, regardless of their family and social background, should have a decent chance to improve their lot in life--is no longer 'self-evident.' Robert Putnam begins this groundbreaking examination of our national prospects with the story of his high school class of 1959 in Port Clinton, Ohio. The vast majority of those students--'our kids' to everyone in town--went on to lives better than those of their parents. They raised their children with the same expectations. But those children--and their children--have not fared so well in an age of fragile families, crumbling communities, and disappearing jobs. Their lives reflect the diminishing opportunities that haunt so many American kids today. Putnam tells poignant stories of rich and poor kids from cities and suburbs across the country, drawing on a formidable body of research undertaken especially for this book. Our Kids is a rare combination of moving personal narratives and authoritative evidence--and for that reason, all the more troubling to read. It is a signal contribution to the ongoing discussion about inequality in America, a deeply informed and perceptive analysis of our country at a critical time. In the final chapter, Putnam offers suggestions for how we might halt this decline in opportunity and restore a greater chance for upward mobility."--Book jacket.

Abstract

This spirited and engaging multidisciplinary volume pins its focus on the lived experiences and cultural depictions of women's mobility and labor in Japan. The theme of "modern girls" continues to offer a captivating window into the changes that women's roles have undergone during the course of the last century. Here we encounter Japanese women inhabiting the most modern of spaces, in newly created professions, moving upward and outward, claiming the public life as their own: shop girls, elevator girls, dance hall dancers, tour bus guides, airline stewardesses, international beauty queens, overseas teachers, corporate soccer players, and even female members of the Self-Defense Forces. Directly linking gender, mobility, and labor in 20th and 21st century Japan, this collection brings to life the ways in which these modern girls—historically and contemporaneously—have influenced social roles, patterns of daily life, and Japan's global image. It is an ideal guidebook for students, scholars, and general readers alike.
