The Domestic, Moral and Political Economies of Post-Celtic Tiger Ireland (Irish Society)
by Kieran Keohane and Carmen Kuhling
This book provides an analysis of neo-liberal political economics implemented in Ireland and the deleterious consequences of that model in terms of polarised social inequalities, impoverished public services and fiscal vulnerability as they appear in central social policy domains - health, housing and education in particular. Tracing the argument into the domains where the institutions are sustained and reproduced, this book examines the movement of modern economics away from its original concer...

The Social Context of AIDS (American Sociological Association Presidential)
by Joan Huber and Beth E. Schneider
Theoretical models for understanding AIDS in relation to society and the general question of high risk sexual practice, often the means of transmission of the virus, are among the issues discussed in this volume. It also explores the social context of policy and programme development in fighting AIDS - organizing drug users, forced blood-testing and family support groups, for example. Versions of these articles were originally delivered as papers in thematic sessions of the 1989 American Sociolo...

Inequalities in the Teaching Profession

Histoire jeu science dans l'aire de la littérature (Faux Titre, #187)
HISTOIRE JEU SCIENCE: les combinaisons que suggère ce triptyque sont exploitées ici de manière très diverse. La littérature interroge l'Histoire, mais elle prend aussi place dans ses réseaux. La science est à la fois l'objet des textes et le discours qui permet d'en explorer les conditions fondamentales. Le jeu qui s'interpose ouvre l'aire de la création et propose une ouverture à l'imagination et à la fantaisie. Ce recueil veut se positionner au carrefour des littératures européennes, au centre...

Bodies in Protest (Protest and Social Movements, #9)
by Johanna Sim ant, Christophe Tra ni, and James Jasper
Research on social movements has historically focused on the traditional weapons of the working class, especially labour strikes and street demonstrations-but everyday actions, such as eating or singing, which can also be turned into a means of protest, have yet to be fully explored. An interdisciplinary and comparative history of these modes of action, Bodies in Protest reveals how hunger strikes and music ranging from gospel songs to rock anthems can efficiently convey political messages and m...

The Effects of Age and Organizational Determinants on Substance Abuse Treatment Outcomes for Older Adults: Evidence from Maine
by Sara J Reed
Pre-war debutantes were members of the most protected, not to say isolated, stratum of 20th-century society: the young (17-20) unmarried daughters of the British upper classes. For most of them, the war changed all that for ever. It meant independence and the shock of the new, and daily exposure to customs and attitudes that must have seemed completely alien to them. This book will record, in their own voices where possible, the extraordinary diversity of challenges, shocks and responsibilities...
Report of the Country Life Commission and Special Message from the President of the United States
This book is a study of Dutch mosque designs, objects of heated public debate. Until now, studies of diaspora mosque designs have largely consisted of normative architectural critiques that reject the ubiquitous 'domes and minarets' as hampering further Islamic-architectural evolution. The Architectural Representation of Islam: Muslim-Commissioned Mosque Design in The Netherlands represents a clear break with the architectural critical narrative, and meticulously analyzes twelve design processes...
