Abstract:
This article suggests that Weber's cosmopolitan dimension has much to do with his extended family history, which has been relatively neglected even though it influenced his world view and oeuvre in significant respects. It first sketches the cosmopolitan family context and then turns to Weber's political and scholarly agenda, especially the little-known story of his strong political and professional engagement in the battle over exchange reform in the eighteen-nineties.

Abstract:
The article deals with the analyses of the content and main directions of the struggle of the Soviet state security bodies against the so-called anti-Soviet element in 1944-1953 based on declassified archival documents. On the example of Jolea’s family from the city of Izmail, Izmail region, is represented a multifaceted picture of the life of the average family of the region in the postwar punitive and repressive policy of the Soviet government, which caused many human tragedies: loss of relatives, forcible severance of family ties, destruction of established way life. The consequences of these repressions for decades in advance determined complex and contradictory processes and significantly affected the psychology of the post-war generations of Izmail region.

Abstract:
A country's family policy reflects, either directly or indirectly, the attitude of government, parliament and society to the family as an institution. The way in which a government deals with families, whether it gives them financial support, and why and how it does so, reveals the objectives of its family policy, and also ultimately its population policy.

Abstract:
Family history has become a matter of concern for both academics and policy makers in recent years. During the same period oral history has emerged as a method used in many scholarly studies. For some it is a discipline in its own right, for some it is a technique to be used field by field, while for others it is viewed as a part of the popular culture. After the television adaptation of Alex Haley's somewhat controversial but highly influential book, Roots, use of genealogical materials at the Library of Congress increased markedly, giving a real boost to the popular pursuit of the past. This article will discuss the role of oral history in the documentation and interpretation of family history.

Abstract:
Every single government which accepts the reality that “healthy nations comprise of healthy citizens” choose to make reforms in the healthcare systems that they are responsible to govern, in the frame of policies they have adopted. The most extensive action in the last 20 year of Turkish Republic in this context is Health Transformation Programme (HTP). “Family Physician Model” is one the significant steps through the purpose of abolishing the obstacles in front of access to health care services, which is one of the main aims of HTP. In this study, it is aimed to present a critical perspective by revealing the main reasons to adopt family medicine as a fundamental political choice, taking a glance at the history of family medicine, examining the changes created by family medicine and giving place to the views of shareholders.Keywords: family physician, healthcare, health policies, primary health care services, policy analysisÂ

Abstract:
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was previously considered a common disease in middle-aged and older people, but the age of diagnosis of T2DM is advancing every year, and the trend toward a younger age is obvious. Early-onset T2DM is a clinical syndrome caused by genetic and environmental factors. This study aimed to investigate the association between diabetic family history and gender with the diagnosed age of T2DM. Methods The newly diagnosed T2DM patients admitted to the diabetes identification center of Tianjin 4th Central Hospital (TJ4thch) from October 2017 to June 2020 were registered. According to whether the diagnosis age is over 40 years old, patients were divided into 2 groups (early-onset T2DM group and late-onset T2DM group). In the study, the T2DM family history was divided into 5 types: ( a) Father T2DM: father with T2DM, but not the mother; ( b) Mother T2DM: mother with T2DM, but not the father; ( c) Both parents with T2DM; ( d) Another relative(s) (other than the parents) with a history of T2DM; and ( e) Without a family history of T2DM. The diagnosed age with different genders and diabetic family history was compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association factors of early-onset T2DM. Results A total of 3725 patients completed the survey. There were 589 patients (15.8%) with early-onset T2DM, and 2469 patients (66.3%) had a diabetic family history. The T2DM-diagnosed age in males was lower than in females (51.7 ± 11.2 vs 54.0 ± 10.2, P = .000). The result was also reflected in the different T2DM family histories (with Both parents T2DM, 46.7 ± 11.1 vs 48.5 ± 10.3, P = .271; with Father T2DM, 46.8 ± 10.8 vs 49.8 ± 11.3, P = .005; with Mother T2DM, 50.4 ± 10.6 vs 52.3 ± 10.2, P = .019; with Other T2DM family history, 54.0 ± 10.8 vs 55.7 ± 9.5, P = .008; with no T2DM family history, 53.0 ± 11.0 vs 55.9 ± 9.3, P = .000). The order of the T2DM-diagnosed age in the different groups was Both parents T2DM (47.5 ± 11.0) and Father T2DM (47.9 ± 11.1) family history < that with Mother T2DM family history (51.1 ± 10.5) < that with Other T2DM family history (54.7 ± 10.3) and no T2DM family history (54.1 ± 10.5). Logistic regression analysis indicated that gender (OR, 1.733; P = .000), Father T2DM history (OR, 2.738; P = .000), Mother T2DM history (OR, 1.536; P = .001), Both parents T2DM (OR, 2.866; P = .000) and body mass index (OR, 1.108, P = .000) were correlated with early-onset T2DM. Conclusion Patients with early-onset T2DM tend to have a more obvious T2DM family history in China. This survey shows that when a parent has a T2DM family history, especially the father with T2DM, male patients are diagnosed with T2DM earlier. We need more intensive screening for diabetes in children with a family history of diabetes, especially in male children.

Abstract:
Abstract:This article presents an investigation into whether individuals incorporate information on their family genetic (health) endowment into decision making regarding participation in behaviours related to the production of health capital. Competing theoretical perspectives exist as to how genetic endowment should affect participation in health-related behaviours. There is also a growing consensus that the availability of genetic information holds important consequences for the individual in terms of investment in human capital, the pricing and availability of health insurance, and labour market opportunity. Therefore, the question of how individuals use the greater availability of genetic data is important. Our empirical results indicate that poor genetic endowment tends to be associated with a lower probability of participation in cigarette smoking, but also a lower probability of participation in regular exercise.

Abstract The RAISE Family Caregiving Advisory Council, created under the Recognize, Assist, Include, Support, and Engage (RAISE) Family Caregivers Act (2018) has been tasked to support the Secretary of Health and Human Services in developing a national family caregiving strategy, published in 2022 as its National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers. One key concern identified by advocates and others is the accountability question: how can we hold policymakers at all levels of government accountable for achieving the policy goals articulated in the National Strategy? This symposium discusses that issue by first providing an overview of a key mechanism for state accountability, AARP’s State Scorecard on Long-Term Services and Supports, which identifies support for family caregivers as one of its four dimensions. Susan Reinhard, PhD, Senior Vice President at AARP and Director of its Public Policy Institute, will describe the history, goals, and future of the Scorecard’s family caregiver component. Salom Teshale, PhD, from the National Academy for State Health Policy will describe how states are focusing their energies in current actions supporting family caregivers, while Mike Wittke, MPA, of the National Alliance for Caregiving will discuss how federal actions might be tracked and assessed. Drawing on research supporting the RAISE Advisory Council, Eileen J. Tell, MPH will suggest additional dimensions that could be integrated into the assessment of progress. Rani Snyder, MPA, of the John A. Hartford Foundation will act as discussant.

Abstract:
AbstractThe National Family Planning Programme (NFPP) was launched in Ghana in May 1970. It was a tool to implement the 1969 Population Policy Paper, which the military government, the National Liberation Council (NLC), had written with the aid of Ford Foundation advisers. The policy paper reiterated international ‘overpopulation’ discourses that pushed for national planning to stem population growth, especially in ‘developing’ countries. Indeed, it constituted an example of development planning. It discursively linked Ghana's prosperity, and modernity, to stemming rapid population growth through fertility limitation. When the NFPP was launched by the Progress Party (PP) government in 1970, its focus was to implement the population policy by limiting population growth through curbing fertility. International discourses of development and population, as well as the specific interventions of organizations such as the Ford Foundation, the Population Council, and the International Planned Parenthood Federation, shaped Ghana's family planning story. However, choices over the implementation of family planning were ultimately linked to governments’ modernization and development projects and ideologies. Different approaches to family planning by the Nkrumah, NLC, and PP governments highlight the fact that family planning was ultimately political, but legitimized by development discourses of global and local origin.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe precarious financial situation of many elderly women in developed countries is well established. Nevertheless, in-depth insight into the persistent vulnerability of this group remains largely absent. In this article, we demonstrate how a specific focus on the interaction between work history, family history and pension regulations can provide greater insight into the mechanisms that produce poverty among elderly women in Belgium. To that end, we make use of register data on some 9,000 women aged 65–71. Data on the poverty risk of these women is linked to career and family data, spanning over 45 years. We find that pension policy can indeed account for the higher poverty risk of some groups of elderly women (e.g. divorcees) as compared to others (e.g. widows). Similarly, pension policy can, to a large extent, directly or indirectly explain how previous lifecourse events, such as marital dissolution or childbirth, affect old-age poverty risk. However, our study also reveals some unexpected findings. Most notably, pension regulations fail to account for the beneficial situation of married women. Indeed, our analyses suggest that capital (income) may prove more decisive than pension rights in explaining the low poverty risk of married women when compared to other marital groups. Drawing from our findings, we conclude with some suggestions as to where pension policy should go from here.

Abstract:
This article records briefly the history of the Family Inclusion Network as an organisation that promotes family inclusive child protection practice. Since its inception in Queensland in 2006, Family Inclusion Network organisations have been formed elsewhere and now exist in Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales. In 2010, developments at a national level saw the formation of the Family Inclusion Network Australia. Most organisations are incorporated and some have achieved charitable status. Each organisation endorses a common set of aims and objectives. There are, however, differences in terms of whether state or territory organisations accept government funding or not, are staffed by professionals or rely entirely on volunteer personnel, and have a capacity or otherwise to provide direct casework services to parents. Some state organisations focus on information and advice services, and legislative and policy reform efforts. All have telephone advice lines and a webpage presence. This article also focuses on a code of ethics for child protection practice and on the contribution parents can make to child protection services, and their rights to do so.

Many scholars explain the causes of this trend through the perspective of the Second Demographic Transition. The aim of this research was to define the nature of cohabitations in Russia, reveal the factors of entrance to non-marital unions in order to discuss how and why non-marital union is implicated in recent dialogues about family policy. In order to achieve the aim, such methods as Event History Analysis and Sequence Analysis were used.

Abstract:
In studies of cancer risk, detection bias arises when risk factors are associated with screening patterns, affecting the likelihood and timing of diagnosis. To eliminate detection bias in a screened cohort, we propose modeling the latent onset of cancer and estimating the association between risk factors and onset rather than diagnosis. We apply this framework to estimate the increase in prostate cancer risk associated with black race and family history using data from the SELECT prostate cancer prevention trial, in which men were screened and biopsied according to community practices. A positive family history was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) of prostate cancer onset of 1.8, lower than the corresponding HR of prostate cancer diagnosis (HR = 2.2). This result comports with a finding that men in SELECT with a family history were more likely to be biopsied following a positive PSA test than men with no family history. For black race, the HRs for onset and diagnosis were similar, consistent with similar patterns of screening and biopsy by race. If individual screening and diagnosis histories are available, latent disease modeling can be used to decouple risk of disease from risk of disease diagnosis and reduce detection bias.

Abstract:
When the First World War ended, Germany experienced an unprecedented period of political revolution, economic turmoil, and social upheaval. Among the myriad problems facing the nation was one concern that cut across party lines and prompted attention at both the national and local levels. Lawmakers, doctors, clergy, and ordinary Germans across the political spectrum agreed that the breakdown of the family had weakened the nation, contributed to military defeat, worsened economic misery, and exacerbated societal conflict. High divorce and illegitimacy rates together with an alarmingly low birth rate created a picture of families in crisis. The belief was widespread that only by creating policies that strengthened families would Germany stand a chance of regaining its historical strength. Because both Weimar and National Socialist policymakers saw the family as essential to rejuvenating the battered nation, the interwar era witnessed a wide variety of family-directed policies. Social welfare, unemployment benefits, health insurance, and maternity benefits were just the beginning of a series of programs designed to strengthen Germany and support families. While state programs targeted many different groups within society, children stood out as especially worthy recipients. Policymakers in both the Weimar and National Socialist eras recognized that children, the most vulnerable members of society and the nation's future, required special attention.

Abstract:
SummaryAlthough China’s family planning programme is often referred to in the singular, most notably the One-Child policy, in reality there have been a number of different policies in place simultaneously, targeted at different sub-populations characterized by region and socioeconomic conditions. This study attempted to systematically assess the differential impact of China’s family planning programmes over the past 40 years. The contribution of Parity Progression Ratios to fertility change among different sub-populations exposed to various family planning policies over time was assessed. Cross-sectional birth history data from six consecutive rounds of nationally representative population and family planning surveys from the early 1970s until the mid-2000s were used, covering all geographical regions of China. Four sub-populations exposed to differential family planning regimes were identified. The analyses provide compelling evidence of the influential role of family planning policies in reducing higher Parity Progression Ratios across different sub-populations, particularly in urban China where fertility dropped to replacement level even before the implementation of the One-Child policy. The prevailing socioeconomic conditions in turn have been instrumental in adapting and accelerating family planning policy responses to reducing fertility levels across China.

Abstract:
Background Schizophrenia (SCH) and bipolar disorder (BD) have both shared and unique genetic risk factors and clinical characteristics. The aim of the present study was to identify potential risk factors significantly associated with SCH, relative to a BD reference group. Methods Data were obtained from medical records of patients that entered a major Mexico City hospital during 2009–2010 presenting psychotic symptoms (n = 1132; 830 cases of SCH, 302 cases of BD; 714 men and 418 women). SCH and BD diagnoses were compared with respect to a number of family and clinical characteristics. Logistic and linear regression analyses were used to respectively identify factors selectively associated with the SCH diagnosis relative to the BD diagnosis and explore the relationship between PANSS scores and parental age at time of birth to the age of SCH onset. Results Patients with SCH showed greater functional impairment than those with BD. Family history of mental illness, premorbid schizoid-like personality, and obstetric trauma were significantly associated with the SCH diagnosis. The association of obstetric trauma with SCH was greatest in male patients with a family history of mental illness. In women, increased paternal and decreased maternal age at time of the patient’s birth were associated with an earlier age of SCH onset. Conclusion Male gender, showing premorbid schizoid-like personality, familial SCH, and obstetric trauma are risk factors that distinguish SCH from BD. Additionally, our results suggest that risk for SCH relative to BD may be importantly influenced by interactions between familial risk, gender, and obstetric trauma.

Abstract:
This article analyses the history of the Swedish welfare state, with a special emphasis on the development of Swedish family policy between 1930 and 1975. It is argued that a coalition between state officials and state-appointed experts was active in the shaping and legitimising of the concept of family as well of family politics. The underlying assumption of the paper is that the concepts of the family and of family relations are constructed through the intertwining relationship between the state (exemplified through social and family politics) and social science academics, employed as experts in governmental commissions. Thus, the main object is to explore the arguments behind family policy recommendations that were put forward in governmental commission reports between the 1930’s and the mid 1970’s. This period is marked by several policy ruptures. In its early period, the main goals was to simultaneously strengthen the functionality of the nuclear family and creating equality between men and women. It was followed by a period marked by ambivalence, where the dual roles of women were highlighted at the same time as the nuclear family was made the cornerstone of family policy. In the 1960’s, elements of a gender neutral family policy emanated.

Abstract:
History has so far paid scant attention to Muslims in the earliest phase of colonizing the Americas. As a general policy, the Spanish Crown prohibited all non-Catholics from going to early Spanish America. Nevertheless, historians recognize that a few Muslims managed to secretly cross the Atlantic Ocean with the European settlers during the sixteenth century. Later they imported African Muslim slaves but historians considered both Africans and indigenous peoples passive participants in forming Latin American society until evidence refuted these erroneous views. Furthermore, the public had assumed that only single Spanish men went to the American unknown until historians challenged this view, and now women’s role is fully recognized in the colonizing enterprise. Additionally, despite the ban on non-Catholics, researchers found many Jews in the Americas, even if the Spanish Inquisition found out and killed almost all of them. In line with revisionist history, my research pioneers in three aspects. It demonstrates that Muslim men and women went to early Spanish America. Also, the Spanish Crown allowed Muslims to legally go to its American colonies. Additionally, the documents substantiate my new findings that Muslims went to sixteenth-century Latin America as complete families. They mostly proceeded out of Spain as the wards or servant-slaves of Spanish settlers after superficially converting to Catholicism. The present study follows two case studies that record Muslim families in early sixteenth-century Spanish America. Paradoxically, their very persecutor—the Spanish Church and its terrible Inquisitorial arm—established their contested belief in Islam.

Abstract:
The history of the Social Security Amendments of 1967 illuminates the contours of fiscal citizenship. This watershed law created both work requirements for Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) recipients and new policy instruments, including federal child support enforcement, to compel poor men to fulfill their financial obligations to their families. Welfare reformers claimed that such changes were necessary to protect the rights of taxpayers against the “criminal” predations of welfare recipients. These policy changes initiated in 1967 redefined poor women's non-work, as well as their sexual and reproductive decisions, as crimes against taxpayers. Welfare recipients contested this logic and the policies that flowed from it by insisting on the value of their own domestic labor and rejecting a narrow view of taxpaying citizenship. The resolution of these questions played a critical role in revising the American social contract.

Abstract:
The political scene of Serbia is scientifically well studied. Historical literature about Serbia in the 19th century is vast and interesting. This article aims to present the rulers of the Obrenović dynasty in the light of their tragic deaths mostly through memoir historical sources. The lives and deaths of the Serbian rulers affected both the interior and foreign policy of the country. The Obrenović dynasty died out except for their female branches and even those have not been researched enough. This paper will explain the chain of events that led to the end of the Obrenović family.

Abstract:
The interview of Gela Dumbadze, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Georgia to Ukraine, offers un account of the cooperation mechanisms between Ukraine and Georgia, various spheres for cooperation, and bilateral relations, which often recede from view but have great potential. The example of such interaction is exchange between the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia. In practice, this cooperation is embodied in intensive communication between representatives of governmental institutions and information exchange. The Embassy exerts major efforts to maintain this dialogue on a permanent basis. It is planned, inter alia, to form a basis for the recognition of driving licenses between Ukraine and Georgia. Crime prevention is also a crucial matter. The Ambassador has worked in different countries for a long time, thus the interview is devoted to the 20th anniversary of his diplomatic service and the path of Gela Dumbadze as a diplomat. The trace of Georgian culture in Ukraine is quite noticeable thanks to the vibrant Georgian diaspora, dances, and cuisine. The Embassy always supports all the initiatives, organises many events, facilitates the organisation and holding of festivals. The Ambassador also emphasises that the main feature of each nation is sincerity and spiritual amity, and that Georgians are always glad to welcome Ukrainians. The Ambassador calls for appreciation and preservation of friendly relations, taking interest in history, culture. The good examples of strengthening of cultural exchange is commemoration of the geniuses of Ukrainian and Georgian nations. The interview also touched on the family matter, since the Ambassador’s wife was born in Ukraine. They have been together for 30 years. According to the Ambassador, family means a lot both for both Georgians and Ukrainians. Where a family has strong traditions, there is always a sound foundation for a state and development. Family is decisive in the formation of personality. The Ambassador wraps up with expressing his gratitude to the Directorate-General for Rendering Services to Diplomatic Missions for the facilitation of activities of the diplomatic corps. Keywords: Georgia, cultural exchange, Ukraine, diplomatic service, Georgian diaspora, interaction.

Abstract:
Abstract Social investment (SI) policies have been popular among industrial countries in the past two decades. Governments hope that SI policies will promote productivity and economic growth by creating high-skill labor forces that can adapt to the imperatives of the new knowledge economy and technological advances, or that can create new technologies themselves. They also hope that SI policies will mitigate new social risks, such as single-parent families and workers in precarious employment by better preparing workers for jobs and promoting social inclusion. However, little research exists that empirically investigates whether or not SI policies really produce these positive outcomes. Of all economic outcomes, this paper focuses on economic growth and the channels of economic growth—multifactor productivity (MFP), physical capital investment, and labor input—and investigates whether SI policies promote growth in GDP and its channels. Data from 17 industrial countries are analyzed. The analysis finds that family support, education, and ALMP spending (all measured as spending per child, student, and an unemployed person, respectively) is positively associated with MFP and GDP growth, and that MFP growth is the main channel through which SI policies enhance GDP growth. Education spending boosts the growth of all of MFP, physical capital stock, labor input, and GDP growth via those channels. While family support does not promote the growth of labor input, the results suggest that larger family support spending leads to higher levels of labor input. Overall, these types of SI spending have generally positive effects on economic growth.

Abstract:
Abstract:The one-child era, which lasted thirty-five years (1980–2015), was a unique period in Chinese (and even world) history. With the introduction of the universal two-child policy in 2016, China put an end to the age of the one-child policy. Since the policy change has come into effect, China's rural areas, which contain approximately 800 million people, have experienced a very particular historical phenomenon. Due to the changes in China's family planning policy, slogans painted on walls have evolved in terms of the messages they carry to grassroots rural areas. Once conveying China's family planning policy propaganda with, at times, a shocking and controversial tone, the wall slogans in rural areas have evolved with the wider changes to the country's family planning policy. However, this dying, unique way of communication between the government and rural areas is being consigned to the memory of the times of rural policy advocacy in China.

Abstract This article explores the introduction of family policy in Alsace following the Great War and the efforts of local pronatalist leaders to create a new moral order in the region. While French goals of promoting population growth have been well documented at the national level, relatively little attention has been accorded to the unique way in which the demographic question developed outside Paris. The interwar period in France was marked by shifting boundaries and population movements across borders, both of which shaped French pronatalism. Because such developments factored into understandings of both French identity and concerns about population growth, French demographic policy cannot be fully understood without considering how these questions developed in regions such as Alsace. As this article shows, the introduction of a pronatalist family policy and moral crusade intersected with concurrent efforts to minimize German influences and make the region more ‘French’.

Abstract:
The article reveals the fundamental principles of the origin and development of world population policy on the example of the earliest civilizations in the history of mankind. Contrary to the popular stereotypes about the emergence of the first practices of this policy during the period of ancient Chinese and ancient Greek civilizations, the article provides a reasoned justification for the earlier origin, formation and dynamic development of the practice of political and legal regulation of family and demographic processes. The authors pay special attention to the terminological foundations and the specifics of the interpretation of key concepts in the context of the subject field of the article. Using a wide range of sources, including historical evidence, works of art, statements of ancient authors (poets and historians), teachings, treatises, codes of laws, etc., the article concludes that the normative regulators of marriages, divorces and reproductive behavior were fully formed during the period under review. Analysis of the primary normative practices in the field of regulation of family and demographic processes show the clear link of ancient methods of influencing the components of demographic dynamics with the modern understanding of the essence and content of population policy in its global international meaning. Demonstrating the systemic nature of the ancient samples of this kind of state policy, the authors come to a structural presentation of its basic principles, the history of which dates back to the emergence of the phenomenon of statehood.

Can governments really do anything to strengthen families? What are the implications of different policies for both governments and families? Based on his family-policy responsibilities in Hong Kong and the U.S., the author brings his own personal historical and international lessons of experience for consideration by the proposed Hong Kong commission on family-friendly policies. Competing advocates of family policies might share common historical misunderstandings and value assumptions but they can differ in their definitions of family failure and how government can help families directly through general policies or through problem-specific advocacy groups. In addition to providing the first although abbreviated history of Hong Kong's Urban Family Life Survey of the 1960s, the author proposes three charges to be included in the current commission's terms of reference and work plan.

Статья представляет собой полемический отзыв на монографию И.А. Миролюбова «Династическая политика императора Константина Великого». Книга выносит на научную дискуссию ряд тезисов, среди которых положение о резком разрыве династической политики Константина с практиками эпохи тетрархии Диоклетиана и гипотеза о том, что в царствование первого христианского августа власть находилась не в руках одного человека, но всей императорской фамилии. Рассматривается общая структура работы, анализируются основные аргументы автора, обозначаются перспективные направления дальнейших исследований процесса трансформации римской государственности на заре позднеантичной эпохи. The article is a polemical review of I.A. Mirolyubov’s monograph “Dynastic Policy of Emperor Constantine the Great”. The book brings to the academic discussion several topics, including the thesis that the dynastic policy of Constantine sharply breaks with the practices of Diocletian’s tetrarchy and the hypothesis that during the reign of the first Christian Augustus, the state authority laid not in the hands of one person, but in the entire imperial family. The review examines the general structure of the work, analyzes the main arguments of the author, and outlines some promising directions for further research into the process of the transformation of the Roman Empire at the dawn of Late Antiquity.
