Abstract:
Studies on China’s new housing regime primarily focus on state and market as major provision mechanisms and the role of family assistance is largely ignored. This paper explores how family resources help Chinese young professionals in their pathways to homeownership by drawing on qualitative interviews done in Beijing. It was found that young professionals who managed to secure parental help usually came from middle-class families, with parents who were public-sector professionals and managers benefiting from the state’s generous housing reforms in the 1990s. As a result of these intergenerational transfers, housing advantages of these middle-class parents were reproduced among their younger generation, making it easier for them to become homeowners. They might also exacerbate the pre-existing housing inequality. These transfers were made possible in the unique family context with frequent reciprocal exchanges of help and care, which was strengthened by the country’s one-child policy. The new housing regime, characterised by the neoliberal shift of the state’s role and the house price inflation, also enhanced the necessity of relying on family resources.

Abstract:
Economic turmoil and war constitute the main engines fuelling migration in the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1980. The development of migration is accompanied by remittance transfers that impact on the country. The most common use of remittances are to satisfy basic needs and fund specific family events that can include buying land, house construction and opening businesses along with consumption (education, health…). The direct transfer of material goods, such as cars and medical & IT materials, also plays a major role. While most remittances are not used to cover investments; funding education and family wellbeing can support growth and development.

Abstract:
The research was carried out on the material of the essay by Joseph Brodsky "A guide to the renamed city", "One and a half rooms", and the novel by Orhan Pamuk "Istanbul : the city of memories". The purpose of the article is to identify common ways of creating an image of a house in the works of Joseph Brodsky and Orhan Pamuk as one of the key images in the literatures of the world. In this case, the word "house" includes all dictionary meanings: dynasty, clan; residential building; a place where people live, united by common interests, conditions of existence; your home; family, people living together, their household; as well as such figurative meanings as society, city, country. Conclusions: both authors traced the expansion of the semantics of the image of the house, which finds its expression in the sequential inclusion of a larger group of people localized in a wider space. Since groups of people, living in one city or in one country, due to metaphorical transfers, can be called families (differing in composition)/, then, respectively, the city and country in which these families live, as a result of metonymic transfers, can acquire the meanings of houses differing in size.

Abstract:
Despite the continuing preference for homeownership, it has become increasingly difficult for young adults to own a home in Britain. House prices have increased faster than real earnings between the mid-1990s and the 2010s, resulting in significantly deteriorated affordability. Mortgage products have also become less accessible, as a large deposit has been required to secure the loan after the financial crisis of 2008/09. Previous studies point to the increasing role of intergenerational transfers in filling this gap. Some young adults obtain help from family to become homeowners, either receiving monetary support or by saving through living at the parental home. Using the Wealth and Assets Survey, this study attempts to examine the effect of these two types of family financial support on young adults’ homeownership circumstances, and controlling for other characteristics such as parental homeownership. First, it examines the characteristics of homeowners among young adults cross-sectionally using logistic regression. Second, by focusing on the non-homeowner subsample it analyses the effect of direct (money) and indirect (co-residence) family support on young adults’ entry to homeownership in the six-year period using discrete-time event history analysis. The results show that chances of young adults’ homeownership between 2008/10 and 2014/16 are very much tied to family support. The odds of becoming homeowners who have received direct or indirect support are found to be three times higher, even after accounting for other characteristics.

Abstract:
The translocal mode of labor migration between the Republic of Dagestan and the Arctic and subarctic cities of Western Siberia gives rise to specific practices of materiality associated with the transportation of things between sending and receiving societies. Food products in this series occupy the most prominent place both in terms of the scale of transfers and in terms of their importance in the daily life of migrants from Dagestan in northern cities. The article analyzes various options and mechanisms for the movement of meat and meat products through Dagestan migrant networks. Attention will be paid to the movement of meat as a multi-stage process - from its preparation in Dagestan to the organization of a storage system in a migrant's family. In this case, both commercial transfers and family and compatriot parcels will be of interest, since in both cases similar schemes can be used and the same networks are involved. Meat, intended primarily for migrants, becomes a migrant itself in the process of shipment, its appearance in the place of migration is endowed with meanings and characteristics associated with migration between these regions as a whole. Through the role and scale of the use of Dagestan meat in the daily practices of migrants' nutrition, the article demonstrates one of the aspects of constructing the translocal world of Dagestanis working in Arctic cities. In particular, of interest are the reciprocity regime both within the migrant community and between migrants and non-migrants in Dagestan, as well as the construction of symbolic representations of an abandoned house and a house built in migration, reflection on the degree of complementarity of the material worlds of Dagestan and the north, their fundamental differences and benefits.

Abstract:
A place to live is an important requirement for students because where they live they can rest after carrying out the process of learning activities during campus or after doing other activities. For that they need a place to live, whether they choose to live with their family for those who have a family in the city where the college is located or a boarding house that suits their needs. A boarding house is a type of rental room that is rented (booked) for a certain period of time. Generally, a room rental is carried out for a period of one year and has a function as a temporary residence. The function of this boarding house is what makes migrant students prefer alternative boarding houses because of the cost and time saving considerations because a nearby place will be the initial destination for someone to move. The boarding house has a positive function, namely a place as a temporary house, a place to study, and a place to rest. If it is related to the function of boarding houses, it is found that there are many phenomena of moving boarding houses carried out by tenants. In order to get a boarding house as desired, there are several factors that students may consider before deciding which boarding house to choose. This study aims to determine the effect of promotion on student decisions in choosing boarding houses in Tulungagung.

Abstract:
Two women have become mothers. They both make art. They both grew up in a family with a sibling labelled as disabled. Ted, a visual artist, has made photographic and video work about her youngest sister. Marieke, an ethnographic filmmaker, created a short film about her eldest brother which fuelled her PhD about non-normative family lives. Intrigued by motherhood and sisterhood they start writing letters, through which they bring their memories, thoughts, artistic creations into life. This arts-based study is about entangled motherhood—i.e., the entanglement of mother-sister-daughter roles and the intergenerational entanglement of the present, past, and future—in the context of encounters with difference and care. By writing letters as a way of acting on the world and situating themselves within things, they intend to open up new forms of knowledge production, moving away from medicalized and binary ways of studying (growing up in) families with a labelled family member.

Abstract:
This research explored the changes that may have occurred in attitudes of people in Saudi Arabia toward their dwellings due to the mandatory quarantine from COVID-19. Two online surveys, one from before the lockdown and one after the lockdown assessed residents’ space requirements. A follow up in-person survey asked about specific aspects of their homes and how their impression of home had changed during the lockdown. It was found that based on their lockdown experiences, residents were moving away from traditional cultural activities such as hospitality and trending toward spaces that would function for family activities such as studying, work from home and entertainment. Further research should examine if these trends remain after former outside pursuits resume.

Abstract:
Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics show that over 40% of all Australian children moved at least one time in the census period from 1996 to 2001 (ABS, 2001). The literature varies in the impact that this has on children. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between residential relocation, resilience and the emotional, behavioural and academic adjustment of children 8-12 years of age who had moved. Risk factors as identified in the literature as well as the relative impact of resilience were examined. By studying how adjustment occurs in the context of resilience, possible areas for prevention and intervention may be developed for the large numbers of children who move. Results showed that the sample population was in the normal range in academic and behavioural terms. The sample was found to have repeated more grades than average; however the children did not exhibit significant behavioural or emotional consequences. A number of demographic factors have been indicated in the literature as affecting adjustment after residential relocations, yet these were generally not found to be significantly associated with adjustment for this study population. Socioeconomic status was the only factor other than resilience to have been significantly associated with adjustment. Possibly due to the developmental stage of the participants, only the resilience subscales of interpersonal strength and school functioning were found to be significant in their positive association with adjustment, leading to fewer behavioural and academic problems. While the children in this study have all had the potential stress of moving house, the demographic characteristics of this sample would suggest that they might not have had to encounter multiple life challenges or adversities. This conclusion may help explain the lack of significant effects of demographic factors on the adjustment of the children in this sample. Results highlight the importance of good schooling and that the core business of schools in building and enhancing the intellectual functioning of children, is a vital component in the development of resilience. These findings suggest that different aspects of resilience may be important for different developmental stages and different life stressors. The distinction between cause and effect when examining resilience factors is discussed and it is suggested that outcomes in one context may be treated as influences upon outcomes in another context.

Abstract:
Abstract The Times Group has undergone growth and transformation which is unparalleled. The author traces an unencumbered growth and immensely thrilling 181-year-old journey of this humongous media house. The Times Group started out in the year 1838 as Bombay Journal of Commerce, which was later Indianized, once the British were ousted from the country and metamorphosed to a full-fledged family-owned business run by Dalmias followed by the Sahu Jain family. It is under the patronage of this family that the Times Group grew to become the conglomerate it is today. The group not only withstood the uncertainty and challenges of the changing times, but also has its own business tale to tell. The Jains have transformed the company into a major media behemoth spanning print, television, radio, and Internet. The group today owns multiple publications, TV channels, radio stations, and webportals. The group has also branched out to other business areas such realestate, advertising, matrimony, etc. The author in this book has delved deep into the history of the organization and has given a detailed analysis of what resulted in the genesis of the group, to its dissection into subsidiaries, to the launch of new divisions, diversification, product launches, joint ventures, market domination, and what were the major strategic business milestones the group achieved till date. The author met Vineet Jain and tried to understand the business model of the organization.

Abstract:
George Heywood was born in Huddersfield in 1788 and moved to Manchester in 1809. He started with a job at William Hyde’s grocery shop on Market Street as a journeyman grocer but stayed only three weeks before moving to work for the grocer and widow, Ann Owen, with whom he soon became romantically involved. Their relationship forms a central focus of Heywood’s diary. Although Heywood appeared infatuated with his employer, his feelings were not reciprocated with anything like the same degree of fervour and he also came up against opposition from Owen’s family and friends. After leaving Ann’s employment in 1811 he continued to court her for the next three years but failed to achieve his twin desires of marriage and taking over the Owen family business. He finally redirected his sights instead towards Betty Bowyer, a servant at the house of John and Elizabeth Jones’ where he worked and lodged after leaving Owen. In 1815, Heywood agreed to form a business partnership with one of his fellow journeyman grocers at the Jones’s, Robert Roberts, who died not long after leaving George and Betty in sole charge of the enterprise.

"curriculum, they are rarely valued, taken seriously, or perceived to represent a valid scientific or professional basis for the practice of medicine. What impli-cation does this value pattern have for a specialty which claims comprehen-siveness and response to patient experience as one axis of expertise? The third and fourth year of the traditional medical school curriculum represents a different scenario. Typically, it is structured as a sequence of assignments to departmental domains. These are spheres of control and influence through which students pass on their way through required and elective territories. The clinical years belie the goal of a consistent integrated theme governing the educational processes of becoming a physician. On the contrary, the quasi-proprietary aura and the ethnocentrism and evangelism of various subfields of medicine make the student appear in some ways like a potential customer moving from sales exhibit to sales exhibit rather than as a future professional who, at all times, is enveloped in a climate of inquiry, relativity of knowledge, and invitations to raise new questions and to show intellectual skepticism. The structure of the curriculum during the clinical years gives the impres-sion of a topography with terrain features which range from those clearly visible and marked, to some which are barely identifiable. The traditional major specialties in medicine are clearly visible landmarks through which the student must pass as he travels through the curriculum. As Goode (1957, p. 196) observed, most professional programs "almost isolate their recruits from important lay contacts (and) furnish new ego ideals and reference groups." Some career options in medicine appear as optional places to visit during the third and fourth year while others are either not available or require special arrangements. Family medicine, a relatively recent arrival on the specialty scene, appears in different ways in different medical schools. Only rarely, however, is it a regular, required experience for all students. Lacking the structural reality of claimed time and space constitutes a message as far as student experience and student perceptions are concerned as long as alloca-tion of student time in the third and fourth year curriculum reflects prestige and power among medical specialties, family medicine will not fare competi-tively in its bid for student choices. The House Staff Many of the observations offered in this paper have in one form or another been made by medical educators or researchers as part of a variety of com-mentaries about medical education.

Abstract:
This chapter recounts how, once he had moved out of Sutton House, Daniel Sutton became itinerant, moving from one West End street to another in quick succession. In 1779, he announced that he had been 'engaged by the Governors of the General Inoculation Dispensary' and he had moved nearby to Southampton Street in Bloomsbury. Although he was still inoculating on his own account on his usual terms of 10 guineas, to have any kind of official post was out of character. Times had changed and he made it clear in yet another newspaper advertisement that he was well aware of the waning of his celebrity. Announcing his appointment to the dispensary, he felt it necessary to plead that he was the 'identical person who, in 1767 (by royal approbation) was complimented with a grant of the following honorary Patent for his singular and new method of inoculation'. This method, he claimed, was now 'very materially improved'. Once again the family coat of arms awarded to himself and his family was evoked. The chapter then looks at the publication in 1796 of Daniel's account of his discoveries as an inoculator.

Abstract:
Franz Joseph Gall, who was born into a large family in the small German town of Tiefenbronn in 1758. Often called Joseph (not Franz) during his formative years, he enjoyed nature, especially watching and catching birds and wild animals, and also collecting specimens. He began his studies in the house of the brother of an uncle, a priest in the nearby town of Weil der Stadt, before moving on to a lyceum in Baden and then on to Bruchsal. Wanting a secular career, he enrolled in the University of Strasbourg in 1777, where he studied anatomy and medicine. He would later reflect that the good memorizers at Strasbourg and of his earlier years had a correlative physical feature: large, bulging eyes. But at the time, he seemed committed to time-honored theories of mind and brain. Completing his medical education in Vienna in 1785, he aspired to become a physician to the wealthy in the city.

He died in New York at the age of 85. After a moving visit to Oświęcim in 1991, Schwartz established the Auschwitz Jewish Center Foundation in 1995. In 1998, after years of dialogue with the Polish government and the Polish Jewish community, the Hevrah Lomdei Mishnayot Synagogue was the first Jewish communal property returned to the Jewish community under a law passed by the Polish Parliament. The Jewish community of Bielsko-Biala, which reclaimed the synagogue, in turn donated it to the foundation which renovated and opened it and the adjacent Kornreich family house as the Auschwitz Jewish Center in 2000. A pioneer of Polish-Jewish reconciliation and the preservation of Jewish heritage in Poland, Schwartz created several related non-profit organizations. Of the Auschwitz Jewish Center, he once said: 'The most important thing is it’s an expression of life, it is vitality, the fact that ashes can rise up and really be re-formed as life again.'...

Abstract:
Jeannette Brown’s career has included accomplishments in industry, academia, and publishing. Her claim to fame is working in two different pharmaceutical firms, where she was able to contribute her skill to the research teams who produced several marketable drugs. She was also able to mentor minorities to encourage them to enter the field of chemistry, both as part of a corporate effort and as a volunteer. Jeannette Brown was born May 13, 1934, in Fordham Hospital in the Bronx, New York. She was the only child of Ada May Fox and Freddie Brown. She was born in the middle of the Depression, and times were tough. Her father worked a number of jobs in order to feed his family, including shining shoes on the street. Finally, when Jeannette was five, her father got a job as a superintendent in a building in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan. This section of Manhattan was just becoming a home for middle-class blacks moving up from Harlem. Since her father was a super, he had a basement apartment in the building. One of the tenants in the house was Dr. Arthur Logan, who became Jeannette’s doctor when she became very ill. Jeannette was in and out of the hospital many times, and she remembers asking Dr. Logan how she could become a doctor. He told her that she would have to study science. Jeannette was only five or six at the time, but that conversation impressed her and she immediately decided to become a scientist. When Jeannette started school at the age of six, she went to the neighborhood public school, which all children did at the time. The children in the school were mostly black, and some of them taunted her because she was interested in being a good student. Her father decided that the only way that she was going to get a good education was for him to try to get a job as a superintendent in a white neighborhood so that Jeannette could go to the mostly white schools.

Abstract:
In this book I have attempted to create a new agenda for the study of Britain in the last millennium BC. The book consciously sets out, in its structure and content, to direct attention away from the nature of the archaeological record towards the nature of past human societies. This does not mean I am not interested in the archaeological record, and readers will have noted there is a considerable amount of detail in the text, perhaps too much for some people; but the data has to be examined in relation to the people who lived in a particular place at a particular time: ‘the archaeologist is digging up, not things, but people’ (Wheeler 1954b: v). The objective has been to outline the overall constraints of place and time (Chapter 2) and to see how these created a distinctive archaeological record that differed not only from other areas of Britain, but which varied significantly within the region. I examine how people created communities (Chapter 3) and explore how the mechanisms used to organize human relationships, within that society, changed through time. These changes were partly brought about through events outside their control, but always in a way that was affected by their own particular circumstances. I consider how the most ubiquitous architectural form in later prehistory, the house, was used to structure social relationships on a daily basis in relation to the family, and how this provided a template for thinking about the world (Chapter 4). The analysis concludes with an examination of how these societies considered individual freedom and connectedness, and how the complex variability of individual agency provides an internal dynamic to social change that was influenced by external events, but not led by them (Chapter 5). When I originally conceived of this book the structure was reversed: I started with the individual and worked up to the organization of the larger landscapes. At first sight this may sound a more sensible way of presenting the evidence, moving from small-scale structures to large-scale processes, but during the writing of the book I found this did not seem to work.

Abstract:
A wood chip combustion behavior in a turntable type moving bed combustor is numerically analyzed in order to understand the fundamental combustion behavior in the combustor. An experiment is also carried out to compare the experimental data with numerical results and estimate the performance of the numerical analysis. Wood is used as building materials in most countries, and wooden house is the most popular in Japan. In some countries such as Japan, the period of durability of wooden house is for several decades because of high humidity and warm weather. A great amount of wooden waste is disposed and buried every year. From a viewpoint of effective use of energy, these kind of wooden wastes should be converted to valuable source of energy by efficient combustion operation. It is however difficult to operate the wooden waste conversion system because this waste includes other material such as plastics, plaster board, stone and soil. These kinds of intermingled material cannot be separated easily from wooden waste. In this study, we develop the turntable type moving bed combustor which effectively discharges the intermingled material from the combustor. We also develop the numerical model for the analysis of the combustor. The turbulent gas flow in the combustor is described by k-ε two-equation model and a momentum exchange between gas and moving bed of wood chip is considered. A solid phase is assumed to be a Newtonian fluid. Gas and solid phase temperature are calculated with considering convective and radiative heat transfers. Devolatilization reaction of wood is calculated by a first order chemical reaction model. Chemical reactions of gas and solid surface are also calculated with considering both chemical and gas film diffusion rates. Governing equations above-mentioned are simultaneously solved by control volume method. The geometry of the combustor is 470 mm in diameter and 1,500 mm in height. The combustion air is introduced tangentially from side wall. Wood chip is fed by screw feeder from side wall. Wood chip feed rate is 50 kg/hr, initial temperature of wood chip is 293 K and air ratio is 1.2. Numerical results are fairly in good agreement with experimental data. High temperature and low oxygen gas which contains unburned CO near centerline region of the combustor is observed in both experimental and numerical results. The mixing promotion of this fuel containing gas and oxygen rich gas near sidewall region is a problem of the development of efficient energy conversion system. This combustor would be one of the heat sources for a steam-driven electric power plant utilizing wooden waste as the source of fuel in local area.
