Full textAbstract:
I use a brand of social contract theory derived from David Gauthier to delimit precisely what might be permissible in the methods of conception and gestation of a child. More specifically, Gauthier posits a rule that is supposed to govern behavior among individuals prior to but in anticipation of the rise of social interaction. I argue that this rule can be appropriately applied to the interactions between a parent and her unborn child. I review other social contract models in an effort to show that Gauthier's is preferable to these. I also address other accounts concerned with parental obligations to the unborn, to see how these fare against Gauthier's. I conclude that, because of its breadth of applicability, as well as its plausibility, Gauthier's model is a powerful force for guiding us through these issues.

The main purpose of this work is to analyse how teachers perceive and deal withdiversity, where they put the limit between «normality» and «otherness», how theyrelate to the documentation proceeding from public institutions.Using an ethnographic methodology based on participant observation and semistructuredinterviews, I shall apply Pierre Bourdieu's theories about social reproductionand distinction to a high school in Skåne, with the purpose of better understanding thedifference between change and reconversion in dealing with «otherness» in the form of«learning disabilities».This study aims at better understanding how «otherness», «diversity», and «plurality»are categorized, hierarchically organized, considered as «distortions», «defects»,«syndromes» to be cured, when instead they could actually constitute means toovercome the ancestral «fear of the other», the rejection of «complexity» and to fill theperceived gap between theory and practice, between the «school of diversity andplurality» and the school of «kunskapsmål», «performance», «driven-ness», bothpresent in the current Läroplan (LPF-94) and likely to be found in the new one.Finally, this analysis tries to point at the necessity to question the unquestionable. Thatis, to question the values that are considered to be established for good and foreverybody, understanding them as historical products, not as philosophical a priori. Farfrom being historical invariables, those values and principles are the result of actualpolitical fights, even of revolutions, and of debates occurred for centuries or evenmillennia. School has been focusing on having them internalised and naturalised,instead of developing adequate instruments to let them be critically understood,reflected upon, talked about, and of course experienced in their many contexts.The study's main result lies in individuating the structural and individual factors thatallow the teachers to deal with «otherness» and «diversity» as a problem instead as aresource, underlining the symbolic violence implicit in the process of naturalisation ofvalues and principles.

Winsor, Jennifer. "Creating social reciprocity : the role of trust network reproduction and social learning : evidence from a medium-sized family firm in Germany." Thesis, Edinburgh Napier University, 2017. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/977842.
Full textAbstract:
This research introduces a framework for explaining why managing family members create a shared understanding of caring and being cared for with their nonfamily employees, called ‘Social Reciprocity'. Applying an embedded case study design, using grounded theory method, this research adds to the understanding of the social mechanisms of internal stakeholder management in family firms, which have been largely ignored. The emergent framework proposes that the ability of family members to build trusting relationships with employees, based on cognitive and affective trusts contributes to the creation of social reciprocity. Affective trust, in particular, has a direct and moderating role in the creation of social reciprocity on emotional and instrumental level. The moderating role of affective trust is considered a valuable finding; since it emphasizes the role of trust as a meta theoretical concept. The developed framework suggests that affective trust initiates a social learning process that leads to a positive attribution bias, i.e. an automatic positive attribution of managing family members' actions as being based in benevolence and genuine care. Furthermore, social learning in the form of trust network reproduction emerges as contributory to the diffusion of social reciprocity to lower hierarchical levels. Analysis of data demonstrates that employees with little direct interactions with managing family members develop trusted weak ties to managing family members, with similar levels of cognitive and affective trust. This finding is particularly valuable as it challenges traditional network theory, which argues for frequent personal interaction to be necessary in creating trust ties. This thesis contributes to theoretical and methodological knowledge in several ways. First, it advances understanding of the social dynamics and mechanisms of internal stakeholder engagement in and SME family firm context. Second, the developed framework demonstrates the importance that concepts form multiple disciplines such as psychology, social psychology and sociology have on the development of theories in management research. Third, trust network reproduction and upper network stability emerged as causal mechanisms of potentially meta theoretical value that may have applicability on a wider range of topics in management research. Lastly, this thesis demonstrates the value of grounded theory in developing theory in management research.

McInnis, Shelley, and n/a. "An experiment with radical pedagogy." University of Canberra. Education, 1989. http://erl.canberra.edu.au./public/adt-AUC20060928.122201.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis is an analysis of some research undertaken with
students in a unit on human sexuality. It is a critical account
of an experiment with 'radical' pedagogy which deliberately
forsakes the pessimistic determinism of social reproduction
theory in education and assumes the fundamental optimism of
resistance theory, wherein human actors are capable of
penetrating oppressive ideology and practice and working towards
emancipation and social change.
The experiment is an attempt to implement radical pedagogy
in a particular classroom, and the body of the thesis consists of
a critique of data collected from participants' notes and
transcriptions of video and audio-tapes of thirteen, two�hour
class sessions. The first chapter of the thesis outlines the
nature of a pedagogical style which could be described as
counter�hegemonic, non-reproductive, or liberatory, and it
specifies the elements of a 'radical' approach to classroom
process and content, which is distinguished from a 'traditional'
one. Subsequent chapters present a critical analysis of actual
classroom 'content' and 'process', which is based on a study of
reconstructed sessional data, and the final chapter discusses the
factors which limited the 'success' of the experiment, and
attempts to draw some conclusions about the liberatory
possibilities of radical pedagogy.

Full textAbstract:
Students with parents with different levels of education motivate their choice of Växjö University differently. They who have parents with at least three years academic studies motivate more frequently their choice with the program they are studying while those who have parents with lower studies are more inclined to motivate their studies with contacts and nearness to their hometown. I found this in a survey study with 201 respondents involved. The result was followed by interviews on respondents from the survey study. The interviewees were four women whose parents had different levels of education, two with parents with higher education and two with parents with lower education. The interviews were in this way limited to female students only. The conclusion is that the difference in how the students motivate their choice of Växjö University can partly be explained by the theory called “könskontraktet” which says, women from higher social classes want to brake out from the old gender roles, and that makes them value education and carrier, while those who are from lower social classes accept the old traditions between genders which makes them value family and safety. This don´t need to lead to reproduction of social classes and that it goes from parents to children if there is good accessibility to the universities and you can get higher education without moving a long distance.

Full textAbstract:
In 1986, the Carnegie Forum on Education and the Economy published A Nation Prepared: Teachers for the 21st Century in which it recommended that a National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) be established to ascertain and institute criteria for teacher excellence (Steiner, 1995). No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) mandated that every classroom employ a "highly qualified teacher" (No Child Left Behind, 2001a); moreover, NCLB articulated the relationship between improving student achievement and higher standards for qualifying classroom teachers (Rotberg, Futrell & Lieberman, 1998). Research conducted in Miami-Dade County supports Florida's use of National Board Certification (NBC) as an "effective signal of teacher quality"(CNA Corporation, 2004, p.1). Critical theorist, Michael Apple, emphasized the role of education as an agent for the maintenance of hegemony (Apple, 2004). However, Apple further posited that the actual bureaucracy of school – the institution of education itself – is reflective of the same consumerist ideology of society, thus making the hegemony even more complete. Using the aforementioned theoretical construct, the researcher examined the development of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS), the distribution of Nationally Board Certified Teachers (NBCTs) in a central Florida school district, and their professional responsibilities as a means of examining whether this mechanism for identifying "highly qualified teachers" achieves its stated aim of providing every student with access to a "highly qualified" teacher, as is legislated and funded per NCLB.Ed.D.

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med denna kvalitativa intervjustudie var att med hjälp av sociologiska teorier undersöka orsakerna till att maskrosbarn trots en destruktiv uppväxtmiljö kan utvecklas till socialt fungerande människor. Maskrosbarnen i denna studie har vuxit upp med missbruk och/eller psykisk sjukdom hos föräldrar i barndomen. Data samlades in via semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra olika teman: det sociala arvet, skola och arbete, socialt nätverk samt hälsa och välmående. Vilket vi sedan analyserade med hjälp av de teoretiska tolkningsramarna, Antonovskys teori KASAM och Bourdieus teori om Klassreproduktion. Resultaten visade att förekomsten av trygghetspersoner i barndomen samt möjligheten att uppleva en annan familjedynamik och miljö än deras egen hemmiljö har påverkat dem positivt. Även deras avhållsamma inställning till alkohol och droger samt deras starka ansvarskänsla har påverkat deras totala sociala kapital positivt.The purpose of this qualitative interview study was to research with the help of sociological theories the reasons why resilient children despite a destructive childhood can evolve to social functioning humans. Resilient children in this study have grown up with addiction and/or mental illness among parents in childhood. Data was collected by semi structured interviews with four different themes: the social heritage, education and work, social network and health and well-being. Which we analyzed with the help of the theoreticalframeworks, Antonovskys theory Salutogenesis and Bourdieus Reproduction theory. The results showed that the presence of safety figures in childhood as well as the opportunity to experience a different family dynamic and another environment than their own home environment has affected them positively. Even their abstinence approach to alcohol and drugs, and that they have a strong sense of responsibility has affected their overall social capital positively.

Full textAbstract:
Recently, India has come under increasing scrutiny for its failure to improve food and nutrition security (FNS). Prominent governmental and nongovernmental development strategies addressing FNS include promoting horticultural crops to increase incomes, distributing food, and providing nutritional education. These programs, however, have seen mixed results. Analyzing qualitative data collected in the summer of 2013, this paper examines programs in Uttarakhand, India where hunger has been eradicated, yet malnutrition persists. I suggest that the intersection of horticultural development with existing gendered labor practices helps explain why malnutrition remains a problem despite high program functionality. Specifically, I find that inequitable gendered labor burdens are largely responsible for poor eating practices and lowered nutritional levels. I argue that interventions to improve FNS reinscribe and legitimize these burdens by promulgating a discourse situating the problem with women, whose lack of education or poor time management is seen as the source of the problem. Additionally, I find that horticultural development leads to increased reliance on market-based foods, which villagers find less nutritious. Following Mansfield (2011) I employ the concept of food as a “vector of intercorporeality” (Stassart and Whatmore 2003:449) to unpack why health perceptions are entwined in shifting landscapes of agricultural production and food consumption. I bring this conceptualization into conversation with the notion of social reproduction, investigating the human and nonhuman bodies that produce economic, ecological, and health outcomes. I argue that who, or what, these bodies are and the relations in which they are entangled matter to both material and social concerns.

The dissertation provides an analysis of social reproduction in the system of education of Lithuania exploring causes and processes of early withdrawal of Roma children from education in Vilnius. The work presents an original model of the empirical research where early withdrawal is approached as a process taking place in an educational field that is defined by power relations. The research undertaken approached the research phenomenon from several levels of analysis. On the macro/societal level, the analysis focused on the education indicators of different generations of the Roma ethnic group and their changes in 2001–2011. On the micro/individual level, the procedural character of early withdrawal from education was observed analysing experiences of the first two years of participation by Roma children from Kirtimai in education. On the meso/field level, the early withdrawal of children from education was analysed as a process in social space, i.e. as a strategic agency of children that is constructed through interpersonal relations with other actors involved in the educational process (parents, teachers, employees of the child's rights supervision authorities, etc.). The dissertation underlines the important role social inequality plays in the early withdrawal of Roma children from education – the opportunities of Roma children to take part in education were not equal to the opportunities of other children, however, these substantial inequalities were disregarded in the...

Full textAbstract:
No Estado moderno se, por um lado, parece intrínseca a uma ordem jurídica a sua pretensão coercitiva em relação aos diferentes aspectos da vida social, resta evidente que tal ordem deve ser dotada de um atributo de autoridade que lhe garanta primazia em relação a outras ordens (morais, religiosas, pessoais), para que se justifique dotá-la de atributos tão singulares como a coercitividade. A essa autoridade, contudo, no contexto democrático - mais especificamente no contexto do Estado Democrático de Direito contemporâneo - cumpre dotar-se de uma legitimidade ou, ao menos, uma aparência de legitimidade suficiente para imprimir efetividade àquela autoridade. Nesse sentido, o presente trabalho busca redefinir, a partir da perspectiva bourdieuniana, a percepção dos principais argumentos de legitimidade e autoridade do Direito - visto não só enquanto ordenamento jurídico, mas principalmente a partir de sua produção no ambiente legislativo, tantas vezes ignorada pela doutrina jurídica que habitualmente toma o direito posto, já legislado, como ponto de partida, neutralizando as disputas do subcampo legislativo e ignorando, em ampla medida, a questão da legitimidade da produção normativa. A pesquisa demonstra, a partir da perspectiva da Teoria da Reprodução Social de Bourdieu & Passeron (1992) que coloca em cheque toda legitimidade, que é aqui vista como mero efeito de uma autoridade, como a própria democracia é um conceito em disputa, e que a legitimidade das ações legislativas, bem como a dos próprios agentes legislativos não pode ser pressuposta.If, in modern State, the coercive pretension seems intrinsic to the legal order in respect to all the different aspects of social life, it is also evident that such an order must have an authority which guarantees its primacy over other (such as moral, religious or personal orders), so that we are able to justify its singular attributes. To this authority, however, in the democratic context of contemporary State (under the Rule of Law), we must also have at least a notion of legitimacy, enough to give effectiveness to that authority. In this context, the present work seeks to redefine, from the perspective of Bourdieu\'s theory, the perception of the main arguments to law\'s legitimacy and authority - especially in aspects of the legislative work, usually overseen by juridical doctrine that takes law for granted, neutralizing the disputes in legislative field and ignoring to some extent the different critics to legislative legitimacy. Our research demonstrates, from the perspective of the Social Reproduction Theory, developed by Bourdieu & Passeron (1992) and which questions all legitimacy, seen as mere effect of authority, how democracy itself is a concept in dispute, and that the legitimacy of the legislative actions, and that of its agents, can\'t be taken for granted.

Under 50- och 60-talet i USA växte bilismen och städer byggde väldigt mycket motorvägar. Trots detta började då i Washington, D.C. det förlopp som skulle leda till att de fick en tunnelbana på 70-talet. Denna uppsats studerar hur denna osannolika och oväntade tunnelbana kunde uppstå med hjälp av teorin om stigberoende.Genom att använda teorin om stigberoende som ett analytiskt verktyg, identifierar denna uppsats följande: (1) vilka små händelser, även kallade formativa moment, som startade processen att ge D.C. en tunnelbana, (2) den resulterande kedja av händelser, även kallade reaktiva sekvenser, vilka ledde tunnelbanerörelsen till den punkt där den upplevde självförstärkande processer. (3) Dessa självförstärkande processer, vilka slutligen resulterade i uppkomsten av tunnelbanan i D.C.Uppsatsen identifierar tre relativt små händelser som genom olika kedjor av reaktiva sekvenser leder till att kongressen, år 1965, beviljar tunnelbanan pengar vilket, genom efterföljande självförstärkande processer, säkerställer tunnelbanans uppkomst.During the 50's and the 60's automobile usage in the United States grew significantly and cities constructed extensive highway networks. In spite of these trends, key events in the 1950's initiated a process that would result in the construction of the Washington, D.C. Metro System – one of the first metro systems built since the 1920's. By applying the Path Dependence Theory and examining narratives of actors and events in Washington, D.C. that influenced the development of the metro during that time, this paper shows how this unlikely and unexpected process occurred.Using the Path Dependence Theory as an analytical tool, this paper identifies the following: (1) certain small events, also known as critical junctures, which started the process of giving DC a metro; (2) the resulting chain of events, also known as reactive sequences, which allowed the metro (movement) to reach the point at which it experienced self-reinforcing processes; (3) these self-reinforcing processes, which finally resulted in the genesis of the metro in DC.The paper concludes that three relatively small events, through different chains of reactive sequences, led to Congress granting the metro funds in 1965 – which then brought about self- reinforcing processes that ensured the metro's genesis.

Full textAbstract:
The commodification of culture, space, and resources is incentivized by neoliberal urbanism. In response, we have seen an attempt to develop collectively organized, oppositional spaces within urban places. The tensions that arise when considering the production of commons in the development of the neoliberal city are the central focus of this paper. As I will observe, these spaces are subjected to commodification as they become increasingly de-politicized through neoliberal ideologies. In order to theorize about these contradictory elements, I observe a makerspace in Richmond, Virginia called HackRVA. Specifically, I consider HackRVA as an urban commons. Through in-depth interviews and participant observation, I consider how HackRVA engages with the neoliberal city of Richmond and how the organization and maintenance of their space and their community reflects commoning as social reproduction. I find that HackRVA’s relationship to the city is complicated as the community within the space both contests and assimilates to the creative economy.

A Função Social da Propriedade, em geral, é compreendida exclusivamente como um instrumento de racionalização da propriedade privada em favor do campo social. Ocorre, que essa perspectiva instrumentalista do direito não abrange os processos históricos e sociais formadores deste princípio. Neste sentido, se faz necessário o estudo deste instituto a partir da análise destes processos históricos e de sua materialidade. Desta forma, este trabalho busca contribuir com uma perspectiva crítica da função social da propriedade a partir da sua análise histórica e de seus processos formais e materiais como derivados da forma mercadoria e da condensação da luta de classes no Estado capitalista. Para tanto a metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental de caráter analítico e qualitativo. Foi possível observar a vinculação da função social da propriedade com as formas sociais capitalistas o que desafia a compreensão da função social da propriedade como mero instrumento garantidor de direitos, o que justifica a sua não aplicabilidade ainda que seja um princípio constitucionalThe Social Function of Property, in general, is understood exclusively as a private property rationalization instrument in favor of the social field. Nonetheless, this instrumentalist perspective of the law does not cover the historical and social processes forming this principle. In this sense, it is imperative the study of this institute from the analysis of historical and material processes. Thus, this paper seeks to contribute to a critical perspective of the social function of property from its historical analysis and its formal and materials processes as derivatives of the commodity form and condensation of class struggle in the capitalist state. Therefore, the methodology used was the bibliographical and documental research with an analytical and qualitative perspective. It was possible to observe the link between the social function of property with the capitalist social forms which challenges the understanding of the social function of property as a mere instrument guarantor of rights, which justifies its inapplicability although it is a constitutional principle

Atingir o ensino superior brasileiro é uma situação de relativo “sucesso escolar”, pois apenas 15% dos jovens brasileiros o atingem atualmente. A presença de estudantes de classes populares com pouca incorporação dos capitais cultural e econômico é reduzida, mas não excepcional. Em 2012, mais de 70% dos estudantes desse nível provinham dos cortes de renda C, D e E (IBGE). A pesquisa tem por objetivo mapear as condições necessárias ao “sucesso escolar” desses estudantes, apesar dos poucos capitais que conseguem mobilizar. Combinaram-se técnicas quantitativas, a partir da regressão logística com dados do ENEM, para entender os condicionantes do “sucesso escolar”, e qualitativas, com entrevistas e análise de conteúdo. Apesar de o capital cultural ser importante, como mostra a influência dos indicadores que o representam (realização de cursinho, frequência de leitura, etc.), os dados indicam que o capital econômico é ainda mais determinante sobre as chances de sucesso. Cursos que necessitam de nota maior para ingresso filtram candidatos advindos das classes médias e altas, como prevê a teoria da reprodução. As entrevistas mostram que, ao contrário do que predizia a bibliografia sobre o tema, as trajetórias de "sucesso" escolar de agentes oriundos de classes populares se assemelham, apesar da heterogeneidade de disposições, àquelas típicas de frações intelectualizadas da classe média, rápidas e ascendentes, mesmo que apenas após superada a barreira do vestibular.To reach Brazilian higher education is a situation of relative “scholar success”, because merely 15% of Brazilian young person reach it today. The presence of popular class students who have little annexation of cultural and economical capital is reduced, but not rare. In 2012, more than 70% of students in higher education came from economic classes C, D and E (IBGE). The purpose of this research is to map the conditions to get “scholar success”, instead of those students having not much capital to marshal. There are quantitative and qualitative methods. In quantitative method was used logistic regression with National Exam of High School (ENEM) to understand the predicting factors of scholar success. In qualitative method was used with interviews and content analysis. Instead of cultural capital to be important, as shown in variables’ influence which represent it ( preparatory courses, reading habits, etc.), data show that economic capital is more determining in the success odds. Graduation courses that need a higher grade to enter in it selects contesters from middle and higher classes as indicated by the reproduction theory. Interviews show that, instead of reference about the theme, the scholar success trajectories from individuals who have popular class origins are similar to those typical of intellectualized portions of middle class: fast and ascendant, even as only after transposing the barrier of selections exams to university.

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med denna studie är att öka förståelsen för hur rekryterare hanterar svårigheten att bedöma kandidater under anställningsintervjuer. Studiens empiriska material har samlats in genom ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt där sju semistrukturerade intervjuer har genomförts. Intervjupersonerna arbetar med rekrytering i Stockholms län och använder anställningsintervjuer som metod i rekryteringsprocessen. Med hjälp av tidigare forskning och teorier som förklarar likhetseffekten, homosocial reproduktion, haloeffekten samt hur en kompetensbaserad rekrytering går till visar resultatet av studien att intervjupersonernas bedömning av kandidater till stor del baseras på den “personkemi” som uppstår mellan rekryterare och kandidat vid ett första möte. Enligt tidigare forskning tenderar bedömning av kandidater baserat på ett första intryck att å ena sidan utesluta potentiellt starka kandidater och å andra sidan resultera i felrekrytering. Intervjupersonerna var medvetna om denna problematik och har därför utvecklat egna tekniker för att undvika fallgroparna som gör att de riskerar att “döma boken efter omslaget”.The purpose of this study is to increase the understanding of how recruiters handle the difficulty of assessing candidates during job interviews. The empirical material of the study was gathered based on a qualitative approach by which seven semi structured interviews were conducted. The interviewees are recruiting staff in Stockholm County who uses job interviews as a method in the recruitment process. With support by previous research and theory which explains the similar attraction theory, homosocial reproduction, the law of effect and recruitment based on qualifications, the results of the study show that the interviewees assessment of candidates are largely based on “the chemistry” created between the recruiter and the candidate during their first meeting. However, according to previous research, this is an approach that on one hand tends to exclude potentially strong candidates, and on the other hand could result in a recruitment gone wrong. The interviewees were aware of this issue, and have therefore developed their own techniques to avoid the pitfalls which puts them in risk to “judge the book by its cover”.

Full textAbstract:
In this field study, female social workers perspectives have been collected, on interventions regarding sexual and reproductive health in the public sector in Argentina. The purpose was primary empirical and secondary to analyze empirical data using critical theory. The methodology was qualitative and the theoretical framework was created using an abductive approach. Thirteen female social workers were interviewed in the municipality of general Pueyrredón, in the province of Buenos Aires. Empirical data was categorized using the hermeneutic approach; described and analyzed using critical theory. Results presented challenges regarding lack of accessibility, continuity and accountability, from the nation, the province and the municipality. Moreover, results show challenges on how to target vulnerable groups, adolescents, people with low intellectual disability, people from neighboring countries, and from the north of Argentina. In addition, there were challenges on how to increase correct use and use of contraceptives. Suggestions were to make interventions more adaptable and creative. Stressed challenges were regarding male involvement in sexual and reproductive health decisions, gender violence, the patriarchal society, and the macho culture. Critical theory highlighted challenges created by Argentina’s societal structures, structures that contribute to oppression of service users, making them powerless and marginalized. By increasing the knowledge of critical social work theory in social work education, there would be more tools for social workers to use it in practice. When using critical social work theory all levels in a society shall be included. Specific policies and interventions are requested to battle female discrimination.

Full textAbstract:
The development of pre-conception and post-conception reproductive technologies has substantial implications and consequences for women. To better establish the impact of the eugenic and sexist traditions which support the elimination of disability/defect and the propagation of "designer babies," a survey of literature outlining the scientific, feminist, legal, cultural, and social perspectives regarding new reproductive technologies was undertaken. Three conclusions of this review are that while new reproductive technologies are not responsible for the environment which fosters bias and intolerance towards oppressed members of society, they have created eugenic demands by supporting genetic perfection; they have informally displaced women's rights to bodily autonomy in favour of the fetus' or potential future person's rights by supporting fetal personhood; and they have perpetuated sexism within the Indian community in Canada by supporting patriarchal institutions.

Full textAbstract:
This research critically unpacks existing international norm diffusion and domestication theories and amends them, focusing on resistance, agency, and the pivotal role of domestic agents. It argues that domestic agency is marginalized by current theories of international norm diffusion and that current models place undue emphasis on the power of ‘critical States’, which are invariably Western. It is implied, though often explicitly stated, that international norms are created in and spread by Western States. This research argues that while this may be the case, the application of the same limited models create such a situation which hinders instead of helps the understanding of norm diffusion. Arguing that domestic agency is marginalized by current theories of international norm diffusion, this study investigated the SRHR norm in the Philippines as a case study to examine the limitations of current models and the benefits of introducing a local agency approach. This research is divided into two sections: the national and the sub-national, to provide a broad-lens perspective on the specific case of Sexual Health and Reproductive Rights (SRHR) in the Philippines using the framework of norm diffusion. Empiric research was conducted on two levels of analysis: first, a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) of the national-level Congressional deliberations and debates on SRHR from the period of the 8th Congress to the 15th Congress; and second, a micro-comparative analysis of three selected municipalities, namely Manila, Cebu, and Davao, involving a case-study based process-tracing methodology of the local diffusion of the SRHR norm(s).The theoretical critique and empirical case study proved that there are indeed limitations present within current diffusion conventions and furthermore, that local agency is a powerful and understudied tool in norm diffusion.Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales

Full textAbstract:
Whithin the recent human centered development approach, the mission of development's declared aims are alleviating poverty, increasing choices by reducing '
risks'
and empowering women. In line with the human development framework, Reproductive Health program aims at improving women'
s health, enlarging women'
s chices and engendering reproductive rights. The scope of '
empowerment'
is conceptualized as strenthening their capabilities to prevent sexual reproductive health risks, thereby enlarging their reproductive choices whithout reflecting on the role of general political economic structures. this thesis argues that while general health indicators and life choices and rights of poor women are decreasing due to neoliberal shrinkage of social policy and flexible working regimes, the sole focus on reproductive health and rights by development agents is irrelevant. In line with this argument, this study draws upon post-development theory in order to argue that development is a historically specific representation of social reality which permits particular modes of knowing while disqualifying others for perpetuating gobal hegemonic regimes.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Sociologia (área de especialização em Políticas Sociais)Para se descobrir e compreender como questões relativas ao gênero, nomeadamente a opressão sobre as mulheres, poderiam ser moldadas e dinamizadas pela economia-mundo capitalista, esta dissertação debruçou-se sobre uma região periférica do sistema-mundo capitalista, o Brasil, um modelo de controle de trabalho, o escravo, e um acontecimento que envolvia diretamente as mulheres alocadas nesta geografia e empregadas neste modo de produção, a proibição do tráfico internacional de escravos. Com o auxílio das teorias da reprodução social, segunda escravidão e sistema mundial moderno foi possível desenvolver e perceber a dimensão desta problemática, resolvida por meio da análise documental de manuais de agricultura escritos por senhores de escravos no século XIX. Entendeu-se que, conforme a temperatura das disputas políticas e comerciais na economia-mundo aumentava, enquanto também exigia uma maior produção das commodities tropicais, alteravam-se práticas relativas à reprodução de trabalhadores escravizados, as quais envolviam o controle sobre o corpo feminino escravizado. Mais, afirmou-se que a reprodução escravista, e por consequência a opressão sobre as mulheres dela derivada, tem um caráter específico em razão de estar inserida dentro da economia formal escravista. Acentuou-se que, diferentemente do modelo de controle de trabalho assalariado, em que a reprodução dos trabalhadores se realiza numa esfera distinta da esfera produtiva, no modelo de controle de trabalho escravo, a reprodução dos trabalhadores ocorria numa única esfera, que agregava tanto os processos produtivos como os reprodutivos.
Willing to find out and to understand how questions related to gender, namely the oppression of women, could have been shaped and dynamized by the capitalist world-economy, this dissertation focused on a peripherical zone of the capitalist world-system, Brazil, a method of labor control, the slavery, and an event that directly embraced the women allocated in this geography and employed in this mode of production, the prohibition of the international slave trade. Helped by the social reproduction theory, the second slavery theory and the modern world system theory, it was possible to develop and to realize the extension of this problematic, that was solved with a documental analysis based on agriculture manuals written by slave owners in the XIX century. It was perceived that as the temperature of politics and trade disputes in the world-economy got warmer, while also demanding a greater production of tropical commodities, the social practices related to the reproduction of enslaved workers were affected, which involved the control over the enslaved female body. Furthermore, the oppression laced with the reproductive capacity of enslaved women revealed a specificity due to being inserted within the formal slave economy. It was noticed that, differently from the waged labor in which the reproduction of the workers took place in a distinct sphere from the productive sphere, in the slave method of labor control, the reproduction of workers occurred in a single sphere, which aggregated both productive such as reproductive process.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the thesis was to explore the magnitude of inequity in accessibility to initial formal education, continuing adult education, and work-related informal learning for the workplace. The two main issues that the thesis attempted to determine is whether social background characteristics that affect initial educational attainment continue to influence participation in adult education and work-related informal learning. More specifically, this research focused on three main questions: First, to what extent does parents’ social background influence educational attainment levels for Canadians from different generations? Second, to what extent does parents’ social background influencing participation in adult education for their offspring beyond the effects of an individual’s own social background? And, third, to what extent does parents' social background have on their offspring’s participation in informal learning for the workplace beyond the effects of an individual's own social class background? A secondary data quantitative analysis was carried out on the data collected in the 2004 Work and Lifelong Learning (WALL) survey. Both crosstab analysis and structural equation analysis were used to obtain an overview of inequities in participation in formal education and informal learning and to test the applicability of Bourdieu’s social reproduction theory. Overall, the findings of this thesis indicate that social reproduction occurs not only through the formal education system, but also through the adult education system. More specifically, parents’ education continues to be a good predictor of the level of education attained by offspring. Moreover, one’s level of education continued to be a predictor of participation in adult education. Social reproduction was not present for work-related informal learning. In fact, those from low incomes were more likely to engage in informal learning than those from high incomes. These findings indicate that despite level of cultural and economic capital, the majority of Canadians engage in a learning activity. It is apparent that structures that are present in our formal education system continue to advantage students with high cultural and economic capital; however, work-related informal learning is accessible to all.

Find full textAbstract:
In this dissertation, I aim to examine how policy packages focusing on improving reproductive conditions impact adverse maternal outcomes at the local level. I use the National Institute of Reproductive Health’s Local Reproductive Freedom Index (NIRH LRFI) to advance scholarship and policy advocacy on how policies included in that index may lessen the overall maternal mortality rate while also perhaps diminishing the disparity in maternal mortality between women of color and white women in 50 major U.S. cities. I argue that policy may be an effective—though under-studied—avenue for reducing the risk of maternal mortality because policies can be used to target specific social factors that research has demonstrated place individuals at higher risk of a negative outcome. However, these policy avenues usefully can be considered as interconnected policy packages rather than merely as single-policy interventions. Additionally, current research in this area suggests that there is a clear need for more research that combines SDH with policies aimed at improving health outcomes for reproducing individuals, particularly for communities of color (Creanga et al. 2015b; Kozhimannil, Vogelsang, and Hardeman 2015; Osypuk et al. 2015). As such, I situate maternal mortality, and specifically racial disparities in maternal mortality, among social determinants of health. Overall, I argue that to successfully decrease aggregate maternal mortality rates and lessen racial disparities in reproductive health, it is essential to center the experiences and needs of women of color and use a critical lens when evaluating measures assessing reproductive freedom.

Full textAbstract:
Hazing is an ancient, universal practice. In past and modern societies, the need to join a group
is an aspect of our humanity. The process of joining a group frequently includes the need to be
hazed in order to legitimate full membership. This study uses the theoretical frameworks of
Michel Foucault, Pierre Bourdieu’s perspectives of social order, Henri Tajfel and John Turner’s
theory of social identity, and Albert Bandura’s theory of moral disengagement to look at
individuals joining groups. In particular, the study has sought to ascertain why those who haze
are motivated to act. A grounded theory has been developed through interviewing young adults,
who while in positions of leadership as Grade 12 learners in Gauteng schools, planned hazing
activities. The grounded theory shows that hazing while enacted by an individual is not solely
driven by that person, but rather hazing is a means of cultural reproduction. The mechanism
through which hazing occurs focuses on achieving a sense of belonging, conforming to a given
culture and consenting to hazing. The hazer is motivated to pass on aspects of the school’s
culture, namely school traditions, hierarchical structures, means and standards of discipline,
and showing appropriate respect to others. The hazer believes that this can be achieved as those
being hazed will comply if they can avoid being humiliated. The developed theory is grounded
and was verified through interviewing stakeholders in the school community who had
extensive knowledge of the school culture and of Grade 12 learners.Ukufikisa kungumkhuba wasemandulo, owenziwa emhlabeni wonke.

Full textAbstract:
The study collected occupational data from the 99 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I membership institutions head athletic directors. The purpose of this study was to identify common professional preparation and occupational characteristics among NCAA Division I athletic directors. Through issuing an electronic survey, the current study identified common characteristics and themes among Division I athletic directors specifically within the socio-demographical background, educational background, professional experience and career progression, and career and job satisfaction. The study also provided demographic information about the participant’s institutional athletic department. The necessity of this study is not due directly to the current lack of current literature and research within the collegiate administration, rather in reference to literature examining the athletic administration occupational field. The study provides an occupational framework in regards to the career progression, training, and characteristics of NCAA Division I athletic director career field. The study’s purpose was to examine the career growth of NCAA Division I athletic directors, as well as evaluate the demographic and socio-demographics characteristics of the NCAA Division I athletic director. The research and data collected from the study’s participants provided the author the opportunity to create a profile of the athletic administration career field and more specifically, the detailed qualities sought in a NCAA Division I athletic director. The results from the study are beneficial to aspiring persons that wish to work in the field of collegiate athletics administration by correlating common occupational framework for educational requirements, professional experience and years necessary to gather the appropriate experience and also to identify an overview of the job and career satisfaction common among current NCAA Division I athletic directors. In doing so, the study utilized homosocial reproduction as its theoretical framework. The study’s results concluded that the field of athletic administration, and specifically NCAA Division I athletic directors are disproportionally white males (89% white, 90% male), and further examined the educational and professional background characteristics and experiences which lead to this occupational characteristic.

Full textAbstract:
Dissertação de Mestrado em Evolução e Biologia Humanas apresentada à Faculdade de Ciências e TecnologiaThe decline of fertility, along with the population ageing that has been observed in economically developed populations in the last few decades, constitutes a demographic reality with alarming economical, political and structural consequences in the organisation of societies. Although the world population has been suffering from a dramatic growth in the course of the 20th century, the decline of fertility in the developed societies, with social models that depend on the existence of active population to guarantee economic growth and maintaining quality of life, represents an important global challenge. These fast demographic changes have been reported mainly on European societies, including Portugal, with a Fertility Synthetic Index of 2,1, below the population replacement threshold. The demographic transition is characterised by a steep decline of fertility and mortality, while simultaneously occurring an overall improvement of living conditions and wealth increase, and by the emerging negative connotation between resource availability and reproduction, therefore presenting an evolutionary puzzle. The current investigation had as the main purpose to combine a few approaches from Human Behavioural Ecology, Evolutionary Psychology and Cultural Evolution to analyse the reproductive decisions of individuals, starting from the approach of the Human Life-History Theory and the social networks approach, taking into account variables relative to the individual socioeconomic context in two stages of their lives (childhood and present-time), as well as the life-history trade-offs, obstacles to fertility, subjective evaluation of life satisfaction, cultural evolution processes and influence of social network composition. It was not possible to observe any associations between childhood socioeconomic context and fertility behaviours of individuals in the current sample. The results have shown that reproductive decisions and intentions are influenced by the present-time socioeconomic context, life-history trade-offs and by life choices and circumstances, and that the delaying of reproductive timing is influenced by the preference for investments in embodied capital and in hedonistic well-being. Furthermore, it was possible to observe that social influence plays an important role in reproductive behaviours, and that under certain circumstances it can help decrease the age at first child.
O declínio da fecundidade, em conjunto com o envelhecimento populacional que se tem observado nas populações economicamente desenvolvidas ao longo das últimas décadas, constitui uma realidade demográfica com preocupantes consequências económicas, políticas e estruturais na organização das sociedades. Apesar da população mundial ter sofrido um crescimento dramático no decorrer do século XX, o declínio da fecundidade nas sociedades desenvolvidas, com modelos sociais que dependem da existência de população activa para garantir o crescimento económico e manutenção da qualidade de vida constitui um importante desafio global. Estas rápidas alterações demográficas têm sido registadas principalmente nas sociedades Europeias, entre as quais se encontra Portugal, com um Índice Sintético de Fecundidade de 2,1, abaixo do limiar de substituição das populações. A transição demográfica caracteriza-se por um acentuado declínio na fecundidade e na mortalidade, ao mesmo tempo que ocorre uma melhoria generalizada das condições de vida e aumento da riqueza, e pela emergência de uma associação negativa entre a disponibilidade de recursos e a reprodução, apresentando-se como um quebra-cabeças evolutivo. A presente investigação teve como principal objectivo conjugar algumas abordagens da Ecologia Comportamental Humana, Psicologia Evolutiva e Evolução Cultural para analisar as decisões reprodutivas dos indivíduos, partindo da abordagem da Teoria de História de Vida Humana e à abordagem à rede de relacionamentos sociais, considerando-se variáveis relativas ao contexto socioeconómico dos indivíduos em duas fases da sua vida (infância e presente), bem como os compromissos de história de vida, obstáculos à fecundidade, avaliação subjectiva de satisfação com a vida, contexto individual de início de parentalidade e influência da composição da rede social. Não foi possível observar quaisquer associações entre o contexto socioeconómico na infância e os comportamentos reprodutivos dos indivíduos da presente amostra. Os resultados demonstraram que decisões e intenções de ter filhos reprodutivas são influenciadas pelo contexto socioeconómico actual, compromissos de história de vida e por circunstâncias e opções de vida, e que o adiamento da entrada na parentalidade é influenciado pela preferência pelo investimento no capital incorporado e no bem-estar hedonista. Adicionalmente, foi possível observar que a influência social desempenha um papel importante nos comportamentos reprodutivos, podendo sob determinadas circunstâncias diminuir a idade de entrada na parentalidade.

Adolescent and sexual reproductive health has been identified as among the most important
health and development priorities by the South African development (Department of Health,
1995; African National Congress, 1994). The South African government, like many governments
in the sub-Saharan region view with concern the region’s rapid population growth and high birth
rates particularly among adolescents. This study investigated the perceptions of young mothers
regarding teenage pregnancy. Eight participants who live in Vredendal, a predominantly

using convenient sampling. Transcripts of unstructured interviews were analysed using thematic
content analysis. The findings of the study suggest that young mothers initially perceive teenage
pregnancy negatively. These perceptions progressively changes to a positive one. Furthermore,
the results indicate a limited awareness of available preventative interventions. Results further
show participants tend to experience their relationships with significant others as positive.Psychology

M.A. (Research Consultation)Adolescent and sexual reproductive health has been identified as among the most important health and development priorities by the South African development (Department of Health, 1995; African National Congress, 1994). The South African government, like many governments in the sub-Saharan region view with concern the region’s rapid population growth and high birth rates particularly among adolescents. This study investigated the perceptions of young mothers regarding teenage pregnancy. Eight participants who live in Vredendal, a predominantly Coloured area in the Western Cape Province of South Africa, were selected for interviewing using convenient sampling. Transcripts of unstructured interviews were analysed using thematic content analysis. The findings of the study suggest that young mothers initially perceive teenage pregnancy negatively. These perceptions progressively changes to a positive one. Furthermore, the results indicate a limited awareness of available preventative interventions. Results further show participants tend to experience their relationships with significant others as positive.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis focuses on the projects and experiences of social justice organizers who place an emphasis on working to address heteropatriarchy and its impacts, work that I call men’s work. In particular, these are organizers who take an intersectional, social justice approach to this work. In order to recognize who organizers are and the kinds of projects they engage in, I describe four major project themes within men’s work and briefly explore their potentials and pitfalls according to those who are involved in them. I then analyze a number of the various considerations, tensions, and difficulties that arise for these organizers, particularly the personal and interpersonal components. In order to support organizers to be resilient and successful when faced with these issues, I conclude by sharing a variety of ways they may choose to navigate the various complexities they encounter in their organizing and in their communities.Graduate
