Two Peas in a Pod: Book Sales Clubs and Book Ownership in the Twentieth Century

2017

In the early twentieth century, book sales clubs became popular as an alternative means of book distribution. Corinna Norrick-Ruhl offers a unique comparative approach, synthesizing research about book sales clubs in twentieth-century Germany and the USA. Whereas previous studies have focussed mainly on the recommended literature and the effect on middlebrow reading, Norrick-Ruhl shows how book sales clubs rendered the book as a cultural object available and affordable, filling working-class and middle-class shelves with attractive volumes of “furniture books”. While book sales clubs were enormously successful in the twentieth century, they have recently declined. The author finally underli…

Amplitude and peculiar aspects of social inequalities in the French school

2005

05021http://www.scielo.br/pdf/ep/v31n1/a02v31n1.pdf; International audience; French sociology denounces vehemently since the end of the 1960s the important and standing social inequalities both in the access to the different levels of education and in school success stricto sensu. Such criticism has taken the form of a general theory put forward by Bourdieu and Passeron, in which such social inequalities are shown to be the necessary result of the functioning of the school institution. And this thesis, hugely influential not just among sociologists, but also more widely, has contributed to foster certain fatalism, since it establishes that the very function of school is to reproduce and leg…

A stochastic dynamical social model involving a human happiness index

2018

[EN] This paper presents a new human happiness index built through five dimensions: development, freedom, solidarity, justice and peace. These five dimensions are evaluated through quantitative variables obtained from the Human Development Reports, World Data Bank and Eurostat. The new happiness index has been built following the guidelines set by the Human Development Reports of the UN for the construction of quality indices, and it has been compared on a set of 13 EU countries with the Overall Life Satisfaction Index, which is used by the UN. Moreover, the new index has been included in a dynamic mathematical model through the demographic rates to study the evolution of the population. Th…

Wie konzipieren wir Kinderkriegen?

2016

Zusammenfassung: Wie geht Kinderkriegen? Im Alltag lautet die Antwort Sex – Schwangerschaften resultieren aus Geschlechtsverkehr und Befruchtung. Sozialwissenschaftliche Studien führen sie dagegen auf ein (rationales) Entscheidungshandeln von Paaren zurück. Diesem unterliegen ‚Fertilitätsintentionen‘, denen ein entsprechendes ‚Fertilitätsverhalten‘ korrespondiert. Theoriegrundlage bilden Rational-Choice- und kognitionspsychologische Ansätze. Der Aufsatz wird diese Modellbildung hinterfragen, da sie das Kinderkriegen in seiner lebensweltlichen Komplexität nicht nur empirisch ausklammert, sondern auch normativ idealisiert und dabei dessen sozialen Eigensinn verfehlt. Anhand narrativer Intervi…

Undoing Differences Revisited.

2020

ZusammenfassungDer Beitrag nimmt einen Blick zurück nach vorn auf das Konzept des Undoing Differences. Er soll im Sinne eines theoretischen Zwischenfazits den Nutzen und die Grenzen des Konzepts bestimmen und es in eine neue Reihe von Konzepten eintragen, mit denen sich die Negation und die Indifferenz von Humandifferenzierungen soziologisch erschließen lassen. Der Aufsatz begegnet der (inter)aktionistischen Reichweitenlimitierung des Konzeptes mit seiner Einordnung in drei Zeitebenen negatorischer Prozesse: (1) situative (In)aktivitäten verschiedener Aktivitätsniveaus, (2) Subordination und normative Inhibierung in der Konkurrenz von Unterscheidungen sowie (3) historische Prozesse ihrer De…

A Lexicon-based Approach for Sentiment Classification of Amazon Books Reviews in Italian Language

2016

We present a system aimed at the automatic classification of the sentiment orientation expressed into book reviews written in Italian language. The system we have developed is found on a lexicon-based approach and uses NLP techniques in order to take into account the linguistic relation between terms in the analyzed texts. The classification of a review is based on the average sentiment strenght of its sentences, while the classification of each sentence is obtained through a parsing process inspecting, for each term, a window of previous items to detect particular combinations of elements giving inversions or variations of polarity. The score of a single word depends on all the associated …

Mafia Methods, Extortion Dynamics and Social Responses

2016

This chapter is devoted to exploring both the empirical results and the policy proposals produced by the GLODERS project. Based on 631 cases of extortions, the Sicily and Calabria extortion database represents a relevant achievement in the field of the research on extortion racket and it is one of the main results of the GLODERS project. Gathering a great amount of information, our empirical analysis revealed the existence of several differences in the extortive conducts carried on within these two regions, which are presented. Moreover, the chapter introduces the legislation related to the crime of extortion. Social and legal responses to the phenomenon are then discussed.

Les activités de rééducation GAPP à l'école primaire : analyse du fonctionnement et évaluation des effets

1991

Alain Mingat : Die Umschulungsaktivitäten der GAPP (Gruppen zur psychopädagogischer Hilfe) in der Grundschule. Die GAPP wurden vor za. 20 Jahren geschaffen mit dem Zweck, die Schüler zu unterstützen, die vorübergehende Schwierigkeiten zur guten Eingliederung in die Schule aufweisen. Diese Einrichtung wurde bisher lediglich diskursiv analysiert. Der vorliegende Artikel zeigt, dass starke Unterschiede im Funktionieren der Dienstleistungen bestehen (Mittelzuweisung durch die Verwaltung, Umschulungspraxis, allgemein und zwischen den einzelnen GAPP-Einrichtungen) mit der Konsequenz, dass die Zulassungsentscheidungen sehr ungenau sind : das erleichtet nebenbei die Bewertung der Auswirkungen. Dies…
