Gendered Agency and Emotions in the Field of Care Work

2011

This article examines the gendered effects of the intensification of public sector care work due to neoliberal reforms. It draws on an interview study of Finnish social and healthcare workers to argue that the expectations towards men and women in the reorganized field of care work are different, especially in the case of their emotional involvement in care practices. The article develops a conceptual framework based on Bourdieu’s theory of practice and its feminist developments. We discuss caring as gendered, habitual and emotional work and as a lived social relationship that produces different states of autonomy and dependency for women and men. Our study finds that women in particular fa…

European Mediterranean Women and the “Showdown” Between Public Emancipation and Private Self-oppression

2020

This chapter emphasizes the unfinished nature of a form of late-modernity still hanging in the balance between frameworks of representation and legitimization regarding women and the roles they play within the public sphere in virtue of the emancipation that has taken place and the contradictions which emerge when trying to reconcile old and new models of femininity. We shall, therefore, try to disengage some of the knots linking gender violence and “cultural representations” but, above all, the “adaptive preferences” and “corrosive disadvantages” found in European women’s private lives, which clash totally with their social achievements and are attributable to emotional oppression and, sim…

Bndocrinopathic Constitutions and Pathology of War*

1919

The clinical study of the internal secretions opens a vast field of research, so far little known, notwithstanding its great value in practical medicine. Particularly important are those states of hormonic imbalance which are at the border line between health and disease, and which represent either latent or mild endocrinopathic conditions, real endocrine diatheses or endocrinopathic temperaments. It is already understood that for each of the best known endocrine glands, in addition to frank malfunctions there must be recognized minor degrees of perturbation giving rise to the endocrinopathic habitus. To the French writers, especially Levi and Rotschild, we owe much of our knowledge of the …

Kurš šodien mazgās traukus? Mājsaimniecības darbu sadalīšana dzimumu līdztiesīgās attiecībās

2021

Balstoties Pjēra Burdjē idejās par maskulīno dominanci un praksi, pētījumā tiek apskatīts, kā uzskati par dzimumu līdztiesību atšķiras no prakses heteroseksuālos pāros, un, kā dzimumu līdztiesība pastiprina maskulīno dominanci. Astoņās daļēji strukturētās intervijās un divās video-dienasgrāmatās es pētu izpratni par dzimumu līdztiesību, tās definīciju un mājsaimniecības darbu sadalījumu, meklējot nesakritības izpratnē un praksē. Maskulīnā dominance nostiprinās formālās dzimumu līdztiesības dēļ, jo tā ir mazāk saistīta ar dzimumu līdztiesību praksē. Visbiežākais trūkstošais posms starp izpratni un praksi ir habitus un neapzināta dzimumu lomu atveidošana.

Excess of de novo variants in genes involved in chromatin remodelling in patients with marfanoid habitus and intellectual disability.

2020

PurposeMarfanoid habitus (MH) combined with intellectual disability (ID) (MHID) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous presentation. The combination of array CGH and targeted sequencing of genes responsible for Marfan or Lujan–Fryns syndrome explain no more than 20% of subjects.MethodsTo further decipher the genetic basis of MHID, we performed exome sequencing on a combination of trio-based (33 subjects) or single probands (31 subjects), of which 61 were sporadic.ResultsWe identified eight genes with de novo variants (DNVs) in at least two unrelated individuals (ARID1B, ATP1A1, DLG4, EHMT1, NFIX, NSD1, NUP205 and ZEB2). Using simulation models, we showed that five genes (DLG4, NFIX, …

Genere e servizio sociale. Habitus professionali, dinamiche di relazione, rappresentazioni

2015

Il volume affronta la questione del genere nel servizio sociale, caratterizzandola in un contesto locale-nazionale e, nel contempo, aprendo lo sguardo alla dimensione internazionale. L’analisi della letteratura europea, delle statistiche e della tipizzazione mediale, in una dinamica di rimandi incrociati, si confronta con “caso siciliano”, campo d’analisi della ricerca condotta. Viene quindi evidenziato come la preponderanza numerica delle professioniste donne, in un mestiere considerato tradizionalmente femminile, pone in campo la convergenza di pregiudizi mediterranei e dominio maschile, ma anche di diktat riduzionistici della validità delle performance professionali improntati all'empati…

Emotions and epistemology: a path for reconsideration in the 21st century

2017

The present paper explores the gap between sensations and emotions in the global capitalism. We held the thesis that there are diverse ways to systematise the theoretical orientations on which the studies on the body/emotion are based; a possible one, having in mind the Latin American context and without intent of exhaustiveness, is the following: a) a line of work connected to Foucault and his concepts of control, discipline, and technologies of the self; b) an approach connected to Bourdieu and his notions of habitus, body hexis, and social fields; c) a set of investigations in the field of biopolitics referring to Esposito and Agamben on the one hand, and to Negri and Hardt on the other;…

A glimpse into the socialization of bilingual youngsters as interpreters: the case of Latino bilinguals brokering communication for their families an…

2010

Work on bilinguals who act as family interpreters, while not focused particularly on the development of translation and interpreting abilities, contributes to our understanding of life experiences of the individuals who begin to interpret early in their lives (Valdés and Angelelli 2003). With some exceptions (Harris 1977, 1978, 1980, 1992; Toury 1984, 1995) very little has been written about the lived experiences of young interpreters and/or about their socialization as family interpreters. Since most of the community interpreters of today were interpreters in their late childhood and adolescence, getting a glimpse into their lives and experiences may help researchers (and teachers of inter…
