In other words, it assesses whether family responsibility in a given area (and its gender dimension) is only assumed without public policy support or, on the contrary, whether it is actively enforced by laws or supported by income transfers and time allocation. The same diversification also exists for the opposite concept, defamilialization, which may happen through positive, direct or indirect policy interventions or because of the lack of such interventions, encouraging recourse to the market. The article shows that when considering these distinctions in the analyses, the profiles of countries that are usually generically described as ‘familialistic welfare states’, such as Italy and Spain in Europe or Japan and Korea in East Asia, and their similarities and differences partly differ from those that emerge when considering only a simplified familialism – defamilialization dichotomy, in so far both familialism and defamilialization may occur, and be combined, through distinct means, offering, therefore, also different options.

As we enter the “not if but when” stage of creating public policy, we need to make sure the program values all care and values every family. Parents urgently need paid time to welcome a new child into their homes. But more than three-quarters of those who take unpaid leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act do so to care for a loved one or for their own serious illness. Our paid leave program cannot leave them out. The stories in this booklet come from people across the country. Each of them faced an unexpected injury or illness, like most of us do at some point. And like us, they just want to take care of themselves and their loved ones without falling off an economic cliff. It would be very difficult to cure or prevent all the ailments described in this booklet. But it should not be difficult to reach bipartisan agreement on a paid leave plan that is accessible for all kinds of care and affordable to every family. familyvaluesatwork.org • The Impact of Our Wins Caring For Yourself familyvaluesatwork.org • Value All Care, Value Every Family Caring For Yourself Janet Valencia, Tucson, Arizona everal years ago when I was a single mom I worked as a registered nurse in Tucson, often through an agency with no paid leave.

A prestige marketing organization, specializing in long-term planning for the consumer industries, Henley has developed a strong - track-record for in-depth social research. One of its survey findings makes particularly depressing, if familiar, reading. Throughout 1986 a sample profile was monitored for their main leisure patterns. What came out top were a list of late twentieth century pleasures which are principally made- available through market based structures: personal shopping, eating take-away meals, DIY, video watching. Right at the bottom of the list came politics. Going to a political meeting ranked on a par with a visit to the circus as one of our last likely things to do! Politics as something pleasurable, as something to do with one's disposable leisure time, it seems, is a decided non-starter. 1 This paper is focused via two inter-related themes touched on by the Henley Centre's survey: the articulation between a series of post-war political discourses and the leisure cultures of contemporary consumer capitalism. The arguments centre primarily on British politics and culture, though many of the debates reviewed present their analysis more globally, speaking of general characteristics of the 'advancedt industrial economies, the 'mature' democracies, and so on.

These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

    LIS Working Paper Series No. 766 Income, Familialism and Women’s Economic Independence Kaitlin Alper June 2019 Luxembourg Income Study (LIS), asbl Income, Familialism and Women’s Economic Independence Income, Familialism and Women’s Economic Independence Kaitlin Alper Abstract This paper explores the dynamics of women’s economic independence at the individual household level and its relationship to country-level income distributions. I posit a nega- tive relationship between income and women’s economic independence. Using detailed household-level data from the Luxembourg Income Study (LIS) across thirteen advanced capitalist democracies, I show that women at upper ends of the income distribution con- sistently have less within-household economic independence than do their counterparts at the bottom of the distribution. I then show that this negative relationship is sensitive to political characteristics at the country level. In countries whose policies support a male breadwinner model, women’s economic independence is lower across the board than in other types of countries; in gender egalitarian countries, it is higher. Family policies do not, however, have a significant impact on the income stratification of women’s eco- nomic independence. These results suggest that social policy characteristics and labor market dynamics have important implications for gender equity both within and between households. 1 1 Introduction Over the past three decades, income inequality has been increasing throughout the advanced capitalist world (Piketty, 2014). For women, gendered income inequality in partic- ular has significant sociological implications, including unequal division of household labor and increased likelihood of abuse within relationships (Kalmuss and Straus, 1982; Brines, 1994; Macmillan and Gartner, 1999; Morris, 1990).

This working paper examines how sociological constructions of family and intimate relations have shifted over the years, exploring how particular bodies of literature have documented and shaped understandings of social connectedness. It will be argued that there are three major sociological perspectives on contemporary personal relations, with theorists emphasising breakdown, democratisation or continuity. Having reviewed the available research and outlined each perspective, this paper moves on to contextualise the three different interpretations, relating them to current debates around the concept of social capital. As Lynn Jamieson (1998) notes, the word ‘intimacy’ has come to replace what would previously have been termed ‘primary relationships’, signifying a new focus on the quality as opposed to the structure of such relationships. Within the field of sociology the term intimacy has taken on a particular significance, describing a theoretical stance that has emerged and colonised topics of interest that were previously viewed from the perspectives of family or community studies.

  • PDF the Construction of the Family Ethic in Turkey
    SCIENTIA MORALITAS CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4385020 The Construction of the Family Ethic in Turkey Esra Özdil Gümüş PhD Candidate, Boğaziçi University, Turkey, [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Republic of Turkey in 1923, is established on the foundations of secularism and modernity. The newly established state, which turned its face to the West by rejecting the legacy of the Ottoman Empire, carried out a modern nation building project with the imagination of a new nation, family and citizenship. Through family planning policies, the modern nuclear family was supported as a disengagement from the Ottoman traditional society. Due to secularist policies, beliefs, morals, values, ethics were accepted as individualistic matters and pushed to private sphere. This family-oriented modernization and ideal of national family required the construction of a new citizen woman who incurred the responsibility of raising new patriot generations devoted to principles of the reformist state. However, this perception of family and woman began to change in the last few decades especially with the neoconservative and neoliberal policies adopted by the rule of the Justice and Development Party (JDP). In accordance with the earlier governments, the family preserved its privileged position, however, with a new assignment on family which instrumentalizes ethics, morals and beliefs in the public sphere compatible with its policies. The birth control policies have come to an end and the care giving services assigned to families instead of public service, which eventually requires a renovation of duties and responsibilities of the family and women. This paper intends to analyze the mobilization of beliefs, morals and ethics for the sake of construction of the social order.

  • Frame Resonance, Political Ideology, and the Immigrant Rights Movement
    Rights, Economics, or Family? 1647 Rights, Economics, or Family? Rights, Economics, or Family? Frame Resonance, Political Ideology, and the Immigrant Rights Movement Irene Bloemraad, Fabiana Silva, and Kim Voss , University of California, Berkeley Downloaded from lthough social movement scholars in the United States have long ignored activ- ism over immigration, this movement raises important theoretical and empirical Aquestions, especially given many immigrants’ lack of citizenship. Is the rights “master” frame, used extensively by other US social movements, persuasive in making http://sf.oxfordjournals.org/ claims for noncitizens? If not, which other movement frames resonate with the public? We leverage survey experiments—largely the domain of political scientists and public opinion researchers—to examine how much human/citizenship rights, economics, and family framing contests shape Californians’ views about legalization and immigrants’ access to public benefits. We pay particular attention to how potentially distinct “pub- lics,” or subgroups, react, finding significant differences in frame resonance between groups distinguished by political ideology. However, alternative framings resonate with—at best—one political subgroup and, dauntingly, frames that resonate with one at Univ of California Library on May 20, 2016 group sometimes alienate others. While activists and political theorists may hope that human rights appeals can expand American notions of membership, such a frame does not help the movement build support for legalization. Instead, the most expansive change in legalization attitudes occurs when framed as about family unity, but this holds only among self-reported conservatives. These findings underscore the challenges confronting the immigrant movement and the need to reevaluate the assumption that historically progressive rights language is effective for immigrant claims-making.
