A travers le cas de la paroisse de Corsier-sur-Vevey en Suisse, ce livre analyse la transition entre Ancien Régime et Suisse moderne telle qu'elle se reflète dans les choix de partenaires sociaux, en mettant l'accent sur les mariages, les parrainages et les transactions économiques. Fondée sur une large base de données généalogique, l'analyse démontre, par des statistiques et des visualisations de réseaux, que les décisions changent, à la fois dans la parenté et la proximité spatiale.Un double mouvement s'observe, avec, en matière de proximité de parenté et de proximité spatiale, à la fois des distances plus courtes et des distances plus éloignées entre le 18e et le 19e siècle.

Nuancing Young Masculinities tells a complex story about the plurality of young masculinities. It draws on the narratives of Finnish young people (mostly boys) of different social classes and ethnicities who attend schools in Helsinki, Finland. Their accounts of relations with peers, parents, and teachers give insights into boys' experiences and everyday practices at school, home, and in leisure time. The theoretical insights in this volume are wide-ranging, illuminating the plurality of masculinities, their dynamism, and intersections with other social identities. The young people's enthusiastic and reflexive engagement with the research dispels stereotypes of boys and masculinities and offers a unique and holistic re-imagining of masculinities. Nuancing Young Masculinities provides a nuanced and compelling understanding of young masculinities.

In today's global and digitalized world, the investigation of relational trust as part of social connections has remained a popular and interdisciplinary academic topic. This book explores the idea of trust as a basic type of information processing that might be as old as human existence but has gained new attention with the emergence of online communication channels. The result is a strategic reconsideration of the brain's role in the formation of social relationships and a new look at how information might shape our confidence in others.

"Unintended consequences" is an umbrella concept. It comprises phenomena that differ in crucial respects and consequently, without refinement, it remains a rather blunt instrument for policy analysis. The contributions in this volume, however, show that disentangling unintended consequences by making clear distinctions between various types, makes the concept much more useful for policy analysis. Assessing the impact of EU foreign policies as studied in this volume, we show that "bonuses", "windfalls", "accidents", and "trade-offs" - all unintended - are very different when it comes to the explanation of policy outcomes, or to allocating responsibility for them.".

This book explores generation as both a reference to family or kinship structures, and a reference to cohorts or age sets. The principal objective is branching out this two-part concept through studies of tensions and solidarity within and between generations of advanced and robust welfare states. Answering key questions using multiple disciplinary approaches, the book considers how generations challenge advanced and robust welfare states; how new and young generations are affected by living in an advanced welfare state with older generations; how tensions or solidarity are understood when facing challenges; and what the key characteristics are of certain generation types. It contributes to the development of a more comprehensive generation approach within social sciences by developing the concept of generation by exploring different challenges to the welfare state such as migration, digitalization, environmental damages, demands for sustainability, and marginalization. Highlighting the esca:at:ng tensions and altered veneris 0' solidarity between generations, t-:s book shows how a comprehensive concept of a generation can create new insights into how we collectively coordinate and resolve challenges through the welfare state. it will be of interest to all scholars and students of social policy, sociology, political science, and social anthropology.

"This book delves into the notion of intimacy as a defining feature of podcasting, examining the concept of intimacy itself and how the public sphere explores the relationships created and maintained through podcasts. The book situates textual analysis of specific American podcasts within podcast criticism, monetization, and production advice. Through analysis of these sources' self-descriptions, the text builds a podcasting-specific framework for intimacy and uses that framework to interpret how podcasting imagines the connections it forms within communities. Instead of intimacy being inherent, the book argues that podcasting constructs intimacy and uses it to define the quality of its own mediation. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of New and Digital Media, Media Studies, Communication Studies, Journalism, Literature, Cultural Studies, and American Studies"--

Fernbeziehungen reproduzieren nicht nur normalisierte Vorstellungen von Intimität, sondern stellen sie zugleich infrage. Madeleine Scherrer erforscht, wie Frauen in Fernbeziehungen von vergeschlechtlichten Erfahrungen und Erwartungen berichten. Anhand theoretischer Ansätze zu Raum und Medialität zeigt sie auf, wie Fernbeziehungen als produzierte und sich überlagernde mediale Zwischenräume fungieren. Mit Rückgriff auf Karen Barads Methode der Diffraktion dekonstruiert sie normalisierte Intimitätsvorstellungen und hegemoniale dualistische Denkweisen.
