In controtendenza con gli attuali orientamenti della storiografia italiana sull’Età moderna, questo libro ripropone una ricerca di prima mano su aspetti e problemi di argomento economico e sociale. Esso si segnala inoltre per l’area di rifermento esaminata: la Calabria meridionale e, in particolare, la zona del Reggino, inserendosi in una tradizione di studi che ha al suo attivo i pregevoli contributi di Giuseppe Galasso sul Cinquecento e di Augusto Placanica, specificamente, per il Settecento. In questa ottica il volume ridà spazio ai protagonisti anonimi di quel contesto e approfondisce una serie di aspetti sulle condizioni dell’economia e della società calabresi. Il tutto, mediante una documentazione inedita che consente di far luce e di verificare le tendenze di breve, medio e lungo periodo di quella realtà incrociando e comparando le fonti disponibili sul piano locale con quelle prodotte dalle coeve istituzioni centrali dello Stato.
Lo schema al quale egli si affida è quello di un’analisi di carattere demografico e socio-economico finalizzato ad esaminare l’andamento strutturale di una periferia sullo sfondo di quanto accade nell’Età moderna. In questa comparazione vengono evidenziate assonanze e discordanze dai modelli acquisiti dalla storiografia, sottolineando le peculiarità di alcuni fenomeni non sempre omologabili alle cronologie e agli sviluppi di quei secoli. Ne scaturisce una ricostruzione che mette in risalto talune specificità della zona esaminata, inquadrandone le congiunture nel panorama più ampio che fa da sfondo ai problemi di volta in volta esaminati.
Basata su una molteplicità di fonti, prevalentemente seriali, la ricostruzione dell’Autore non trascura il supporto di testimonianze narrative che concorrono ad integrare e a supportare le risultanze dei dati quantitativi. Per menzionare i materiali archivistici più frequentemente consultati, la ricerca si snoda attraverso la consultazione e l’analisi delle numerazioni dei fuochi, degli stati delle anime, dei relevi feudali, degli apprezzi e dei documenti fiscali delle diverse comunità esaminate fino ai dati ricavati dal fondo relativo alle “voci di vettovaglie” e da altre carte d’archivio, come le relationes ad limina, o da testimonianze desunte dalle cronache e dalla storiografia locale o da ulteriori documenti rintracciati negli archivi dei singoli centri esaminati.
Sulla scorta di questa ricca documentazione vengono ricostruiti aspetti estremamente interessanti della Calabria reggina e vengono evidenziate tendenze non sempre collimanti con quelle generali. A determinare lo scostamento dall’andamento tradizionalmente accreditato concorrono diversi fattori e, tra questi, svolgono un ruolo non trascurabile l’incidenza delle caratteristiche geomorfologiche del territorio e il comportamento dei protagonisti che devono condividerne gli inevitabili condizionamenti. In tutto questo emerge un rapporto simbiotico tra gli uomini e l’ambiente che permette di valutare il ruolo svolto dalla storia nel breve come nel lungo periodo.  (Tratto dall'introduzione del Prof. Giuseppe Poli)

The present study is the first part of a series of analysis from archives of the historical period between 1786 to 1940 exposing parish registers partially transcribed, shedding light on natives individuals from 1786 to 1800.

For the present presentation, parish archives from 1786 to 1800 were analyzed in order to get a good look at the population then, and the relationships occurring between them and the Sulpicians. The microfilms of parish registers available only started in 1786, since the previous registers from 1721 to 1786 have been destroyed in a fire in 1922. The main complexity remaining in the destructions of the originals is that after this date, a double was conserved, and extracted by Bishop Guillaume Forbes, but unfortunately, only a few registers concerning natives were present.

Through, the parish registers between 1786 to 1940 available on microfilms at Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and at the National Archives of Quebec (BAnQ), Eric Pouliot-Thisdale, the author of this new and updated study, gathered important informations which were never described up to now, with enlightening historical and sociological observation.

Abstract: Each year, increasing numbers of international students enroll in Chinese universities, yet no literature is available on their intercultural communication competences (ICC) and acculturation status. The study aimed at investigating these two key concepts at Central China Normal University. Two dimensions of intercultural communication competence (affect and behavior) and two dimensions of acculturation (attitude towards maintenance of one’s culture and attitude towards contact with other cultures) were employed to measure and analyze the two research constructs. A representative sample of 302 international students shows that Asian international students are less motivated to adapt than other students from other continents. In addition, time and education level do not seem to be sufficient factors in facilitating adaptation. Furthermore, the most preferred acculturation strategy is found to be integration. Finally, attitude towards contact positively correlates with affec...

This paper is an overview of the shifts in the internal migration patterns in Romania for the last six decades. In the first part a literature-based brief overview of the trends and patterns of internal migration during communism will be presented. In the second (more extensive) part, a statistical-data based analysis of the internal migration trends and patterns over the last 25 years will be provided. The breakdown of the Romanian communist regime (in December 1989) was the beginning for a major change in the general demographic and socioeconomic context of the internal migration and regime of the Romanian internal migration control. In terms of the demographic context, the period of the communist regime was characterised by relatively high (though territorially significantly differentiated) fertility rates and overall population increase. In socioeconomic terms, industrialisation and the subsequent urbanisation give rise to a significant and dynamic context of migratory opportunities and subsequent flows of internal mobility. Nevertheless the migratory processes emerged in this particular demographic and socioeconomic context were to large extent controlled by the state, and, since external migration was very limited, occurring within the national territory. The means of internal migration control during communism During the communist period, the state closely controlled the labour market, and via economic investment policies and by various administrative procedures, not just stimulated but to some extent pointed the tracks for the internal mobility paths. Especially in the initial phase of the communist industrialisation process, major industrial settings were established in regions with existing infrastructure. Since these customarily were not located in regions with high fertility rates, substantial migratory movement from less developed to more prosperous regions were induced (Turnock 1970).

Same-sex families are a recent legal reality in Europe. Socially and politically, they have been recognized only since 1989. Legal recognition spread over Europe in a two-phase process. At first, a specific and separated status (registered partnerships, civil union, Eingetragene Partnerschaft) has been granted to same-sex families, adding substantially to their social visibility. Subsequently, same-sex families have gained access to the general status of marriage. This second phase closes the phase of specific visibility and brings same-sex families back into the discretion of private life. A European overview of this double process may help our understanding of how homosexuality is socially and politically managed in different regions of Europe. Same-sex families are also a recent socio-demographic reality. Same-sex couples and families emerged in the twentieth and twenty first century. This paper will present socio-demographic facts on European same-sex families. It will also hazard some hypotheses on how these families seem to develop and how they are managed in Europe.

A survey of more than 4,700 executives conducted by The Boston Consulting Group and World Federation of Personnel Management Associations showed that executives consider talent management as the most important human resource challenge. Ways on how companies can address these issues are also presented.

населения и динамики миграции в регионах. В статье автор анализирует миграционные потоки на территории
Дальневосточного федерального округа и заключает, что демографические проблемы требуют системного
решения, которое должно учитывать не только социальные и экономические нюансы, но и вопросы
этнокультурного характера.

Rapid depopulation, which affected vast regions of Central and Eastern Europe, has long-term consequences not only for their socioeconomic, but also political development. For the unrecognized polities, the ability to retain the population has become an important criterion for successfully competing with the parent states for the loyalty of citizens, the legitimacy of political regimes and claims to sovereignty. The objective of the paper is to consider the impact of depopulation on the socioeconomic situation and political life of the unrecognized Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (Transnistria, PMR) in comparison with the Republic of Moldova (RM). On the basis of official statistics, the authors compare the rates, factors and reasons for the population decrease in the PMR and RM. Shown are the consequences of depopulation typical for the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and specific for Transnistria and Moldova. The assessment of migration losses in general for these territories and for their regions demonstrates that the population outflow in Transnistria began earlier and was more intensive than from the RM. In Moldova, depopulation intensifies the identity crisis and contradictions between the “Moldovenists” and supporters of unification with Romania, in the PMR— instability of political life, uncertainty of the region’s prospects and the growth of a critical attitude towards the authorities.
Быстрая депопуляция, охватившая обширные регионы стран Центральной и Восточной Европы, вызывает долгосрочные последствия не только для их социально-экономического, но и политического развития. Для непризнанных политий способность удержать население стала важным критерием успешной конкуренции с материнским государством за лояльность граждан, легитимности политических режимов и претензий на суверенитет. Цель работы – выявить влияние депопуляции на социально-экономическую ситуацию и политическую жизнь непризнанной Приднестровской Молдавской Республики (ПМР) в сравнении с Республикой Молдова (РМ). На основе официальных статистических данных авторы сравнивают темпы, факторы и причины сокращения населения в ПМР и РМ. Показаны типичные для стран Центральной и Восточной Европы и специфические для Приднестровья и Молдовы последствия депопуляции. Оценка миграционных потерь в целом по этим территориям и по их отдельным регионам показывает, что в Приднестровье отток населения начался раньше и был более интенсивным, чем из РМ. В Молдове депопуляция усиливает кризис идентичности и противоречия между “молдовенистами” и сторонниками объединения с Румынией, в ПМР – нестабильность политической жизни, неопределенность перспектив региона и рост критического настроя к власти.

"Review Buku Teori Transisi Demografi" Transisi demografi, sesuai dengan namanya yaitu "TRANSISI" yang berarti "perubahan", dan DEMOGRAFI artinya ilmu yang mempelajari tentang masalah kependudukan. Jadi transisi demografi adalah teori yang menjelaskan tentang perubahan yang terjadi pada struktur penduduk. Perubahan yang terjadi dari struktur penduduk dengan tingkat pertumbuhan yang tinggi menjadi struktur penduduk yang tingkat pertumbuhannya rendah. Teori Transisi demografi adalah model yang menggambarkan perubahan penduduk dari tingkat pertumbuhan yang stabil tinggi (tingkat fertilitas dan mortalitas yang tinggi) ke tingkat pertumbuhan yang stabil rendah (tingkat fertilitas dan mortalitas rendah) yang terjadi dari waktu ke waktu. Transisi demografi awalnya hanya menggambarkan pergeseran sosial yang terjadi di masyarakat Barat dari abad 19 ke tahun 1930-an, pada masa itu masyarakat Eropa yang bertempat tinggal di luar negeri bergerak dari tingkat fertilitas dan mortalitas tinggi, ke tingkat fertilitas dan mortalitas rendah dengan konsekuensi sosial yang besar. Berdasarkan pada interpretasi para ahli demografi (demografer), perubahan yang diamati adalah tingkat fertilitas dan mortalitas dalam masyarakat selama dua ratus tahun terakhir atau lebih. Tren populasi penduduk yang terjadi,seperti pasca-Perang Dunia II (1939-1945) disebut dengan istilah "baby boom," telah menurunkan tingkat fertilitas dengan drastis yang terjadi di Eropa, tetapi sekarang transisi demografi merupakan fenomena global, bukan hanya tren Barat ataupun Eropa, bahkan sejak tahun 1960 sebagian besar dunia telah menunjukkan penurunan tingkat fertilitas, dengan pengecualian sub-Sahara Afrika yang mungkin terakhir menunjukkan penurunan tingkat fertilitas Di Indonesia sendiri penurunan angka kelahiran dilakukan dengan cara menjalankan program KB atau keluarga berencana dan juga pemakaian alat kontrasepsi sehingga angka kelahiran bisa ditekan. Indonesia adalah Negara dengan jumlah penduduk terbesar ke empat di dunia, seperti yang kita tahu bahwa masyarakat jawa pada beberapa generasi lampau memiliki jumlah anak 10 atau lebih itu menjadi lumrah. Hal Itu menunjukkan masyarakat Indonesia pada masa itu masih belum mempunyai gaya hidup sebagai masyarakat modern. Jadi menurut saya Indonesia masih menjalani proses menuju kondisi yang stabil sesuai pada tahapan di teori transisi demografi. Semakin berkembangnya zaman kebiasaan memiliki anak banyak juga sudah mulai ditinggalkan, proses industrialisasi sudah semakin membaik, dan angka kelahiran sudah cukup berhasil ditekan. Maka dari itu di masa yang akan datang Indonesia dapat mencapai keadaan yang stabil dan menyelesaikan transisi demografi.

Ajay Gandhi in his study titled "Porous Boundaries: Hindu-Muslim Demarcation and Crossings in Delhi My personal experiences" provides interesting accounts of the constituents of Hindu Muslim relationship in Delhi. He argues that though the community boundaries are strong between two communities, the everyday movements and interactions make these boundaries porous. Here i share my experiences in Old Delhi that shed lights on how the Kabab shops around Jama musjid provides a perfect venue for inter community relations

THE PURPOSE OF this paper is to first, confront the notion of “rural decline” at the village level and second, to illustrate how a more immersive approach to demographic research can further our understanding of rural and remote communities. “Rural decline” is typically represented by a series of quantitative trends at the regional level that are assumed as evidence—population loss and aging, closure of services and businesses— whose (negative) meaning and importance is implicit. Significant regions in countries like Australia, Canada, and Sweden have been identified as “in decline” on this basis. In contrast, qualitative research undertaken at the settlement (town or village) level tends to look for social structures that enable towns and villages to revitalize and reverse these negative trends (Li et al. 2016). Settlement-level research, when compared to that focused on “decline,” challenges negative assumptions and can uncover processes and strategies that counter the deterioration of rural and remote villages. This paper proposes that a deeper understanding of local processes that recognizes qualitative experience is required to understand what it means to be a rural village in a declining region, and that new methods of linked quantitative and qualitative analyses are needed to facilitate this under- standing.
The very term “decline” carries both quantitative and qualitative meanings. Quantitatively, there is a process of indicators becoming represented by absolute or comparative decrease in selected indicators. Decline represents a reduced capacity to do something or to be something. Carson and Schmallegger (2011), for example, examined small rural towns which had declined in their ability to attract tourists. In Canada, Ensign (2010) has discussed declining ability to attract and retain entrepreneurs, and others have conducted analyses of difficulties in retaining skilled and

professional workers (Fiore et al. 2015). The decline of places might be reflected quite directly in a quantitative sense (population, physicians per capita, number of tourists). There is less attention paid to what these places might decline to. Quantitatively, linear forecasting suggests continued decline of a resident population may ultimately lead to the disappearance of settlement. Mostly, however, even very small villages persist over long periods of time (Ahlin 2015; Robards and Alessa 2004), suggesting decline is likely nonlinear or at least has some end point which is different to disappearance (Banks 2001).

De Yuppies van de jaren negentig zijn Yupps (young urban professional parents) geworden, en velen van hen wonen met hun kinderen nog steeds in de stad. In dit hoofdstuk nemen we Amsterdam als voorbeeld, maar het verschijnsel is niet typisch Nederlands: binnen en buiten Nederland zijn steeds
meer gezinnen met jonge kinderen in de grote stad te vinden. Binnen de Amsterdamse ringweg A10 bevindt zich inmiddels een concentratie gefeminiseerde gezinshuishoudens: de stad als emancipatiemotor. Wat zijn daarvan de achtergronden? En is dit een tijdelijk verschijnsel, bijvoorbeeld als gevolg van de crisis, of een meer structurele ontwikkeling?

The rapid depopulation that covered vast regions of Central and Eastern Europe has had long-lasting consequences not only for their socioeconomic, but also political development. For unrecognized polities, the ability to retain population became an important criterion for successful competition with the mother state for citizens' loyalty, the legitimacy of political regimes, and claims to sovereignty. The aim of the study is to identify the impact of depopulation on the socioeconomic situation and political life of the unrecognized Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR, or Transnistria) in comparison with the Republic of Moldova (RM). On the basis of official statistics, the authors compare the rates, factors, and reasons for population decline in the PMR and RM. The consequences of depopulation typical of Central and Eastern European countries and specific to Transnistria and Moldova are shown. Assessment of migration losses in general for these territories and their individual regions shows that population outflow in Transnistria began earlier and was more intensive than from the Republic of Moldova. In Moldova, depopulation is intensifying the identity crisis and contradictions between Moldovans and supporters of unification with Romania; in the PMR, the instability of political life, uncertainty of the region's prospects, and an increasing critical attitude towards the authorities.

Lucrarea prezintă analiza comprehensivă a dinamicii populației Republicii Moldova ca stat independent în lumina tendințelor de dezvoltare socioeconomică în perioada 1991-2021. În lucrare sunt evidențiate schimbările importante în dinamica demografică, determinate atât de specificul procesului de tranziție demografică, cât și de transformările economice și sociale profunde. Sinteza evaluativă a unor politici publice majore din ultimele trei decenii este prezentată pentru a stabili contextul analizei actuale. Lucrarea integrează prognoza demografică pentru anii 2019-2040 în trei scenarii (scăzut, mediu și înalt) și se încheie cu un set de recomandări pentru factorii de decizie. Lucrarea este adresată ministerelor, administrației publice locale, precum și cercetătorilor, studenților și altorpersoane interesate.

After a period of steady growth from the early 1990s, when numbers doubled from 1993 to 2004, the annual number of intercountry adoptions fell by more than fifty per cent between 2004 and 2013. The aim of this chapter is to explore this decline in a global context.

In this article, we have described to what extent migration and secularization  undermined the traditional views of Islamic complementary gender roles and determined various forms of gender-related attitudes among migrants coming in Italy from diverse parts of the Muslim world. This issue supports the necessity to consider both religion and origin country in the analyses and not to assume that belonging to specific religion, such as Islam, is associated with unique behaviors or attitudes. Gender traditionalism is not synonymous with Muslim affiliation.
Even if relevant individual characteristics and behaviors are taken into account in the analyses, immigrants from a gender egalitarian country hold more egalitarian attitudes. In this origin country globalization and modernization have increased women’s educational and social opportunities and eased their entry into paid employment, a role traditionally reserved for men. Our findings also suggest that religious Muslims hold less gender egalitarian attitudes than more secular individuals. However, according to the literature, the factual explanatory power of migrants’ religiosity lags far behind its prominence in
public debates: religious commitment is just one among several factors and not even a particularly important one.

En el contexto de una presión creciente sobre el recurso hídrico en nuestro país, en este trabajo hemos optado por distinguir territorialmente dicha presión y explorar el potencial impacto que en ésta puede tener la movilidad de la población entre regiones, entre ciudades y entre los ámbitos urbano y rural. Las condiciones de disponibilidad del agua en el territorio nacional están siendo afectadas ya por el cambio climático. Los efectos se dejarán ver en múltiples dimensiones: intensidad y frecuencia de eventos hidro-meteorológicos, disponibilidad del recurso agua para los diferentes usos consuntivos, y en las decisiones ahora no forzadas de migrar, como una opción de adaptación a estos cambios. Para evitar llegar a “desplazamientos forzados” de la población, las autoridades tendrán que adelantarse a la necesidad de reaccionar y estarán obligadas a tomar medidas preventivas. Por su parte, la sociedad en general deberá estar preparada con información oportuna para enfrentar los riesgos y elevar la capacidad adaptativa y la resiliencia de los sistemas de vida en diferentes contextos.

¡ Hola a todos! Aquí seguimos, en la brecha, con vosotros y presentando nuestro séptimo número de la revista. Pues sí, los problemas superados y con muchas ganas de continuar, juntando fi las y cargando sobre el enemigo, todo por el bien de nuestra disciplina y por supuesto, por vosotros, que sois nuestro leit motiv.

Obiectivul acestui articol este de a prezenta descriptiv și prospectiv situația resurselor umane din agricultura din România având în vedere și premisa că starea cantitativă, a calității și motivației populației ocupate în agricultură este în strânsă legătură cu resursa umană a economiei românești în general. Pentru aceasta voi descrie procesele demografice din mediul rural, populația ocupată în agricultură și formarea resursei umane din agricultură urmărind ca la fiecare capitol să elaborez și sumare pronosticuri. La final am adăugat un scurt capitol de recomandări de politică care enunță doar obiectivele majore ale unor politici care ar trebui să spargă cercul vicios al subdezvoltării agriculturii și al deficitului de forță de muncă din industrie și servicii.

Zhvillimet e popullsisë janë të ndërlidhur me zhvillimet ekonomike e sociale. Analizat e popullsisë synojnë t'u përgjigjen nevojave konkrete, aktuale e prespektive të zhvillimit në cdo zonë. Migracioni i brendshëm solli  mbipopullim të disa rajoneve të vendit, çka për pasojë u shoqërua me ndryshime të mëdha sociale, ekonomike e mjedisore të këtyre zonave. Nga ana tjetër, vetë ndryshimet politike, sociale dhe ekonomike në vend, gjatë tranzicionit, sollën ndryshimin dhe shpeshherë përshpejtimin e fenomeneve demografike. Fluksi masiv i imigrimit drejt qyteteve kryesore e ka tejkaluar kapacitetin mbajtes të tyre në lidhje me strehimin, infrastrukturën bazë, si dhe në kuptimin e veprimtarive që krijojnë vende pune e sjellin të ardhura. Lëvizja migratore e popullsisë ka rezultuar shumë e çorganizuar dhe e pakontrolluar. Rezultat i mungesës së kontrollit ka qenë përhapja abuzive e ndërtimeve të karakterizuara nga konstruksione të reja në më të shumtën e rasteve në brendësi e periferi të qyteteve, duke rritur sipërfaqen e tyre, e cila natyrisht nuk është pajisur me ndonjë lloj shërbimi urbanistik ose ndërlidhjeje. Këtu mund të përmendet zgjerimi i qytetit të Tiranës në zonat periferike si: Bathore, Kamëz, Laprakë, Kombinat, Yzberish etj.

The populace of Bangladesh has always been a hot topic of every social and demographic research in relation with this nation. The digits of this particular factor had an impact on each factors of socio-economic life of Bangladeshis, in development and in drawback. Now the ongoing demographic transition which resulted in a ‘dividend’ may either be a tremendous scope of prosperity or a black hole of nuisance. The academic approaches over this upcoming is focused in this analysis.

The paper reviews migration processes in Poland, both emigration and immigration from late 1980s to 2018 in the context of country’s European integration, demography and labour market shifts. Also it tracks the evolution of Poland’s migration policy and highlights the emigration and immigration trends that would be significant in the nearest future.

The tribals are, by and large, children of nature, their life style being conditioned by their ecosystem. At present there are approximately 250 million tribal people, roughly five percent of the global population. The paper is aimed to focus on the demographical features of tribals in the study area, to study the socioeconomic conditions of tribes and to examine their diseases burden in the study area in Warangal district. It is assumed that the demographical aspects influence the living condition of tribes. Health conditions are depending on level of income and economic conditions leads to healthy life. The paper focuses on demographical issues like type of family, age and sex composition, marital status, educational status and so on. The paper also focuses housing pattern, ownership, electrification, water facilities. It examines labour force participation, occupation, land holding and land values, assets values and their income levels. Tribals are facing problem of different diseases and economic burden on them so on.

This article analyzes correlation between demographic bonus within economic growth in Indonesia.
Demographic bonus assumed to be able to pushing up national economic through growth of
productive manpower. In the case of Indonesia, demographic bonus is still not optimized to the
fullest due to government policy which is still reluctant about it. Indonesian economic growth has
grew through massive consumption from middle class earned from demographic bonus. Consumption,
however, needs to be balanced with productivity so Indonesia can be avoided from
middle-income countries trap. Therefore, this article will be elaborating more deeply towards demographic
bonus in the context of Indonesia economy.

Tuberculosis (TB) mortality declined after the 1918 pandemic, suggesting that influenza killed those who would have died from TB. Few studies have analyzed TB as a direct risk factor for 1918 influenza morbidity and mortality by age and sex. We study the impacts of TB on influenza-like illness (% of population sick) and case fatality (% of cases dying) by age and sex through case-control comparisons of patients (N = 201) and employees (N = 97) from two Norwegian sanatoriums. Female patients, patients at Landeskogen sanatorium, and patients aged 10-39 years had significantly lower morbidity than the controls. None of the 62 sick employees died, while 15 of 84 sick patients did. The case-control difference in case fatality by sex was only significant for females at Lyster sanatorium and females at both sanatoriums combined. Non-significant case-control differences in case fatality for males were likely due to small samples. Patients 20-29 years for both sexes combined at Lyster sanatorium and at both sanatoriums combined, as well as females 20-29 years for both sanatoriums combined, had significantly higher case fatality. We conclude that TB was associated with higher case fatality, but morbidity was lower for patients than for employees. The results add to the study of interactions between bacterial and viral diseases and are relevant in preparing for pandemics in TB endemic areas.

About 15% of Nigerian women are reportedly practising any form of contraception despite widespread knowledge and ongoing efforts to increase its usage. Whereas the prevalence of lactational amenorrhea method (LAM) for contraceptive purposes is reported at 5%, the reason for the low use of this method among lactating mothers is yet to be investigated. Therefore, this study explored knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding LAM as a method of contraception among mothers currently practising exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) in Ibadan, Nigeria. We utilized systematic sampling strategies to select 338 lactating mothers in 2 health facilities and applied a structured questionnaire to measure knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding LAM as a contraceptive method. Data analysis was descriptive; using frequency count, chi-square, and correlation of study outcomes. Although knowledge of EBF was nearly universal (95%), only half of the participants (61%) reported knowing it as a contraceptive method. Fifty-one percent of the respondents previously practised EBF for contraceptive purposes and only 48% were currently using it for contraception. Older women, those with higher income, education level, and parity were less likely to practise LAM solely as a contraceptive method despite engaging in exclusive breastfeeding. Use of contraceptive methods in Nigeria is still low, at 15%. Thus, natural methods such as LAM, potentially offer an alternative. Whereas knowledge of LAM as a method of contraception is high, there are demographic, socio-economic, and other contextual factors that impede its use. Addressing these barriers can potentially increase contraceptive prevalence among Nigerian women.

A dolgozat a születésszabályozás magyarországi társadalomtörténetét feltárni célzó disszertációm Vajszlóra és Besencére vonatkozó eredményeit ismerteti. A kiválasztást az Andorka Rudolf eredményeire adott, Benda Gyulától származó kritika indokolta. Dolgozatom historiográfiája a születésszabályozás generálta társadalmi és szakmai diskurzusokban helyezi el a vizsgált – tágabb és szűkebb – területet. Az időben 1800-tól 1948-ig terjedő időszakot felölelő elemzés a születésszabályozás megjelenésére és terjedésére, társadalmi és vallási hátterére koncentrál. A vonatkozó anyakönyvekből és választói névjegyzékekből felépített adatbázisból 1239 család adatait használtam fel a termékenység-elemzéshez. A dolgozat főbb megállapításai: 1) Vajszlóra és Besencére vonatkozóan az anyakönyvi adatok nem támasztják alá a 18. század végétől elterjedt születésszabályozást, 2) Vajszlón és Besencén a születésszabályozás gyakorlatának kialakulása az iparosok és kereskedők rétegéhez köthető, 3) a születésszabályozás gyakorlatában a felekezeti hovatartozásnak nem volt meghatározó szerepe.

ב-21.12.2017 פורסמו בביירות תוצאות של המפקד הרשמי הראשון של הפלסטינים בלבנון. מפקד אוכלוסין הראה כי בלבנון חיים רק 174,422 פלסטינים ולא 469,331 או 600,000 פלסטינים כפי שהציגו אומדנים הקודמים של אונרר"א והגורמים האחרים.
מדיניות הניפוח של ממדי האוכלוסייה הפלסטינית אינה מוגבלת ללבנון בלבד. אותה מדיניות מיושמת על ידי אונרר"א והרשות הפלסטינית ביהודה, שומרון ועזה. אך בניגוד ללבנונים, המינהל האזרחי הישראלי הפועל ליד משרד הביטחון מקבל את הנתונים הדמוגרפיים של הרשות הפלסטינית כמו שהם, ללא שום בקרה או ערעור. בהתבסס על הנתונים לגבי הגירה הערבית, לתקופה 1967-1996, כפי שהם פורסמו על ידי הלמ"ס הישראלית, כמו גם על הנתונים  לשנים 1997-2007, אותם סיפק המנהל האזרחי בדצמבר 2008, ועל הנתונים של הלמ"ס ארה"ב לשנים 2008-2018, מיהודה, שומרון ועזה היגרו תוך 51 שנה לפחות 834,867 ערבים, מתוכם 516,505 אנשים מיהודה ושומרון, ו-318,362 אנשים מרצועת עזה.
אם נחסיר את נתונים האלה מהסטטיסטיקות שפורסמו על ידי הלמס"פ, גם מבלי לקחת בחשבון את מספר ילדי המהגרים שנולדו בחו"ל הכלולים בהם, ההפתעה מהמספר האמיתי של האוכלוסייה הערבית ביהודה, שומרון ורצועת עזה עשויה להיות לא פחות מרשימה מאשר הייתה זאת שהתרחשה אחרי מפקד האוכלוסין הלבנוני.

En este artículo desarrollo el concepto de necrocapitalismo, definido como las formas contemporáneas de acumulación organizativa que implican la desposesión y el sometimiento de la vida al poder de la muerte. Examino cómo las diferentes formas de poder -institucional, material y discursivo- operan en la economía política y la violencia y desposesión que resultan. Describo algunas formas contemporáneas de acumulación organizativa que implican la desposesión y la muerte y que, por tanto, podrían describirse como prácticas necrocapitalistas; por ejemplo, el impacto de la industria de los recursos en los países en desarrollo y la privatización de la guerra y el ejército. Concluyo discutiendo algunas posibilidades de resistencia y esbozando direcciones para futuras investigaciones.

Ferhunde Özbay Anısına hazırlanan bu kitap, 9 Mart 2018'de Boğaziçi Üniversitesi Sosyoloji Bölümü ev sahipliğinde düzenlenen “Birinci Ferhunde Özbay Anma Konferansı: Türkiye’de Aile, Evlilik ve Kadın İstihdamı” başlıklı konferansta yapılan sunumların yeniden kaleme alınarak bir araya getirildiği makalelerden oluşuyor. Ferhunde Özbay göç, gençlik, demografik davranışlar, kadın bedeni ve emeği alanında yaptığı çalışmalarla ve Türkiye toplumunun demografik yapısının zaman içinde nasıl değiştiğini siyasi iktidarın toplumu şekillendirme hedefi çerçevesinde inceleyerek Türkiye’deki sosyal bilimlere fevkalade önemli bir katkı sağlamıştır. Bu derlemede, Ferhunde Özbay’ın kadın ve aile ekseninde yürüttüğü çalışmalarıyla açılan yoldan ilerleyen genç kuşak araştırmacılar, kadınların özgürleşme sorununun sosyal bilimler açısından olduğu kadar, toplumsal yaşamın sürdürülebilirliği açısından da ne kadar tayin edici bir yerde durduğuna ışık tutuyor; Türkiye’nin bu bağlamda içinden geçtiği güncel süreci farklı kavramsal yaklaşımlar ve metodolojilerle ele alıyorlar. Hepsi kariyerlerinin başlarında olan yazarlar sayesinde Ferhunde Özbay’ın mirasının emin ellerde olduğuna şüphe yoktur. Sosyal bilim anlamında hepimize, insani ve akademik alanda öğrencilerine, meslektaşlarına ve çevresindekilere her zaman ilham ve güç vermiş sevgili Ferhunde Özbay’ı saygı ve minnetle anıyoruz.
