Abstract:
The aim of this article is to sketch the outlines of a social and spatial arrangement linking the household with its neighborhood. The fundamental theoretical and policy issue considered here is the sufficiency of the model of household isolation that has prevailed in the United States since the post-World War II era. Contrary to Talcott Parsons, who viewed that model as the end point of family evolution, critics at the time perceived it as having serious structural flaws. They argued for the reinvention of a meso layer of society linking the household more closely with its neighborhood. This

Objective Every health system needs to take action to shield households from the expense of medical costs. The Ethiopian government implemented community-based health insurance (CBHI) to protect households from catastrophic health care expenditure (CHE) and enhance the utilization of health care services. The impact of CBHI on CHE with total household expenditure and non-food expenditure measures hadn’t been studied, so the study aimed to evaluate the impact of CBHI on CHE among households in Kutaber district, Ethiopia.

This study examines, in a developing-country context, the contribution of community forestry to household income with particular emphasis on group heterogeneity and equity in benefit distribution. The economic analysis of household-level benefits reveals that poorer households are currently benefiting less in absolute terms from community forestry than less poor households. In terms of the contribution of forests to total household income, the study results suggest that the poor are actually less dependent on forests than the rich, a finding that is somewhat contradictory to results from other

This article systematically and quantitatively characterizes interaction dynamics and community formation based on changes in spatial patterns of contemporaneous households. We develop and apply a geospatial routine to measure changing extents of household interaction and community formation from AD 600 to 1280 on the Mesa Verde cuesta in southwestern Colorado. Results suggest that household spatial organization was shaped simultaneously by the maintenance of regular social interaction that sustained communities and the need for physical space among households.

We identified a high level of potential contact between dog-owning households; most households walked their dogs in only a few areas but a small number visited many. Highly connected households were more likely to have multiple dogs, walk their dogs off lead, and own Working, Pastoral or some Terrier types. Similarly, most areas were only visited by a few households but a few were visited by many. Despite ide

One of the ways that can be done to reduce the amount of waste is by managing waste from the household level as its source. The 3R system (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), which has been advocated by various groups, has not shown significant results, thus it requires concrete efforts so that it is not just a slogan. Households are the initial key to waste management considering that households are the largest producers of waste. By looking at these conditions, household-based waste management education is one of the important ways to overcome the waste problem.This community service activity aims to i
