Texto completoResumen
This thesis focuses on the working class in Brighton in the period c.1920-1970. I argue that despite rising living standards and increasing mobility rates (among men) classes remained culturally and spatially distinct. While working and middle class lifestyles converged somewhat, class differences were maintained and classes themselves reproduced through the uneven accumulation of economic and cultural capital. Foregrounding the analysis of life histories, class processes are seen to work structurally and biographically; shaping life chances and subjectivities. While work is conceived as significant in configuring social trajectories I demonstrate the degree to which occupational experiences intersect with domestic, familial, associative and neighbourhood cultures to mould social identities. I further investigate how class intersects with gender and generation to mediate experience, and evaluate the relationship between experience, discourse and memory in the formation of accounts of the past.

Texto completoResumen
With people living longer and coming into old age with more diverse relational experiences than previous cohorts (e.g., divorce, cohabitation), researchers anticipate that the so-called baby boomers will be more interested in pursuing romantic relationships in later life than their predecessors. On the other hand, we know that the experience of aging varies among people on the basis of their social locations (e.g., racial, gender, class). As central Appalachia is a place characterized by persistent poverty, I interviewed single, midlife White women from a community in West Virginia (N=11) to investigate (a) their experiences with family life and (b) their expectations for romantic relationships in later life. I used grounded theory methodology to develop a theory of intimacy and family life in central Appalachia. I found that the women who were more integrated into their families of origin had little or no interest in romantic relationships, regardless of their past relationship history. Women who perceived their childhoods as traumatic were less integrated into their families of origin and had a weaker sense of place, but had more interest in finding a romantic partner in later life. I concluded for those with a strong sense of place the importance of the family of origin persisted through midlife and into old age.Ph. D.

Hodges, Nathan Lee. "Blue-Collar Scholars: Bridging Academic and Working-Class Worlds". Scholar Commons, 2016. http://scholarcommons.usf.edu/etd/6256.
Texto completoResumen
This dissertation explores one white working-class family’s hopes, fears, illusions, and tensions related to social mobility. I tell stories from my experiences as a first-generation college student, including: ethnographic fieldwork; interviews with my family, community members, and former teachers; and narratives from other working-class academics to provide an in-depth, evocative, and relational look at mobility. I explore the roots of vulnerability in my family and how I was socialized into understanding belonging and worthiness in particular ways, and how this socialization influences my feelings of belonging and worthiness in the academy. The goal of this research is bridging – past and present selves, working-class and academic cultures, work and family – for me and my family and other first-generation students and their families.

Texto completoResumen
This thesis examines the work of married women in working-class families in Ottawa in 1871. It demonstrates that home production by women for consumption, sale and/or exchange, together with arrangements of household structures, made a primary and fundamental contribution to the survival of the family unit. Women laboured and their labour was vital. Using the 1871 manuscript census, the study analysed the myriad of ways that married women utilized their available resources to reduce expenditures and to increase the wage-based family income. It was the work of women that provided some protection against the insecurity of inadequate wages, seasonal employment, illness or death.

Texto completoResumen
The thesis aims to provide a comprehensive study of working-class home life in the first half of the century. It examines the autonomy of working-class domestic culture by questioning assumptions of emulation and 'trickle down' and assesses the class experience of home. It also shows the diversity of domestic experience within the working class as determined by age, gender status, life cycle, occupation and geographical location. The subjective nature of home life is stressed throughout the thesis. Its main source, over 100 autobiographies, enables working-class people to describe their own experiences. This source shows how people actively participated in the construction of their own domestic environment as well as how they were subjected to it.;Home life is examined through four main concepts: space; time; material culture; and family. The first concept examines the extent, uses and meaning of space to the families in the autobiographies. The second analyses the objects they had in their homes, how they acquired them and which ones they considered were special either to themselves or to members of their family. The third examines domestic rhythms and the allocation of tasks in the home, and the fourth family relationships. The emphasis is on continuities within the period as much as change, and on male as well as female experiences of home. Throughout, the division between the so-called public and private spheres is questioned and the thesis concludes by arguing that these terms are particularly inappropriate for working-class home life in the period 1900-1955.

Texto completoResumen
This thesis examines working-class fatherhood and masculinities in post-war Scotland, the history of which is almost non-existent. Scottish working-class fathers have more commonly been associated with the ‘public sphere’ of work, politics and male leisure pursuits and presented negatively in public and official discourses of the family. Using twenty-five newly conducted oral history interviews with men who became fathers during the period 1970-1990, as well as additional source materials, this thesis explores the ways in which their everyday lives, feelings and experiences were shaped by becoming and being fathers. In examining change and continuities in both the representations and lived experiences of fatherhood during a period of important social, economic, political and demographic change, it contributes new insights to the histories of fatherhood, gender, family, and everyday lives in Scotland, and in Britain more widely. It argues that ideas and norms surrounding fatherhood changed significantly, and were highly contested, during this period. Fathers were both celebrated as ‘newly’ involved in family life, signified by rising attendance at childbirth and increased practical and visible participation in childcare, but also increasingly scrutinised and deemed to be losing their ‘traditional’ breadwinning and authoritarian roles. Although there were significant continuities, a combination of factors caused these shifts, including the changing structure and composition of the labour market, deindustrialisation, the increasing participation of mothers in employment and second-wave feminism. Shifting ideas about gender relations were also accompanied by changing understandings of parent-child relationships and child welfare, in the wake of rising divorce and the growth of one-parent families. In highlighting the complexity and diversity of fatherhood and masculinity amongst working-class men, by placing their relationships, roles, status and identities as fathers at the forefront, and by speaking to men themselves, this thesis adds an important and neglected insight to the Scottish family and provides a fresh perspective on men’s gendered identities. Fathers were central to, rather than on the margins of, family and home life, and fatherhood was, in turn central to men’s identities and everyday lives.

This essay is about classhabitus. It concerns No1Tbottnic railway navvies and other workingÂclass families lifestyle and revealed preferences. Gender and class is seen as important in order to explain gender relations concerning division of labour, childcare and the function of homes. The results show that railway navvies had a clear view concerning appropriate tasks for men and women to perform. The same is true for other working-class families, although they had a more equal view on this. Railway navvies had often bad relations with people outside the family. The children of navvies had a lot of work to perform and these tasks were gender coded. Other workning-class children tasks were more flexible concerning these codes. Living conditions in the homes were generally bad although it was seen as important to arrange things as good as possible.

Jones, Susan Ann. "Women can't play dominos : an ethnographic study of working class life in a Midlands pub". Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2018. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/8150/.
Texto completoResumen
This is a study of class and gender in everyday life on a housing estate in the Midlands. Based on extensive ethnographic research in a pub on the estate, it looks at how identities are constructed in the negotiation of work, relationships, children, and local ‘officials’. It considers how social and cultural capital is formed against the odds and against a widespread pathologising of those struggling to get by. It presents a detailed and contextual understanding of (white) working class identities in the context of neo-liberalism. In doing so, it questions standard sociological accounts of class as well as the official discourse of public policy which represents disadvantage in terms of ‘responsibility’ and ‘aspirations’, while ignoring structural disadvantage.

Texto completoResumen
Magister Psychologiae - MPsychWomen's roles in the workplace have increased but expectations within their family roles have not diminished. Work-family conflict (WFC) occurs when work and family roles are mutually incompatible in some respect. Mothers' representations of their own particular personal contexts seem largely absent from the cultural iconography and so motivations for the study included bringing to light the phenomenological experiences of contemporary full-time working mothers by developing a rich description of their lived experience. These ideas have not been widely explored in South Africa. The study aimed to explore how full-time working mothers experience work-family conflict, including how they conceptualise their dual roles, how salient each role is to them, the factors in the work and family domains which are particularly pertinent for them and any coping strategies they might employ. The study used as a theoretical framework the model of work-family conflict developed by Greenhaus and Beutell in 1985, together with an extension from the work of Amstad, Meier, Fasel, Elfering and Semmer in 2011. The study used a phenomenological methodology. Eight middle-class, professional, full-time working mothers from the Southern Suburbs and City Bowl of Cape Town were interviewed individually, using a semi-structured interview schedule. A qualitative paradigm was used to analyse the interviews. Emotional and cognitive repercussions of WFC were many, including feelings of unsustainability. Some participants acknowledged a need to compromise in order to cope, but the current normative messages are not conducive to this. Participants aspire, not to stop working, because the role of worker is regarded as important for self-definition, but to reduce their overall load. The generalisability of this study was reduced because of its localised ambit, its small size and some similarities in socio-economic profile among the participants. Future studies could further explore the choices or strategies which are successful in reducing WFC.

Williams, Robert. "Solitary practices or social connections? : a comparative study of fathering and health experiences among white and African-Caribbean working class men". Thesis, University of Warwick, 2004. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/4061/.
Texto completoResumen
This study addresses the following research question: what are the implications of African- Caribbean and White working class men's experiences within social connections (within families, friendships, communities and workplaces), for fathering and health experiences? The purposes of this study were to undertake a primary piece of intensive qualitative research, and also to analyse, critically, the study's findings, in order to identify implications for theory, policy, practice and research. This investigation was critical, interpretative and exploratory, informed by the principles of phenomenology and ethnography. Six African-Caribbean and seven White working class men were recruited, using purposive sampling, for two semi-structured individual interviews. This enabled the exploration of the interactive effects and processes of structure and agency, in relation to social class, gender, and ethnicity. The study did not find major differences between the experiences of these two groups of men, although the assets and constraints related to African-Caribbean men's experiences of ethnicity and racism within social connections were evident. Study findings, for both groups of men, indicated that social connectedness within families, communities and workplaces was highly valued, but social connections, material and structural factors also influenced the health of the men interviewed. Furthermore, findings indicated that men's experiences of social connectedness have limitations. Specifically, men's limited insights into the links between social connectedness and health, men's perceived limitations with their communication skills, their solitary methods of dealing with perceived vulnerability, but also the uncertainty associated with their identities as men were significant findings. Indeed, men's experiences of both solitary discourses and practices and social connectedness, regarding fathering and health, were associated with discourses about masculinities. Implications for existing theory, for example Connell's (1995) work regarding masculinities, and Putnam's (1995) work regarding `social capital', are identified. In addition, implications for research, policy and practice are examined, with specific reference to the opportunities for mental health promotion with working class men who are fathers.

This work problematizes the inflections of the offensive of the capital on the work, having as a social-historical context the relation between the productive restructuring and the social reproduction of the working families classes. Part of the presupposition that the reproduction of the capital, to raise deep transformations in the productions, organization of the work and in the social relationships, it also produces determinations in the life and work conditions, in the affectionate relationships and in the family coexistence expressing, so, a subjective way. Thereby, the conditions of reproductions of the work in the scenery aimed by the contemporary capitalism have been demonstrating the crescent impoverishment of the workers, the alimentary insecurity, the shortage of the work, the weakness of the political organization and the regression of the State in the conduction of public policy that characterize the daily violation of human and social rights. In this approach, we seek to contemplate the several configurations of affectionate-sexual coexistence expressed by the family, articulating it to the contemporary work division, pondering about the forms of satisfaction of the needs engendered by the group for preservation of their bonds, in face to the daily adversity which translates to the growing responsibility to assist social d mands and in the impediments to the enrichment of the individuality and human diversity.

Texto completoResumen
This study deals with how the subjects Gardening, Handicraft, Domestic Science and Temperance Instruction were introduced and developed in elementary school (compulsory school) in Sweden during the period 1842-1919. During this same period a capitalist mode of production replaced the feudal one with consequent changes in home life for the people. The school subjects dealt with have been selected to throw light on whether and to what extent the elementary school was used to bring about a reorganization in the lives of wage earner families.The official argument, curricula and school enquiries have been examined. Teaching content in relation to workers' family conditions has been studied in the parish of Skön in the sawmill region of northern Sweden.The main official argument was that the miserable conditions of working class life were caused just as much by ignorant housewives and drunken fathers as by low wages and poor housing. The cure was therefore seen to lie in education, and the introduction of the subjects in question can be seen in the light of this.The study shows how the state gradually took over more and more of the responsibility for child upbringing, and how the schools of the sawmill companies played a part in this process. The results, however, indicate that the actual effect of elementary school teaching on the home lives of sawmill workers was insignificant. Working class poverty was ol course caused primarily by economic and structural factors, but defining the problems in pedagogical terms meant that responsibility could be apportioned at an individual level - and thereby the bourgeoisie reaped considerable ideological profits.Key word: history of education, Swedish compulsory school, Gardening, Handicraft, Domestic Science, Temperance Instruction, working class family, sawmill region.digitalisering@umu

Murakami, Kazuki. "Dignité et identité : famille et école dans les quartiers populaires". Thesis, Paris 4, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA040036.
Texto completoResumen
Dans le discours public sur les quartiers populaires, les familles sont régulièrement accusées d’être responsables des problèmes des enfants, tels que la délinquance et l’échec scolaire. Les familles issues de l’immigration maghrébine et africaine sont plus particulièrement la cible de ces accusations, en références à leurs structures familiales et cultures spécifiques supposées. L’objectif de cette thèse est de réfléchir à la question éducative dans les quartiers populaires à travers l’analyse des discours des parents, des jeunes et des acteurs scolaires et locaux. En s’appuyant sur des enquêtes dans deux quartiers de banlieue parisienne, cette thèse examine tout d’abord le processus de construction locale des « problèmes de familles » autour de l’éducation. Les habitants des quartiers reproduisent les stigmates donnés en les retournant envers les autres. Les acteurs locaux et scolaires mobilisent le contexte culturel des familles immigrées pour rendre compte des enjeux éducatifs auxquels ils font face. Ensuite, le regard se porte sur l’éducation au sein des familles et les expériences des jeunes. Les parents font preuve de passivité envers l’éducation scolaire et l’environnement social du quartier, mais ils essaient de prendre un rôle actif dans la transmission culturelle et religieuse. Les jeunes intériorisent ce contexte culturel et ont plusieurs identités, dont la centrale est d’être musulman. Les institutions solides et les groupes sociaux s’affaiblissent, et les identités et les repères de racine se bousculent avec les expériences des immigrations et des discriminations. La culture d’origine et la religion donnent aux parents et jeunes la dignité et l’identitéIn the debate concerning working-class neighborhoods, families are accused of a lack of responsibility with regard to their children’s educational problems, such as delinquency and school failure. In particular, Maghrebi and African immigrant parents are always at the heart of the discussion, given their family structures and cultural context. This study investigates educational questions in working-class neighborhoods by examining the discourses and experiences of parents, youth, and school and local actors. Based on empirical research conducted in two working-class neighborhoods in the Parisian suburbs, this study firstly shows the process of constructing “family problems” in education at the local level. Stigmas established by society are reproduced among inhabitants to differentiate themselves from others. Local and school actors understand educational issues through the cultural context of immigrant families. Secondly, we investigate the education conducted within families and through young people’s experiences. Parents show passive attitudes vis-à-vis school education and the social environment of their neighborhoods, but they try to play an active role in transmitting culture and religion. Youth internalize this cultural context and have several identities, the most central of which being their identity as a Muslim. Fundamental institutions and social groups are weakened, and identity and cultural roots have become unstable due to immigration and the discrimination. Cultural origin and religion provide parents and youth with dignity and identity

Em uma sociedade, onde a competitividade empresarial encontra-se acirrada e a força de trabalho tende a ser cada vez mais diversificada, na qual as mulheres ocupam importante espaço no mundo profissional, as organizações necessitam adotar estratégias que propiciem, além da lucratividade, um ambiente saudável que priorize o bem-estar das pessoas que delas fazem parte. Nesse contexto, a busca do equilíbrio entre o trabalho e a vida pessoal é uma questão a ser enfrentada por todas as empresas. Dessa forma, essa pesquisa teve por objetivo propiciar um entendimento sobre a atuação de algumas empresas do setor eletroeletrônico de Caxias do Sul em relação ao conflito trabalho-família que pode afetar as mulheres trabalhadoras. O método científico que norteou a pesquisa foi o fenomenológico proposto por Husserl, sendo que esta ocorreu em duas etapas. A primeira etapa da pesquisa foi de caráter exploratório e teve uma abordagem qualitativa. Portanto, voltou-se para a coleta de informações relativas às empresas através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas a fim de verificar os seus posicionamentos quanto ao uso de práticas de suporte instrumental, visando minimizar o conflito trabalho-família, sendo a análise de conteúdo utilizada para esse fim. Na segunda etapa, foi utilizada a concepção descritiva da pesquisa, sendo a abordagem quantitativa. Nesta etapa, foi realizada a coleta de informações por parte das funcionárias, de forma a levantar o perfil sociodemográfico das mesmas e investigar a ocorrência do fenômeno conflito trabalho-família, utilizando-se o método de survey. A população foi composta por quatro empresas fabricantes de eletroeletrônicos de Caxias do Sul, e as amostras configuraram-se como não-probabilística por julgamento e probabilística do tipo amostragem estratificada proporcional. Como resultados, observou-se que as empresas estudadas adotam tais práticas, motivadas principalmente, pela busca de satisfação dos funcionários, redução dos índices de rotatividade e absenteísmo e aumento da produtividade. Identificou-se a ocorrência do conflito trabalho-família entre as funcionárias e um efeito positivo resultante do uso das práticas de suporte instrumental, contribuindo para minimizar esse fenômeno.Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-05-28T16:52:22Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Sarajane de Fatima L de Oliveira.pdf: 841855 bytes, checksum: 916eb1e175b688fabf0223c93a2acdcd (MD5)

In a society, where the competitiveness of the enterprise is growing and the work force tends more to be each time diversified, in which the women occupy important space in the professional world, the organizations needs to adopt strategies that they propitiate, beyond the profitability, a healthful environment that prioritizes well-being of the people who of them are part. In this context, the search of balance between work and personal life is a question to be faced by all the companies. Therefore, this research had for objective to propitiate an understanding on the performance of some companies of the electric appliances sector of Caxias do Sul in relation with the conflict work-family which can affect the feminine workforce. The scientific method that guided the research was phenomenological, as proposed by Husserl, and occurred in two stages. The first stage of the research had an exploratory character and had a qualitative approach. It was realized data collection on the companies through half-structuralized interviews in order to verify their positioning on the use of practical of instrumental support, aiming at minimizing the conflict work-family. In the second stage of the research was used a descriptive conception of the research through a quantitative approach. In this stage, a collection of information on the part of the employees was carried through, in a way to raise their socio-demographic profile and to investigate the occurrence of the work-family conflict phenomenon, using the survey method. The population is composed of four companies which manufacture electric appliances of Caxias do Sul and the samples were configured as non judgment probability and proportional stratified probabilistic sample. As results, it was observed that the studied companies adopt practices motivated mainly by the search of satisfaction for their employees, the reduction of the rotativity and absenteeism indices and the increase in productivity. Occurrence of the conflict work-family was identified between the employees and a positive effect resulting of the use of the practices of instrumental support contributed to minimize this phenomenon.

Texto completoResumen
Cette thèse s’appuie sur une enquête ethnographique menée pendant plusieurs années à Hagoncourt, une petite ville de Lorraine marquée par l’industrie du fer. Elle a pour objet l’histoire sociale de sa « classe populaire », c’est-à-dire d’un ensemble social localement situé rassemblant des individus socialement dominés, issus pour la plupart de familles ouvrières. Du XIXe siècle, jusqu’au milieu des années 1970, à Hagoncourt, l’usine sidérurgique et la mine de fer assurent à la ville et à sa population une prospérité relative, visible aussi bien dans ses cités bien tenues que dans ses nombreux commerces. La fermeture de l’usine puis de la mine, précipite la majorité des Hagoncourtois dans une crise économique et sociale sans précédent : plus que jamais, le chômage et la précarité touchent ou menacent tous les membres de l’ancienne « classe ouvrière ». Après quarante ans de politiques néo-libérales, de reflux du paternalisme aussi bien que du « communisme populaire » et de l’« insubordination ouvrière », ou encore d’oppositions internes exacerbées, le « peuple d’Hagoncourt » semble marqué par une sorte de désespérance à la fois sociale et politique, dont l’abstention aux élections est un indicateur sûr. Cependant, de la « génération du fer » (les « vieux ») à la « génération de la crise » (« les jeunes »), on retrouve une énergie sociale qui laisse penser que la classe populaire d’Hagoncourt est bien toujours en vie socialement. Depuis la crise financière et économique de 2007-2008, les membres de la classe populaire d’Hagoncourt, située dans la vallée de l’Orne-Fensch (où se trouve Hagoncourt) se sont distinguées dans leur luttes pour la survie de l’usine de Gandrange (2008) puis de celle de Florange (2012), avant de nourrir le mouvement des « gilets jaunes » à partir de 2018. De façon générale, ce qu’on peut appeler la « triple vie » ou les trois formes de l’habitus de la classe populaire d’Hagoncourt composent une figure collective contemporaine dans toute ses contradictions et ses convergences, face à la domination sociale : 1) Une morale agonistique ou « guerrière », traditionnellement considérée comme « masculine », qui valorise la force physique ou la rudesse des manières et du langage et qui peut aller jusqu’à un certain nihilisme ; 2) Une morale pacifique, traditionnellement considérée comme « féminine », qui privilégie la manière douce, une forme de timidité et qui peut tendre vers un certain conformisme social ; 3) Une morale politique ou civique, avec un penchant pour l’intérêt général et la recherche de sens, associée à la valorisation de la « culture », qui peut dériver aussi bien vers une sorte de « narcissisme social » que vers une disposition politique « révolutionnaire » résultant d’une « lutte des classes »What can be defined as the « triple life » of the working class, refers to the three forms of the working class’ habitus. The members of the working class do not equally display these forms according to the historical period. If for the “iron” generation sent to the hub or the kitchen since the age of 14 and designed to live a simple rough life in the “small-town”, the “hard model” of the habitus prevails in an evident way; the “crisis generation” that has over a long time been protected by the soft comfort of the family home and a juvenile atmosphere in school, now listens to the propaganda of a world that becomes more “open” and seems to start life in a “gentle slope”. Nevertheless, since 2008 the aggravation of the circumstances of working class’ life for an undetermined period, has led to a hardening of the ensemble in the context of unrestrained capitalism. According to the dominant ideology the working class should have melted into the bourgeoisie ever since the fall of the Berlin wall in the 1990’s. The young generation of the working class finds a new horizon of exploitation and domination. Poverty hits them instead of the “American dream” and a society without classes which they could have imagined while watching TF1. Considering their relationship with politics, it is known that the 1980’s (the Mitterand years) have marked a reflux of “popular communism” and the insubordination of the workers. Although, the years 2000 (the Sarkozy-Hollande-Macron years) come with a little new wind of popular insurrection that grows more and more intense, until it becomes the “yellow tempest” in 2018. Amongst the people of Hagoncourt that have been interviewed, with the exception of the “iron” and “crisis” generations, three forms of habitus can be identified that imply a social existence threatened and weakened by the dominant class: 1) agonistic or warlike morals traditionally considered « masculine », that valorise physical force and brutal manners and language and sometimes tend to a certain nihilism. 2) peaceful morals, traditionally considered “feminine” that give privilege to tender manners, a kind of timidity and sometimes tend to a certain social conformity. 3) political or civic morals with a preference for the general interest and the quest for meaning associated to the valorisation of culture and that can possibly take on a “revolutionary” political disposition

Texto completoResumen
A partir de modèles théoriques issus de divers horizons (sociologie, psychologie, philosophie), cette thèse interroge les rapports entre modes de socialisation et classes sociales. Plus spécifiquement, le questionnement porte sur la possibilité de repérer des traits propres à la culture écrite et à la diffusion de la forme scolaire, que nous regroupons sous l’appellation de traits « scripturo-scolaires », dans les familles éloignées du monde scolaire. En regard de l’échec scolaire important des élèves issus de milieux populaires et de la dévolution progressive de la responsabilité de cet échec aux familles, nous avons observé des parents en train d’accompagner les devoirs scolaires de leur enfant. Pour avancer dans la connaissance de ce que font les parents de ce rôle qui leur est attribué, le choix s’est porté sur l’étude du moment des devoirs scolaires situé à l’interface de l’école et de la famille. Les analyses ont permis d’étudier ce que font les parents avec les tâches scolaires que les enfants doivent réaliser à la maison et ce que cet accompagnement apporte comme éclairage en termes de résistance à la domination scolaire. L’étude porte sur le suivi de six familles populaires précarisées en Belgique francophone durant une année scolaire. La recherche a permis de mettre au jour différentes modalités de rapport à l’école et de rapport à l’apprentissage agencées de multiples manières dans les familles. Elles nous permettent de nuancer l’assignation des classes populaires au seul mode de socialisation oralo-pratique et, ainsi, d’avancer dans la connaissance de celles-ciFrom various theoretical models (sociology, psychology, philosophy), this thesis questioned the relationship between socialization patterns and social classes. More specifically, the study concerns the possibility of identifying specific features of written culture and dissemination of school form gathered under the name of "scripturo-scolaires" features, in remote families of the school world. In view of the important academic failure of students from the working-class and of the gradually shared responsibility for this failure to families, we observed parents assisting their child's homework. To go forward in the knowledge of parenting practices in this role attributed to them, the choice fell on the study of the time homework located at the interface of school and family. Analyses allowed to study what parents do with their children homework and what light this support brings in terms of resistance to school domination. The study covers the follow-up of six less stable popular families in French speaking Belgium during a school year. The research allowed to show different modalities of “relation to school” and “relation to learning” arranged in multiple ways in the families. They enable us to not qualify working classes assignment to the single mode of “oralo-pratique” socialization and, thus, to progress in the knowledge of these ones

Texto completoResumen
This dissertation provides an occupational study of police constables in the three provincial English cities of Manchester, Birmingham, and Liverpool from 1900 to 1939. As a study of police life, it challenges the social control and police historians who support the thesis that policemen lose their class identity on joining the force. My findings indicate that policemen were able to adopt those parts of the police image that were helpful or attractive, such as their role as upholders of justice, without losing their cultural identity. Police constables remained members of the working class and interpreted the duties of policemen within a working-class context. As a study of the working class, this work expands on the theory that working-class members not only had their own culture but also were able to adapt and preserve that culture from interference from the establishment. While Robert Storch put forward this idea for the working class generally, but excluding policemen, I have extended it to include policemen as part of my thesis that policemen need to be recognized as members of the working class. This ability to resist interference from above is apparent in their practice of giving priority to duties that assisted the working class over those that hindered working-class activities and in their continuing working-class marriage patterns in spite of constant attention from their superior officers. The dissertation also confirms the conclusions of Elizabeth Roberts, John Gillis and other historians of the working class on working-class family life, neighborhood life, and sexuality. Having access to written police records rather than the primarily oral evidence of these historians, however, my evidence modifies their conclusions in areas such as premarital sexuality and adultery where oral evidence can be less reliable. Finally, as a history of the everyday lives of police constables, the dissertation allows a group that is usually historically silent to speak for themselves about their lives.

Since the industrial revolution, work and family
have been viewed as separate spheres, with women
relegated to the family sphere. With the advent of women
into the paid labor force, few studies have considered
the potentially complex context of women's work and
family experiences. The purpose of this study was to
examine the impact of family structure, occupational
status, and workplace relationships on women workers'
perceptions of stress.
The sample for this study included 379 women dental
assistants and hygienists who responded to mailed
questionnaires sent to the dental offices where they
worked. The dependent variables used in this analysis
were mental stress, physical stress, and four social
stress items.
Analysis of variance was performed for the family
structure groups on physical, mental, and social stress
items. Single parents and parents in general were
especially stressed in terms of financial stress and
marital stress. The second series of analyses included
t-tests on stress by occupation. Dental assistants had
more financial stress than hygienists. Hygienists had
more mental stress than assistants. Workplace
relationships were assessed in the full regression
models. Frequency of talking with fellow workers was
strongly and positively associated with financial
problems. The full regression models supported the
findings in earlier analyses that tensions from children
and financial problems were associated with the presence
of children in the home.
The findings in this study suggest that for women
workers, work and family do not occupy separate spheres.
Women workers think about family matters at the workplace
and discuss them with their other women workers. Further
research needs to focus on women workers, especially
those in traditionally female occupations, and the work
and family connections for these workers.Graduation date: 1992

In order to realize the parent-child interaction both in Taiwan and Vietnamese New Immigrant woman’s working class family, this research was proceed with the research method of participant observation and informal interview in two families which fit in with the condition above for half a year. The research result showing： In Taiwan family, mother gets support and help from her husband’s backing, furthermore, she is good at making use of her interpersonal relationship and material resources owing to the effect of her own growing experiences and job. Besides, she pays attention on children’s school work and etiquette but ignores their regular manners. Speaking of regular manners, maybe because of her children’s difference on age and sex, she treats elder sister strictly but tolerantly to younger brother. So that elder sister comes into cheating or resisting and younger brother acting like a spoiled child and evading mother. On the other hand, in Vietnamese New Immigrant woman’s family, grandmother absolutely has power. She discriminates against and dissatisfied her daughter-in-law because of culture and personality conflict. Grandmother interferes with grandchildren’s rearing by the way of tempers justice with mercy. Children cater to their grandmother’s pleasure for avoiding punishment and fulfilling need. They also intimidate and resisting their mother. Although mother uses beat and scold to restraint children’s bad behavior, she doesn’t persist in her parent-child interaction attitude. The reason is probably because of she is under the control of family, community and economy.

Texto completoResumen
Drawing upon gender- and life-course perspectives, this study addresses a number of conceptual gaps in our understanding of linkages between gender-role ideology, depression, and marital quality across the transition to parenthood. It employs a unique sample of 120 working-class, full-time dual-earner heterosexual couples to (a) explore linkages between marital partners' ideology and their depression, love, and conflict while accounting for the inherent dependence in partners' data; (b) examine effects of spousal concordance/discordance in ideology; and (c) compare the performance of a global gender ideology measure (GRI) versus a measure specific to economic provision roles within a family (PR). Couples were interviewed antenatally (third trimester of pregnancy) and postpartum (six months and one year after their baby's birth). In general, new mothers' greater egalitarianism was found to be associated with women's lower depression and lower marital conflict, whereas new fathers' greater egalitarianism was associated with more marital love. The influence of egalitarianism on men's reported conflict level depended upon the proportion of family income he made. When differences between relationship partners' global gender ideology or provider role views were used to predict outcomes, a different pattern of findings emerged. Women who held more egalitarian provider role views than their male partner reported more love and less relationship conflict than women who held more traditional provider role views than their partner. Men who were more egalitarian than their partner or who held more egalitarian provider role views than her reported lower depression than men who were more traditional than their partner. Findings argue for the importance of considering gender ideology on the dyadic level in addition to the individual level. The two different gender ideology measures (GRI and PR) were generally found to have similar effect sizes, with respective strengths in different contexts. The discussion highlights the need for future research to consider domestic work roles in concert with paid labor roles when conducting family research, as these two concepts are inextricably linked.

Haley, Heather-Lyn. "The impact of child care choices on the social networks of working-class couples across the transition to parenthood". 2003. https://scholarworks.umass.edu/dissertations/AAI3110498.
Texto completoResumen
This study uses a targeted sample of 138 couples in Western Massachusetts to examine the impact of child care choices on social networks across the transition to parenthood and return to work. Dual-earner couples were interviewed separately during the third trimester of their first pregnancy and again near the child's first birthday. This study seeks to determine whether reliance on child care providers with different relationships to the couple influenced new mothers' and fathers' ability to maintain a diverse set of relationships with others. More specifically, it is hypothesized that as one draws on resources from a wider network to provide child care (expanding from the couple only to her kin, his kin, some combination of both sets of kin, and finally outward to non-kin providers), that one will have the ability to maintain a wider circle of contacts following the transition to parenthood and return to employment. This research has uncovered significant differences in new parents' social networks. As predicted by previous research, women's networks were more strongly influenced by the transition than men's, and gender differences in network composition, especially the percentage who are coworkers, intensified. A prenatal gender difference in network size dissipated by the baby's first birthday, with men's network size decreasing more than women's to lead to similar size postnatally. Regression results suggest that gendered patterns are influenced by choice of child care provider. Men's networks appear most restricted by a couple-only child care strategy, as men who used any other child care option reported ties with significantly more coworkers than men providing care while their partners worked. Women appear to have the least restrictions, and the most signs of diversity, when they chose a provider unrelated to either parent. At the second interview, women reporting use of a non-kin provider had significantly lower frequency of contact with others than those using their own kin, fewer partner's kin than those using their partner's kin for child care, and a higher percentage of coworkers than those using no child care.

This thesis aims to investigate Hayao Miyazaki’s animation film Spirited Away. Hayao Miyazaki, the Master of Japan’s animation film director, created many works regarded as the classics of Japanese animation such as Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind, Laputa：Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, and Porco Rosso. Spirited Away is the one which received the Academy Award for the best film and was the highest-grossing animation film in Japan's history at the time of its release. In addition, it is one of the Japanese animation films embodying the cultural significance. Through a close textual analysis of charaters and narrative structure in the film, the thesis aims to investigate how the issues of the middle-class, the ruling class, the laborers and the consumption behaviors in Japanese capitalist society are reflected in Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away.

This current study probes into the perception of dynamic interpersonal interaction by means of narrative and action research, delineating the process of growing up during which I was significantly colored by the standardized design of education system, during which I capitalized on the resources proffered by the community, and after which I culminated a go-between, who perfectly bypassed the real interaction when performing and meeting all the external requirements imposed. I traced back to the root of my working class family and the disparity between ideal and reality. Only by thoroughly and meticulously placing the family relation under the microscope for scrutiny can I disrobe myself off the phantasm that a person’s assiduousness is a ticket to an elevation of his or her social ranking. By doing so, I could really put my foot down and pinpoint the condition of working class family in the developing economy of Taiwanese society. This paper aims to provide a retrospect into how after an extremely individualized self-development was actualized, I arrived at an epiphany, which in turn propelled me to faithfully identify what a working class family is.

Texto completoResumen
This study was designed to identify what, if any, communications occurred between working-class mothers, who had experience as sole supporters of families, and their adolescent daughters to socialize the daughters to the role of education in the daughters' lives. Additionally, this study was designed to determine whether there was an intergenerational transmission of educational values between working-class mothers and their daughters, and to determine if mothers are their daughters' first educational role models or mentors. The participants were a homogeneous sampling of seven Caucasian working-class mother and daughter pairs from two rural western Massachusetts mill towns. After an initial questionnaire which helped to identify prospective participants, semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with the pairs and a topical guide was used to gather comparable data from all participants. Thematic analysis was conducted to analyze the data. Participants in this study provided insights into both multigenerational and intergenerational messages transmitted across generations and the mechanisms by which those messages were transmitted. They also provided insights into how messages from their working-class work ethic both shaped and contradicted their aspirations for success. The intersection of social class and the mothers' experiences as sole supporters revealed specific messages about working-class values and what it meant for the participants to be successful or not. The mothers in this study used these messages to purposefully push their daughters toward success, which they believed began with a four-year college degree. Finally, this study revealed that these working-class mothers were their daughters' first educational role models and mentors. However, due to gaps in procedural knowledge and the mothers' passivity in assisting daughters in obtaining information that would help them prepare for college, there became a point where most mothers became ineffective mentors, thus highlighting the need for positive role models and mentors, for both mothers and daughters. Additionally, several unarticulated contradictions emerged between the messages and with regard to the participants' desire for success. The paper concludes with a discussion about implications for future research and practice.

In the financial industry, there is a high demand for employees to possess all the necessary skills and motivation to perform highly specialized functions, and handle demands that accompany increasing stress levels.
The aim of the research was to determine whether there is a relationship between work and non-work stressors and work-life balance in the Global Market Trading industry.
A cross-sectional survey design was used, with a sample of 72 global market trading professionals drawn from a financial institution in Gauteng. Two questionnaires and a biographical questionnaire were administered. The questionnaires proved to be reliable.
The power of the study was calculated. Descriptive statistics and Spearman correlation was used to organise, summarise and describe the data.
The findings of the study show that as global market trading professional’s intrinsic factors at work and stress regarding their personal time increases, their experience of negative WHI increase as well.Industrial and Organisational Psychology
