The Social Dimension of Social Housing Spectormag GbR

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Gesellschaftliche Debatten über Wohnverhältnisse und Wohnungsbau werden inzwischen in weiten Teilen der Welt mit großer Dringlichkeit geführt - womit auch die Frage nach sozialem Wohnungsbau erneut ins Zentrum der öffentlichen Diskussion rückt. Unklar ist allerdings, was eigentlich das "Soziale" des sozialen Wohnungsbaus ausmachen soll. Dieses Buch will unser Wissen über sozialen Wohnungsbau vermehren und eine Diskussion anstoßen, worauf die Charakterisierung "sozial" verweist (oder verweisen soll). Es ist eine Einladung zu einer Reise über Kontinente und durch Konzepte, ein Kaleidoskop sozialer, politischer und kultureller Realitäten. 20 kurze Essays beschreiben anhand von Fallstudien aus verschiedenen Ländern das soziale Leben in Sozialwohnungen. Zehn Theoriekapitel reflektieren aus der Perspektive unterschiedlicher Disziplinen die globalen Herausforderungen, zu deren Bewältigung in den Beispielen jeweils lokale Ansätze gefunden werden: Migration und Mobilität, soziale Ungleichheit und soziale Gerechtigkeit, veränderte Haushaltsstrukturen, (Re-)Konstruktionen von Familie, neue Technologien und die Neuverteilung von Care-Aufgaben. Simon Güntner ist Professor für Raumsoziologie an der TU Wien. Juma Hauser arbeitet als Konzeptkünstlerin und Gestalterin in Wien. Judith M. Lehner arbeitet als Architektin und Stadtforscherin am Research Center New Social Housing an der TU Wien. Christoph Reinprecht ist Professor für Soziologie an der Universität Wien.--Housing has become a key concern in most parts of today's world, putting social housing again at the centre of public debate. However, it is not clear what the "social" in social housing actually means. This book sets out to increase our knowledge about social housing and stimulate an ongoing discussion about what the social refers to (or is meant to refer to). The book invites you on a journey across continents and concepts, offering up a kaleidoscope of social, political, and cultural realities. Twenty short essays, based on case studies from around the world, describe and illustrate the social life in social housing. Ten theoretical chapters, written from the perspective of different disciplines, reflect on the global challenges behind the local responses which the cases represent: migration and mobility, issues of social inequality and social justice, changing household patterns, family (re)constructions, new technologies, and care arrangements. Simon Güntner is a professor of spatial sociology, TU Wien. Juma Hauser is a conceptual artist and designer based in Vienna. Judith M. Lehner is an architect and urban researcher at the Research Centre for New Social Housing, TU Wien. Christoph Reinprecht is a professor of sociology, University of Vienna

Understanding Emotion at Work SAGE Publications Inc

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

'Most folks in organizations dichotomize reason and emotion, often treating emotion as an uncommon or marginal occurrence. Written in a clear and lively style, Steve Fineman's book, Understanding Emotion at Work, dispels this notion as he demonstrates how emotions infuse most practices in organizational life, including leading, decision making, organizational change, gender relations, stress, and downsizing. Sprinkled with vivid examples, Fineman captures the positive benefits of emotions at work as well as the darker side of feelings and despair. Scholars, students and practitioners alike will glean important insights from the lens of emotion that Fineman brings to the subtleties of organizational life' - Linda L Putnam, Texas A&M University 'Stephen Fineman has written a wise and engaging text about emotions and how they play out in and around organizations. He underscores, with a range of fine examples, thoughtful commentary and careful scholarship, the essential role of emotions in organizational life. He applies his lens to such issues as recruitment, leadership, decision making and change.He extends the reach of emotions into the virtual world of work and he makes apparent the heavy costs to people and their organizations of toxic emotions that stem from bullying,harassment and downsizing. A must-read in any curriculum dealing with the study of organization' - Peter Frost, Edgar F. Kaiser Professor of Organizational Behaviour, Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration, University of British Columbia, Canada Author of Toxic Emotions at Work HBS Press 2003 'Going to work can be a great joy, a great pain, or a mixture of the two. This clearly written, engaging and authoritative book demonstrates the vital necessity of understanding how emotions permeate work organisations at every level and in every situation. No student of work and its organisation can afford to neglect this important area of study. And no writer on work and organisation is better placed to go to the heart of these matters than Stephen Fineman' - Professor Tony J Watson, Professor of Organisational and Managerial Behaviour, Nottingham Business School 'In this book, Professor Stephen Fineman has done more of what he does best writing eloquently and perceptively about emotions in organizations.In this case, he is writing directly for students, both undergraduates and postgraduates, and uses a wide range of disciplinary insights to show how emotions are inextricably embedded in organizational life. His book helps to launch students on a voyage of self-discovery to learn for themselves how emotions impact upon them and their colleagues. As someone who has long challenged the "emotion-less" view of emotion that characterizes much of the research on this phenomenon, he uses his considerable skills to convey the importance, richness and nuance of emotion. Nor does he shrink away from tackling the darker side of organizational emotional life challenging students to reflect on the agony, as well as the ecstasy, that passionate emotions can cause. This book is a valuable resource for teachers wanting to introduce students to organizations, and a fascinating and astute aid for students interested in learning about them - Professor Cynthia Hardy, Department of Management, University of Melbourne 'Organizational life is shot through with emotions, spawning a growing interest in topics ranging from emotional intelligence to violence at work.Stephen Fineman provides a much-needed survey of these topics, capturing their sprawling breadth without sacrificing depth. Moreover, he succeeds in conveying the everyday feel of emotions in organizational life in a way that is both engaging and informative' - Blake Ashforth, Jerry and Mary Ann Chapman Professor of Business, W P Carey School of Business, Arizona State University Understanding Emotion at Work gets to the heart of what binds and breaks organizations: emotion. It explores beyond the surface of work to the rich emotional life bubbling underneath, showing what employees and managers constantly deal with but are often ill-equipped to do so. This is the first introductory book on emotions and it's aimed specifically at students of management and organization studies. Written accessibly, it avoids pat prescriptions, but leaves the reader with challenging questions about the intrisic nature of emotions to the design and management of organizations. Drawing on a rich discipline-field, including psychology, sociology and organizational theory, Stephen Fineman explores a number of familiar and not so familiar work arenas.He examines the way emotion penetrates leadership, decision-making and organizational change as well as newer topics like the virtual side of organizations. Finally, he addresses the darker side of emotion in the context of bullying, violence, sexual harassment and downsizing. Understanding Emotion at Work will shed light on this growing subject for advanced undergraduates and postgraduates studying organizational behaviour, HRM or organizational psychology.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

This edited book makes a significant contribution to the relatively under-explored field of multilingualism and politics, approaching the topic from two key perspectives: multilingualism in politics, and the politics of multilingualism. Through the lens of case studies from around the world, the authors in this volume combine theoretical and empirical insights to examine the inter-relation between multilingualism and politics in different spheres and contexts, including minority language policy, national identity, the translation of political debates and discourse, and the use of multiple, often competing languages in educational settings. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of politics, sociology, sociolinguistics, language policy, and translation and interpreting studies.
