Description:
In this paper we explore the impact of the economic recession of 2008 on gender inequality in the labour force in Central and Eastern European countries. We argue that job and occupational segregation protected women’s employment more than men’s in the CEE region as well, but unlike in more developed capitalist economies, women’s level of labour force participation declined and their rates of poverty increased during the crisis years. We also explore gender differences in opinions on the impact of the recession on people’s job satisfaction. For our analysis we use published data from EUROSTAT and our own calculations from EU SILC and ESS 2010., Beáta Nagy, Éva Fodor., and Obsahuje seznam literatury

Language:

Description:
Western moral and political theorists have recently devoted considerable attention to the perceived victimisation of women by non-western cultures. In this paper, the author argues that conceiving injustice to poor women in poor countries primarily as a matter of their oppression by illiberal cultures presents an understanding of their situation that is crucially incomplete. This incomplete understanding distorts Western theorists’ comprehension of our moral relationship to women elsewhere in the world and so of our theoretical task. It also impoverishes our assumptions about the intercultural dialogue necessary to promote global justice for women., Alison M. Jaggar, and Anglické resumé

Description:
Recenzentka představuje knihu francouzského historika, profesora pařížské Sorbonny a odborníka na dějiny reprezentací, symbolů a obrazů, která se zabývá fenoménem "lidské spodiny", jak se vynořil a proměňuje v euroamerické kultuře od počátku 19. století do současnosti. Zdánlivě neuchopitelné téma, unikající nástrojům sociálních věd, se autor nesnaží analyzovat metodami historické sociologie, ale prostřednictvím jeho administrativních, žurnalistických, turistických a uměleckých reprezentací. Důležité podle recenzentky je, jak autor převrací perspektivu a ukazuje, že dějiny lidské spodiny jsou především dějinami většinové společnosti a její potřeby popsat a pojmenovat své odvrácené stránky a strach z měnícího se světa, potřeby vylučovat, moralizovat a disciplinovat. Geografického omezení na frankofonní, anglofonní a hispanofonní svět lze sice litovat, může být ale také inspirující výzvou., The book under review, by the French historian Dominique Kalifa (is Director of the Centre for Nineeteenth-century History at the University of Paris, where he specializes in the history of crime, transgression, social control, and mass culture in nineteenth and early twentieth-century Europe, particularly France), is concerned with the phenomenon of the "lower depths" (or "dregs of society"), as they emerged and changed into Euro-American culture, from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the present. The author does not seek to analyse this seemingly ungraspable topic using the methods of historical sociology, for it has long evaded study by the means available to the social sciences. Instead, he turns to the ways the subject has been represented by bureaucracies, journalists, tourism, and art. According to the reviewer, it is important how the author inverts the perspective, and demonstrates that the history of the dregs of society is mainly the history of majority society. That is to say, majority society has felt a need to describe and name its dark side and its fear of a changing world, to exclude, moralize, and discipline. One may regret that the work is limited to the francophone, anglophone and hispanophone worlds, but that means also that the topic remains an inspiring challenge to other scholars., [autor recenze] Lucie Dušková., and Obsahuje bibliografii a bibliografické odkazy

Type:

Subject:
poverty, deprivation, social exclusion, social policy, unemployment, labour market, and Czech Republic
Language:
Czech
Description:
The purpose of the study is to explore the relationship between forms of labour market marginalisation, understood here in terms of labour market status and job quality on the one hand, and income disadvantage, material deprivation and social exclusion on the other hand. Public policies that aim to improve labour market position and the income level of people disadvantaged in the labour market are also assessed. The authors draw on data from a survey on social exclusion in the Czech Republic focusing on people who were welfare benefits recipients in 2004 or considered their situation to be comparable to that of welfare recipients. The authors show that labour market marginalisation is transparent not only during unemployment spells (often repeated and longterm) but also in the case of temporary, low paid and poor quality jobs. The income levels of people employed in the lowest segment of the labour market and of the unemployed are similar, while the deprivation of the unemployed is greater with regard to the possibilities open to them to influence the life course and opportunities of them and especially their families. The authors point out the under-use of welfare benefits and identify measures that could improve the standard of living and human capital of people who are disadvantaged. While some disadvantaged people continue to be active in the labour market and perceive work incentives, the authors also identify the poverty traps that emerge for the fraction of them who become discouraged and welfare-dependent.
