Tamara K. Hareven
Изд-во: Westview Press, 1999, 374 с.
One of the prevailing myths about the American family is that there once existed
a harmonious family with three generations living together, and that this "ideal"
family broke down under the impact of urbanization and industrialization. The essays
in Families, History, and Social Change challenge this myth and provide dramatic
revisions of simplistic notions about change in the American family. In these interdisciplinary
essays that are deeply rooted in history, Hareven provides important perspectives
on family relations in the present, dispels myths about family relations in the past,
offers new directions in research and interpretation, and revises our understanding
of social change. Hareven's essays, which are based on thirty years of research,
combine empirical evidence with theoretical frameworks and discussions of the state
of the art in this exciting field. The essays cover a wide spectrum of issues and
topics such as the organization of the family and the household, the networks available
to children as they were growing up, the role of the family in the process of industrialization,
the division of labor in the family along gender lines, and the relations between
the generations in the later years of life. Coincidentally, the essays revolve around
three central themes: The family's interaction with the process of industrialization,
the life course, and the development of the field of family history--and its future
directions. They are both interdisciplinary and cross-cultural. Professor Hareven
is a pioneer and leader in the development of the field of family history. Her work
makes a major contribution to the theoretical and substantive aspects of scholarship
on family life, past and present, and on social change. Her essays also provide a
fine understanding of this field's development.

David Cheal
Изд-во: University of Toronto Press, 1991, 213 с.
The book takes a broad comparative approach to the theories analyzed, both in terms
of the empirical examples used (from North America, Europe and Australia) and in
the discussion of how old and new approaches interact with one another. Cheal argues
that it is possible to make the sense contemporary family theory by analyzing its
divisions as the result of different experiences of modernity. These experiences
are described as lying along three axes: first, the opposition between social modernism
and its anti-modernists critics; second, the ideological effects of contradictions
within modernity itself; and the third, the emerging difference modernist idealism
and post-modernist skepticism. Another major theme of the book is the profound impact
of feminism on contemporary family studies, and how this has been the catalyst for
so much rethinking of the subject in recent years.

Hilary Anne Pilkington
London, New York: Routledge, 1996, 306 с.
Основной фокус статьи сосредоточен на осмыслении гендерных аспектов трансформации
молодежной российской культурной сцены в постсоветских условиях в их эмпирических
формах - новых стратегиях и практиках.
На основании ряда эмпирических исследований (в том числе, двух кейс-стади: молодежной
культурной сцены в Москве (1988-91 гг.) и 1994 года), автор пытается определить параметры
пост-тусовочного мира и гендерных стратегий в нем. В первой части статьи рассматриваются
процессы маркетизации, наркотизации и вестернизации молодежной культурной активности
в Москве, вторая часть посвящена анализу проблем гендерной идентичности и шовинистической
политики в случае исследования двух современных молодежных культурных формаций ("байкеров"
и "скинхедов").
