Catherine Hakim
Ashgate, 2004, 298 с.
This book reports on two comparative nationally representative surveys of men and
women in Britain and Spain, two countries chosen to illustrate the diversity of modern
European societies. The British survey was funded within the ESRC Future of Work
Research Programme and was carried out by the Office of National Statistics (ONS).
Using these surveys, Catherine Hakim presents a study of ideal models of the family
and family roles, work orientations, patriarchal values, and lifestyle preferences,
showing how these impact on women's marital histories, fertility, employment patterns,
occupational segregation, and labour mobility, but not on men's labour market participation.
Lifestyle preferences and work orientations have a strong impact on women's activities,
and especially on married women's employment choices, but patriarchal values (which
are most commonly studied by social attitude surveys) have virtually no impact on
behaviour. The analyses demonstrate that political and religious values have virtually
no connection with orientations to employment and family roles. The book also covers
educational homogamy, housing classes and contrasts between ethnic minority groups
in core values and labour market participation.

Englewood Cliffs: Prentice-Hall, 1993, 337 с.
Книга призвана способствовать развитию социологического воображения, без которого,
по утверждению авторов, понимание культуры не представляется возможным. Она адресована
в первую очередь студентам, специализирующимся в области социологии культуры. Кроме
того, она может послужить "окном" в мир социологии культуры для представителей смежных
с социологией дисциплин. Книга дает неплохое представление о динамике культуры и об основных дискуссиях на
тему культуры. Читателю предлагается взглянуть на знакомые ему вещи с новой точки
зрения, заглянуть "за кулисы" культурной организации, с тем, чтобы расширить его
возможности в плане дальнейшего изучения культуры методами социологии.
Авторы старались избежать излишней дидактичности и компилятивности, вместо этого сделав акцент на стимулировании студентов к критическому осмыслению динамичного многообразия подходов к изучению культуры.

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.
