Someone to Talk to
ISBN: 9780190661427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Someone To Talk To reveals the often counter-intuitive nature of social support, showing that Americans often take pains to avoid close friends and family-their "strong ties"-when deciding on whom to rely. In contrast, they often confide in "weak ties," as the need for understanding or empathy trumps their fear of misplaced trust. Amid a growing wave of big data and large-scale network analysis, Mario L.

Unanticipated Gains: Origins of Network Inequality in Everyday Life
ISBN: 9780199764099 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Social capital theorists have shown that some people do better than others in part because they enjoy larger, more supportive, or otherwise more useful networks. But why do some people have better networks than others? Unanticipated Gains argues that the practice and structure of the churches, colleges, firms, gyms, childcare centers, and schools in which people happen to participate routinely matter more than their deliberate "networking." Exploring the experiences of New York City mothers whose children were enrolled in childcare centers, this book examines why a great deal of...

ISBN: 9780226762920 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For decades now, scholars and politicians alike have argued that the concentration of poverty in city housing projects would produce distrust, alienation, apathy, and social isolation the disappearance of what sociologists call social capital. But relatively few have examined precisely "how" such poverty affects social capital or have considered for what reasons living in a poor neighborhood results in such undesirable effects.

Reconsidering Culture and Poverty
ISBN: 9781412988988 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Culture has returned to the poverty research agenda. Over the past decade, sociologists, demographers, and even economists have begun asking questions about the role of culture in many aspects of poverty, at times even explaining the behavior of low-income populations in reference to cultural factors. Unlike their predecessors, contemporary researchers rarely claim that culture will sustain itself for multiple generations regardless of structural changes, and they almost never use the term pathology, which implied in an earlier era that people would cease to be poor if they changed...
