Give and Take in Families Studies in Resource Distribution

Give and Take in Families Studies in Resource Distribution

Originally published in 1987 now with a new preface the focus of this book is the distribution of material resources notably money work care and food within and between households. Hitherto social policy research had tended to roll households and families into one and consider them as ‘private’ spheres which only connected with society via the male head of household – the ‘breadwinner’. Examination of resource distribution had stopped short at the door of the household. The contributors to Give and Take in Families open up the ‘Black Box’ of the family and explore the assumption that resources are equitably distributed between household members. A dominant concern is with gender relations. Each study attempts to make women – as resources in caring for other people as providers of income as transformers of income into goods and services – visible in the household unit. Findings from nine empirical studies are presented examining resource distribution in relation to the composition of households and the life cycles and life experiences of household members. A wide variety of household types is considered and attention is given to households undergoing changes (such as divorce and unemployment) that are likely to have major implications for household structure and resources. The implications of these innovative and thought-provoking studies for social policy are considerable with relevance to the fields of inequality and income support the provision of care for children and the elderly the labour market and divorce law. This book will still appeal to practising researchers and students in the social sciences particularly women’s studies. | Give and Take in Families Studies in Resource Distribution

Teaching Climate Change for Grades 6–12 Empowering Science Teachers to Take on the Climate Crisis Through NGSS

Teaching Climate Change for Grades 6–12 Empowering Science Teachers to Take on the Climate Crisis Through NGSS

Looking to tackle climate change and climate science in your classroom? This timely and insightful book supports and enables secondary science teachers to develop effective curricula ready to meet the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) by grounding their instruction on the climate crisis. Nearly one-third of the secondary science standards relate to climate science but teachers need design and implementation support to create empowering learning experiences centered around the climate crisis. Experienced science educator instructional coach and educational leader Dr. Kelley T. Le offers this support providing an overview of the teaching shifts needed for NGSS and to support climate literacy for students via urgent topics in climate science and environmental justice – from the COVID-19 pandemic to global warming rising sea temperatures deforestation and mass extinction. You’ll also learn how to engage the complexity of climate change by exploring social racial and environmental injustices stemming from the climate crisis that directly impact students. By anchoring instruction around the climate crisis Dr. Le offers guidance on how to empower students to be the agents of change needed in their own communities. A range of additional teacher resources are also available at www. empoweredscienceteachers. com. | Teaching Climate Change for Grades 6–12 Empowering Science Teachers to Take on the Climate Crisis Through NGSS

New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes

New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes

Over the last number of years there has been a growing interest in the analysis of complex networks which describe a wide range of real-world systems in nature and society. Identification of the central elements in such networks is one of the key research areas. Solutions to this problem are important for making strategic decisions and studying the behavior of dynamic processes e. g. epidemic spread. The importance of nodes has been studied using various centrality measures. Generally it should be considered that most real systems are not homogeneous: nodes may have individual attributes and influence each other in groups while connections between nodes may describe different types of relations. Thus critical nodes detection is not a straightforward process. New Centrality Measures in Networks presents a class of new centrality measures which take into account individual attributes of nodes the possibility of group influence and long-range interactions and discusses all their new features. The book provides a wide range of applications of network analysis in several fields – financial networks international migration global trade global food network arms transfers networks of terrorist groups and networks of international journals in economics. Real-world studies of networks indicate that the proposed centrality measures can identify important nodes in different applications. Starting from the basic ideas the development of the indices and their advantages compared to existing centrality measures are presented. Features Built around real-world case studies in a variety of different areas (finance migration trade etc. ) Suitable for students and professional researchers with an interest in complex network analysis Paired with a software package for readers who wish to apply the proposed models of centrality (in Python) available at https://github. com/SergSHV/slric. | New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes
