- Description
- This publication introduces readers to some of the dramatic shifts that have taken place in Chinese sexual behaviours and attitudes, and public discussions of sex, since the 1980s. The book explores what it means to talk about ‘sex’ in present-day China, where sex and sexuality are more and more visible in everyday life.

Chapters focus on sex studies, marriage and family planning, youth and sex(iness), gay, lesbian and queer discourses and identities, commercial sex: and HIV/AIDS.

- Description
- Presentatie van de resultaten van nieuw historisch onderzoek naar de invloed van familie op de levenskansen van individuen. Centraal staat de interactie tussen historische actoren en de demografische en socio-economische kenmerken van de families en huishoudens waarvan zij deel uitmaakten. Naast opleidingsniveau, beroep en sociale status van beide ouders bepaalden de omvang en de samenstelling van de familie en het gezin in belangrijke mate de levenskansen van de kinderen. Dit boek biedt een antwoord op de vraag hoe de gezins- en familiale context zich in het verleden vertaalde in de opleiding, migratietrajecten, partnerkeuze en huwelijkskansen, vruchtbaarheid, gezondheid- en sterfterisico's en carrièrekansen van kinderen.

- Description
- This book is about the reshaping of women's lives, loves and dreams since 1950. In this period Walt Disney's film Cinderella gave expression to popular ideas of romance, marriage was a major determinant of female life chances and teenage girls dreamed of Mr Right and happy endings. It ends with the success of Disney's Frozen (2013), a film with relevance to very different times. The book shows how women's expectations and emotional landscapes have shifted since 1950, considering among others the way women's changing life experiences have been mirrored in new expectations about marriage, intimacy and family life and the way new forms of independence through education and work altered women's life ambitions.

- Description
- In 2009 Traister started thebook about the twenty-first century phenomenon of the American single woman. It was the year the proportion of American women who were married dropped below fifty percent: and the median age of first marriages, which had remained between twenty and twenty-two years old for nearly a century (1890–1980), had risen to twenty-seven. But the phenomenon of the single woman in America is not a new one. Historically, when women were given options beyond early heterosexual marriage, the results were massive social change : temperance, abolition, secondary education, and more. Today, only twenty percent of Americans are married by age twenty-nine, compared to nearly sixty percent in 1960.

- Description
- With marriage in decline, divorce on the rise, the demise of the nuclear family, and the increase in marriages and adoptions among same-sex partners, it is clear that the structures of kinship in the modern West are in a state of flux.In this book Godelier contextualizes these developments, surveying the accumulated experience of humanity with regard to such phenomena as the organization of lines of descent, sexuality and sexual prohibitions. Godelier also studies the evolution of Western conjugal and familial traditions from their roots in the nineteenth century to the present. The conclusion he draws is that it is never the case that a man and a woman are sufficient on their own to raise a child, and nowhere are relations of kinship or the family the keystone of society.
