October 2015Familiäre Pflichten
by Monika Betzler, Barbara Bleisch
Familiäre Beziehungen gehen mit einer Reihe von Pflichten einher, deren Begründung und Inhalt umstritten sind. Sie lassen sich nicht unabhängig davon bestimmen, was eine Familie ausmacht. Jenseits dieser Definitionsfrage spielen in der aktuellen moralphilosophischen Debatte verschiedene Typen familiärer Pflichten eine zentrale Rolle: parentale Pflichten, die Eltern ihren Kindern schulden, filiale Pflichten von Kindern gegenüber ihren Eltern und fraternale Pflichten zwischen Geschwistern. Der Band führt umfassend in die Thematik ein. Die Beiträge stammen von Norbert Anwander, David Archard, Rüdiger Bittner, Harry Brighouse, Anca Gheaus, Johannes Giesinger, Axel Honneth, Simon Keller, Claudia Mills, Amy Mullin, Laura M. Purdy, Christian Seidel, Adam Swift und Ursula Wolf.

Humanities & Social SciencesNovember 2025Humanitarian mobilisation in Central and Eastern Europe
Local, national, and international perspectives
by Doina Anca Cretu, Michal Frankl
By focusing on aid Central and Eastern Europe, the volume adds to the existent scholarly explorations of modern humanitarianism, its actors and practices. In the twentieth century, aid workers assisted victims of war and earthquakes, delivered food, supported health care, provided childcare, or sheltered refugees. The contributors not only reconstruct these diverse histories and their protagonists, but also bring international, national, and local actors together: from grassroots activists to private associations to state-driven "socialist humanitarians" to large Western aid organizations. In doing so, they challenge the often unidirectional, from West-to-East, and asymmetrical perspective on donor-recipient relationships in humanitarian processes.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2024Politicising and gendering care for older people
Multidisciplinary perspectives from Europe
by Anca Dohotariu, Ana Paula Gil, Lubica Volanská
This book offers a new critical framework for understanding the processes of politicising and gendering care for older people and their manifestations in several European contexts. It interrogates how care for older adults varies across time and place while searching for an in-depth comprehension of how it becomes an arena of political struggle and the object of public policy in different countries and at various societal and political levels. It brings together multidisciplinary contributions that examine the issue of care for older people as a political concern from many angles, such as problematising care needs, long-term care policies, home care services, institutional services and family care. The contributions reveal the diversity of situations in which the processes of politicising and gendering care for older adults overlap, contradict or reinforce each other while leading to increased gender (in)equalities on different levels.
