Paul Woodman has called it the “great toponymic divide”, but the endonym/exonym distinction is not a concept confined solely to toponymy, it can be transferred to all name categories, where the name used by insiders may differ from the name used by outsiders, e.g., to ethnonyms, anthro ponyms, names of institutions, where we frequently meet, for instance nicknames and derogative designa- tions used by outsiders. But there is no doubt that this divide has its focus on toponymy, since it corresponds there to two basic human attitudes: (1) to the distinction between ‛mine’ and ‛yours’, ‛ours’ and ‛theirs’, and (2) to territoriality, the desire to own a place, which appears at all levels of the construction of human community  — from the level of the family up to that of nations. Thus, it has always a political, social, and juridical meaning and is frequently a reason for dispute and conflict. However, even after long and intensive discussions, e.g., in the UNGEGN Working Group of Exonyms, to date we can still see rather divergent approaches to this divide. There is the linguistic approach regarding the endonym and the exonym rather as poles of a continuum, with various intermediary stages. Alternatively, there is the cultural-geographical approach that accepts no other criteria than the spatial relation between the name-using community and the geographical feature denoted by the name. The article elaborates on these items, mainly on the basis of the discussions and publications of the UNGEGN Working Group on Exonyms since 2002.

This article brings memory studies and queer theory into conversation with animal studies through an examination of the process of mourning involved in giving up the use of animal products. Focusing on the use of leather in some queer subcultures, and combining autoethnographic reflection with other forms of testimony, the article argues that giving up leather involves a dual process of mourning: for the lives of the animals whose skins are used in those practices and for the intrahuman attachments and forms of care, pleasure and memory facilitated through those practices. Inspired by recent queer research on leather as a material and ‘mnemonic technology’, the article contributes to research on the use of animal products in the transmission of transgenerational human memory, going beyond food and the heteronormative framework of the family. It also adds new dimensions to the growing literature on veganism by asking readers to take seriously the ambivalence involved in giving up animal products where their use is saturated with memories of human community.

Most of the mothers were housewives where the others were working as cleaners and caregivers. Fathers were mostly working as a construction worker, driver, waiter, dyer etc. The results show that immigrant mothers had financial worries, they were not aware of how to raise their children, how to deal with them and their needs, they were living in the same region with the other immigrant families having a resemblance to them and their social environment consisted of the other immigrant families.</p><p> </p><p><strong>ÖZ</strong></p><p>Bu çalışma Kuzey Kıbrıs’ta Lefkoşa’nın Surlariçi Bölgesi’nde yaşayan 3. Grup Türkiye Cumhuriyeti kökenli 0-6 yaş çocuğu olan göçmen anneler ve çocuklarına yönelik bir durum tespit çalışması niteliğinde bir çalışmadır. Çalışma Lefkoşa Surlariçi bölgesinde yaşayan 30 göçmen anne ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma grubuna ulaşılırken Kartopu Örnekleme Yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Burada da ilk önce bir anne ile görüşme yapılmış, daha sonra görüşme yapılan annenin referansı yoluyla, ya da onu tanıyan diğer bir arkadaşının da çalışmaya katılmaya gönüllü olarak katılması yoluyla diğer annelere de ulaşılmıştır. Çalışma grubunda yer alan annelerin 16’sı Hatay’dan, 7’si Mardin’den, 3’ü Adana’dan, 3’ü Mersin’den, 1’, ise Urfa’dan göç ederek Kıbrıs’a yerleşmişlerdir. Araştırma sonucunda, ailelerin daha çok Hatay ve Mardin’den göç ettiği, büyük çoğunluğunun etnik olarak Arap kökenli, bir kısmının Kürt kökenli, çok azının ise Türk kökenli olduğu, aile içerisinde konuşulan dilin daha çok Türkçe olduğu, ailelerin çoğunun çok çocuklu aileler olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Annelerin çoğu ev hanımıdır, diğerleri temizlik işlerine gitmekte ya da çocuk bakıcılığı yapmaktadır. Babalar ise çoğunlukla inşaat işçisi, şoför, garson, boyacı vb. olarak çalışmaktadırlar. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda, göçmen annelerin maddi kaygılar yaşadıkları, çocuklarının yetiştirilmesi, onlara nasıl davranılması gerektiği ve ihtiyaçlarının neler olabileceği konusunda bilinçli olmadıkları, daha çok kendi durumlarına benzer özellikler gösteren diğer göçmen ailelerle aynı bölgede yaşadıkları, sosyal çevrelerinin yine diğer göçmen ailelerden oluştuğu sonucuna varılmıştır.</p>

O autor quer mostrar que toda sociedade humana é uma imagem da Trindade e a família o é de modo especial, uma vez que a trindade humana - pai, mãe e filho - foi criada, desde o início, como uma espécie de sacramento natural do Deus-Família. As virtudes dos casados (abertura à vida, mútuo respeito, serviço, comunicação etc.) fazem da família uma imagem da Santíssima Trindade. Segundo João Paulo II. não existe, neste mundo, nenhuma outra imagem mais perfeita para a família do que a de Deus - Unidade e Comunhão. Não há nenhuma outra realidade humana que cor-responda melhor a este mistério divino do que a família. Chegou, pois, a hora de a família reconhecer sua identidade e assumira liderança na renovação da sociedade. Além disso, ao se adotar a visão da família como sa¬cramento da Santíssima Trindade, cria-se também uma nova visão da mulher.Abstract: The author wants to show that every type of human community is an image ofthe Trinity, and that the human family is in a very special way, because the human trinity offather, mother and child was created from the beginning as a kind of Natural Sacrament of God-Family. The virtues of married couples (being open to life, mutual respect and serying one another, communication etc.) make the family an image of the Trinity. According to John Paul II, in this world there is tio other image for the family more perfect than that which is God as Unity and Communion. There is no other human reality which corresponds better to this divine mystery than the family. It is now time for the family to recognize its identity and assume its leadership in renewing society. Beside this, tofollow this vision ofthe family as sacrament ofthe Trinity will create a new way of looking at and understanding women.

In a world increasingly both fragmented and globalized, there is a need for a normative framework of values linking individual and group concerns by means of a conception of collective human rights. Felice argues that individual human rights, which have proven to be of enormous value in the twentieth century, must be extended to communities ranging from the family unit to the entire human community.

Pension Benefits

1.1 The principal motivation for this paper is our involvement in the valuation of pension benefits under the Family Law (Scotland) Act 1985 and the review being undertaken by the Pensions Management Institute Working Group on pensions and divorce. As a consequence of the introduction of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 1985, there is an explicit provision that pension benefits should be included as part of the matrimonial property in a divorce settlement. It will be clear from this paper that we have considerable doubts as to whether the present law is satisfactory; nevertheless it is difficult to argue that such an important item as pension rights should be disregarded in divorce. This however, is often the position in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
