Portador de um dos mais prestigiosos títulos e nomes, herdeiro de uma grande família da nobreza militar que “serviu a França por 500 anos”, ex-aluno da Ecole Polytechnique, diretor-presidente de uma das filiais da Schneider, o décimo segundo duque de Brissac, que se casou com May Schneider, uma descendente de uma das maiores famílias de industriais, é a realização do aristocrata perfeito, possuindo um notável conjunto de qualidades e características distintivas. O capital social herdado de sua família e que ele jamais deixou de manter e valorizar, ao mesmo tempo em que sabia, ocasionalmente, reconvertê-lo, está, sem dúvida, na raiz desta concentração de riquezas. Centro de uma rede de relações com uma extensão e densidade excepcionais, o duque de Brissac adquiriu desde a infância, nos estabelecimentos de ensino secundáriode “boa companhia” que frequentou, a arte e o gosto de cultivar as relações herdadas, e de as ampliar. A análise das memórias do duque de Brissac e de várias obras escritas por outros membros de sua família permitiu reconstruir a história desse empreendimento de acumulação e gestão de capital social.Palavras-chave: Capital social.

Brissac.A GREAT FAMILYThe bearer of one of the most prestigious titles and names, the heir to a great family of the military nobility in which “they have servedFrance for 500 years”, a former pupil of the Ecole Polytechnique, managing-director of one of the sister-companies of the SchneiderCorporation, the Twelfth Duke of Brissac, who married May Schneider, a descendant of one of the greatest ironmasters families, is therealisation of the perfect aristocrat, possessing a remarkable aggregate of qualities and distinctive features. The social assets handed down to him by his family which he has constantly built up, maintained and exploited while knowing, whenever the occasion demanded, how to reconvert it, are, without doubt at the root of this concentration of riches. At the focal point of an exceptionally widespread and dense network of relations, the Duke of Brissac has acquired, from infancy and later in “well-bred” High Schools, a taste for cultivating and extending the kinship networks devolved on him through inheritance. The analysis of the memoirs of the Duke of Brissac and of several works written by other members of his family has enabled the author to trace the history of this pursuit of the accumulation and management of social assets.Keywords: Social capital.

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la construcción, sustentabilidad y usos del capital social comunitario en un movimiento social argentino que plantea la horizontalidad y la autonomía como valores fundamentales de organización social. A través del análisis de la dinámica de tres tipos de capital social —unión, puente, y nexo—, se observa que el movimiento en cuestión consigue crear rápidamente capital social comunitario y una identidad común diferenciadora. Sin embargo, el capital social rápidamente construido no logra sustentarse en el tiempo, debido a la incapacidad de sus integrantes en generar mecanismos descentralizados y eficientes de monitoreo mutuo, responsabilidad compartida y penalización moral que protejan el bien común y refuercen la identidad comunitaria a través de redes sociales densas.   ABSTRACTThe objective of this article is to analyze the construction, sustainability and uses of community social capital in a social movement in Argentina that identifies horizontality and autonomy as fundamental values of social organization. By analyzing the dynamics of three types of social capital —bonding, bridging and linking— we can observe that the movement studied here is able to rapidly create community social capital and  differentiating common identity. Nevertheless, the social capital rapidly constructed is not sustained over time, because the movement’s members are unable to generate decentralized, efficient mechanisms for mutual monitoring, shared responsibility and moral penalization that will protect the common good and strengthen community identity through dense social networks.

Pride of place in this review goes undoubtedly to Sally Humphreys’ monumental study of kinship in ancient Athens. A work in progress for four decades, it is finally published in two volumes of almost 1,500 pages. The book's coverage is vast: the first volume focuses on interactions among kinsfolk (legal, social, economic, and ritual), while the second volume explores the various Athenian corporate groups which employed kinship as their organizing principle (phratries, gene, tribes, and trittyes) and provides an exhaustive discussion of kinship networks attested across all Athenian demes. As a result of its size and encyclopaedic coverage, I suspect that most readers will approach this work in a piecemeal fashion, looking for a particular phenomenon or searching for a particular kinship network; the lack of a detailed introduction or conclusions – features that would have been essential in a work of this size and ambition – does not help in this respect. But this work needs to be assessed as a whole, for three main reasons. The first is that households were the main organizing units of Athenian society, while most Athenian groups were organized on a kinship principle. Their roles were crucial, and they need to complement the social models of Athenian society we employ, alongside class and status. The second reason is that Humphreys makes a very good job of exploring the various contradictory tendencies at work in how Athenian kinship operated: the interests of male heads; of wives, children, and relatives; of wider kinship networks; and of the political community. The third is the combination of literary, epigraphic, and material evidence of Athenian kinship, which reveals in often impressive ways the contradictions and gaps of our various sources: not only will this work be essential reading for those working on Athenian oratory, archaeology, or economy, but its accumulated detail offers the basis for writing a novel history of Athenian society. Of course, a work gestated for forty years will also show the unavoidable flaws of its piecemeal construction; but these are largely of secondary importance, compared to the value of the end product.

Abstract Background In this study, the association between the social determinants of health (SDH) as well as other health risk factors and outcomes will be evaluated at different socioeconomic layers. Methods/design This is a prospective cohort study that was launched in January 2018 on Tehran University of Medical Sciences’ employees. The initial enrolment phase will continue up to March 2021, or until a sample size of 5500 is reached. In addition to annual phone-calls, the participants will be followed thrice at 5-year intervals. Data are collected through blood and urine samples, complete physical examination, anthropometric evaluation, and the completion of questionnaires related to SDH, such as socioeconomic status and social capital, history of diseases, lifestyle (including, nutrition, physical activity, cigarette and hookah smoking), occupational exposures (including psychosocial factors at work and work-family conflicts), and different aspects of physical, mental and occupational health as health outcomes. The association between independent variables and health (objective or subjective) are examined using multiple models and by controlling the confounding effects. Moreover, the trend in lifestyle changes and its impact on health are evaluated. Discussion Our study will explore the key social determinants as well as other factors including socioeconomic status and social capital, history of diseases, lifestyle and occupational exposures that affect health. This will provide social and occupational health decision-makers and stakeholders with new and valuable evidence in an era in which we are witnessing huge changes in lifestyle.

<p>Transnational oil and gas pipelines have a troublesome history of disagreements and disputes that in many cases have led to a cessation of supply. While geopolitics and weak international institutions are often pointed to as explanations, considering pipelines as social as well as material constructs can also shed light on why disputes emerge. This paper will consider the social construction of the Myanmar-China pipelines. In China, the pipelines are seen as the solution to China’s ‘Malacca dilemma’. In Myanmar, the changing political situation has allowed new actors to contest the military junta’s narrative of economic development and the pipelines have become a lightning rod for national conversations about local resource ownership, social and environmental norms and Chinese exploitation of Myanmar’s energy resources.</p>

Mansions and individual residential houses of the early XX century form the basis of the historical center of Novocherkassk. The building of the city harmoniously combines features of traditional Cossack housing and adherence to the capital's architectural fashion, imitation of St. Petersburg. The history of the formation of the city, the social structure of the population, economy and culture determined the features of its architecture. In preparing the article, the methods of field and historical archival research, comparative analysis of works and their details, the method of analogies are used. A comprehensive analysis of typical objects – the mansion of G.M. Salnikov, the Shamarins' mansion, the house of the ataman A.V. Samsonov, residential buildings of the military master V.A. Ratchenkov and the сossack I.A. Suslova. The space-planning, compositional, architectural and artistic features of Novocherkassk mansions and residential buildings in the 1900–1910 s are identified. The authors present the patterns of location of two types of housing in the structure of the city. The tendencies of the Art Nouveau style in the mansions are revealed. A comparative analysis of the functional planning organization and artistic-figurative solution of the Cossack kuren and the city dwelling house is carried out. The study shows the influence of two trends on the residential architecture of Novocherkassk in 1900–1910 – the capital's professional design practice and the local folk tradition.

Resumo: O objetivo com este artigo foi discutir as influências do capital social na constituição do campo organizacional do circo contemporâneo no Canadá. Para tanto, considera-se capital social como um conjunto de normas, redes e organizações por meio das quais os indivíduos obtêm acesso a poder e recursos para a tomada de decisão e formulação de políticas. Entende-se que a importância deste trabalho se encontra na relevância do estudo de organizações circenses, pela articulação entre as práticas culturais e econômicas que ocorrem em seu processo organizativo, especialmente no contexto canadense que se configura como referência mundial do campo do circo contemporâneo e ainda pouco estudado na área de Administração, especialmente no contexto canadense que se configura como referência mundial do campo do circo contemporâneo e ainda pouco estudado na área de Administração. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida na Cidade de Montréal, província de Québec, Canadá, em 2013. Foram entrevistados gestores das três organizações que atuam na regulamentação e disseminação das artes no circo canadense, e de oito das maiores companhias circenses contemporâneas. Os resultados indicam que trabalhar em grandes companhias circenses é um dos meios de constituir o capital social, possibilitando a formação, acesso a redes de profissionais e possíveis parceiros de trabalho. O capital social possibilita a articulação dos artistas em organizações para produzir vias alternativas de acesso a recursos financeiros e a participação em editais públicos de fomento. Uma das contribuições do estudo está nas evidências empíricas, quando da incorporação das práticas de gestão às práticas artísticas circenses.Palavras-chave: Capital social. Campo organizacional.

Therefore, we consider social capital as a set of rules, networks and organizations through which individuals gain access to power and resources for decision-making and policy formulation. We understand that the importance of this work in the relevance of the study of circus organizations, by the articulation between cultural and economic practices that occur in their organizational process, especially in the Canadian context that is configured as a world reference of the field of contemporary circus and still little studied in the area of Administration. The research was conducted in the City of Montréal, province of Québec, Canada, in 2013. We interviewed managers of the three organizations operating in regulation and dissemination of the arts in Canadian circus, and of eight major contemporary circus companies. The results indicate that work on major circus companies is one way to establish the capital, enabling training, access to professional network of the area and potential working partners. The social capital enables the articulation of artists in organizations to produce alternative ways of access to financial resources and participation in public tenders for development. One of the contributions of the study is in the empirical evidences, when incorporating the practices of management to the artistic practices circenses.Keywords: Social capital. Organizational field.

В результате процессов, сопровождавших Великое переселение народов, аланы, попав в Западную Европу, были ассимилированы, оставив во Франции, Северной Италии, Испании, Англии несколько сотен топонимов, связанных с ними. Следы пребывания алан на Западе впервые были обобщены В.А. Кузнецовым и В.К. Пудовиным. Появление труда американского ученого Б. Бахраха «Аланы на Западе» сняли скептицизм по отношению к роли алан в истории народов Западной Европы. О роли алан в исторических событиях Западной Европы раннего и зрелого Средневековья было отчетливо заявлено в трудах В.Б. Ковалевской, Франко Кардини, Говарда Рида, Скотта Литлтона, Линды Малкор. Особенно замечательна объемная работа Агусти Алемани «Аланы в древних и средневековых письменных источниках». У алан было заимствовано устройство конного войска, а вместе с этим, вероятно, и экипировка всадника, важной деталью которой был воинский пояс. Пряжка со щитком такого пояса служила у алан маркером статуса: в зависимости от того, из какого материала она была изготовлена (золото, серебро, бронза), она указывала на место в социальной иерархии. Трехлепестковый орнамент в результате модификаций вполне мог стать основой или прообразом особого знака-символа – так называемой «королевской лилии». Схему трансформации трехлепесткового узора в лилию можно проиллюстрировать рисунками пряжек. Надо полагать, что аланы оставили свой след не только в топонимике, организации конного войска, но и в орнаментике, фольклоре, антропонимике и других проявлениях культуры, которые необходимо тщательно исследовать. As a result of the processes that accompanied the Great Migration of Nations, the Alans, having fallen into Western Europe, were assimilated, leaving several hundred place names associated with them in France, Northern Italy, Spain, and England. The traces of the Alans' stay in the West were first generalized by V.A. Kuznetsov and V.K. Pudovin. The appearance of the work of the American scientist B.S. Bachrach "Alans in the West" removed skepticism regarding the role of the Alans in the history of the peoples of Western Europe. The role of the Alans in the historical events of Western Europe of the early and mature Middle Ages was clearly stated in the works of V.B. Kovalevskaya, Franco Cardini, Howard Reed, Scott Littleton, Linda Malkor. Particularly remarkable is the voluminous work of Agusti Alemany "Alans in ancient and medieval written sources." The Alans borrowed the device of the horse army, and with it, probably, the equipment of the horseman, an important detail of which was the military belt. The buckle with the shield of such a belt served as a status marker for the Alans: depending on what material it was made of (gold, silver, and bronze) it indicated a place in the social hierarchy. As a result of modifications, the three-petal ornament could very well become the basis or prototype of a special sign-symbol – the so-called “royal lily”. The transformation pattern of a three-petal pattern into a lily can be illustrated with buckle patterns. It must be assumed that the Alans left their mark not only in toponymy, organization of the cavalry army, but also in ornamentation, folklore, anthroponymy and other cultural manifestations, which must be carefully studied.
