The housewife is central to understanding women's position in capitalist societies. Marxists expected that the expropriation of production from the household would radically diminish its social importance. In the face of the household's continuing importance, Marxists have tried to understand it by applying concepts developed in the study of production." Yet obviously, the household is not like a factory, nor are housewives organized in the same way as wage laborers. As Eli Zaretsky has written, the housewife and the proletarian are the characteristic adults of advanced capitalist societies." Moreover, households and corporations are its characteristic economic organizations. Just as the socialization of production has not abolished the housewife, so accumulation has not abolished the economic functions of the household. Harry Braverman has demonstrated how the accumulation process creates new occupational structures, and he has documented the expansion of capital's activity to new sectors. We will argue that these developments also change the social relations of consumption, an economic function which continues to be structured through the household and performed by women as housewives.<p class="mrlink"><p class="mrpurchaselink"><a href="http://monthlyreview.org/index/volume-28-number-3" title="Vol. 28, No. 3: July-August 1976" target="_self">Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the <em>Monthly Review</em> website.</a></p>

In this article are analysed three functions of hell in the Hindu traditions, a narrative, a social and an economic. Because of the strong images the narratives of hell contain, they are excellent means to catch the attention of the audience. The social function of hell is to protect the social order, the security of the people and especially to protect the privileges of those on top of the hierarchy. Since gifts to the priests are matched with specific punishments in hell that they release from, one economic function of hell seems to be as a source of income for the priests. However, it is argued that even though hell is both a textual and ritual reality in the Hindu traditions, its significance should not be exaggerated. Death is not the end of life, but the end of one rebirth, and release, moksa , is not about escaping a destiny in hell, but to gain freedom from the rebirth realms.

Pandemi Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19) memiliki dampak yang signifikan ke perubahan perilaku masyarakat. Dampak tersebut memunculkan permasalahan berupa ketidakmampuan masyarakat dalam mengelola rasa curiga, takut, sikap over-protektif. Bila hal itu tidak diselesaikan dengan baik, maka dapat merusak hubungan sosial antar individu. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif-analitis, dengan menggunakan teori psikodinamika.

Peranan pekerja sosial, yakni: pertama, berperan dalam meningkatkan fungsi sosial individu-individu. Hal itu dilakukan pekerja sosial dengan memberikan pertolongan agar individu mampu memahami konflik (kepanikan/keresahan) pikiran-pikiran dan perasaannya. Kedua, pendampingan sosial kepada masyarakat. Hal itu dilakukan pekerja sosial dengan mengedukasi dan membantu mensosialisasikan kegiatan yang bertujuan untuk melakukan pencegahan atau penurunan penyebaran Covid-19.[The Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19) pandemic has a significant impact on changing people's behavior.

As festas populares amazônicas remontam os tempos do subjugo colonial na região, mas que ainda hoje se mantém, embora ressignificada. Concebem-se as festas como constituídas das relações sociais da comunidade, as quais Simmel (1983) denomina de sociabilidades. Este ensaio pretende identificar traços de colonialidade nos cantos-enredos das “tribos” Muirapinima e Munduruku, de Juruti e dos Bois Garantido e Caprichoso, de Parintins, no ano de 2019. De abordagem qualitativa e de objetivo exploratório, a pesquisa tem por base o audiovisual, portanto, de delineamento documental. Propõe-se, portanto, um olhar descolonial, a partir da experiência da colonialidade, observadas no cotidiano dessas populações nas festas na pós-modernidade.    PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Festas populares amazônicas; Colonialidade; Sociabilidade; Pós-modernidade.         ABSTRACT The Amazonian popular festivals date back to the times of colonial subjugation in the region, but still today they remain resignified. The festivals are conceived as constituted of the social relations of the community, which Simmel (1983) calls sociability. This essay aims to identify traces of coloniality in the plot-corners of the Muirapinima and Munduruku “tribes” of Juruti and Parintins' Bois Garantido and Caprichoso in 2019. Based on a qualitative and exploratory approach, the research is based on audiovisual, therefore, of documentary delineation. For that reason, we propose a decolonial look, based on the experience of coloniality, observed in the daily life of these populations in the feasts in postmodernity.  KEYWORDS: Amazon popular festivals; Coloniality; Sociability; Postmodernity.     RESUMEN Las fiestas populares amazónicas se remontan a los tiempos de la subyugación colonial en la región, pero aún hoy, aunque re-significados.

AbstractSocial animals self-organise to create groups to increase protection against predators and productivity. One-to-one interactions are the building blocks of these emergent social structures and may correspond to friendship, grooming, communication, among other social relations. These structures should be robust to failures and provide efficient communication to compensate the costs of forming and maintaining the social contacts but the specific purpose of each social interaction regulates the evolution of the respective social networks. We collate 611 animal social networks and show that the number of social contacts E scales with group size N as a super-linear power-law $$E=CN^\beta$$ E = C N β for various species of animals, including humans, other mammals and non-mammals. We identify that the power-law exponent $$\beta$$ β varies according to the social function of the interactions as $$\beta = 1+a/4$$ β = 1 + a / 4 , with $$a \approx {1,2,3,4}$$ a ≈ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 . By fitting a multi-layer model to our data, we observe that the cost to cross social groups also varies according to social function. Relatively low costs are observed for physical contact, grooming and group membership which lead to small groups with high and constant social clustering. Offline friendship has similar patterns while online friendship shows weak social structures. The intermediate case of spatial proximity (with $$\beta =1.5$$ β = 1.5 and clustering dependency on network size quantitatively similar to friendship) suggests that proximity interactions may be as relevant for the spread of infectious diseases as for social processes like friendship.

AbstractThis article is about ideas and practices concerning the production, distribution, preparation and consumption of food among the Muslim Argobba of Ethiopia. Food among the Muslim Argobba of Ethiopia is an essential idiom, both for drawing a hierarchy of in-group/out-group distinctions and for expressing relationships within groups. The in-group/out-group relations are typically expressed in terms of what foods are consumed by the Muslim Argobba and their non-Muslim Amhara neighbours, by the Muslim Argobba and their Muslim Oromo and Adal neighbours and indeed by some wealthy trader Argobba families and poor Argobba peasant households. Food preparation and distribution, on the other hand, express relations internal to the group, either in terms of gender within the household, as in who serves what to whom, where and in what quantities, or in informal exchanges, as in establishing social links among men and women. Nowadays fewer and fewer Argobba are producing the food they consume, and many are drawn away from their rural homelands either as merchants or as wage labourers. The article examines how Argobba consumers have become accustomed to foreign foods and new modes of preparation and distribution and how such changes have also altered the ways in which food has expressed social relations in terms of class, ethnic and gender identity. It investigates the relative importance of the social and symbolic function of Muslim meals, and discusses the material life of cooking and cuisine in changing socio-economic environments.

Interpretative Framework

This article is an attempt at a fairly detailed analysis of the TV series Being Forty in its first version of the 1970s. The text proposes an interpretation of the film from the perspective of Pierre Bourdieu’s theory and in particular reconstructs the social sphere of the film’s protagonists, which consists of the intelligentsia elite, the nomenklatura, the lower intelligentsia, and medium-level technical personnel. In the picture produced by the filmmakers, the role of the intelligentsia, especially its multi-generational old elite, is dominant. This vision does not fully correspond with the real place of the intelligentsia in Poland during the Gierek era. The authors of the article thus interpret the film as the scriptwriters’ appreciation of the intelligentsia, both in respect to its lower technical staff and to the part of the nomenklatura that was less rich in cultural capital. The interpretative framework proposed in the text seems useful for analyzing other works of art in order to reconstruct the social relations of the times in which they were created.

In the 70 years of the founding of New China, the research on the social function of historiography is not only characterized by stage development, but also has continuity and inheritance.In the 17 years after the founding of New China, historians attached importance to the study of the political function of historiography because of its special background of the times; in the 1980s, in order to adapt to socialist modernization, historians attached importance to the study of the educational function of historiography patriotism and the reference function of serving economic construction; in the 1990s, the study of the social function of historiography attached importance to the unity of the academic function of historiography and the social function of historiography; in the 21 century, with the development of the media, under the new era conditions, emphasis was placed on the study and discussion of the social function of historiography in accordance with the characteristics of the times, more comprehensive and in-depth. In general, the theoretical and methodological construction of the social function of historiography still needs to strengthen the interaction between historiography and reality, and the construction of theory and methodology still needs to be strengthened.
