The volume includes an anthology of studies, laws, documents, investigations, and discourses concerning “social engineering” and the young student population, aiming to clarify multiple misunderstandings and myths concerning the Social Service Law, 1938, both from the respective historical period and from recent debates. To this purpose, authors employ a triple strategy of clarifying this piece of legislation: 1) an analysis of the Euro-Atlantic and national contexts of the interbellum period that frames the social service initiatives; 2) connecting the Law to the great public debates of the XIXth century, concerning the life of peasants in the context of village modernization; 3) integrating the experiences of cultural work in villages in the broader, comprehensive vision of the Sociological School of Bucharest, specifying them as a deepening of village modernization on four dimensions: culture of work, of health, of mind and of soul.

Autonomous vehicles are one of the most highly anticipated technological developments of our time, with potentially wide-ranging social implications. Where dominant popular discourses around autonomous vehicles have tended to espouse a crude form of technological determinism, social scientific engagements with autonomous vehicles have tended to focus on rather narrow utilitarian dimensions related to regulation, safety or efficiency. This article argues that what is therefore largely missing from current debates is a sensitivity to the broader social implications of autonomous vehicles. The article aims to remedy this absence. Through a speculative mode, it is shown how a mobilities approach provides an ideal conceptual lens through which the broader social impacts of autonomous vehicles might be identified and evaluated. The argument is organized across four dimensions: transformations to experiences, inequalities, labour and systems. The article develops an agenda for critical sociological work on automated vehicles; and it calls on sociologists to contribute much-needed critical voices to the institutional and public debates on the development of autonomous vehicles.

Penelitian ini berawal dari fenomena masih sering ditemuinya orang dengan gangguan jiwa terlantar yang berkeliaran di Kota Sukabumi. Penanganan orang dengan gangguan jiwa terlantar tidak ditangani oleh satu lembaga, oleh karena itu perlu adanya koordinasi antara Dinas Sosial, Dinas Kesehatan dan Satuan Polisi Pamong Praja. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis koordinasi antar lembaga dalam penanganan orang dengan gangguan jiwa terlantar di Kota Sukabumi dengan menggunakan teori koordinasi yang dikemukakan oleh Hasibuan yang terdiri dari empat dimensi, yaitu kesatuan tindakan, komunikasi, pembagian kerja, dan disiplin. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metede penelitian kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa koordinasi dalam penanganan orang dengan gangguan jiwa di Kota Sukabumi masih belum maksimal karena belum adanya kesatuan tindakan antar lembaga, komunikasi yang dilakukan antar lembaga tidak intensif, dan pembagian kerja yang belum optimal. Oleh karena itu harus adanya kesatuan tindakan antar lembaga, rapat koordinasi dilaksanakan secara rutin, adanya pedoman dalam penanganan yang disepakati bersama, serta penyediaan anggaran yang cukup.   Abstract This study originated from the phenomenon that people with deranged mental disorders who roam the city of Sukabumi are still frequently encountered. The handling of people with mental disorders who are displaced is not handled by one institution, therefore there is a need for coordination between the Social Service, the Health Service and the Civil Service Police Unit. This study aims to analyze coordination between institutions in the handling of people with mental disorders who are displaced in Sukabumi City by using the coordination theory proposed by Hasibuan which consists of four dimensions, namely unity of action, communication, division of work, and discipline. The method used in this research is qualitative research metede. The results found that coordination in handling people with mental disorders in the City of Sukabumi was still not optimal because there was no unity of action between institutions, communication between agencies was not intensive, and the division of labor was not optimal. Therefore there must be unity of action between institutions, coordinating meetings are held routinely, there are guidelines in handling mutually agreed upon, as well as providing sufficient budget.

Taking Action

White liberal race fiction has been an enduringly popular genre in American literary history. It includes widely read and taught works such as Huckleberry Finn and To Kill a Mockingbird along with period bestsellers now sometimes forgotten. Hollywood regularly adapted them into blockbusters, reinforcing their cultural influence. These novels and films protest slavery, confront stereotypes, dramatize social and legal injustices, engage the political controversies of their time, and try to move readers emotionally toward taking action. The literary forms and arguments of these books derive from the cultural work they intend to do in educating the minds and hearts, and propelling the actions, of those who think they are white—indeed, in making the social construction of that whiteness readable and thus more susceptible of reform. The white writers of these fictions struggle with their own place in systems of oppression and privilege while asking their readers to do the same. The predominance of women among this tradition’s authors leads to exploring how their critiques of gender and race norms often reinforced each other. Each chapter provides a case study combining biography, historical analysis, close reading, and literary theory to map the significance of this genre and its ongoing relevance. This tradition remains vital because every generation must relearn the lessons of antiracism and formulate effective cultural narratives for passing on the intellectual and emotional tools useful in fighting injustice.

Complex Settings

Social service settings offer numerous complexities in their staffing, consumers, and payer mix that require careful consideration in designing dissemination and implementation efforts. However, social services’ unique access to vulnerable populations with health problems may prove vital in efforts to improve the health status of many of our citizens and reduce health disparities. While a number of well-developed, blended dissemination and implementation models are being used in social service settings, they all require additional documentation, research, and field experience. Nonetheless, the lessons learned in the social services may help organizations in other sectors better implement health interventions with complex consumers in complex settings.

Development Goals

Balancing the social, economic and environmental priorities for public health is at the core of the United Nations (UN) approaches to sustainable development, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The four dimensions of sustainable diets are often presented as health, society, economics, and the environment. Although sustainable diet research has focused on health and the environment, the social and economic dimensions of sustainable diets and food systems should not be forgotten. Some research priorities and sociocultural indicators for sustainable healthy diets and food systems are outlined in this report. The present goal is to improve integration of the social dimension into research on food and nutrition security.
