This article is intended to explicate how to assist the millennial generation of Ono Niha not to be uprooted from the Nias identity amid globalization and encourage them to participate in preserving Niasan culture. Through the social-historical analysis, this article appeals to the millennial generation not to be alienated from their own culture but participate in cultural conservation. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct a dialogue with millennials by presenting their origins, strengthening the family as a cultural home. Through formal education, the young generation is educated to recognize their cultural values and local wisdom as cultural heritage. Empowering them as subjects and objects of culture is one of the practices to understand local wisdom in the context of Nias. Moreover, increasing institutional roles in preserving various cultural elements are part of the way to increase the interest of millennial to learn their existence, identity, and culture.

It is believed that the economic participation of women in Pakistan has been intensively affected by an enduring male-capitalist social system. Moreover, the history of gender discrimination has been linked with the medieval cultural values that uplifted and empowered men over women in every sphere of life, especially in the economic realm. A typical case is believed to be the Pashtun culture. This chapter investigated indigenous values of Pashtun culture where women are underrepresented in the economy. Women did not see themselves as underprivileged. Rather, they perceived themselves as a vital and prestigious part of the family and the wider Pashtun society. For educated women in Pashtun society, the values system is guided by social structure, which is accounted for by stability and unity in society. Cultural values are operationalized as the mechanism of division of labor. The findings redefine female empowerment and propose a new paradigm in the global context. The indigenous value system guides the social structure which leads to stability and unity in the society.

Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca) has become something that attracts many Sasak Muslim people’s ambitions and focuses, in Tanah Merah, Lombok.  It also became the model of the ideal individual identity with a positive image attached to it, and people call it “tuan haji”. Sociologically, the struggle of identity and self-image building efforts of the “tuan haji” gives us the understanding of the relationship and the distance between religious doctrine, as a model for the reality of Islam, with the implementation of the doctrine in social praxis, as a model of reality in Clifford Geertz’s term. Sociological analysis in this study uses two key theoretical concepts, namely the concept of social identity and image of Pierre Bourdieu, through the concept of habitus, as well as the concept of self-image by Jean Baudrillard. This study formulates a thesis which contains the assumption that in Islam, there are teachings that maintain the economic ethos of its adherents, among other obligations, one of these teachings contained in the Hajj. Tradition and culture have strengthened the religious ethos of the Sasak people in Tanah Merah to gain access to social capital that exist within social class. It shows that the collaboration between religious teachings and cultural values become an important force in the development of a religion, and how religion spread and influences every corner of the cultural elements that exist in the area where the community is located. Together with the tradition or locality, Religion has provided the basis for the Muslim Sasak in Tanah Merah to gain prestige and social status in the social world of people of Lombok in Tanah Merah, through pilgrimage.[Haji menjadi daya tarik yang menyedot cita-cita, ambisi, dan fokus hidup banyak individu muslim Sasak di Tanah Merah, Lombok. Haji menjadi model dari identitas individu yang ideal dengan citra positif yang melekat padanya, dan masyarakat menyebutnya sebagai tuan haji. Secara sosiologis, pergulatan identitas dan upaya membangun citra diri para tuan haji memberi pemahaman tentang relasi dan jarak antara doktrin agama sebagai model for reality dari ajaran Islam, dengan implementasi doktrin itu dalam praksis sosial sebagai model of reality dari Clifford Geertz. Analisis sosiologi dalam studi ini menggunakan dua konsep teoritis kunci, yaitu konsep tentang identitas sosial dan citra Pierre Bourdieu melalui konsep habitus, serta konsep citra diri menurut Jean Baudrillard. Dari studi ini dapat dirumuskan sebuah thesis yang berisi asumsi bahwa di dalam Islam terdapat ajaran yang menumbuhkan etos ekonomi para penganutnya, dan ajaran itu antara lain terkandung dalam kewajiban haji. Tradisi dan kultur keagamaan lokal telah menguatkan etos orang-orang Sasak di Tanah Merah untuk meraih akses terhadap modal sosial yang ada di dalam kelas sosial yang begitu dicita-citakan. Kenyataan itu menunjukkan bahwa kolaborasi antara ajaran agama dan nilai kultural menjadi kekuatan penting dalam perkembangan suatu agama, dan bagaimana agama itu kemudian berpengaruh menyebar ke setiap sudut unsur budaya yang ada di wilayah di mana komunitas itu berada. Agama bersama tradisi atau lokalitas telah memberi landasan bagi muslim Sasak di Tanah Merah untuk meraih gengsi dan status sosial dalam dunia sosial orang Lombok di Tanah Merah, melalui haji.]

 Yoruba people have a unique cultural heritage which engulfs every aspect of their lives; hence, guides them in their daily activities. It was borne in their heart, incise in their offspring, and pass from one generation to another. Unfortunately, this cultural heritage is almost lost today, as civilization has denigrated almost all these cherished cultural values in Yoruba communities. Undoubtedly, the family where the whole cultural decadence started from has great roles to play in restoring and preserving these cultural values. This is the thrust of this work. The essay is therefore approached from historical and ethical perspectives with phenomenological methodology to examine the cherished Yoruba cultural heritage. The findings of the work show that moral training through informal education; means of identity; communal responsibilities; ascribed roles; etc., are missing among the youths today. The paper adopts Mary Jo Hatch’s theory of cultural dynamics to examine the changes in Yoruba cultural heritage, the causes of decadence of this heritage; and the role of the family in enthroning Yoruba cultural heritage among the youths today. The essay recommends that family needs to rise for the restoration and 70 Awofeko Oyebanjo, and Shogunle preservation of these cultural heritages to combat the socio-cultural threat confronting the society.

<p><em>Children are our future and in their own time bear the responsibility to develop their own world.

The interest for the care and education of childhood have varied throughout the different historical time. Together with the transformations experienced within families, childhood has gradually and progressively attained meaning and relevance in the social environment. The new moral and spiritual function assumed by the family in the transition to modern times, and which went beyond its traditional function as transmitter of surname and heritage, implied the appearance of new emotions towards childhood at the same time their individuality intensified.At present, childhood acquires important centrality both in the private family space in which its protection, care, assistance and education prevail, rooted in new link of relationship (Burgess, 1972: 6-7), as well as in the public space, social, political, normative and economic. With these ideas, this research aims to historical analysis of the conception of childhood and its education, from ancient times to the present day, within the framework of the family and considering the repercussions that political, social, economic, demographic and cultural changes have had on childhood. La atención y el interés por el cuidado y la educación de la infancia han ido variando a lo largo de las diferentes etapas históricas. Ligada a las transformaciones experimentadas en el seno de las familias, de forma gradual y progresiva la infancia ha ido alcanzando significado y relevancia en el medio social. La nueva función moral y espiritual asumida por la familia en el tránsito hacia los tiempos modernos, y que rebasaba su tradicional función como transmisora de apellido y patrimonio, implicó la aparición de nuevas emociones hacia los menores al tiempo que se intensificaba su individualidad. En la actualidad la infancia adquiere notable centralidad tanto en el espacio privado familiar en el cual prima su protección, cuidado, asistencia y educación, enraizadas en nuevos vínculos de relacionabilidad (Burgess, 1972: 6-7), como también en el espacio público, social, político, normativo y económico. Partiendo de estas premisas, este artículo tiene por finalidad el estudio y análisis histórico de la concepción sobre la infancia y su educación, desde la antigüedad hasta nuestros días, dentro del marco de la familia y considerando las repercusiones que los cambios políticos, sociales, económicos, demográficos y culturales han tenido sobre la misma.

This paper argues that gender-related inequalities in education (and other areas) are most crucially understood as embedded in ideology about the family, and that that ideology is at least partially reproduced through the education system itself. The prevalent ideology about the family corresponds to the nature of the political economy and works to maintain and reproduce the social and sexual division of labour both within the family and in the society at large. This study describes one period of educational reform, 1900–1929 in Western Australia, and examines the ideology about the family that was perpetuated by the state through the formal education system at this time. However, social reproduction is seen as a complex process and subject to human mediation Consequently resistance to the state ideology is described, as are contradictions within the ideology itself. It is hoped that, by looking not only at reproduction but also at resistance and contradiction, the entire process will be seen as a more dynamic one.

In recent years, the sensitive issue of child labour has received world-wide attention and has become the focus of serious discussion in developing as well as developed countries. Any exact information on child labour is usually hard to come by as most of the children work in the unorganised informal sector, which is neither regulated by labour laws nor is monitored by any organisation. These working children are usually illiterate and start working at a very early age, are inexperienced and vulnerable, they usually work long hours in deplorable conditions, have no medical cover, go without sufficient and proper food and clothing, and get little rest and recreation. In this paper, an attempt has been made to analyse the major causes of female child labour in the city of Multan and certain measures and policies have been suggested which could help in bringing an end to this inhumane practice. Legislation against child labour is not an ideal solution in a country such as Pakistan. The child labour phenomena is not as simple as it appears and needs consideration in the context of the microeconomics of the family and population growth and macroeconomics of the social security structure of a country, unemployment, underemployment, opportunity cost and productivity of formal education.

<p>Fathering styles are highly influenced by the cultural background from which the father are raised. These styles will be observed by children and eventually become an imitated model for children in shaping their attitude and behaviour as well as their ethnic identity representing their cultural values. The objectives of this research are to know the difference of fathering styles between fathers in Minangkabau families and Batak families perceived from their personality types. The subjects of this research were 90 fathers in Medan, North Sumatera which consist of 45 fathers of Minangkabau ethnicity and 45 fathers of Batak ethnicity. The data of the study were collected by using two scales, which are personality types scale and fathering style scale. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was applied to analyze the data. The result of the analysis shows that personality types and ethnicity interact each other in affecting fathering styles (F: 5.872; p = 0.004 &lt; 0.05), so there is a difference of fathering styles between Minangkabau fathers and Batak fathers perceived from introvert and extrovert personality types.
