Zelizer’s work may be read as an attack on the central Polanyian thesis: that the market system threatens social life by the
undue prominence it lends the economy in the organization of modern society. The recent publication of Viviana Zelizer’s The Purchase of Intimacy (2005a) is therefore an excellent opportunity to review the general trend of her work Zelizer 1979, 1985, 1994, and contrast her leading ideas to the central thesis that gives Polanyi’s work its particular flavor: the danger encapsulated
in the use of modern money and the functioning of the market system.
A draft of this essay was presented in March 2007 at a workshop held at the University of London, and a preliminary French
version has appeared in a special issue of the Revue du Mauss devoted to Polanyi’s thought (Vol. 29, June 2007). The present version is directed to Zelizer’s views on the relation between
market and society. I thank Franck Cochoy, Keith Hart, José Ossandon, and Viviana Zelizer for their helpful comments and advices.

This paper provides a multilayered analysis of how lesbian mothers and gay fathers construct their families in a social context
that has been described by Steven Seidman (2004) as “beyond the closet.” We stress how our participants’ family-building experiences are comparable to other non-biologically
related families, but distinct due to heterosexual dominance. Using in-depth qualitative interviews with 18 lesbian birth
mothers and 22 gay fathers, the authors discuss how participants navigate heterosexual dominance in institutions and in personal
interactions.

This study estimates the contributions of skill-biased technological change and international trade to the rise in the skill
premium during the 1980s and 90s using the Feenstra and Hanson (Q J Econ 114(3):907–940, 1999) two-stage methodology. Newly available data on high-technology capital provide separate measures of computer and software
investment. New estimates suggest that investment in software contributed to a substantial portion of the observed increase
in the skill premium while investment in computers lead to a reduction in the rate of skill premium growth. Contrary to the
findings of Feenstra and Hanson for the 1980s, neither software nor computers had a significant effect on wages during the
1980s. Foreign outsourcing does not appear to have significantly affected wages during the 1990s. The contribution to theory
is that software is more complementary to increases in worker productivity due to human skills. Computers, on the other hand,
reduced the growth of wage inequality by giving unskilled labor a more efficient set of tools with which to work.

Over the last 30 years, social theorists have increasingly emphasized the importance of space. However, in empirical research,
the dialectical relationship between social interaction and the physical environment is still a largely neglected issue. Using
the theory of structuration, I provide a concrete example of why and how space matters in the cultural analysis of an urban
social world. I argue that bike messengers—individuals who deliver time-sensitive materials in downtown cores of major cities—cannot
be understood outside an analysis of space. Specifically, I connect the cultural significance of messenger practices to the
emplacement of those practices inside the urban environment.

Decision-making by children 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Shelly Lundberg Jennifer L. Romich Kwok Ping Tsang 《Review of Economics of the Household》2009,7(1):1-30
In this paper, we examine the determinants of decision-making power by children and young adolescents. Moving beyond previous
economic models that treat children as goods consumed by adults, we develop a noncooperative model of parental control of
child behavior and child resistance. Using child reports of decision-making and psychological and cognitive measures from
the NLSY79 Child Supplement, we examine the determinants of shared and sole decision-making based on indices created from
seven domains of child activity. We find that the determinants of sole decision-making by the child and shared decision-making
with parents are quite distinct: sharing decisions appears to be a form of parental investment in child development rather
than a simple stage in the transfer of authority. In addition, we find that indicators of child capabilities and preferences
affect reports of decision-making authority in ways that suggest child demand for autonomy as well as parental discretion
in determining these outcomes.

Through observation of two programs in broiler rearing and silk production implemented by a Bangladesh nongovernmental organization
(NGO), this article explores what role an NGO can play as an intermediary in business development for the poor with focus
on the relations between the NGO and local elites. In theory, as market demand for a product or service increases, the business
attracts more interest from local elites, to whom all the benefits tend to go in the end. However, the two cases suggest feasible
ways for the poor with intermediary to open up a business opportunity in the elite-controlled rural economy: market differentiation
and the use of a stagnant industry. As a result, new NGO–elite relations emerge. Considering the limited life of such relations,
efforts should be concentrated on enabling the poor to make the most of the business opportunity in the short term under the
new NGO–elite relations.

China’s previous contract laws had many contradictions and failed to meet the needs of China’s developing market economy.
Although some problems still need to be dealt with, the unified contract law is more advanced, systematic and plays an important
role in fostering and encouraging transactions.

The economic, political and social transition processes of the last two decades, far from being in harmony, clearly have a
detrimental rather than an enriching influence on each other. These processes will never become harmonised just by themselves
in a natural fashion. The worst obstacle of a successful transformation is that the chief actors, such as the government,
the market and the representatives of the society. The Prince, the Merchant and the Citizen do not show the necessary commitment,
competence and determination to create a new, effective type of partnership. This is a challenge which urgently demands answers
on all levels of governance, economic and social life. This must be done in the frames of local communities, and on the regional,
the European and the global levels. Nearly twenty years after the political turnabout, Hungary now needs a new social contract
and must lay down the ethical, political, institutional and intellectual foundations for its twenty-first century democracy.

The impact of the reproductive technologies upon infertile couples who require them is both ubiquitous and profound. There
is a confluence of issues that co-exist for women and men who use reproductive technologies which creates a complex matrix
for both the analytically informed social work clinician and those seeking infertility treatment. The unique merger of life
stage issues, identity issues, cultural pressures, and responses to the physical and emotional demands of the necessary technologies,
serves to amplify the intensity of encounters in this analytic triad. Consideration of attachment theory while utilizing intersubjective
systems theory provides a system of treatment which offers comfort and a place to mourn the multiple losses of repetitive
failures of attempts to conceive.

Evidence for the ingroup advantage hypothesis in recognizing emotions comes from studies using specific types of posed expressions.
A proposed source of this advantage has been culturally-specific ways of expressing emotions, known as cultural dialects (Elfenbein
et al. Emotion 7(1):131–146, 2007). But to date, no study has used spontaneously produced expressions as stimuli in testing
the hypothesis. We do so here. American and Japanese observers judged expressions produced by American and Japanese athletes
immediately at the completion of a medal match from the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The ingroup hypothesis was not supported,
suggesting that it occurs when posers mime an expression, but not when they spontaneously produce it in real life.

This paper examines empirical links between sexual orientation and self-reported lying using data collected in several waves
of Georgia Institute of Technology’s World Wide Web Users Survey. The data include questions about sexual orientation, lying
in cyberspace, and a broad range of demographic information. According to the theoretical framework of Gneezy (Am Econ Rev
95: 384–395, 2005) on the economics of deception, individuals conceal or falsify information when the expected benefit of lying exceeds its
costs in terms of psychic disutility. If non-heterosexuals expect to benefit more by falsifying information, then this theory
predicts higher rates of lying among non-heterosexuals. The data show that gays and lesbians do indeed report lying more often
than heterosexuals, both unconditionally in bivariate correlations and after controlling for demographic and geographic differences.
These empirical results are consistent with the conclusion that non-heterosexuals expect higher benefits from concealing personal
information because of anti-homosexual discrimination.

Historic changes within the American Psychoanalytic Association (APsaA) in the 1980s eventually allowed social workers and
other non-medical professionals to train in clinical psychoanalysis as regular “candidates”. The steps to work through organizational
resistance to this change are traced. The present level of activity of those analysts who began as social workers is discussed,
with numeric data showing expansion of involvement in training and organizational life. Analysts with a background in social
work are beginning to make significant positive contributions to APsaA. There is a more rapid pace of inclusion of analysts
from social work in the governance side of APsaA than the educational. The ultimate impact on the organization is difficult
to anticipate.

The purpose of this theoretical article is to contribute to the analysis of knowledge and valuation in markets. In every market
actors must know how to value its products. The analytical point of departure is the distinction between two ideal types of
markets that are mutually exclusive, status and standard. In a status market, valuation is a function of the status rank orders
or identities of the actors on both sides of the market, which is more entrenched than the value of what is traded in the
market. In a market characterized by a standard, the situation is reversed; the scale of value is more entrenched than the
rankings of actors in the market. In a status market actors need to know about the other actors involved as there is no scale
of value for evaluating the items traded in the market independently of its buyers and sellers. In a standard market it is
more important to know how to meet the standard in relation to which all items traded are valued. The article includes empirical
examples and four testable hypotheses.

This article explores gender perspective in clinical work with couples whose romantic choices fall across cultural, racial
and religious lines. A conceptual framework is presented to track the dimensions of differences between the two partners in
intercultural couples (collective vs. individualistic). The article illustrates how emotional expressiveness, continuum of
autonomy, gender differentiation, and sexuality play out in intimate cross-cultural relationships. It also shows how the embedded,
culturally assigned gender beliefs and roles are addressed in treatment. Examples from the author’s clinical work are presented
throughout the article.

This paper presents barriers to help-seeking data as reported by users of a national gambling helpline (help-seekers, HS,
N = 125) as well as data pertaining to perceived barriers to seeking help as reported by gamblers recruited from the general
population (non-help-seekers, NHS,
N = 104). All data were collected via a structured, multi-modal survey. When asked to identify actual or perceived barriers
to seeking help, responses indicative of pride (78% of HS participants, 84% of NHS participants), shame (73% of HS participants,
84% of NHS participants) or denial (87% of NHS participants) were most frequently reported. These three factors were also
most often identified as the real or perceived primary barrier to help-seeking (collectively accounting for 55% of HS, and
60% of NHS, responses to this question) and were the only barriers to be identified by more than 10% of either HS and NHS
participants without prompting. It was of note, however, that participants in both groups identified multiple barriers to
help-seeking (mean of 6.7 and 12.2, respectively) and that, when presented with a list of 21 possible barrier items, NHS participants
endorsed 19 of the listed items significantly more often than their HS counterparts. The implications of these findings, with
respect to promoting greater or earlier help-seeking activity amongst problem gamblers, are discussed.

Several studies find a negative correlation between the ratio of males to females and measures of female labor supply in the
US. This negative correlation has been interpreted as empirical support for the hypothesis that marriage market conditions
influence intra-household allocation decisions. Given the similarity of cultures and of labor supply behavior of women in
Canada and the United States, and the fact that they both experienced baby-booms at roughly the same time, any explanation
for changes in female labor supply would be expected to hold for both countries. We test the prediction that marriage market
conditions have explanatory power for Canadian female labor force participation (LFP) rates over the period 1971–2001. We
find smaller marriage market effects for Canada than those found for the US but similar in magnitude to those found for the
US Midwest.

The countries of Central and Eastern Europe experienced a rapid increase of return to education with the advent of the transition.
We look at the dynamics of wage premiums in Croatia and estimate how much the return to education has changed between 1996
and 2004 on the basis of labor force survey data. We also extend the paper in order to address additional features of the
wage structure, such as non-linearities in the return to education associated with attainment of credentials. We find that
contrary to most transition countries, premiums for education in Croatia began to grow only after the mid 1990s. However,
by 2004, they reached the levels of premiums found in other transition countries and advanced market economies, thus creating
market incentives for investment in education. We also find that major part of this higher rate of return came through higher
return to credentials.

The spontaneous process of immigration of Diaspora Armenians to Armenia started in 1990s. The absence of a relevant policy
in the Diaspora and in the Republic of Armenia made the social cost of relocation for many immigrants rather high. New contacts
turned into a psychological, social and cultural ordeal for both the relocated and local residents. The group isolation within
parts of one unit as a problem has a tendency to grow. Research uses qualitative and quantitative methodologies to understand
the challenges of immigrants in the Armenian reality, to identify policy and ideology gaps to overcome those challenges. The
conclusions of the research can help policy-makers and interested/relevant organizations in Armenia and the Diaspora in the
development of policies to regulate the spontaneous and ineffective processes in and out of the country, and direct all Armenians
forces to country democratisation processes.

This commentary expands on Kellner’s article by discussing clinical practice with Asian and Euro-American couples. Differences
in Western and traditional Asian cultural expectations around intimacy and styles of emotional expression can often lead to
misunderstanding among couples. Therapy can also be a challenge for couples when they do not share the same first language.
A therapist who only speaks English can inadvertently create an alliance with the partner whose first language is English.
On the other hand, bilingual therapists who use both English and an Asian language in the session can face challenges differentiating
their roles as a therapist versus a translator. Case illustrations are presented to illustrate these challenges.

Do Reservation Wages Really Decline? Some International Evidence on the Determinants of Reservation Wages 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Using cross-country data, we investigate the determinants of reservation wages and their course over the jobless spell. Higher
unemployment benefits lead to higher reservation wages. Further, again consistent with the basic search model, repeated observations
on the same individual provide scant evidence of declining reservation wages.
