Die Enquetekommission als soziales System — oder was sie als Gruppe mit der Bürgergesellschaft zu tun hat

A board of inquiry ot the German Bundestag investigated the future of citizens in Germany. The possibilities and abilities of citizens to more democratic participation and responsibility in the community were part of the subject-matter. The author was member of the commission and describes his observations about how the commission has Organised and developed its work and its affiliation as a social group. He follows the idea that demanding political plans are also subject to daily patterns and reach the limits of what people are ready and able to do. Taking the work of the commission as an example the contribution gives an impression of how politics works and how it is made by people.

Was Achtsamkeitstrainings bewirken und wie sie in Organisationen wirksamer werden

In this article in the journal Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation (GIO) we discuss the impact of individual mindfulness trainings on organizations. Therefore, we combine research on high reliability organizations with aspects of the newer sociologist system theory. First we seek to define the construct of mindfulness and we distinguish between individual and collective mindfulness as two different qualities of mindfulness. Using an example from the banking sector we discuss the challenges developing mindfulness in organizations and what intervention strategies could work. We distinguish between the three system levels psyche, interaction and organization. Doing this it becomes clear that interventions have to consider the coupling of the three different levels: How interventions have to be designed to effect all three levels?     

We thought it was a secret! An approach to the management of emotional disorder in children with parents in marital conflict

The relationship of marital conflict with emotional disorder in children is well known. The disturbed behaviour at these children is a reaction to, and at times may be the only manifestation of, the parent's conflict. The author has developed an interview technique, based on drawing a dream, which enables children to effectively communicate their understanding of the stressful events in their lives that contribute to their emotional disorder. These drawings and the child's perceptions of their parents' conflict are then discussed with the parents. This often sharply focuses the problem for the parents and may facilitate a resolution of the marital conflict, thereby allowing a more appropriate realignment of family relationships, with a consequent improvement of the child's emotional disorder.

Les gagnants et les perdants de l'emploi informel en Indonésie

Dans la plupart des études, les travailleurs de l’économie informelle sont présentés comme un tout homogène. Les auteurs considèrent pourtant qu'il peut y avoir parmi eux des gagnants et des perdants. En utilisant des régressions quantiles sur distribution non conditionnelle et des données issues d'une enquête auprès des ménages indonésiens (IFLS), ils estiment l’écart de rémunération entre travailleurs formels et travailleurs informels à différents points de la répartition des gains. Ils montrent que la pénalité de revenu aux dépens des travailleurs informels, manifeste et sensible pour certains d'entre eux, n'est pas systématique, confirmant ainsi la thèse de Fields (1990 et 2005) sur l'emploi informel hétérogène.
