Eva Wassén Eriksson har kommit att intressera sig för Clotilde von Höpken (1850-1934) och upptäckt att hon i det tysta medverkat till ett bättre liv för många. Hon valde för egen del att leva ett annat liv än det som förväntades av en förmögen adlig kvinna. Clotilde ville ha familj men inte gifta sig och vara beroende av en man. Men med många fosterbarn fick hon den familj hon önskade sig. Därför är det extra intressant att Eva med den här boken beskriver hennes liv och extraordinära sociala gärning för en bredare publik. Eva vill även ge fosterbarnens efterlevande en möjlighet att ta del av livet hos Clotilde. Som släktforskare vill Eva också visa vilken skatt som finns i våra arkiv. Det har varit en strävan att i möjligaste mån ha illustrationer från den tid som boken spänner över. Det har varit möjligt tack vare privata kontakter, fosterbarnens efterlevande och offentliga arkiv. Boken beskriver ett liv i en tid som inte är så långt borta men som många inte alls känner till. Förutom om huvudpersonen Clotilde får vi bland annat veta mer om Bogesunds slott, Velamsund, Västergatan 3 i Göteborg, om fideikommiss, oäkta barn och fosterbarn.

This book confronts the problem of the legal uncertainty surrounding the definition and classification of ethnic cleansing, exploring whether the use of the term ethnic cleansing constitutes a valuable contribution to legal understanding and praxis. The premise underlying this book is that acts of ethnic cleansing are, first and foremost, a criminal issue and must therefore be precisely placed within the context of the international law order. In particular, it addresses the question of the specificity of the act and its relation to existing categories of international crime, exploring the relationship between ethnic cleansing and genocide, but also extending to war crimes and crimes against humanity. The book goes on to show how the current understanding of ethnic cleansing singularly fails to provide an efficient instrument for identification, and argues that the act, in having its own distinctive characteristics, conditions and exigencies, ought to be granted its own classification as a specific independent crime. Ethnic Cleansing: A Legal Qualification, will be of particular interest to students and scholars of International Law and Political Science.

Joining Society asks precise questions: To what are the young socialized? Which skills, modes of thinking or action are required from them and what are their developmental value? Socialization tends to be viewed within the confines of a particular geographical or cultural situation. The multi-national list of contributors brings an international perspective to the problem of socialization to work and to adult life, while at the same time emphasizing the common issues that face youth around the world. Some of the topics addressed are the rules and roles involved in socialization, attaining personal agency through collective activity, use of new technologies, and the role of intergenerational relationships. This book sheds new light on the processes through which society may hope to intervene in positive ways with today's youth.

For decades, research on children's literacy has been dominated by questions of how children learn to read. Especially among Anglophone scholars, cognitive and psycholinguistic research on reading has been the only approach to studying written language education. Echoing this, debates on methods of teaching children to read have long dominated the educational scene. This book presents an alternative view. In recent years, writing has emerged as a central aspect of becoming literate. Research in cognitive psychology has shown that writing is a highly complex activity involving a degree of planning unknown in everyday conversational uses of language. At the same time, developmental studies have revealed that when young children are asked to "write," they show a surprisingly sophisticated understanding of the representational constraints of alphabetic writing systems. They show this understanding long before they can read conventional writing on their own. The rich structure of meanings involved in the word text provided the glue that brought together a group of scholars from several disciplines in an international workshop held in Rome. Reflecting the state of the field at the time, the majority of the workshop participants were scholars working in languages other than English, especially the romance languages. Their work mirrors a linguistic and psychological research tradition that Anglophone scholars knew little of until recently. This volume provides English-language readers with updated versions of the papers presented at the meeting. The topics discussed at the workshop are represented in the chapters as follows: * the relationship between acquisition of language and familiarity with written texts; * the reciprocal "permeability" between spoken and written language; * the initial phases of text construction by children; and * the educational conditions that facilitate written language acquisition and writing practice.
