Michael Pollak : eine soziologische Biographie
No full textDer folgende Text befasst sich mit der wissenschaftlichen Karriere und der Person Michael Pollaks. Es ist der Lebenslauf Pollaks, welcher in Episoden und Schwerpunkten dargestellt wird und es zum Ziel hat, einen Überblick zu erhalten, welcher in manchen Bereichen in wissenschaftliche und persönliche Details übergeht. Es ist ein Beitrag zur Geschichte der österreichischen, aber auch darüber hinaus in andere Länder reichenden Soziologie, welcher seinen Ursprung Anfang der 1970er Jahre nimmt und bis zum Ableben Pollaks und darüber hinaus reicht. Pierre Bourdieu liefert mit seiner Stellungnahme zu „einer Soziologie der Soziologen“ die Antwort, weshalb es von Interesse ist, sich mit der Geschichte der Soziologie und seiner Proponenten zu befassen. Denn es ist oft das als selbstverständlich wahrgenommen Detail, welches zusätzliches Interesse wecken sollte. Das Offensichtliche wird demnach eher zu Interesse führen, als es das Verborgene tut. Daher liegt das Interesse, neben ausgewählten Hauptwerken, vor allem Personen zur Sprache kommen zu lassen, die mit Michael Pollak auf persönlicher und/oder akademischer Ebene zu tun hatten. Diese liefern Ergebnisse die in einem Überblick an Hand der Kapitalsorten nach Bourdieu dargestellt werden. Die Verknüpfung der Inhalte der fünf Gespräche und ausgewählten Texten von und über Michael Pollak, geschieht in einer Gegenüberstellung der verschiedenen Sichtweisen in dieser übergeordneten Struktur. Das Ergebnis präsentiert sich in einem Netzwerk Pollaks, welches an Hand seiner Publikationen dargestellt wird. Weiter zeigt sich eine Ausgangshypothese, nämlich die Randstellung Pollaks in der österreichischen Soziologie, als eine Frage des Blickwinkels. Dieser hat maßgeblich Einfluss darauf, ob von einer Randstellung gesprochen werden kann oder nicht. Die dargestellten Nachrufe und Interviews zeigen nur einen Teil des Ganzen. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigt sich die Tragweite seiner Arbeiten und Leistungen, welche bis heute, in vor allem methodischer Hinsicht, immer noch Geltung haben. Außerdem wird der ständige Austausch zwischen Michael Pollak mit seinem privaten und wissenschaftlichen Umfeld dargestellt und auch die Zielstrebigkeit bzw. das Engagement vor Augen geführt, mit welcher Pollak die inspiratorische Kraft, die sein Soziologieverständnis und seine Persönlichkeit bis heute noch in Teilen der Disziplin und in seinem privaten Umfeld hinterlassen hat.This thesis explores the scientific career and personality of Michael Pollak. In his biography, I focus on episodes and key aspects of his academic and personal life aiming to give an overview and explore his personal circumstances why he studied HIV research. This thesis contributes to Austrian sociology, however Michael Pollak’s research need to be addressed in a European and international context due to his multilingualism approach. In this present thesis, I studied Pollak’s scientific career starting in the beginnings of the 1970s until 1992 and other contributions beyond his death. Beside his most well known works on HIV/ Aids and the Holocaust, I explored Bourdieu´s question “why it is necessary to study sociology of sociologist”. Therefore, I interviewed Pollak’s family members and academic colleagues who gave insights in his academic and personal life using Pierre Bourdieu´s capital theory. The content of the interviews, main research – articles and books written by and about Michael Pollak – was structured and compared according to Bourdieu´s capitals aiming to connect different point of views. The findings show a dynamic network of Michael Pollak that is displayed in his publications. Further, the hypothesis that Michael Pollak has been marginalised in the Austrian sociology cannot be rejected. However, Pollak’s impact on current research, especially related to his method of oral history, still remains. The lively exchange about Pollak’s academic career and research exists nowadays mostly in his private environment. Michael Pollak’s understanding of sociology and society as driving force inspired me to conduct this thesis and should be considered in future research
Gary Becker's Contributions to Family and Household Economics
No full textGary Becker's influence on the economics of the family has been pervasive. His ideas have dominated research in the economics of the family, shaping the tools we use, the questions we ask, and the answers we give. The foundational assumptions of Becker's economic approach to the family -- maximizing behavior and equilibrium -- as well as such primary auxiliary assumptions as household production and interdependent preferences, are now widely accepted not only by economists but also by family sociologists, demographers, and others who study the family. Yet the interesting and provocative implications of Becker's economic approach to the family do not follow from the foundational assumptions or from the primary auxiliary assumptions. Instead they depend on contested auxiliary assumptions to which neoclassical economics has no commitment and which lack empirical support. This paper discusses the crucial role of auxiliary assumptions in Becker's analysis of the family, first in the context of preferences, then in the context of household production, and finally in the context of family or household collective choice.
Utiliser la sociologie de Michael Pollak aujourd'hui ? Retour sur deux études de cas
No full textConnu du grand public pour un livre novateur, Vienne 1900, paru en 1984, Michael Pollak, viennois installé en France en 1971 pour y faire son doctorat, fut ensuite chercheur au Groupe de sociologie politique et morale (EHESS) et à l'Institut d'histoire du temps présent (CNRS), jusqu'à sa mort en juin 1992 à l'âge de 44 ans. Dans le sillage de Pierre Bourdieu puis de Luc Boltanski et Laurent Thévenot, il exerça en France et en Allemagne une forte influence sur les sciences sociales, en sociologie d'abord, mais aussi en histoire, philosophie, littérature ou esthétique. Ses travaux sur L'Expérience concentrationnaire et la Shoah, ceux sur le sida, Mai 68 ou sur la politique scientifique sont encore au cœur de bien des recherches actuelles. Michael Pollak a défini le concept d'" identité blessée " plaçant l'idée de l'épreuve au centre de l'expérience sociale de l'individu, d'une nature aussi diverse que la déportation, l'immigration ou la maladie. Son œuvre peut également se lire comme une sociologie des possibles. Le travail de Pollak se distingue par sa rigoureuse interdisciplinarité, sa capacité à penser sociologiquement les situations extrêmes ou encore l'historicité des phénomènes sociaux. Ces concepts ont traversé de nombreuses recherches, faisant de Michael Pollak un des penseurs importants de son temps. Ce volume, écrit par des spécialistes de sa pensée ou de champs qu'il a traversés, souligne la diversité de ses apports et leur fécondité. Il illustre ses engagements, ainsi que les principales facettes de son itinéraire intellectuel. Deux textes inédits de Michael Pollak complètent cet ouvrage d'hommages et d'études

Is There Market Power in the French Comte Cheese Market?
No full textAn NEIO approach is used to measure seller market power in the French Comté cheese market, characterised by government-approved supply control. The estimation is performed on quarterly data at the wholesale stage over the period 1985-2005. Three different elasticity shifters are included in the demand specification, and the supply equation accounts for the existence of the European dairy quota policy. The market power estimate is small and statistically insignificant. Monopoly is rejected, as well as weak forms of Cournot oligopoly. Results appear to be robust to the choice of functional form, and suggest little effect of the supply control scheme on consumer prices.Supply control, NEIO, protected designation of origin, Marketing,
The aesthetics of Pierre Boulez
No full textTo enable the reader to find references as quickly and easily as possible, I have grouped all references together in the bibliography in alphabetical order. Texts by the same author are distinguished first by year and second, if there are several texts from the same year, by letter. Interviews and writing collaborations (including published correspondence) involving Boulez are also ordered alphabetically. The year given at the beginning of each bibliographical entry is, in the majority of cases, the year in which the text was first published (not necessarily the year of the edition cited). For all writings written by Boulez, I have provided the original title under which the text in question was first published (usually in French). Many articles have subsequently been translated into English and therefore I have decided to provide page references for both versions. For all texts by writers other than Boulez, I have cited the version of the text I have used. Wherever possible, I have cited the existing English translations of texts originally written in French. However, on many occasions I have considered it necessary to make alterations to the published translations. This is particularly applicable to Boulez on Music Today (1971) and Orientations (1986), both of which display an often heavy-handed and rather inaccurate approach to the task of translating specific concepts employed by Boulez. In contrast. Stocktakings of an Apprenticeship (1991) has required only occasional minor amendments. All changes to the published English translations are acknowledged in the corresponding footnote. None of the material m this thesis has previously been submitted for a degree in this or any other University. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. No quotation from it should be published without prior written consent and information from it should be acknowledged. I have received permission to exceed the word limit from the Graduate School Committee at the University of Durham
Etnografia e fotografia: reflexões sobre as fotografias etnográficas de Pierre Fatumbi Verger
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-graduação em Antropologia Social, Florianópolis, 2009A relação entre a fotografia e a etnografia nos estudos da Antropologia, apesar de antiga e densa, é incerta e complexa. Se por um lado a fotografia é a cada dia mais utilizada nos trabalhos antropológicos, por outro sua potencialidade como algo além da ilustração e de uma técnica de interação com o Outro é pouco explorada. A partir do exemplo, do legado, da trajetória de vida e, principalmente, da obra de Pierre Fatumbi Verger, esta pesquisa se dedica a analisar essa relação. Francês radicado na Bahia na década de 1940, Verger é conhecido mundialmente tanto por seu trabalho como fotógrafo quanto pelas suas pesquisa etnográficas. Há, entretanto, uma indefinição quanto à razão desse reconhecimento, e examinar as suas razões oferece um profícuo campo de reflexão sobre a pesquisa etnográfica, especialmente quando relacionada ao universo das imagens fotográficas. A Fundação Pierre Verger é a instituição que atualmente abriga o acervo do fotógrafo-etnógrafo e onde foi realizada a pesquisa de campo através da qual, aliada à leitura de fotografias relacionadas ao candomblé em suas manifestações na África e na Bahia, foi criada uma metodologia de análise das fotografias que privilegia as interações e os diálogos como espaço de construção de definições sobre a etnografia. Pelo contato com a Fundação, seus freqüentadores e o acervo fotográfico ali disponibilizado, esta pesquisa pretende refletir sobre a etnografia e a construção de um olhar etnográfico em relação direta com o exercício da fotografia.The relationship between photography and ethnography in anthropological studies, albeit ancient and deep, is uncertain and complex. Photography has been increasingly used in anthropological researches but it´s potencial as something beyond illustration and it´s interaction with the Other as a technique is very little explored. This research is dedicated to the analysis of this relationship by taking the work of Pierre Fatumbi Verger, his life and legacy. A French man, rooted in Bahia, Brasil, in the decade of 1940, Verger is known worldwide for his work as a photographer as well as for his etnographic studies. However, the reason of this recognition is undefined and examining the reason for these indefinitions can be a fruitful field of reflection concerning ethnographic researches, especially when related to the photographic universe. The Pierre Verger Foundation is the institution that hosts his photographic and ethnographic collection and it´s also where the field research of this work took place. Through the field research combined with the readings of photographs related to candomblé and it´s manifestations in Africa and Bahia, a photographic analysis methodology was created that privilege interaction and dialogue as a way to build definitions about ethnography. By the contact with the Foundation, it´s users and it´s available photographic collection, this research intends to reflect about the ethnography and the creation of an ethnographic view in direct relation to the exercise of photography
