Sophia H. Chen Zen - ženská tvář Májového hnutí / Sophia H. Chen Zen - woman's face of the May FourthVítková, Laděna January 2015 (has links)
The present master's thesis deals with an introduction of Sophia H. Chen Zen (Chen Hengzhe), the first female professor at Beijing University, who in her life and work represents the generation of May Fourth intellectuals, who were educated in traditional scholarship, but who also recieved modern western education. Western scholarship filled these intellectuals with enthusiasm and they were eagerly introducing it into China. Chen Hengzhe grew up in a traditional scholar family, and since her childhood she longed for education. This desire was fulfilled by winning one of the first Boxer Indemnity Scholarship opened for women. She spent six years on her studies in the United States, where she met some of the leaders of the New Culture Movement (merging with the May Fourth Movement) like Hu Shi, or her future husband Ren Hongjun. Chen Hengzhe is also remembered as a writer of the first baihua-written story, in the early beginning of chinese literary movement. But the main field of Chen Hengzhe was history. Using her knowledge and teaching experience, she wrote one of the first histories of the west in China. Exactly in the analysis of her historical writing lies the center of our thesis. The biggest part concerns with Chen Hengzhe's history textbook and its historical and cultural context of early...

Barnet och barnomsorgen : Bilden av barnet i ett socialpolitiskt projektHammarlund, Karl Gunnar January 1998 (has links)
Swedish child-care institutions - day nurseries, kindergartens - did not until the 1930s become a concern of the Government. In 1943 the Swedish Riksdag for the first time passed a bill that gave child-care institutions a Government subsidy. This thesis deals with the Government's and the parliamentary commissions' attitudes to child-care institutions. Which type of institution ought to receive a subsidy? And for what reasons? The main argument for child-care institutions has always been that they could stimulate a sound development, for the child's own good and for society's. From the 1930s and into the 1950s most participants in the child-care debate stated that the kindergarten or part-time institutions for the pre-school child from the age of three and upwards was the preferable type. Day nurseries for children, even infants, of families were both parents had to work might be necessary but were to be seen as an emergency solution. From the mid-60s the attitu-de changed. Step by step full-time day nurseries became the institutions that were given priority by the Government. This change in attitude presupposes that the notion of the child changed as well. But it did not change in a vacuum. Borrowing an explanatory model from sociologist Johan Asplund, the thesis treats the child as a "figure of thought", placed between a super-structural discourse on child-care and society's basic, material conditions. Important changes at the level of discourse have been the attitude to modern, industrial society, e.g. the necessity of learning to live and work in a society which is complex, highly specialized and in constant change, and the debate on women's emancipation. At the level of material conditions, the most conspicious change is that more and more women have entered the labour market. The changing notion of the child can be understood as the effect of an influence from discourse and base on the "figure of thought". At the same time, the "figure of thought" in-fluenced the discourse. Thus, a child-care system for the benefit of child and woman and labour market could be established, and harmony could be created, at least in the discourse.

Effi Briest, Mathilde Möhring. Vývoj postavy žen na pozadí dobové emancipace ve stejnojmenných románech Theodora Fontana. / Effi Briest, Mathilde Möhring. The Development of Theodor Fontane's Female Characters on the Background of Women Emancipation.Holoubková, Simona January 2013 (has links)
Theodore Fontane is best known as the author of numerous women's novels, which he wrote in the last ten years of his life. This diploma thesis deals with the topic of women's emancipation on the basis of textual analysis of two latter novels by Theodore Fontane - Effi Briest and Mathilde Möhring. In the first part, it characterizes the topic of the period women's emancipation and puts the author's biography into context. In the second part, it creates the picture of position of the main women characters. The last part describes the personal development of the women characters, on the basis of which I determine how much the women's emancipation reflects in the author's work and what is his attitude towards it. This thesis deals with the interpretation of the author's intent to illustrate the creation of an advanced character like Mathilde Möhring. Key words: Theodore Fontane, women's emancipation, Effi Briest, Mathilde Möhring, development of women's characters, women's novels, interpretation, author's intent, counterpoint

The role of educated/ intellectual women in Ethiopia in the process of change and transformation towards gender equality 1974-2005Biseswar Indrawatie 02 1900 (has links)
This thesis is a critical review of educated women’s leadership in their emancipation in
Ethiopia. Did they provide leadership and to what extent? It is to be noted that educated
women’s leadership has been of great importance to women’s emancipation worldwide.
Strong leadership was also the driving force behind women’s movements and feminism
everywhere. However, the role of educated women in Ethiopia is hard to discern and their
leadership efforts are largely invisible. On the other hand, many among the educated also lack
the passion and desire to commit themselves in the fight for women’s emancipation.
In this thesis I researched the settings and frameworks of women’s leadership and discussed
the factors that function as limitations and/or opportunities. Overall there were more
limitations than opportunities. These limitations are often historically rooted in the country’s
religious, cultural, economic, political and traditional systems. And, as much as history and
religion can be a source of strength and pride for many, they can also be a serious obstacle.
The political regime of the Derg also scarred an entire population to the extent that despite
the currently proclaimed ‘freedom’ of the EPRDF ruling party, women remain reluctant to
step forward and claim their rights.
The ruling party appears to appropriate women’s emancipation as a “private” interest and to
use it for political gain, in the same manner as the Derg regime had done before it. Nowhere
is there any sign of genuine freedom and equality for women in practice. Rhetoric reigns
supreme through laws and policy documents, but they are not matched by genuine actions
and concrete strategies. The traditional religious base of society is also making it more
difficult to challenge autocratic tendencies of the ruling elite. The effect is that civil society is
slowly being pushed to extinction, leaving the ruling party in charge as the main actor in all
public services. This has serious consequences for the genuine emancipation of women in the
country.
The thesis finds that women’s leadership is not a luxury or personal demand, but a crucial
step for the development of the country at large. It is encouraging to note that there are
different sections of active women in the country waiting for strong leadership, leadership
that can unite them into a movement and guide them on their unique emancipation paths.
After all, it is only women themselves who, with their existing epistemic advantage, can
transform their situation and change their status. / Sociology / D.Litt. et Phil. (Sociology)
