The article deals with new family structures as consequences of temporal migration of one or both parents abroad, while their children live in Lithuania alone, looked after by relatives, state ...institutions. The extent of this trend poses a challenge to family institution. The questions are raised whether these transnational family structures become an alternative to a nuclear family as was the case with cohabitation, commuting families, and LATs? What cognitive and emotional charge is contained within the public discourse of these families and how these new structures can be conceptualized in the academic field? The authors of the article seek to discuss the results of three sociological research studies, carried out from 2004 to 2006. Triangulation of methods and theoretical reflection of this new family form is presented. The data disclose the way families with parents abroad are portrayed in Lithuanian press and internet portal. Stigmatization and stigma management strategies experienced by children are reported. Theoretical reflection of new family form in terms of family stress and social exchange theories are discussed as well as explication of risk dimension and social networking are suggested.
The closing of the “Golden Gate” to the promised land, the United States of America, after the First World War triggered a new wave of migration to the developed countries of Europe, primarily ...France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. This was the time of the first Yugoslavia, officially known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Part of these migrations included Slovene emigrants and their children. The interwar period was marked by a major economic crisis and intensified ideological and political pressures. The Catholic Church was a strong presence with regard to the emigrants. The book ('Slovene emigrants and Western Europe during the time of the first Yugoslavia') describes and analyses the emigrants’ everyday lives, the work of emigrant societies, the publication of emigrant newsletters, the work of emigrant teachers and priests, the work of consular offices, the organisation of contacts with the homeland, the organisation of children’s holiday camps, and the children’s pen-pal contacts all over the world. It discusses emigrant activities, the zeitgeist, creativity and contacts with the new environments. We also find numerous simple literary highlights in the emigrant contacts. Singing, acting and music were always and everywhere present among the emigrants, both during joyful celebrations and solemn occasions. The book gives us a deep insight into the world of the emigrants during the period between the two world wars.
Oblici i učinkovitost političke opozicije komunističkom režimu u Jugoslaviji, u posljednjem desetljeću njezinog postojanja, još uvijek nam u dobrom dijelu ostaju nepoznanicom. Slučaj Janjka ...Sarajlića, pojedinca koji se, uslijed zamršene osobne i obiteljske povijesti osuđen na drugorazrednu egzistenciju, drznuo pobuniti, zbog toga prisilno otišao „na privremeni rad u inozemstvu“, potom usudio unijeti u okvir zatvorenog društva nedopuštenu literaturu, zbog čega je uhićen, osuđen te je kaznu služio u nekim od najzloglasnijih kaznionica u državi, a potom se u inozemstvu odlučio aktivno boriti protiv jugoslavenske države, posebno je indikativan za poznavanje problematike nenasilnog otpora komunističkoj Jugoslaviji. Stoga, pored analize djelovanja Janjka Sarajlića, čovjeka o kojemu je tadašnji hrvatski emigrantski tisak naveliko pisao i o čijoj sudbini novodostupno arhivsko gradivo donosi niz podataka, ali je ona svejedno nepoznata, kako u široj javnosti, tako i u uskim okvirima hrvatske historiografije, sljedeće rečenice donose i razmatranja o političkom kriminalu, naravi pravosuđa i zatvorskog sustava te uključenosti emigracije u pokušaje političkih i društvenih promjena u komunističkoj Jugoslaviji.
