We explore the five main ways in which interviewees spoke about and understood their current living apart relationships (as: chosen; temporary; transitional; undecided; and unrecognisable), which we argue shows the need for a broader conceptualisation of this form of intimate relationship than is suggested by the established notion of ‘living apart together’. The article points to interviewees’ varying experiences of receiving or being denied recognition and acceptance by others as belonging to a couple, as well as to their differing degrees of desire for, or rebellion against, expectations that living apart relationships should ‘progress’ towards cohabitation.

Oitenta anos apos oultimo congresso feminista em Portugal, a UMAR ousou lancar um desafio na sociedade portuguesa: a realizacao de um congresso feminista que contribuisse para dar visibilidade aos feminismos como uma corrente plural de pensamento e accao. Nao o fez sozinha. Procurou envolver diversos sectores sociais, culturais, associativos e politicos numa vasta comissao promotora. (...) No contexto de um novo seculo, o congresso feminista de 2008 serviu tambem para quebrar as espirais de silencios que tem envolvido as lutas feministas e conduzido a perpetuacao das invisibilidades seculares das mulheres e do pensamento critico feminista.

As faith in the grand narratives and political projects of modernity has faltered, there has been a turn towards situated contingent ethical frameworks. Both the philosophical basis and political contours of these emerging ethical frameworks are the subject of intense debate among feminists. The articles collected in this special issue were originally presented at the Gendering Ethics/The Ethics of Gender conference organized by the Centre for Interdisciplinary Gender Studies at the University of Leeds in June 2000. The conference was conceived as an occasion on which to bring together feminist scholars from a wide range of disciplines, and from around the world, who were working on issues relating to gender and ethics. More than 130 papers were presented at the conference and scholars from 27 countries participated in three days of lively discussions. The selection of only six papers for this special issue was a difficult task, and we would like to extend our thanks to all who contributed to the conference but whose work is not represented here.1 The papers from the conference are complemented by Margrit Shildrick’s review article, which offers a critical assessment of the state of the art in feminist ethics, focusing on six recently published books.

All of the perspectives presented will force a rethink of the exact meaning of globalisation and the way in which such insights can be used to advance understanding of basic transformations occurring in the diverse world of the twenty-first century.

Using the notion of 'boundaries', the book shifts thinking from 'families as entities' to 'families as relationship processes'. Emphasising the processes that underlie boundary construction and reconstruction suggests that the key to understanding family life is the process of relationship formation. The ideas of entity, boundary, margins and hybridity provide a framework for understanding the diverse, and often contradictory, ways in which families contribute to society. Families in society makes a significant contribution to the academic literature on families and is essential reading for social science students, social researchers, policy makers and practitioners interested in families and relationships.

It addresses fundamental questions facing those working in the social and human sciences today. What are the possibilities, and challenges, for social research after the 'cultural turn'? How have the epistemological and political contexts of social research changed? Can we still define a distinct sphere of 'the social' to research? What distinguishes social research from cultural studies and the humanities? What methodologies might critical social research employ, and in what registers should it operate? Social Research after the Cultural Turn brings together leading scholars from a range of disciplines and interdisciplinary fields - including gender and feminist studies, psychosocial studies and psychoanalysis, religious studies, history, development studies, law, critical race and post-colonial studies, and sociology

Using examples from the people's art of Potsdammer Platz to the ways in which Western cultural icons are reinterpreted in Asian magazines, this collection of essays unpicks the rhetoric of globalization in political analysis, cultural theory and urban and economic sociology and exposes the myth of the global society as in many cases a dangerous exaggeration.

Featuring contributors from both sides of the Atlantic, the book contains a series of case studies on new social movements including campaigns on the environment, gender, animal rights and human rights.

It investigates whether, and how far, non-cohabiting partners, friends, 'blood' and legal ties are seen as 'family', and how practices of care and support, and feelings of closeness are related to these constructions. It suggests that people in LAT relationships creatively draw and re-draw the boundaries of family belonging in ways that involve emotionally subjective understandings of family life, and that also refer to normative constructions of what 'family' ought to be, as well as to practical recognitions of lived family 'realities'. This often involves handling uncertainties about what constitutes 'family'.
