Involving experts from around 20 European countries, the goal of Econ@Tel was to develop a strategic research and training network among key people and organizations in order to enhance Europe's competence in the field of telecommunications economics.   Reflecting the organization of the COST Action IS0605 Econ@Tel in working groups the following four major research areas are addressed:   - evolution and regulation of communication ecosystems; - social and policy implications of communication technologies; - economics and governance of future networks; - future networks management architectures and mechanisms.Computer Communication Networks and Telecommunications ;7216Computer communication systemsElectrical engineeringComputers and civilizationManagement information systemsComputer scienceComputer Communication Networkshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13022Communications Engineering, Networkshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24035Computers and Societyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I24040Management of Computing and Information Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I24067computer communicationsmobile communicationsnetwork architecturesnetwork economicsnetwork managementnetworkingtelecommunication regulationComputer communication systems.Electrical engineering.Computers and civilization.Management information systems.Computer science.Computer Communication Networks.Communications Engineering, Networks.Computers and Society.Management of Computing and Information Systems.004.6Hadjiantonis Antonis Medt1354918Hadjiantonis Antonis Medthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtStiller Burkhardedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtEuropean Cooperation in the Field of Scientific and Technical Research (Organization),MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996198815103316Telecommunication Economics3358681UNISA04417oam 2200673 c 450 99639864850331620231110225938.03-8394-4303-210.14361/9783839443033(CKB)4100000007587456(DE-B1597)498852(OCoLC)1083627320(DE-B1597)9783839443033(MiAaPQ)EBC5652049(MiAaPQ)EBC6750891(Au-PeEL)EBL6750891(transcript Verlag)9783839443033(MiAaPQ)EBC6986322(Au-PeEL)EBL6986322(MiAaPQ)EBC30534931(Au-PeEL)EBL30534931(EXLCZ)99410000000758745620220221d2019 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Decline of Marriage in NamibiaKinship and Social Class in a Rural CommunityJulia Pauli1st ed.Bielefeldtranscript Verlag20191 online resource (296 p.)Kultur und soziale Praxis3-8376-4303-4 Frontmatter 1 Content 5 List of tables 7 List of figures 8 Acknowledgements 9 Introduction 15 Fransfontein fieldwork 47 History through biography 73 Postapartheid livelihoods 99 Contemporary Fransfontein marriages 127 From decline to distinction 167 Forming families 199 Intimacy outside marriage 227 Conclusion 257 Reference list 267In Southern Africa, marriage used to be widespread and common. However, over the past decades marriage rates have declined significantly. Julia Pauli explores the meaning of marriage when only few marry. Although marriage rates have dropped sharply, the value of weddings and marriages has not. To marry has become an indicator of upper-class status that less affluent people aspire to. Using the appropriation of marriage by a rural Namibian elite as a case study, the book tells the entwined stories of class formation and marriage decline in post-apartheid Namibia.»It is an intricate analysis of how transformations in Namibian marriage practices have been framed and structured by dramatic political and economic changes in the twentieth century, and thus how the vantage point ofmarriage is a productive tool from which to study how personal experiences reflect larger social shifts.« Rachel Spronk, African Studies Review, 63/4 (2020) »With its balanced discussion of the regional literature the monograph is a good read for social scientists doing research in the Southern African region and of value to anyone researching gender and family relations. In addition, it is an inspiration for anyone interested in class relationsin Africa.« Astrid Bochow, Anthropos, 115 (2020) »This is a rich and valuable study, offering a nuanced and historically sensitive approach to an important question.« Meredith McKittrick, H-Net-Reviews, 6 (2020) »This monograph provides a superb ethnography and a fruitful resource for understanding most of the core issues that revolve around marriage and the lack thereof in a Namibian community. It has much value as an anthropological study that indicates how new consumption patterns affect ›traditional institutions‹.« Stephanie Rudwick, Modern Africa, 7/2 (2019) Besprochen in: Africa Spectrum, 55/1 (2020), Lena Kroeker Journal of Namibian Studies, 28 (2020), Henning MelberKultur und Soziale Praxis Marriage; Namibia; Elites; Consumption; Kinship; Class; Family; Social Inequality; Postcolonialism; Ethnology; African History; Africa;Africa.African History.Class.Consumption.Elites.Ethnology.Family.Kinship.Namibia.Postcolonialism.Social Inequality.Marriage; Namibia; Elites; Consumption; Kinship; Class; Family; Social Inequality; Postcolonialism; Ethnology; African History; Africa;390Pauli Juliaaut1076456DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996398648503316The Decline of Marriage in Namibia2587015UNISA
