The 'Second Shift' Is Not Why Women Avoid News
Women are more likely than men to avoid political and economic news, but the reasons for this behaviour are linked less to structural inequality or family-related stress than to personal attitudes and the emotional perception of news content. This conclusion was reached by HSE researchers after analysing data from a large-scale survey of more than 10,000 residents across 61 regions of Russia. The study findings have been published in Woman in Russian Society.

The history of the Austrian commercial colleges from their foundation as independent educational institutes to full integration into public administration (1850s-1950s)

Entreprises et histoire. 2012. Vol. 65. No. 4. P. 986–1011.
Thurner T.
After the revolutionary years of 1848-1849, the bourgeoisie was ready to become the leading economic power in the Habsburg Empire. The newly granted economic liberty requested young people well trained to manage the new ventures. To meet these requirements, private initiatives founded and financed the first commercial colleges, based upon liberal ideas and driven by excellence in teaching. At the end of World War I, when times got difficult and the schools suffered heavy losses in their economic base, the schools requested to become fully integrated into public administration. This step proved fatal when the national socialists gained power in 1938 and the schools became a tool in the abolishment of liberalism – the very idea on which the schools were founded.

Suoni e lettere della musica: intermedialità nei transferts culturali austro-sovietici (1945-1955)
Golovlev A., Mondo Contemporaneo 2020 Vol. 2/3 P. 193–206
Upon Vienna's liberation, the quickly restored Austro-Soviet Society was equally quick to find out that the demand for Russian music far outweighed any interest in Soviet Communism. In a burnt-out Vienna, sheet music was a valuable commodity, and generous Soviet imports, an intergral part of musical diplomacy, were influential in shaping early post-war repertoires and ...

Die Österreichische Gesellschaft für Soziologie (ÖGS) wurde 1950 gegründet, begann aber erst ab Mitte der 1960er-Jahre Aktivitäten zu entfalten. Das Bemühen, ein Professionsverband zu werden, stieß an Grenzen, da derartige Organisationen in Österreich systematisch nicht vorgesehen waren und ein kleiner Verein wie die ÖGS diese Randbedingungen auch nicht zu ändern vermochte. Die ÖGS gründete 1976 ...
