El estudio de los cuidados prestados en los entornos familiares se ha convertido en un tema de gran actualidad en el contexto del incremento creciente de la participación de las mujeres en el trabajo remunerado, de la reducción de las atribuciones del Estado de bienestar y del envejecimiento de la población en las sociedades modernizadas. En este artículo se presentan algunas reflexiones sobre la investigación de corte etnográfico realizada en la provincia de Sevilla (España), en la que se estudia la forma en que interactúan las diferentes dimensiones (material, moral y emocional) que operan en la transmisión intergeneracional de saberes y competencias sobre los cuidados que se prestan en los entornos familiares.

It may be said that families dispersed for social or political reasons to different parts of the globe were like satellites or capsules of culture, who then became the main custodians of a cultural preservation, where time more or less stood still. Like other recently arrived migrants following WWII, settlers from regional Calabria immersed themselves in the familiar and clung to the traditions and customs of their homeland. The importance of maintaining cultural attributes was due to the belief that the same thing was happening back in their place of origin. Through the modes of narrative enquiry and autoethnography, my multidisciplinary arts practice-based research investigates, interprets and translates the experiences of Calabrian settlers to Victoria’s North West, in a contemporary visual art and sociological context. Notions of belief and religious practices, gender roles and stereotypes, family relationships, nostalgia, and cultural loss and preservation are also explored in my work. Tracciando fili del passato [Tracing threads of the past], is an ongoing series of live art performances, installations and video explorations, which incorporate the transformation of self into an imagined version of my Calabrian grandmothers. During these enactments, I make artefacts utilising traditional women’s modes of making – sewing, embroidery and crochet. These activities are chosen in order to highlight the significance of women’s handmade craft work, which were once an important aspect of family relationships, passed from mother to daughter. The work is a manifestation of their hopes and dreams and strives to honour the women migrants whose voices were not always heard on account of dominant gender roles within the Calabrian diaspora of 1950s, 60s and 70s Australia.

This symposium is a collaboration between three diverse Italian migration organisations – a welfare and cultural agency, a tertiary institute and a museum – each deeply connected with the community, institutions and culture of a cosmopolitan city which is also iconic of the Italian migrant and diasporic experience. This symposium – the first international conference of its kind – brings together researchers and practitioners from Australia, the United States, Italy and other locations to explore the vicissitudes of Italians and Italian identity in the transcultural spaces defined by mobility.

Hopes that "third wave" transitions in sub-Saharan Africa in the early 1990s would usher in a new era of liberal democracy vanished fairly quickly when new forms of liberalized authoritarianism emerged. Illiberal democracy has taken hold as the political trajectory shifted from an opening to a closure when the wave of regime transitions lost steam by the end of the decade. Unlike a relatively steady process of democratic consolidation and a renewed democratic awakening in post-Communist Europe, the region saw continued democratic erosion or breakdown of democratically elected governments and the institutionalization of various illiberal, semi-authoritarian regimes by the turn of the century. Contrary to presumptions of a rebirth of liberal democracy prevalent among some scholars and policy-makers, third wave democratization in Africa predominantly ended up in illiberal democracies and stable semi-authoritarian regimes. Based on a cross-regional analysis and new data made available only recently, this article examines the levels of institutionalization of three main features of democracy: elections, liberal democracy, and the rule of law. It employs a path-dependent institutional approach that focuses on political institutions—both formal and informal—both as causal explanations for the democratic deficit of the transitions and as objects of study in the analysis of democratic consolidation or lack thereof.

A chronological history of the development of what would become Florida's Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. The story begins in 1881 when the State of Florida agreed with a private St. Augustine-based company (Florida Coast Line Canal & Transportation Company) to grant the company 3,840 acres of public land for constructing each mile of waterway from y St. Augustine, Fla., to Miami, Fla., eventually extending construction north to Jacksonville, Fla. The State also granted the private company the right to collect tolls for maintenance. By 1912, the State of Florida had granted this private company over a million acres of public land for an inland waterway 268 miles long. In 1929, the State of Florida bought the waterway and turned it and necessary right-of-way over to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for enlarging and perpetual maintenance by the federal government by Act of Congress (1927). It then became a public waterway free of the burden of tolls.
