New Public Spheres
The public sphere provides a domain of social life in which public opinion is expressed by means of rational discourse and debate. Habermas linked its historical development to the coffee houses and journals in England, Parisian salons and German reading clubs. He described it as a bourgeois public sphere, where private people come together and where they turn from a politically disempowered bourgeoisie into an effective political agent - the public intellectual. With communication networks being diversified and expanded over time, the worldwide web has put pressure on traditional public spheres. These new informal and horizontal networks shaped by the internet create new contexts in which a...
Population Change in Europe, the Middle-East and North Africa

The Journey to Saraland
Sara Lynn Riggs is doing her best to convince everyone around her that she is not the basketcase they have made her out to be. At one time she felt normal. But that was before her beloved Trey McAlester died at age twenty, and her fateful decision to fall in love with his older brother, Jake, a short time later. Now decades later and with the brief love affair behind her, Sara is continuing to work on herself and be the best mother she can be to her youngest daughter, Katie Lynelle, while trying to stay in touch with reality. But when she receives a call that Jake now has Alzheimer’s disease, is in a nursing home, and sometimes asks for her, Sara, who is haunted by her memories of days gone by, is led on a journey within where she can only hope the truth, love, and healing await. The Journey to Saraland is the story of a woman’s personal experiences as she rises from a dark past to embrace her true identity and find the happiness she deserves.

Absent Mothers and Orphaned Fathers
Gustafson provides a comprehensive overview of Lessing's comments on the structure and purpose of the domestic tragedy within the context of his Laokoon essay, demonstrating that the fundamental psychic-deep structures informing his aesthetic and dramatic production are male narcissism and the abjection of the woman/the mother. As opposed to earlier studies of gender/generic questions in Lessing's dramas, this analysis explicates the theoretical basis for the rigid codification of gender which informs Lessing's fictional symbolic order.
