This paper explores the reality of patriarchal privileging and resistance within a society which has undergone dramatic change over the past twenty-five years. Using Foucault's ideas of power and resistance (1980; 1988; 1989) and Connell's ideas of the patriarchal dividend (1995 a and b) it first explores these key concepts. It then draws together a wide range of empirical evidence to document the ongoing reality of patriarchal privileging in the world of paid work and the family in Ireland. It then however identifies and illustrates fourteen analytically different types of resistance including the creation of an alternative power base in the family; facilitating the emergence of new child rearing structures; naming the ‘enemy within’; naming aspects of culture which are not ‘woman friendly’; whistle blowing; targeting key structures; negative power etc. It concludes by suggesting (drawing on Acker, 1998) that although the institutional structures reflect the needs and wishes of powerful men, choices can still be made by individual men and women.

This chapter explores the key factors involved in the interaction between religion and globalization. It highlights the roles played by transnational networks, fields, and regimes, as well as migrant and religious diasporas, mass culture, and electronic media in the global circulation and appropriation of religious practices, beliefs, symbols, artifacts, and identities. Using the examples of religious networks associated with Islam, Hinduism, and Christianities, the chapter also argues that while the economic dimensions of religion in a context of globalization are central, the dynamics of global religious fields cannot be reduced to those of the world capitalist system. Religious flows and networks are multi-directional. There is thus a need to develop interdisciplinary and multi-sited approaches to these flows and networks, examining the ways in which they challenge fixed center–periphery models and produce alternative power/geometries shaping religious identities, cultures, and embodied as well as spatialized ontologies.

Fossil Fuel Emissions

The article analyses peculiarities and specific features of the use of alternative power and fuel capacities during its formation in the sphere of air transport land management. The following elements of the system for producing power-efficient resources comprises have been considered. It substantiates the necessity to involve the concepts of design and use of a modern power-efficient airport infrastructure and its connection with sound and efficient land management. The authors consider the experience of other countries and the perspectives of alternative power and fuel resources – the "green areas". Also It have been established that every new project of an airport or a reconstructed one, shall be focused on meeting the latest standards of minimization of the airport’s impact on the environment and on the reduction of climatic changes, connected with its infrastructure and activities. Within the studies of the experts in the sphere of the aviation industry, and the members of ICAO council, it have been considered the concept of development and use of a modern, power-efficient airport infrastructure. The authors have proposed a modification of the methodological calculation of resource conservation indicators by reducing fossil fuel emissions within the airport and surrounding areas.
