Eco-tourism represents a new segment of the tourist market that is drawing a great deal of attention on account of the relations it has fashioned with cultural and ecological dynamics. Nevertheless, its socio-economic context has remained relegated to second place in reflections on how to assess its limitations and potential. Based on the presumed need to draw up public policies of a distributive nature to face Brazil’s concentration of income, this work sets out to analyze the social function of eco-tourism from the view-point of productive and commercial relations in order to see more clearly the role of eco-tourism in social change.

The study intends to highlight the functions of property rights in relation to the characteristics of urbanism law. The analyse aims to identify the role of public authorities in the production process of planning public policies, under current regulations in force in Romania. Moreover, while the legislation led to confer a social function of property rights, this conception of property rights comes up against the revival of private property, which is likely to complicate the implementation of public planning policies. The social function of the property law, however, could reach its limits in the coming years. Indeed, the jurisprudence appears to give a boost to the individualistic dimension of ownership complicating the achievement of public planning policies.

This chapter examines four themes that raise the question of the connection between cultural development and social change in the Scandinavian kingdoms: religious versus secular literature, the social importance of Christianity, the writing of history, and the formation of a courtly culture from the mid-thirteenth century onwards. In particular, it considers the extent to which cultural and literary expressions of these social changes were actively used to promote the interests of the monarchy, the Church, and the aristocracy. The chapter first discusses the role of the Church as the main institution of learning in Scandinavia and in the rest of Europe before assessing the extent to which Christianity penetrated Scandinavian society at levels below the clerical elite. It then turns to a charismatic figure, St. Birgitta of Vadstena in Sweden, and historical writing as a literary genre in medieval Scandinavia. Finally, it provides an overview of courtly culture in Scandinavia.

Due to the increase in popularity and the possibility of using action research, the instrument began to be used significantly, but with a concept not yet consolidated, the term has been applied in an abstract way, without deep and detailed interpretations of the use in various contexts. It is intended to clarify throughout this article the meaning of the term, and how this type of instrument can be applied in the best way, acting within the sphere of scientific-methodological rigor. The research problem is: what are the possibilities of using action research, its stages and fundamental care? The relevance of the tool lies in the fact that it allows the conduct of a research in a systematized, continuous and empirically based manner. Thus, it will be discussed about the role of theory in action research and the characteristics inherent to its fundamental phases will be pointed out. Some common questions related to the method, such as the participation of the researcher, the social function of reflection, the need to manage the acquired knowledge and ethics in research should be considered. Finally, some action research “models” are presented that can contribute to researchers in methodological choice and organization.

The study compares representations of teachers in the Czech broadsheet Mladá fronta and the British broadsheet The Daily Telegraph, aiming to reveal their possible impact on the level of public respect towards teachers. The methodology employed is critical discourse analysis, combining an investigation of semantic macrostructures and recurrent transitivity patterns. It is revealed that both newspapers call attention to problems regarding the teaching profession, advocating social change and higher job prestige. The social significance of a teacher is enhanced in both newspapers by allocating a teacher not only the role of a transmitter of knowledge but also a moral guide concerned with social issues. The main difference between the two broadsheets is that The Daily Telegraph foregrounds teachers’ wrongdoings, while Mladá fronta highlights teachers’ accomplishments. This seems to be mainly due to the inclusion of a section with regional content in the Czech broadsheet.

Pandemi Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19) memiliki dampak yang signifikan ke perubahan perilaku masyarakat. Dampak tersebut memunculkan permasalahan berupa ketidakmampuan masyarakat dalam mengelola rasa curiga, takut, sikap over-protektif. Bila hal itu tidak diselesaikan dengan baik, maka dapat merusak hubungan sosial antar individu. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif-analitis, dengan menggunakan teori psikodinamika. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pekerja sosial berperan dalam mengubah perilaku masyarakat, sehingga mereka mampu menyelesaikan permasalahan sosial akibat dampak pandemi Covid-19. Peranan pekerja sosial, yakni: pertama, berperan dalam meningkatkan fungsi sosial individu-individu. Hal itu dilakukan pekerja sosial dengan memberikan pertolongan agar individu mampu memahami konflik (kepanikan/keresahan) pikiran-pikiran dan perasaannya.

In the first paper of this series of three, Harvey's ‘circuits of capital’ argument was discussed, and was linked first to ground rent theory, and second to forms of social change and crisis in advanced, Western-style economies. In the present paper these various theoretical insights are used to reflect upon the urban housing market in Melbourne from the 1930s to the 1980s. It is concluded (1) that average rent (average annual cost relative to wages), and thereby housing-related accumulation, rose virtually uninterrupted from 1932 to 1977, providing the incentive to the suburbanisation boom of the 1950s and 1960s; (2) that an extraordinary rise in average rent in 1973 – 74 (to be viewed as ‘absolute rent’) created an affordability barrier, inhibiting the ability of the housing sector to provide an outlet for speculative investment in the current ‘global crisis’; and (3) that differentiated shifts in monopoly ground rent (that is, price rises in some submarkets and falls in others) thereby became increasingly important in providing incentive for both speculative and productive investment in housing. The third paper will extend this empirical exploration to the social conditions enabling these processes, and in turn affected by them.
