This comprehensive text highlights new developments in
sociological, educational and psychological aspects of
socialisation, examining how human beings as 'subjects' -
experiencing, thinking and acting individuals - confront the
material, social and cultural 'objects' of their environment and
sustain their position. The authors provide an overview of the most
important theories of socialisation, then integrate these using the
Productive Processing of Reality (PPR) model. This novel approach
is applied to a life course analysis, examining developmental tasks
and the challenges of productive processing of the internal and
external reality at various stages of development. The book also
considers contexts, addressing the inequalities between different
socio-economic and ethnic groups and genders, to consider how
humans - with their genetic dispositions and their individual
instincts and needs - solve the task of coping with the
requirements of society, culture and economy while at the same time
safeguarding their status as unique individuals. It is core reading
for advanced students on socialisation modules in developmental or
social psychology and educational sciences and is additionally of
value for the professional training of sociologists, teachers and
social workers. It is also relevant for all those interested in
elementary questions of how the interaction between the society and
the individual works; how human beings deal not only with
themselves but also with their social and physical environment, and
how they shape it in their own way.

Health Inequalities sind ein vielschichtiger und provokanter
Gegenstand der aktuellen sozial- und gesundheitswissenschaftlichen
Forschung. Einschlagige Befunde zu sozial bedingten
gesundheitlichen Ungleichheiten liegen bislang vor allem auf der
beschreibenden Ebene vor. Hiernach gilt: Der Schweregrad und die
Haufigkeit von Erkrankungen sowie das Risiko des fruhzeitigen Todes
sind durch soziale Faktoren bestimmt. Unklar aber bleibt auch
weiterhin, wie diese Beziehung erklart werden kann. Die
Determinanten und Mechanismen gesundheitlicher Ungleichheit stehen
darum im Zentrum des vorliegenden Bandes, der in dieser Form
erstmals Beitrage fuhrender Fachvertreter der internationalen
Forschung zusammenfuhrt. Erklarende Perspektiven und ihre
Konsequenzen werden entlang makro-, meso- und mikroanalytischer
Zugange diskutiert. Der Band ist eine Pflichtlekture fur
Wissenschaft und Praxis im Bereich Soziologie, Public Health,
Epidemiologie, Gesundheitsforderung und Sozialpolitik.

Verortungen Sozialer Arbeit seit Jahren eine herausragende Position
ein. In dem Buch wird auf der Folie dieser theoretischen Konzepte
