Описание: The coasts of today’s American South feature luxury condominiums,resorts, and gated communities, yet just a century ago, a surprising amountof beachfront property in the Chesapeake, along the Carolina shores, andaround the Gulf of Mexico was owned and populated by African Americans.Blending social and environmental history, Andrew W. Kahrl tells the storyof African American–owned beaches in the twentieth century. By reconstructingAfrican American life along the coast, Kahrl demonstrates just howimportant these properties were for African American communities andleisure, as well as for economic empowerment, especially during the era ofthe Jim Crow South. However, in the wake of the civil rights movement andamid the growing prosperity of the Sunbelt, many African Americans fellvictim to effective campaigns to dispossess black landowners of their propertiesand beaches.Kahrl makes a signal contribution to our understanding of AfricanAmerican landowners and real-estate developers, as well as the developmentof coastal capitalism along the southern seaboard, tying the creation of overdeveloped,unsustainable coastlines to the unmaking of black communitiesand cultures along the shore. The result is a skillful appraisal of the ambiguouslegacy of racial progress in the Sunbelt.

Chapter 1
IntroductionSara Rizvi Jafree Chapter 2South Asian Women's Health Behaviour: Theoretical Explanations Sara Rizvi Jafree Deepti SastryIt is imperative to consider theoretical explanations that provide a premise for the health behaviour of South Asian women. This chapter relies on using western theories and the available South Asian theories to explain health behaviour of women. One of the reasons for South Asian theory lagging behind Western theory is because indigenous researchers have been reluctant to develop philosophical models and suffer persecution from male dominated community notables, religious leaders, and politicians. Multiple theories are used to explain the different health behaviours and choices of South Asian women, as the range of behaviour patterns across regions and ethnicities is diverse and complex. Broad areas of influence covered in this chapter, include: (i) culture and community, (ii) religion and the state, (iii) the individual woman herself, (iv) the capitalist economy, and (iv) transnational factors. This chapter is an important read for diverse populations such as students, practitioners, researchers, and policy-makers. Chapter 3 Oral Narrations of Social Rejection Suffered by South Asian Women with Irreversible Health Conditions Sara Rizvi JafreeFareen RahmanThere is no better way to understand the sociocultural factors influencing the health behaviour, health recovery, and overall well-being of South Asian women with regard to their lived experiences of health than by hearing their voiced experiences. This chapter presents oral narrations of four women across South Asia with current health conditions of chronic nature or who have experienced major health setbacks in life. The women belong to diverse socioeconomic strata, which helps to put into context how social beliefs and attitudes transcend wealth and class. Two of the women participants face permanent health conditions from birth -- paralysis and blindness; and the other two have developed health conditions after marriage -- cancer and infertility. The findings reveal that the most complex and frustrating challenge for South Asian women has not been their health condition or lack of resources and health infrastructure, but the social and family support, public attitudes, and community acceptance that they have had to contend with through different stages of their health. Though the health experiences of all four women are different, they reveal the main challenges women face due to social customs, religious interpretations, and traditional values that are prevalent in South Asia. Chapter 4 Dependency in Health Decision-making of South Asian Women Sara Rizvi JafreeRubeena ZakarShaheda Anwar It is common to measure women's decision-making through variables like: choice in marriage, education, and employment; however, the variable of health decision-making has been less researched and emphasized. The complexity of health decision-making is that it is still considered a private domain. The strength of this chapter is that it uses recent secondary data from the Demographic Health Surveys of Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan to highlight predictors for health decision-making for women of reproductive age. This chapter discusses the salient cultural factors that influence or control health decision-making in women of South Asia: (i) gender gaps and family factor, (ii) health education and health behaviour, (iii) nature of employment, (iv) violence and safety, and (v) quality of healthcare services and traditional healers. Necessary recommendations for health policy

Описание: This contributed volume is the first-known collection of essays that brings together scholarly review, critiques, and primary and secondary data to assess how sociocultural factors influence health behavior in South Asian women. The essays are authored by working scholars or healthcare practitioners from Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan. In the chapters, the contributors acknowledge social, economic, and environmental factors to recommend improved interventions and health policy for women of the region. Studies on South Asian women's health have targeted clinical evidence, with less attention on social and environmental factors driving health recovery and health outcomes. The South Asian region, more than any other part of the world, is driven by traditional and cultural forces that are possibly the most significant factors determining a woman's health awareness and her rights to adopt healthy behavior or pursue health recovery. Women of the region share a common culture and political history, and there are benefits to understanding their problems collectively in order to design joint improvements in health policy for women. Salient, but neglected, socio-political areas that influence health behavior and health outcomes in women of the region are covered in the chapters including:
Oral Narrations of Social Rejection Suffered by South Asian Women with Irreversible Health Conditions
Women's Role in Decision-Making for Health Care in South Asia
Poverty, Health Coverage, and Credit Opportunities for South Asian Women
Refugee, Displaced, and Climate-Affected Women of South Asia and Their Health Challenges
The Political Sociology of South Asian Women's Health
The Sociology of South Asian Women's Health is a useful resource for students, researchers, and academicians, especially those interested in public health, gender, social policy, and occupational management, as well as healthcare practitioners, administrators, health and public policy-makers, government officers, and scholars of South Asian studies.

Описание: In India about 123,000 people take their own lives each year, the second highest total in the world. There is a suicide death in India almost every 4 minutes, and it is the leading cause of death for rural Indians especially women in early adulthood. This book presents a comprehensive analysis of suicide in India based on original research as well as existing studies, and looks at the issue in an international, sociological and historical context. The author looks at the reliability of suicide data in India, and goes on to discuss various factors relating to suicide, including age, gender, education and marriage. Among its findings, the book exposes a hidden youth suicide ‘crisis’ in India which is argued to be far more serious than the better known crisis of farmer suicides. The book dispels many myths that are commonly associated with suicide, and highlights a neglected public health problem. Suicide in the region of Pondicherry is looked at in detail, as well as in the Indian Diaspora. This book is a useful contribution to South Asian Studies, as well as studies in Mental Health and Sociology.
