“…This position was also mentioned by the sampled students but individually, feelings of attachment and the moral obligation to be close to the family restrict the agency of some of the sampled individuals, and predominantly women. However, my findings confirm that open borders, cultural exchanges, liberal values, and individualism increasingly compete with conservative views and traditional gender models at home (Slany, 2018) and are likely to lead to social changes among the interviewed young, well-educated Poles (Siara, 2013). This increasing outward orientation and the unfavourable assessment of the political climate in Poland could be one of the reasons why many young Poles talk about politics but are often reluctant to involve themselves personally (Jakubowska and Kaniasty, 2015).…”

This paper investigates the role of gender in shaping attitudes towards the European Union (EU) among young people living in Polish cities – the so-called ‘winners of European integration’. Previously, little attention has been given to gender as an influence on views on the EU. Most studies apply the gender-based perspective on Western Europe, while Central and Eastern European countries remain understudied. Based on theories on public opinion, I employ a mixed-methods approach, conducting a survey among 815 MA students living in Polish cities, followed by 27 semi-structured interviews. This analysis of gender-related attitudes towards the EU offers nuanced insights into transitions within post-communist societies. My findings posit that the sampled well-educated women are more likely to support EU integration than men. Education, gender-based individual cost-benefit analyses, and the perceptions of national politics are possible explanations for the positive attitudes towards the EU among the sampled women.

“…A more nuanced approach is needed to understand how these women combine their domestic roles with paid employment. As mixed marriages are increasingly common among emigrant women from Latvia as well as among Polish women (Kl , ave and Šūpule 2017;Slany 2018), it would be useful to scrutinize if there are any important differences in the composition and lifestyle of families in Latvia and abroad, and how this impacts perceived discrimination. Moreover, the comparison of perceived discrimination among emigrant women with a tertiary education from Latvia with women with a tertiary education in Latvia would provide a deeper understanding of the phenomenon.…”

The aim of this paper is to answer the question of what factors lead to an increase in perceived discrimination in the workplace among highly educated Latvian women abroad. Although highly educated migrant women are privileged with regard to education, nonetheless, they face discrimination, lower wages, inferior working conditions, de-skilling and brain waste while working abroad. Based on the discussion on the relationship between sociocultural integration and discriminatory practices or perceived discrimination, and two competing theoretical propositions regarding the effects of integration on perceptions and experiences of discrimination, the article tests if attachment to the host country is related to perceived discrimination at work. The data source used for the analysis is a subsample of a quantitative survey of Latvian emigrants. The subsample (n = 2332) includes Latvian women with a tertiary education who are first-generation emigrants from Latvia and who were working at the time of the survey. Results from binary logistic regression analyses reveal that a low attachment to the host country, financial difficulties coping with daily expenses, problems with recognition of an education certificate and lack of a written contract with the employer increase the likelihood of highly educated Latvian women abroad to claim unfair treatment in the workplace.

“…Lain halnya pada studi keluarga di Polandia, yaitu keluarga tetap merupakan nilai yang sangat penting dan tidak berubah selama periode 1990-2015. Penelitian tersebut menunjukkan bahwa wanita yang bekerja jauh dari rumahnya merupakan ibu jarak jauh untuk anak-anaknya yang juga disebut dengan matriarki manajerial (White, Grabowska, Kaczmarczyk, & Slany, 2018).…”

“…Fenomena tersebut tidak hanya terjadi di Polandia, di beberapa negara dimana para ibu yang bekerja jauh dari rumahnya termasuk penelitian di Norwegia, menunjukkan bahwa pembagian peran berdasarkan gender tidak menimbulkan ketegangan dan konflik (White et al, 2018). Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa di negara Polandia dan Norwegia, modernisasi dan perkembangan ekonomi pasar serta emansipasi perempuan tidak terlalu mempengaruhi keberlangsungan fungsi keluarga secara umum karena masyarakatnya masih memegang teguh nilai-nilai keluarga.…”

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study is to determine the transformation or change in the shape and function of the family in Mekarwangi Village. The background of this research is the occurrence of temporary transfer or mobility on the grounds of seeking knowledge or working elsewhere far from the village. The research method used is a qualitative method with data collection techniques using observation and interviews. The analysis uses structural functional theory and symbolic interaction theory. His findings show that the shape and function of the family undergoes a change but is not permanent. The conclusion of this study shows that there is a change in the form and function of the family in the Mekarwangi Village community due to the temporary transfer or mobility of family members, but the changes are temporary or not permanent due to the strong ties of kinship in the nuclear family and extended family. The structure of the family may change but the function of the family does not change because even though they do not live in the same place, the function of love, education, religious and economic functions can still be carried out with long-distance interactions using communication tools which are now easy and fast
