Louis XIV’s Attitude to the Chinese Rites Controversy
Although Louis XIV’s sponsorship of a French Jesuit presence in China is well known, his attitude to the major dispute over the Chinese rites which engulfed the mission has been barely explored. This article shows that, as the Chinese Rites Controversy reached its peak in Paris and Rome in the years around 1700, Louis XIV’s response was surprisingly inconsistent, reflecting the fact that the two groups of missionaries whose work in east Asia he h…
“A Daily Jolt into Another World”
For much of the twentieth century, most university students who left home to study lived not in university residences but in lodgings with local householders. Despite their critical role in absorbing ever-expanding student numbers, lodgings were regarded with ambivalence by the civic universities. Whilst lodgings fulfilled the practical need for somewhere to live, university authorities were concerned that their conditions were not always conduci…

Banter as transformative practice
This article investigates the multiple interpretations and uses of banter as an inclusive and exclusionary practice amongst competitive youth swimmers in the Southeast of England. As a metacommunicative act, banter is a form of linguistic play that focuses on the ways in which the words are delivered, and the social relationships involved between those engaged in banter. Through an immersive "apprenticeship" within a competitive swimming club fro…

Gender, Rumor, and Religious Polemic in Louis XIV's France
The Chinese Rites Controversy was one of the most contentious issues in the French church at the beginning of the eighteenth century. Nourished with rumors from China, it was predominantly a debate among men, with the exception of an extraordinary intervention by a woman, Paule Payen de Lionne, in 1701. In a public letter to the Jesuits, she used a dispute concerning her missionary son Artus de Lionne to launch a fierce critique of what she saw a…
On the Learning, Transmission, and Embodiment of Swimming's Haptic Grammar
This article develops the concept of 'haptic grammar' to encourage greater scholarly focus on the sensory aspects of bodily motion used to generate movement, knowledge of one's body in an environment, and thus being-in-the-world. It ethnographically examines how swimmers learn specific motions - 'the catch', sculling, hand entry - to illustrate broader questions of how we learn to move our bodies. Focusing on these specific motions emphasises the…

The quality of water
This paper examines tactile sensory dimensions of immersion in water and is based on ethnographic fieldwork amongst competitive youth swimmers in the South East of England. It argues that youth swimmers' perceptions of the qualities of water, in the pools where they train and compete, are sensuous productions of embodied knowledges and enskilled movements developed and refined through their swimming practice. Thus, it adds to the growing anthropo…
Sensory ecologies
Sport is centrally concerned with the human body. Those concerns focus on how bodies move materially in space and in time. In this article, we develop our concept of “Sensory Ecology” to elucidate how one might come to develop and understand the creation of specialist bodily knowledge found in sport. Sensory ecologies are produced through the refinement of enskilled movement of bodily materials in specific spatial and temporal confines. To unders…
Political Resonances in the Motets for Saint Louis Under Louis XIV
This article examines several motets composed to celebrate Saint Louis (Louis IX) in late seventeenth-century France. As praise of Saint Louis overlapped with that of Louis XIV, these pieces offer insights into the interplay between the French baroque sacred repertoire and royal encomium. In their texts and music, the motets reflect shifts linked not just to the ceremonial contexts for which they were written but also to wider political developme…
Balancing the formal and the informal
This paper explores the challenges of everyday practices of co-operation in UK shared housing co-operatives, situated within literatures that stress the relational basis of these practices and the centrality of 'critical associations' to the conduct of everyday life. Shared housing co-operatives, based on mutual ownership and co-residence between unrelated adults, represent a radical departure from both the traditional landlord/tenant model of sh…
Urban singles and shared housing
Across high-income economies, more urbanites live longer on their own, in non-family households, than ever before. Solo dwellers amount to 39%, 28%, 24% and 34% of all households in Europe (Eurosta
The Perraults
Although the Perrault brothers—Jean, Pierre, Claude, Nicolas and Charles—appear frequently in histories of Louis XIV’s France on account of their literary, scientific and architectural pursuits, they have never been studied as a group as thoroughly as in this insightful volume. Oded Rabinovitch places their achievements in context by showing how their careers connected and overlapped. In doing so, he links cultural, intellectual and scientific hi…
Putting up (with) the paying guest
This article explores the guest–host relationship in private lodging arrangements in the UK, a living arrangement that has increased dramatically in recent years in response to escalating housing costs. Utilising data from a UK study of diverse forms of shared housing, and situated within literature on critical hospitality, we first explore the spirit in which hospitality is offered by hosts and the importance of the financial transaction relativ…
Post break-up housing pathways of young adults in England in light of family and friendship-based support
This paper explores the housing pathways of young adults following the breakdown of a first intimate relationship based on co-residence. In particular it explores the frequent recourse to shared housing and returns to the parental home, and how these options may be seen as steps backward, yet also offer opportunities for support. Findings are discussed in the context of the de-standardisation of transitions to adulthood characterised by uncertain…
Observational sketching as method
This paper explores the potential of observational sketching as a social science research tool, informed by our own recent experiments with observational sketching techniques and approaches. We first outline the historical roots of academic sketching and note a recent resurgence of interest in sketching in certain disciplines. We then introduce our own explorations in sketching as method, based on a year-long collaboration between an observationa…
Siblings, fairness and parental support for housing in the UK
Financial support from parents has become critical to the capacity of many single young adults to attain and sustain independent housing in the United Kingdom. Utilising data from a qualitative study of early housing pathways, this paper applies Lüscher’s theory of ambivalence in a context previously unexplored via this framework, analysing how participants talked about competing claims between siblings for finite parental resources in support of…
An Ultramontane Jansenist? Charles Hersent's Panegyric of St Louis (1650)
Viewed with hindsight, the link between Jansenism and Gallican resistance to papal pronouncements can seem inevitable. Before 1653, however, Rome's reluctance to commit itself unambiguously to condemning Jansen's ideas of grace made the idea of gaining papal support conceivable to some of his supporters. This article examines one hitherto ignored moment: the panegyric delivered in Rome by Charles Hersent, whose career in controversy combined ultr…
Social Relationships and Relationships in Context
In this article, we examine post‐accession Poles' shifting identity practices through the lens of their attitudes to other Poles in a high‐density post‐accession Polish migration destination, namely the city of Southampton on England's south coast. We examine the impact of human capital (in this instance, we will focus on their ability to speak English) and the extent of their social capital (focusing on the restrictions based on their communicat…
Competing obligations and the maintenance of physical co-presence
The focus of this article is on individual case studies selected for the purpose of illuminating the experiences of post-accession Polish migrant ‘family lives’ in the United Kingdom (UK). These case studies demonstrate what Morgan (1996) calls the movement of individuals through households and family relationships, simultaneous with the examination of the enlargement of the spaces in which family lives are conducted as a consequence of movement …
Location, Location? A Critical Examination of Patterns and Determinants of Internal Mobility Among Post‐accession Polish Migrants in the UK
This article adds to literatures bridging the divide between internal and international migrations by investigating patterns of internal mobility following the international move of post‐accession Polish migrants to the UK. Our analysis is based on a large‐scale qualitative study carried out among 83 Polish migrants living in urban and rural locations in England and Scotland. We analyse the reasons behind their initial choice of location in the d…

Post-Accession Polish Migrants-Their Experiences of Living in 'Low-Demand' Social Housing Areas in Glasgow
Glasgow is a city well known for bringing together a 'housing need' with a 'housing supply'. Post-accession Poles are the most recent population to fill the 'void' in Glasgow's 'unpopular' and therefore low-demand housing in areas of social deprivation. In this paper we will focus on the intersection of individual paths with institutional projects occurring at specific temporal and spatial locations: through examining the housing-seeking activiti…
Gifts, Loans and Intergenerational Support for Young Adults
Young adults in the UK are increasingly dependent on family support to offset the costs of living independently. This article explores these complex intergenerational exchanges from the perspective of a group of single young adults in their mid-twenties to mid-thirties who had been in receipt of various forms of financial and material support from family members since leaving the parental home. We outline the nature of this support and then consi…

The Management of Confidentiality and Anonymity in Social Research
This article explores the ways in which social researchers manage issues of confidentiality and the contexts in which deliberate and accidental disclosures occur. The data are drawn from a qualitative study of social researchers’ practices in relation to informed consent. It comprised 31 individual interviews and six focus groups as well as invited email responses with researchers working with vulnerable groups or with an interest in research eth…
Widening the gap
Embarking upon a pre‐university gap year is an increasingly popular option among British students. Drawing on Brown et al.’s work on positional conflict theory and the increased importance of the ‘economy of experience’, this paper seeks to explore this growing popularity and argues that the gap year’s enhanced profile raises important questions concerning the processes by which certain groups of young people are able to gain advantage over other…
Anonymisation and visual images
A central ethical issue confronting researchers using visual methods is how to manage the use of identifiable images. Photographic and other visual materials can make the anonymisation of individuals problematic; at the same time many researchers, as well as research participants, view image manipulation as undesirable. Anonymisation is one of a range of ethical concerns that need consideration in relation to the use of identifiable images. Other…
Chasing shadows
Defining network boundaries is a key challenge in social network analysis. In our recent qualitative study of network influences on educational decision-making - based on interviews with 107 individuals from 16 case study networks - the set of members with whom interviews were secured in each case represented only a sub-set of the broader networks from which they were drawn. Following an introduction to our study and an outline of our approach, w…
Single Young Professionals and Shared Household Living
The interface between labour market commitment, shared household living, and the maintenance of couple relationships amongst graduates and young professionals in their twenties and early thirties is explored. Following a discussion of the growth of independent living amongst this group and some of the factors that have led to this trend, evidence is presented from a study of relatively affluent sharers living in the south of England. Perceptions …
Informed consent, gatekeepers and go‐betweens
Gaining informed consent from research participants is widely regarded as central to ethical research practice. This article reports on research which sought to identify contemporary practice in this area amongst researchers working in fields where research participants are often constructed as vulnerable within the research process, and where their potential involvement tends to be mediated by institutional gatekeepers. Drawing on telephone inte…
Research Ethics and Data Quality
Patterns of research governance are changing rapidly in the field of social research. In current debates about these changes one issue of particular concern is the impact that new patterns of research governance will have on the quality of the data collected. The ‘optimistic’ scenario on this issue is that more ethical research practice will lead to better‐quality data, but a more ‘pessimistic’ scenario exists in which the unintended outcome is p…
Researching researchers
There is widespread debate about ethical practice in social research with most social researchers arguing that situational relativist approaches are appropriate for resolving the ethical issues that emerge. In this article, we draw on research conducted on an ESRC-funded study of informed consent in social research to explore the ethical issues that are raised when conducting research with one's peers. The study involved conducting focus groups a…
Choosing This Life
House sharing amongst young adults is often regarded as being of significance only as a short term, transitional arrangement, and is associated with economic constraint. This association is, however, undergoing change, as it is a household form increasingly adopted by young people in professional and managerial occupations. This paper focuses on the experiences of these rather more advantaged sharers, and explores their own accounts of why they l…
Peer-Shared Households, Quasi-Communes and Neo-Tribes
An increasing proportion of single young adults can expect to spend at least some of their 20-something years living in peer-shared households, defined here as households consisting of unrelated individuals living in self-contained houses and apartments. Indeed, many will also find themselves returning to such arrangements after living alone or with a partner. This article explores the nature of the relationships that exist between young people l…
Dignity, happiness and being able to live a 'normal life' in the UK - an examination of post-accession Polish migrants' transnational autobiographical fields
This article examines data from a qualitative study of post-accession Polish migrants living in the UK. We examine themes from our interviews such as ‘dignity’, ‘normality’, ‘happiness’ and the ‘affordability’ and ‘ease’ of life in the UK (compared to Poland). We focus on the autobiographical or intra-personal discursive practices that define what Habib calls migrants' continuing relationship with their ‘homeland’. We draw on Emirbayer and Mische…

Informed Consent and the Research Process
Gaining informed consent from people being researched is central to ethical research practice. There are, however, several factors that make the issue of informed consent problematic, especially in research involving members of groups that are commonly characterised as 'vulnerable' such as children and people with learning disabilities.

Young Adults and Household Formation in the 1990s
This paper provides an overview of recent research and theorising relating to contemporary patterns of household formation amongst British youth. The first part provides a necessarily brief summary of current trends, focusing on both the initial process of leaving home and on the different outcomes of that process. The second part considers the theoretical models which underpin research on household formation, highlighting first the defining char…
Young people, social capital and network‐based educational decision‐making
This paper explores whether and in what ways young people's perceptions and experiences of higher education (HE) can facilitate the transmission within their social networks of social capital both upwardly (from child to parent) and horizontally (from sibling to sibling), and thus can potentially provide bridging capital to family members, especially in families with little or no prior experience of HE. It utilises data from a project that explor…
Network‐based ambivalence and educational decision‐making
Much contemporary theorising on educational decision‐making starts from the premise that the process of decision‐making is a deeply embedded social practice, which is inextricably linked to behaviours, attitudes and dispositions which hold sway within an individual’s social network. Drawing on data from a project focusing on decision‐making amongst non‐participants in higher education (HE) who are nonetheless ‘potentially recruitable’ to HE, this…

Whatever happened to TVEI's equal opportunities policy
The funding criteria for the Technical and Vocational Education Initiative included a high‐profile commitment to equal opportunities for boys and girls. By including such a commitment, the architects of TVEI implicitly assumed that it was possible for TVEI to act as an agent of change with respect to gender divisions within schooling (and, indeed, beyond). This paper firstly considers whether TVEI was actually setting itself a theoretically impos…
Sociological Research Methods in Context
This book seeks to introduce students to the challenges of 'real life' social research through a detailed consideration of eight recent empirical studies. Designed to complement existing introductory methods texts, it emphasises the importance of context in understanding and interpreting both the practice and 'product' of empirical research. The book focuses on research from eight key sub-areas of sociology, making it a useful secondary text for …

Youth/Adolescence
Youth and adolescence are terms which are often used interchangeably to refer to a phase of the life course between childhood and adulthood, yet are often positioned as contrasting approaches within academic discourse. Sociologists use the term youth to refer to a socially constructed life phase which is not only culturally specific, but which is also the product of particular historical conjunctures. Within this approach, youth is broadly constr…

Lost in Transnationalism
This paper compares and contrasts some of the conceptual language used to engage with the realm of family and personal life within the parallel fields of transnational family studies (TFS) and British family studies (BFS). Key concepts which are now widely referenced within BFS - such as 'family practices', 'family display', 'families of choice' and 'connectedness' - have not been widely drawn upon within TFS. Instead, TFS scholars are developing…
