IOL Cape Argus News<\/em><\/a> wrote a piece about Elena Moore<\/a>\u2019s (Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Cape Town) inaugural lecture titled Who Cares? The Directions of State\u2013Family Relationships in Changing Times<\/em>. Moore urges society to rethink the burden of care and argues that the work of care is often invisible. With a team of 40 researchers spanning across Ireland, South Africa, Botswana, Namibia and Malawi, Moore explores how families, government, and communities share the responsibility of care. In South Africa, Moore\u2019s team found that there are care grant opportunities, but there are also major barriers in the application process. \u201cWe all want good care,\u201d Moore said. \u201cBut we also want just care relations.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Abdelilah Farah (Moroccan Sociologist) wrote a commentary piece for the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace<\/em><\/a> explaining how Morocco’s Gen Z is developing a new protest culture. The members of Generation Z are mobilizing in an age of rapid technological expansion where they have \u201cdeveloped their political consciousness within a globalized digital environment.\u201d They are departing from traditional modes of protest expression and drawing on cultural influences such as anime, video games, and contemporary music. The commentary explains that \u201cthe digital protests of Morocco\u2019s Generation Z can be understood as primarily cultural rather than purely political acts.\u201d Generation Z  maintains a dual consciousness of being \u201cglobally connected yet locally grounded in experiences of hardship.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In an article for The Conversation<\/em><\/a>, Adam Coutts<\/a> (Research Fellow in the Department of Sociology at the University of Cambridge) argues that the U.K. government\u2019s new action plan Protecting What Matters<\/em>\u2013which centers social cohesion\u2013is weak and vague. Coutts explains that the \u201cplan frames division through religion, identity and Islamophobia, which are outcomes and proxies, not root causes.\u201d He offers a better framework centering \u201ccommunity resilience: the measurable capacity of neighbourhoods to absorb shocks, resist divisive narratives and recover from crises.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
