Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Paddy Summerfield's Home Movie tells the oldest story, the saddest story, a story that includes the story-teller. It is the Fall of Man, falling from innocence into exile, a dark world of claustrophobic interiors, of low life bars and stained streets, of casual fornication in shabby bed and breakfast rooms.It is the fall from grace into forbidden spaces, where secrets fester behind closed doors and weary eyes. And it is a fall into nightmare and psychosis, where the self, in sickness, peoples the world with terrors. These are squalid scenes, such as Dostoevsky might have recognised, expressing the madness and obsession of those imprisoned there. Even looking at such a world, at such pictures, feels transgressive.Home Movie leads us into darkness, but the journey is always a search, suggested by the final pictures moving away from corrosive indulgences and pain towards enlightenment. The last sequence starts with hands praying, in a gesture of remorse and contrition. Then the camera flashes in a dusty mirror, prefiguring the moment of peace when a sunset ray of evening light pierces that garden at dusk.Oxford-based, Paddy Summerfield trained at Guildford School of Art in the Photography and the Film departments. Photographs he took in 1967, when still a first year student, were published in Album, and spreads in Creative Camera received encouraging recognition. His work has been shown in many galleries, including the ICA, The Barbican, The Serpentine Gallery, The Photographers Gallery, MOMA, Oxford) and is in the collections of the Arts Council and of the V&A, as well as in numerous private collections. His first book, Mother And Father (2014. Dewi Lewis Publishing) was widely acclaimed, and included in several of the Best Photobooks of The Year lists. The British seaside, where sunlight can give way to rainy pavements, and overcast skies. And here we all are: children, parents, babies, teenagers, people of all ages sharing the magic of the coast. Families, couples and crowds, or isolated and alone; bored or lost in thought, dozing or daydreaming, caught up in play or watching sky and sea.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The term family policy refers to social programs, laws, and public directives, which are designed to promote marriages, reproduction, and raising children. These policies also ensure child protection, and child and spousal support, and seek to resolve differences between work and family. Family policies are usually laid down by the state but employers or voluntary organizations may also establish them. The state comprises the legislature and government that creates laws and policies along with the agencies that are mandated and financed to enforce them, such as child welfare agencies. Most of the family-focused policy initiatives are related to marriage incentives, family caregiving across lifespan, and the care and support of children. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the dynamics of family policy. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
