Making singles in society - alternative in accordance with marriage and families, as new style of life
Abstract
Concept of single is a one of the most important among family and love areas' s
structural forms in our times. This is a one of way deciding about himself by social object
in this aspect. This is a stigma of post-modernity definied as social-cultural formation
with lots of consequences for family, too. Innovation in norms and values'es area which
are post-modernity's differentia specifica, start participation in generating family's concepts.
It is interesting how human needs of affiliation remain unchanged-they are constons-
different start being cultural ways of express these universal needs. Authors try to
give a reconstruction of single's social-cultural figure. They present it in more general
context changes of modernity. Single would be a topos, a dignity of post-modern manifestations.Nuclear family, stereotypes about sex, traditional differences in roles in family
which remain unchanged in social-cultural area generally, begin modernizing from
a reason of single-solitary from decisions exactly, 'solitary' does not mean 'unhappy', but
deciding about their life consciously and evaluate life-elements again. Single engaged by
job-activities, who does not want to be static-but be dynamic-with change's wish and
exhibiting being an object, so individuality, does not want make relationships. He does
not like traditional ways of sex and their roles in relationships, especially. Realized alternative,
start being common, begin subjugating areas of old family's concepts very
bravely. This what yesterday was a priori become an object of contestation and creative
changes. Social-cultural practice of single start mirroring theoretical discourse of postmodernism, become proving reality of theoretical speculation's ambivalence. It comes
clear post-structuralists's opinions-with their banner Foucault's reconstruction of history
of sexuality-are not thought's fun only, but they have real social representations.
Authors are not satisfied from thought's level only. They transfer discourse into reconstruction
of research result's level expediently, showing by this way single's figure
exploited a lot in post-structural philosophies is an object of legal empirical sociology's
discourse.
