Book Description
Excerpt from The Social Characteristics of Participants in Three Styles of Family Camping Therefore, it appears that remote campers tend to continue in the patterns learned in childhood. Combination campers are most likely per sons who are continuing childhood patterns or who have shifted from a childhood auto camping pattern to a more primitive camping style. Easy access campers are most likely to be persons with no childhood experience in hiking, camping, or other enjoyment of the out-of-doors. In summary, it appears that people neither seek out leisure experiences similar to their present everyday activities, nor do they escape to activities in sharp contrast with their everyday lives. Rather, activities pleasantly familiar to a person in his childhood tend to attract his leisure-time atten tion as an adult. Furthermore, an adult with previous familiarity with the out-of - doors apparently prefers more challenging camping experiences, at least part of the time, than does the person new to the out-oi - doors. Although childhood experiences and present kind of home community are associated with camping style, childhood residence location does not appear to be. Apparently, kind of childhood community is not sufficient evidence of early contact with the out-of - doors for leisure activities. Perhaps the present camping styles reflect attempts to retain the qualities of experience remembered from childhood years. If so, the present children of easy-access campers may very likely adopt a combination or remote camping style when they reach adulthood. The new experience for their parents now would be an old one for the children when they reach adulthood. Further, the old spots shared with their parents may be filling with new and inexperienced recruits whose presence tends to diminish the quality of experience as remembered.

Folk Devils and Moral Panics
Author: Stanley Cohen
Publisher: Taylor & Francis US
ISBN: 9780415610162
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
'Richly documented and convincingly presented' -- New Society Mods and Rockers, skinheads, video nasties, designer drugs, bogus asylum seeks and hoodies. Every era has its own moral panics. It was Stanley Cohen's classic account, first published in the early 1970s and regularly revised, that brought the term 'moral panic' into widespread discussion. It is an outstanding investigation of the way in which the media and often those in a position of political power define a condition, or group, as a threat to societal values and interests. Fanned by screaming media headlines, Cohen brilliantly demonstrates how this leads to such groups being marginalised and vilified in the popular imagination, inhibiting rational debate about solutions to the social problems such groups represent. Furthermore, he argues that moral panics go even further by identifying the very fault lines of power in society. Full of sharp insight and analysis, Folk Devils and Moral Panics is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand this powerful and enduring phenomenon. Professor Stanley Cohen is Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the London School of Economics. He received the Sellin-Glueck Award of the American Society of Criminology (1985) and is on the Board of the International Council on Human Rights. He is a member of the British Academy.
