The specific objective of our project was to discern how 20\u0000young professionals from Belgrade (Serbia), whom we interviewed during the\u0000curfew, encountered, re-organized, and eventually re-settled into their common,\u0000everyday spaces and routines, while the virus was spreading in the background.\u0000Our examination first seeks to register how the distorted relationality of humans\u0000with a non-human entity – which the virus is – became distilled into everyday\u0000objectivity. More profoundly, we intended to seek understanding of what\u0000alternations the possibility of getting infected were associated with common,\u0000everyday arrangements, and how the actors pursued hygienic “purification” as\u0000a principal task. In this sense, we managed to unveil that – albeit this interplay\u0000with an invisible and rather mysterious non-human entity involved a number\u0000of confusing moments – the latter was ultimately stabilized within a specific\u0000evaluative and cognitive format that dictated the former’s actions. Being highly\u0000appreciative of domestic familiarity and intending to quite reflexively purify\u0000potentially contaminated zones and objects, our respondents also pursued\u0000a specific moral frame. In conclusion, we underline how these “purifying”\u0000actions were substantially guided by a desire to maintain the domestic order of\u0000familiarity and immediate care.","PeriodicalId":42178,"journal":{"name":"Corvinus Journal of Sociology and Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44213284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Changing life circumstances and daily routines, job losses, \u0000an uncertain existence, etc. make people’s lives more difficult. The COVID-19 \u0000outbreak is likely to have a notable impact on student life as well, as the latter \u0000have had to face many challenges (Sahu 2020) such as studying via e-learning \u0000methods, online exams, possibly losing their jobs, and financial problems (such \u0000as paying tuition fees). International students have moved back to their homeland \u0000or live in an isolated way in student hostels, maintaining social distance far \u0000away from their families and close friends. So far, only a few studies have been carried out to analyze how COVID-19 has affected students’ lives (Sahu 2020, \u0000Wenjun et al. 2020, Wong et al. 2007). \u0000Four Hungarian universities – Corvinus University of Budapest,8 \u0000 the \u0000University of Debrecen, the University of Miskolc, and the University of \u0000Szeged – participated in the COVID-19 International Student Well-Being Study \u0000(C19 ISWS) (Van de Velde et al. 2020, Buffel et al. forthcoming), organized \u0000and conducted by the University of Amsterdam (UA) to examine the effects of \u0000COVID-19 on student life, involving 27 countries. The research objectives (RO) \u0000are the following (Van de Velde et al. 2020:1-2.): \u0000RO 1: Assess how the living conditions (physical and socioeconomic status) and \u0000workload of higher education students changed during the COVID-19 outbreak. \u0000RO 2: Assess how changes in living conditions and workload are related to \u0000stress levels among higher education students during the COVID-19 outbreak. \u0000RO 3: Assess how changes in living conditions, workload, and stress levels \u0000relate to well-being, mental health, and health behavior among higher education \u0000students during the COVID-19 outbreak. \u0000RO 4: Assess how the associations described in RO 3 are mediated by stressors \u0000(fear of infection, boredom, frustration, inadequate information, etc.), social \u0000support, and COVID-19-related knowledge during the pandemic outbreak. \u0000RO 5: Assess the variation in well-being and mental health among university \u0000students across participating universities and countries. \u0000RO 5: Assess how the cross-university and cross-country variation in wellbeing and mental health in higher education students may be related to varying \u0000(a) university-level, and (2) national policy contexts.","PeriodicalId":42178,"journal":{"name":"Corvinus Journal of Sociology and Social Policy","volume":"11 1","pages":"163-170"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46557008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results confirmed the society in Slovakia prefers conventional medicine to complementary and alternative in case of diseases. Complementary and alternative medicine is more used to reduce the symptoms associated with a disease or eliminate the side effects of conventional medicine.","PeriodicalId":42178,"journal":{"name":"Corvinus Journal of Sociology and Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43309903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digital platforms have brought together strangers with under-utilized capacities and assets with those who need them without looking for ownership. The radius of trust which was initially confined to family, friends and local communities; now encompasses strangers who speak no common language and who live oceans apart. Trust driven by Digital Identity (DI) and Trust and Reputation Information (TRI) have enabled what was considered as improbable or even impossible some years ago. Further expansion and deepening of trust, based on new technologies combined with international legal framework, has the potential to rewrite the apparatus of modern capitalism and societal values. Civil society and governments need to engage on this issue to guide them to a direction most beneficial for the society. However, the current extraordinary situation due to the Corona Virus pandemic, coupled with foreseeable tendencies for complete digital control, is likely to have far-reaching impact on the future development of sharing economy.","PeriodicalId":42178,"journal":{"name":"Corvinus Journal of Sociology and Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49575645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
