{"title":"‘It happens in the best families’: gender and family ideologies in Jordanian family-related proverbs","authors":"Doaa K. Riziq, Hana O. Khalil","doi":"10.1080/04308778.2023.2250598","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/04308778.2023.2250598","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTThis study discusses gender and family-related proverbs in Jordanian Arabic (JA). It employs Hofstede’s dimensions of culture, especially the following: power distance, masculinity-femininity, and individualism-collectivism. These concepts help interpret culturally specific meanings in these short sayings. The data contain 100 JA proverbs. They are analysed in light of Hofstede’s model to identify the values inherent in ideas of family, power distribution between family members and gender practices. With reference to literature, the analysis reveals similarities with other cultures in some socio-cultural norms. The study suggests that patriarchal values and norms are widespread across cultures and that proverbs reveal this ideology.KEYWORDS: CulturecollectivismfemininityHofstede’s modelindividualismmasculinitypatriarchy Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1.

It examines the work of the Galway Hooker Sailing Club and their restoration of one boat, known as Loveen. By contextualizing the Club’s work within a living heritage framework, it advocates for an ecomuseum as an interpretative approach. Ecomuseology, a dynamic concept, focuses on preserving local cultural heritage and promoting sustainable development across social, environmental, and economic dimensions. This study combines desk research with fieldwork, including interviews with Sailing Club members.","PeriodicalId":51989,"journal":{"name":"Folk Life-Journal of Ethnological Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59384419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
