Every man for himself : Gender, Norms and Survival in Maritime Disasters
- 2012
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Since the sinking of the Titanic, there has been a widespread belief that the social norm of ‘women and children first’ gives women a survival advantage over men in maritime disasters, and that captains and crew give priority to passengers. We analyze a database of 18 maritime disasters spanning three centuries, covering the fate of over 15,000 individuals of more than 30 nationalities. Our results provide a new picture of maritime disasters. Women have a distinct survival disadvantage compared to men. Captains and crew survive at a significantly higher rate than passengers. We also find that the captain has the power to enforce normative behavior, that the gender gap in survival rates has declined, that women have a larger disadvantage in British shipwrecks, and that there seems to be no association between duration of a disaster and the impact of social norms. Taken together, our findings show that behavior in life-and-death situation is best captured by the expression ‘Every man for himself’.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Since the sinking of the Titanic, there has been a widespread belief that the social norm of "women and children first" (WCF) gives women a survival advantage over men in maritime disasters, and that captains and crew members give priority to passengers. We analyze a database of 18 maritime disasters spanning three centuries, covering the fate of over 15,000 individuals of more than 30 nationalities. Our results provide a unique picture of maritime disasters. Women have a distinct survival disadvantage compared with men. Captains and crew survive at a significantly higher rate than passengers. We also find that: the captain has the power to enforce normative behavior; there seems to be no association between duration of a disaster and the impact of social norms; women fare no better when they constitute a small share of the ship's complement; the length of the voyage before the disaster appears to have no impact on women's relative survival rate; the sex gap in survival rates has declined since World War I; and women have a larger disadvantage in British shipwrecks. Taken together, our findings show that human behavior in life-and-death situations is best captured by the expression "every man for himself."

Codul lui Eminescu : Titan, demon si geniu in opera poetica a lui M. Eminescu
- 2010
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- Titan, Demon and Genius in the Poetical Work of Mihai Eminescu is a book that furthers on the interpretation of the most representative Eminescu’s poems and also of his lyrical theatre. Besides, a special chapter is dedicated to the cultural context of the second half of the 19th century and another one records the literary works inspired by Eminescu’s works and personality throughout the 20th century.The research is realized with comparative methods, strategy that involved tackling and solving numerous translation problems when parallels were drawn to American and English romanticist works.Structurally, the book is founded on a three-level approach. The main intention was to highlight the evolution of triad: the demon’s fury and revolt, mostly set among narcissistic coordinates, are re-valued with the titanic character in the fight for public welfare and for spiritual evolution of the human species. Contrary to those opinions that apprehended genius as a defeated, exhausted titan, I tried to demonstrate that this stage represents the climax in the intellectual ascension of Eminescu’s triadic character. The genius’s involvement is obvious in The Dramatic Dodecameron, where Eminescu shapes the matrix of a national mythology founded on Dacian and Muşatinic bases. The literary analyses are constantly supported by concepts and philosophical theories that intersected the writer’s encyclopaedic preoccupations. Of crucial importance was the relief given to Eminescu’s gnoseological connections with alchemy, theology, and with the diverse gnoses. All these influences and personal developments offer universal radiation to a creativity that moved from the exotic romanticism to the hyper-stylized baroque, and up to the ascetic and perfectly balanced classicism.
