Abstract:
|
Time is not only a dimension of each social act, but also a resource with high value. This makes time a central concept for social inequality analysis. The key hypothesis of this presentation is: Time is distributed unequal.
For testing this hypothesis, Giddens structuration theory is brought together with time budget data on the empirical side. Giddens theory includes – what only a few sociological theories do – time as a key term. In this presentation, his time-space model of daily activities is used for presenting empirical data on time use. This model is modified in this sense, that main emphasis is not given to “daily time-space paths” for one actor. In the focus are different daily activities and their locations for social classes, women and men, and generations. Also, social classes are divided after gender, and, in another step, after generations.
The German Time Budget survey 2001/2002, a representative cross section survey from the Federal Statistical Office in Germany, is used for empirical calculations. 35. 691 time diaries that cover 24 hours a day of a person (three diaries per person; all household members included with time diaries) are contained in this survey.
This presentation looks on different time sequences of a day (e.g. 8.00-8.30 a.m., weekday) to analyse day-to day activities and their locations. |
