Elektronická kniha - autor Lubomír Mlčoch, 194 stran, česky Monografie Ekonomie rodiny v proměnách času, institucí a hodnot je rozsáhlou studií institucionální ekonomie a křesťanské sociální etiky, která nabízí komplexní pohled na instituci rodiny ve společnosti. Popisuje ekonomii rodiny v její dlouhodobé dezintegraci, kdy byly postupně všechny funkce rodiny předávány trhu. Komparace jednotlivých modelů začíná u námi opuštěného modelu rodiny v reálném socialismu a pokračuje zkoumáním rodinné politiky Anglie, Spojených států amerických, Skandinávie, Německa, Francie a dalších evropských zemí. Ze srovnání a hodnocení dosažených výsledků rodinných politik vychází jako relativně nejuspokojivější model francouzský, nicméně i zde – jako všude v euroatlantickém okruhu – vyvstává potřeba řešit selhávání systémů, jež mají poskytovat zabezpečení na stáří.

Mnoha příklady autoři na bohatém historickém, etnografickém a antropologickém materiálu ukazují, že bolest je tvárný kulturní jev, jelikož byla a zůstává v různých kulturách pojímána, využívána, dopřávána či odmítána. Seznamují s rozmanitými podobami trestu a mučení, ale rovněž ukazují, že bolest bývala součástí iniciačních rituálů, a zkoumají, zda musí být bolest nezbytně součástí lidského zrození. Zavádějí nás také mezi příznivce moderního primitivismu a do komunity BDSM, kteří mají k bolesti kladný přístup. Kniha volně navazuje na předcházející tituly Tělo (2014) a Tělo 2.0 (2017).
