Autrefois, dans la partie centrale des Balkans, la formation de families à structure complexe était regardée comme un idéal culturel. Ce qui distingue tout particulièrement la famille complexe des Balkans des autres formes que l'on pouvait rencontrer ailleurs en Europe est son principe de patrilinéarite. Ce type spécifique de famille, que l'on rencontre encore de nos jours, est désigné ici comme 'Balkan joint family' (famille complexe balkanique). Pour le XIXe et le XXe siècle, on connaît assez bien maintenant la structure et le mode de formation de ce type de famille, mais ses origines sont encore un terrain largement inexploré. Cet article propose une réponse possible en suggérant que ce type de famille participe a un modèle culturel ancien, dont les origines seraient liées à une économie pastorale.

Research on the Balkan joint family, often incorrectly generalized aszadruga, shows three striking characteristics. First, although there is an abundance of scholarly literature on this issue, most of it is not linked to general questions about family and household structure in western Europe or even eastern Europe. This is unfortunate because findings are not seen in a broader context and are interpreted in isolation.

The burgeoning scholarship on Western health films stands in stark contrast to the vacuum in the historical conceptualization of Eastern European films. This book develops a nonlinear historical model that revises their unique role in the inception of national cinematography and establishing supranational health security.

Readers witness the revelation of an unknown history concerning how the health films produced in Eastern European countries not only adopted Western patterns of propaganda but actively participated in its formation, especially with regard to those considered "others": Women and the populations of the periphery. The authors elaborate on the long "echo" of the discursive practices introduced by health films within public health propaganda, as well as the attempts to negate and deconstruct such practices by rebellious filmmakers. A wide range of methods, including the analysis of the sociological biographies of filmmakers, the historical reconstruction of public campaigns against diseases and an investigation into the production of health films, contextualizes these films along a multifaceted continuum stretching between the adaptation of global patterns and the cultivation of national authenticities.

The book is aimed at those who study the history of film, the history of public health, Central and Eastern European countries and global history.

When the scientific study of the Black Sea Region began in the late 18th
and early 19th centuries, initially commissioned by adjacent powers such as
the Habsburg and the Russian empires, this terra incognita was not yet
considered part of Europe. The eighteen chapters of this volume show a broad
range of thematic foci and theoretical approaches - the result of the
enormous richness of the European macrocosm and the BSR. The microcosms of
the many different case studies under scrutiny, however, demonstrate the
historical dimension of exchange between the allegedly opposite poles of
`East' and `West' and underscore the importance of mutual influences in the
development of Europe and the BSR.
