Examination of historical background on injection of mind-altering drugs indicates that self-injection is a relatively young form of drug -taking behavior. Its antiquity is less than 150 years, and its intravenous variant may have as little as sixty years of popularity among illegal drug users. This perspective, combined with data gathered from IVDUs recruited in two projects in Dade County, Florida, concludes that commitment to introducing drugs into the vein is central to the cultural complex surrounding IV drug use. Needle use practices in this context appear to be changeable if intervention is based on clear ethnographic understanding of injection behavior.

Die vergleichende Wahlforschung stellt ein konservatives Wahlverhalten der Frauen fest, US-Untersuchungen finden, daß politisch bewußte Frauen tendenziell links stimmen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird untersucht, ob sich die Linkstendenz der Frauen in Westeuropa im Zusammenhang der Entwicklung von Frauenbewegungen bestätigt. Die empirische Überprüfung der Relation zwischen Geschlecht und Wahlentscheidung (Italien, Niederlande, Bundesrepublik) läßt keine solche Beziehung erkennen, stützt aber die These von größerer Nähe der Frauen zur Religiosität und daraus resultierendem konservativen Wahlverhalten. Weder unter Aspekten der Frauenbewegung noch der Parteien bilden Frauen einen monolithischen Block. (AuD-Hng)

Consequently England during the period of the Interregnum became a significant battleground of ideas when diverse militant and articulate groups struggled for power and dominance.

This action represented the culmination of some forty years of intensified struggle for supremacy between the Stuart dynasty and Parliament. Intermingled with.the constitutional causes were religious, economic, and social factors. A remarkable feature of the English civil war is the point that although both sides suffered from internal dissension, the faction which suffered the 'most from such disputes won the war. After nearly four years of military strife the first phase of the conflict ended when Charles I surrendered himself to the Scots on May 5, 1646. ; N/A
