Описание: Space and place have become central to analysis of culture and history in the humanities and social sciences. Making Place examines how people engage the material and social worlds of the urban environment via the rhythms of everyday life and how bodily responses are implicated in the making and experiencing of place. The contributors introduce the concept of spatial ethnography, a new methodological approach that incorporates both material and abstract perspectives in the study of people and place, and encourages consideration of the various levels—from the personal to the planetary—at which spatial change occurs. The book's case studies come from Costa Rica, Colombia, India, Austria, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Название: The Border and Its Bodies: The Embodiment of Risk Along the U.S.-Mйxico Line ISBN: 0816539472 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780816539475 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 66530.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The Border and Its Bodies examines the impact of migration from Central America and M xico to the United States on the most basic social unit possible: the human body. It explores the terrible toll migration takes on the bodies of migrants--those who cross the border and those who die along the way--and discusses the treatment of those bodies after their remains are discovered in the desert.
The increasingly militarized U.S.-M xico border is an intensely physical place, affecting the bodies of all who encounter it. The essays in this volume explore how crossing becomes embodied in individuals, how that embodiment transcends the crossing of the line, and how it varies depending on subject positions and identity categories, especially race, class, and citizenship.
Timely and wide-ranging, this book brings into focus the traumatic and real impact the border can have on those who attempt to cross it, and it offers new perspectives on the effects for rural communities and ranchers. An intimate and profoundly human look at migration, The Border and Its Bodies reminds us of the elemental fact that the border touches us all.

Описание: A two-act play based on the legendary Battle of Talikota in 1565 and the circumstances leading up to it. Central to the narrative is the story of the power-hungry `Aliya` Rama Raya, the successful son-in-law of the Vijayanagar emperor Krishna Deva Raya, his overarching ways, and his twisted attempts at political alliances and administrative strategies.
At present, Roma are an integral part of Europe, though they face structural and social inequalities and different forms of exclusion and discrimination. Inward Looking seeks to understand the relationship between Romani identity, performance and migration. Particularly, it studies the idea of ‘Romanipe’ through the prism of the personal accounts of Romani migrants. It also seeks to understand the relationships between the Romani groups in Europe, due to their increased travel and convergence, and predict the effects of migration on (new) Romani consciousness. The findings are based on qualitative data gathered from Romani migrants from three towns in Bulgaria.
