What defines cooking as cooking, and why does cooking matter to the understanding of society, cultural change and everyday life? This book explores these questions by proposing a new theory of the meaning of cooking as a willingness to put oneself and one’s meals at risk on a daily basis. Richly illustrated with examples from the author’s anthropology fieldwork in Greece, Bigger Fish to Fry proposes a new approach to the meaning of cooking and how the study of cooking can reshape our understanding of social processes more generally.

Описание: "An unparalleled study of a transforming and privatizing Russian health care system, of the promises and perils of prescriptive programs for change, that points to the areas that need change in the change-makers themselves. . . . part of a larger story about the inherent dangers of current neoliberal economic transformations of fragile post-socialist social welfare arrangements. . . . "Rivkin-Fish takes the reader into a new understanding of the fragile and tense relations between state and market transitions, and into the deep and largely silent struggle for gender and health equity in Russia." —Adriana Petryna, author of Life Exposed: Biological Citizens after Chernobyl In the first decade after the collapse of the Soviet Union, deteriorating public health indicators such as below-replacement fertility and high rates of sexually transmitted diseases, abortions, birth traumas, and maternal mortality raised acute anxieties about Russia's future. This study documents the efforts of global and local experts, and ordinary Russian women in St. Petersburg, to explain Russia's maternal health problems and devise reforms to solve them. Examining both official health projects and informal daily practices, Michele Rivkin-Fish draws ethnographic and theoretical insights about the contested processes of interpreting and managing neo-liberal transitions in Russia and explores the challenges of bringing anthropological insights to public health interventions for women's empowerment.
Название: Achieving Blue Growth: Building Vibrant Fisheries and Aquaculture Communities ISBN: 9251307717 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789251307717 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 19410.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Fisheries and aquaculture support the livelihoods of millions of people around the world. In rural and coastal communities they often play a key role in a society's culture and identity. Fish is also a healthy and nutritious food, with the potential to feed our growing planet. But as the population grows, the demand for fish rises, and our natural resources are increasingly stressed. Sustainable management and development is crucial to preserving these resources for future generations. FAO's Blue Growth Initiative emphasizes the three pillars of sustainable development – social, economic, and environmental – so that fisheries and aquaculture contribute to the 2030 Agenda Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Since the mid-nineteenth century, agricultural development and fisheries management in northern Japan have been profoundly shaped by how people within and beyond Japan have compared Hokkaido's landscapes to those of other places, as part of efforts to make the new Japanese nation-state more legibly "modern." In doing so, they engaged in non-conforming modes of thinking that reached out to diverse places, including the American West and southern Chile. Today, the comparisons made by Hokkaido fishing industry professionals, scientists, and Ainu indigenous groups between the island's forests, fields, and waters and those of other places around the world continue to dramatically affect the region's approaches to environmental management and its physical landscapes. In this far-ranging ethnography, Heather Anne Swanson shows how this traffic in ideas shapes the course of Hokkaido's development, its fish, and the lives of people on and beyond the island while structuring trade dynamics, political economy, and multispecies relations in watersheds around the globe.
