Neoliberalism as Exception: Mutations in Citizenship and Sovereignty
ISBN: 9780822337362 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Neoliberalism is commonly viewed as an economic doctrine that seeks to limit the scope of government. Some consider it a form of predatory capitalism with adverse effects on the Global South. In this groundbreaking work, Aihwa Ong offers an alternative view of neoliberalism as an extraordinarily malleable technology of governing that is taken up in different ways by different regimes, be they authoritarian, democratic, or communist. Ong shows how East and Southeast Asian states are making exceptions to their usual practices of governing in order to position themselves to compete in the global...

Buddha Is Hiding: Refugees, Citizenship, the New America
ISBN: 9780520238244 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 333 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Fleeing the murderous Pol Pot regime, Cambodian refugees arrive in America as at once the victims and the heroes of America's misadventures in Southeast Asia; and their encounters with American citizenship are contradictory as well. Service providers, bureaucrats, and employers exhort them to be self-reliant, individualistic, and free, even as the system and the culture constrain them within terms of ethnicity, race, and class. Buddha Is Hiding tells the story of Cambodian Americans experiencing American citizenship from the bottom-up. Based on extensive fieldwork in Oakland and San...

Their differentiation between Chinese, Indian, and Malay DNA makes fungible Singapore's ethnic-stratified databases that come to...

Ungrounded Empires: The Cultural Politics of Modern Chinese Transnationalism
ISBN: 9780415915434 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the last two decades, Chinese transnationalism has become a distinctive domain within the new "flexible" capitalism emerging in the Asia-Pacific region. Ungrounded Empires maps this domain as the intersection of cultural politics and global capitalism, drawing on recent ethnographic research to critique the impact of late capitalism's institutions--flexibility, travel, subcontracting, multiculturalism, and mass media--upon transnational Chinese subjectives. Interweaving anthropology and cultural studies with interpretive political economy, these...

Flexible Citizenship: The Cultural Logics of Transnationality
ISBN: 9780822322696 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Few recent phenomena have proved as emblematic of our era, and as little understood, as globalization. Are nation-states being transformed by globalization into a single globalized economy? Do global cultural forces herald a postnational millennium? Tying ethnography to structural analysis, "Flexible Citizenship" explores such questions with a focus on the links between the cultural logics of human action and on economic and political processes within the Asia-Pacific, including the impact of these forces on women and family life.
Explaining how intensified travel, communications, and mass... Few recent phenomena have proved as emblematic of our era, and as little understood, as globalization. Are nation-states being transformed by globaliz...

Everyday life in China is increasingly shaped by a novel mix of neoliberal and socialist elements, of individual choices and state objectives. This combination of self-determination and socialism from afar has incited profound changes in the ways individuals think and act in different spheres of society. Covering a vast range of daily life from homeowner organizations and the users of Internet cafes to self-directed professionals and informed consumers the essays in Privatizing China create a compelling picture of the burgeoning awareness of self-governing within the postsocialist...
