ISBN: 9780415229081 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 'Community' is so overused both in everyday language as well as in scholarly work that it could easily be dismissed as a truism. However, the persistence of the term itself shows that the idea continues to resonate powerfully in our daily lives, ethnographic accounts as well as theoretical analyses. This book returns a timely and concerted anthropological gaze to community as part of a broader consideration of contemporary circumstances of social affiliation and solidarity.

In this follow up to their widely read earlier volume, "The Trouble with Community," Vered Amit and Nigel Rapport ask: 'Do notions of community remain central to our sense of who we are, in the dislocating context of globalization, or can we see beyond community closures to a human whole?'
This volume explores the variable nature of contemporary sociality. It focuses on the ethical, organizational and emotional claims and opportunities sought or fashioned for mobilizing and evading social collectivities in a world of mobile subjects. Here is an examination of the tensions and interactions...

The Trouble With Community: Anthropological Reflections On Movement, Identity And Collectivity
ISBN: 9780745317465 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. 'Community' is one of social science's longest-standing concepts. The assumption, of much social science, has been that it is in communities -- and to communities -- that human individuals, as social and cultural beings, belong. Communities are said to embody that interactive environment from which individuals' identities and senses of self derive, and in which they continue to dwell. The trouble with 'community' is that this is not necessarily so; the personal social networks of individuals' actual experience crosscut collective categories, situations and institutions. Communities can prove...

Young Men in Uncertain Times
ISBN: 9781782383123 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Anthropology is particularly well suited to explore the contemporary predicament in the coming of age of young men. Its grounded and comparative empiricism provides the opportunity to move beyond statistics, moral panics, or gender stereotypes in order to explore specific aspects of life course transitions, as well as the similar or divergent barriers or opportunities that young men in different parts of the world face. Yet, effective contextualization and comparison cannot be achieved by looking at male youths in isolation. This volume undertakes to contextualize male youths' circumstances...

Mobility and Cosmopolitanism: Complicating the Interaction Between Aspiration and Practice
ISBN: 9781138200531 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In academic descriptions of cosmopolitanism, one particularly important distinction often recurs. Specifically, scholars have been concerned to distinguish between cosmopolitanism as a set of mundane practices and/or competences on the one hand and cosmopolitanism as a cultivated form of consciousness or moral aspiration on the other. For anthropologists whose ethnographic studies reveal many different expressions of cosmopolitanism, this distinction between aspiration and practice can often be quite ambiguous. This book therefore brings together five contributions from... In academic descriptions of cosmopolitanism, one particularly important distinction often recurs.

This book addresses a continuing effort within anthropology to interrogate sociality.Using case studies from North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, the contributors examine a wide range of topics. Covering everything from studies of childhood and family relations to patterns of movement for tourism, work, and religious...
