Caribbean Journeys: An Ethnography of Migration and Home in Three Family Networks
ISBN: 9780822339946 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Caribbean Journeys" is an ethnographic analysis of the cultural meaning of migration and home in three families of West Indian background that are now dispersed throughout the Caribbean, North America, and Great Britain. Moving migration studies beyond its current focus on sending and receiving societies, Karen Fog Olwig makes migratory family networks the locus of her analysis. For the people whose lives she traces, being "Caribbean" is not necessarily rooted in ongoing visits to their countries of origin, or in ethnic communities in the receiving countries, but rather in family narratives...

Children's Places: Cross-Cultural Perspectives
ISBN: 9780415296410 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Children's Places examines the ways in which children and adults, from their different vantage-points in society, negotiate the 'proper place' of children in both social and spatial terms. It looks at some of the recognised constructions of children, including perspectives from cultures that do not distinguish children as a distinct category of people, as well as examining contexts for them, from schools and kindergartens to inner cities and war-zones. The result is a much-needed insight into the notions of inclusion and exclusion, the placement and displacement of children within...

Global Culture, Island Identity
ISBN: 9783718606245 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Looking at the development of cultural identity in the global context, this text uses the approach of historical anthropology. It examines the way in which the West Indian Community of Nevis, has, since the 1600s, incorporated both African and European cultural elements into the framework of social life, to create an Afro-Caribbean culture that was distinctive and yet geographically unbounded - a "global culture." The book takes as its point of departure the processes of cultural interaction and reflectivity. It argues that the study of cultural continuity should be guided by the notion of...
