Discrimination and Toleration: New Perspectives
ISBN: 9789041117113 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Discrimination on the basis of race, gender or other ascribed group affiliations or individual identities is an all too well-known phenomenon. International instruments are invoked and refined to alter this situation, but often to little avail. In the present volume, authors from across the globe explore the nature and forms of discrimination and seek to establish a new conceptual ground for addressing the issue.
Toleration is often advocated as a remedy for discriminatory practices. In contrast to tolerance, which is seen as an attitude, toleration implies an active engaging of...

Climate Change and Human Mobility: Global Challenges to the Social Sciences
ISBN: 9781107028210 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 'The greatest single impact of climate change could be on human migration', stated the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 1990. Since then there has been considerable concern about the large-scale population movements that might take place because of climate change. This book examines emerging patterns of human mobility in relation to climate change, drawing on a multidisciplinary approach, including anthropology and geography. It addresses both larger, general questions and concrete local cases, where the link between climate change and human mobility is manifest and demands...

Siting Culture: The Shifting Anthropological Object
ISBN: 9780415150019 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Culture has been subject to critical debate in anthropology during the past decade and this is related to a shift in emphasis from the bounded local culture to transnational cultural flows. At the same time that cultural mobility is being emphasized, the people studied by anthropologists are recasting culture as a place of belonging as they construct local identities within global fields of relations.
So far, much of the analysis of the role of place in culture has been carried out at a level of theoretical debate. Siting Culture argues that it is only through rich ethnographic...

Anthropology and Nature
ISBN: 9781138952867 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. On the basis of empirical studies, this book explores nature as an integral part of the social worlds conventionally studied by anthropologists. The book may be read as a form of scholarly "edgework," resisting institutional divisions and conceptual routines in the interest of exploring new modalities of anthropological knowledge making. The present interest in the natural world is partly a response to large-scale natural disasters and global climate change, and to a keen sense that nature matters matters to society at many levels, ranging from the microbiological and genetic framing...On the basis of empirical studies, this book explores nature as an integral part of the social worlds conventionally studied by anthropologists.

The Social Life of Climate Change Models: Anticipating Nature
ISBN: 9780415628587 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Drawing on a combination of perspectives from diverse fields, this volume offers an anthropological study of climate change and the ways in which people attempt to predict its local implications, showing how the processes of knowledge making among lay people and experts are not only comparable but also deeply entangled. Through analysis of predictive practices in a diversity of regions affected by climate change - including coastal India, the Cook Islands, Tibet, and the High Arctic, and various domains of scientific expertise and policy making such as ice core drilling, flood risk...

A Passage to Anthropology: Between Experience and Theory
ISBN: 9780415129237 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The postmodernist critique of Objectivism, Realism and Essentialism has somewhat shattered the foundations of anthropology, seriously questioning the legitimacy of studying others. By confronting the critique and turning it into a vital part of the anthropological debate, A Passage to Anthropology provides a rigorous discussion of central theoretical problems in anthropology that will find a readership in the social sciences and the humanities. It makes the case for a renewed and invigorated scholarly anthropology with extensive reference to recent anthropological debates in Europe...

Nature and Policy in Iceland 1400-1800: An Anthropological Analysis of History and Mentality
ISBN: 9780198277286 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this ambitious study, Kirsten Hastrup offers an analysis of Icelandic Society from 1400 to 1800--a period of remarkable social disintegration and technological decline. Juxtaposing the economic, social, and political orders with concepts of humanity, fate, and nature, her study shows how the dissolution of the ancient order must be attributed to internal factors of culture and mentality, as well as to the external ones of natural catastrophe and commercial exploitation. The book ends with an invaluable analysis of the nature of causation in history.

Other Histories
ISBN: 9780415061230 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. After a decade of historical anthropology, the discipline seems to be thoroughly historicized. This implies not only that the historical dimension of other cultures has become an integrated part of any anthropological inquiry, but also that the different ways of producing history have become important considerations. Using historical and ethnographic material, mainly from Europe, Other Histories examines the nature of history and its importance to anthropological study. The apparently Eurocentric perspective of this book actually serves the purpose of dismantling the unity and progress of...

Social Experience and Anthropological Knowledge
ISBN: 9780415106580 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Anthropology poses an explicit challenge to standard notions of scientific knowledge. It claims to produce genuine insights into the workings of culture in general on the basis of individual social experience in the field. Social Experience and Anthropological Knowledge traces the process from the ethnographic experience to the analytical results, showing how fieldwork enables the ethnographer to arrive at an understanding, not only of culture and society, but also of the processes by which cultures and societies are transformed. The contributors challenge the distinction between subjectivity...
