Kinship in Action: Self and Group
ISBN: 9780131844841 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For courses in Social Organization, Kinship, and Cultural Ecology.
Kinship has made a come-back in Anthropology. Not only is there a line of noted, general, introductory works and readers in the topic, but theoretical discussions have been stimulated both by technological changes in mechanisms of reproduction and by reconsiderations of how to define kinship in the most productive ways for cross-cultural comparisons. In addition, kinship studies have moved away from the minutiae of kin terminological systems and the "kinship algebra" often associated with these, to the...

Violence
ISBN: 9780826460080 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This text explores the meanings and contexts in which violent actions occur. The authors build upon David Riches's concept of the triangle of violence - which examines the relationship between performers, victims and witnesses - and his proposition that violence is marked by contests regarding its legitimacy as a social act. Adopting an approach which looks at the negotiated and contingent nature of violent behaviour, Stewart and Strathern particularly stress the powerful underlying motivation for revenge and the often unacknowledged association between ideas of revenge and concepts of...

ISBN: 9780521004732 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Two classic topics in social anthropology are combined in this work--the study of witchcraft and sorcery and the study of rumors and gossip.

The study draws upon examples from Africa, Europe, India, Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia.

Humors and Substances: Ideas of the Body in New Guinea
ISBN: 9780897897624 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book considers in depth the emergent theme of concerns over bodily fluids in health and wellness through an examination of a rich set of ethnographic materials from the Pacific islands of New Guinea. The particular structure of the book draws together otherwise disparate observations made by ethnographers on ideas of the body. It helps to reveal how these are related to ideas of sickness and curing, of witchcraft, of cannibalism, of gender relations, and of ecology and ritual. It facilitates cross-cultural comparisons with other parts of the world, as well as making clear the...

This book argues that the breaking and re-making of frames of analysis underlie the history of theorizing in anthropology. The authors advocate a mindful, nuanced, people-centered approach to all theorizing-one that avoids total system approaches (-isms) and suggest that theory should relate cogently to ethnography.
