Many families leave their children for years to be looked after by young people about whom they know next to nothing, from places they have barely heard of. Who are these au pairs, why do they come and what is their experience of this arrangement? Do they, for their part, find that they are treated as one of the family, and would they even want to be? After a year of careful research, this book shows how most of our assumptions and expectations about au pairs are wrong.
This is the first book devoted to the lives of au pairs, their leisure as well as their work time. We see this... Many families leave their children for years to be looked after by young people about whom they know next to nothing, from places they have barely hea...

Wall Street at War : The Secret Struggle for the Global Economy
ISBN: 9780745644172 / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-12 dni roboczych. Many of the problems that lie at the heart of the current financial crisis stem from a significant but little-known development that occurred in the early 1980s: the credit agencies that flourished in New York, London and elsewhere acquired a great deal of power because their ratings now reflected investors shifting priorities, and so controlled the ability of corporations to gain access to capital.
The rise of the credit agencies thereby also represented a new model of capitalism, quite different from the old model of the risk-taking entrepreneur. To attract investment capital,...

An Anthropology of Puzzles: The Role of Puzzles in the Origins and Evolution of Mind and Culture
ISBN: 9781350170049 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. An Anthropology of Puzzles argues that the human brain is a "puzzling organ" which allows humans to literally solve their own problems of existence through puzzle format. Noting the presence of puzzles everywhere in everyday life, Marcel Danesi looks at puzzles in society since the dawn of history, showing how their presence has guided large sections of human history, from discoveries in mathematics to disquisitions in philosophy. Danesi examines the cognitive processes that are involved in puzzle making and solving, and connects them to the actual physical manifestations of classic...

Birds of Passage: Hunting and Conservation in Malta
ISBN: 9781789207668 / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Bird migration between Europe and Africa is a fraught journey, particularly in the Mediterranean, where migratory birds are shot and trapped in large numbers. In Malta, thousands of hunters share a shrinking countryside. They also rub shoulders with a strong bird-protection and conservation lobby. Drawing on years of ethnographic fieldwork, this book traces the complex interactions between hunters, birds and the landscapes they inhabit, as well as the dynamics and politics of bird conservation. Birds of Passage looks at the practice and meaning of hunting in a specific context, and raises...

Set at the forested edge of Cambodia's frontier, this book shares stories and insights from migrants, loggers, and soldiers carving homesteads out of the wilderness. This is where the physical and social infrastructures of global development interact with the local workers. The stories included in this book show the fluid boundaries of social, economic and political classifications in the area, and that the inhabitants' poverty or wealth reveal the legacy of imperial power.

The Anthropological Lens: Rethinking E. E. Evans-Pritchard
ISBN: 9780198812913 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Sir Edward Evan Evans-Pritchard (1902-1973) is widely considered the most influential British anthropologist of the twentieth century, known to generations of students for his seminal works on South Sudanese ethnography Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande (OUP 1937) and The Nuer (OUP 1940). In these works, now classics in the anthropological literature, Evans-Pritchard broke new ground on questions of rationality, social accountability, kinship, social and political organization, and religion, as well as influentially moving the discipline in Britain away from the natural sciences...

'A fascinating new analysis of human violence, filled with fresh ideas and gripping evidence from our primate cousins, historical forebears, and contemporary neighbors' Steven Pinker 'A brilliant analysis of the role of aggression in our evolutionary history' Jane Goodall It may not always seem so, but day-to-day interactions between individual humans are extraordinarily peaceful. That is not to say that we are perfect, just far less violent than most animals, especially our closest relatives, the chimpanzee and their legendarily docile cousins, the Bonobo. Perhaps surprisingly, we...

ISBN: 9780367285814 / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. As environmental management becomes of increasing concern to both industrial and developing societies, it is instructive to look at the fundamental relationship between man and environment as exemplified by the hunter-gatherer cultures, in which resource management was and is vital to the very existence of human life. The authors of this book look at hunting and gathering societies in Australia and North America, searching for the essential, as distinct from local, manifestations of human-environment relations. They examine the availability of resources in relation to the requirements of...

Roman Artefacts and Society: Design, Behaviour, and Experience

Książka dostępna od: 25-08-2020 In this book, Ellen Swift uses design theory, previously neglected in Roman archaeology, to investigate Roman artefacts in a new way, making a significant contribution to both Roman social history, and our understanding of the relationships that exist between artefacts and people. Based on extensive data collection and the close study of artefacts from museum collections and archives, the book examines the relationship between artefacts, everyday behaviour, and experience. The concept of 'affordances'-features of an artefact that make possible, and incline users towards, particular uses...
