    Abstract: We hold many assumptions about police work-that it is the responsibility of the state, or that police officers are given the right to kill in the name of public safety or self-defense. But in The Killing Consensus, Graham Denyer Willis shows how in São Paulo, Brazil, killing and the arbitration of ""normal"" killing in the name of social order are actually conducted by two groups-the police and organized crime-both operating according to parallel logics of murder. Based on three years of ethnographic fieldwork, Willis's book traces how homicide detectives categorize two types of killing: the f...

    Abstract: This highly original work of anthropology combines extensive ethnographic fieldwork and investigative journalism to explain how security is understood, experienced, and constructed along the Triple Frontera, the border region shared by Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. One of the major ""hot borders"" in the Western Hemisphere, the Triple Frontera is associated with drug and human trafficking, contraband, money laundering, and terrorism. It's also a place where residents, particularly on the Argentine side, are subjected to increased governmental control and surveillance.How does a scholar tell...

    Abstract: Diese Arbeit nutzt Konzepte aus dem Repertoire der Performanztheorien zur Analyse des afro-brasilianischen Kampftanzes Capoeira Angola. Ungewoehnlich ist dabei die Rolle der Verfasserin, die sowohl als Ethnologin als auch als Lernende (und inzwischen Lehrende) der Capoeira in ihrer Person Innen- und Aussensicht auf den Gegenstand verbindet. Sie versucht durch ihre 2008 durchgefuehrte Feldforschung den Widerspruch zwischen klaren Regeln und definierten Kontexten einerseits und der Foerderung von Improvisation, Reflexion und Handlungsbevollmaechtigung andererseits aufzuloesen. Um dieses Phaenome...

    Abstract: Today, more than ever, talking about food improves the eating of it. Priscilla Parkhurst Ferguson argues that conversation can even trump consumption. Where many works look at the production, preparation, and consumption of food, Word of Mouth captures the language that explains culinary practices. Explanation is more than an elaboration here: how we talk about food says a great deal about the world around us and our place in it. What does it mean, Ferguson asks, to cook and consume in a globalized culinary world subject to vertiginous change?  Answers to this question demand a mastery of food...

    Abstract: In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, working-class Americans had eating habits that were distinctly shaped by jobs, families, neighborhoods, and the tools, utilities, and size of their kitchens-along with their cultural heritage. How the Other Half Ate is a deep exploration by historian and lecturer Katherine Turner that delivers an unprecedented and thoroughly researched study of the changing food landscape in American working-class families from industrialization through the 1950s.Relevant to readers across a range of disciplines-history, economics, sociology, urban studies,...
