    Abstract: Mittels einer Untersuchung von standardisierten Praktiken (Stadtrundgängen und Stadtrundfahrten) und Dispositiven (Stadtkarten, Reiseführer) fürs „Touren“ von Städten zeigt diese Dissertation, (1) wie die Stadt Berlin in ein virtuelles Objekt, nämlich, einen touristischen Zielort, transformiert wird, ( 2) wie diese Transformation nicht nur durch die Bewegung von Touristen im Raum und das Unterwegssein ermöglicht wird, sondern durch touristische Kommunikation über die Stadt, und (3) wie diese emergente touristische Stadt in einer multiplen und polykontexturalen städtischen Öffentlichkeit eingebettet ist, wo sie in verschiedenen Typen von Beziehung mit naheliegenden Inszenierungen der Stadt eintritt, wie die der Stadt-Marketing und der kollektiven Erinnerungspolitik. Drei weitere Aspekte sind zu erwähnen, die den gesamten Text subtil anregen. Die Dissertation stellt eine neue Theorie des Tourismus als Kommunikationsform, und nicht als Form des Reisens, auf; sie integriert die Luhmannsche Kommunikationstheorie mit der Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie, und sie ist durchaus empirisch, basierend auf einer jahrlangen ethnographischen Untersuchung (2005-2006) von Praktiken und Dispositiven des „Tourens“ im zeitgenössischen Berlin.
    Abstract: Through the study of standardized practices (walking tours, bus-tours) and devices (maps, guidebooks) for touring cities, this dissertation shows (1) how the city of Berlin is transformed into a virtual object, namely, an urban destination, (2) how such transformation is enabled not simply by tourist movement in space and being away from ‚home‘, but by tourist communication on the city, and (3) how this emergent tourist city is embedded in a multiple and polycontextural urban public sphere, in which it enters into different types of relationship with neighbouring enactments of the city, such as those of city-marketing and collective memory. Subtly informing the whole text there are three aspects to be mentioned: the dissertation proposes a new theory of tourism as a form of communication, not of travel; it integrates Luhmann’s communication theory with actor-network theory; and it is throughout empirical, based on a year-long ethnographic study (2005-2006) of touring practices and devices in contemporary Berlin.

    Abstract: This innovative work of historical anthropology explores how India's Dalits, or ex-untouchables, transformed themselves from stigmatized subjects into citizens. Anupama Rao's account challenges standard thinking on caste as either a vestige of precolonial society or an artifact of colonial governance. Focusing on western India in the colonial and postcolonial periods, she shines a light on South Asian historiography and on ongoing caste discrimination, to show how persons without rights came to possess them and how Dalit struggles led to the transformation of such terms of colonial liberalism.

Since the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) has had a profound impact on international efforts to deal with the aftermath of mass violence and societal conflict, this is an appropriate time for scholars to debate and reflect on the work of the TRC and the wide-ranging sch

    Abstract: The dissolution of the French Empire and the ensuing rush of immigration have led to the formation of diasporas and immigrant cultures that have transformed French society and the immigrants themselves. Transnational Spaces and Identities in the Francophone World examines the impact of this postcolonial immigration on identity in France and in the Francophone world, which has encompassed parts of Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the Americas. Immigrants bear cultural traditions within themselves, transform "host" communities, and are, in turn, transformed. These migrations necessar

    Abstract: This groundbreaking collection of essays discusses from a variety of historical, philosophical, and cultural perspectives the appearance of the Jewish Youth Movements and youth organizations, within the context of the early twentieth century cultural atmosphere in central Europe. The essays, written by leading Israeli and German scholars in the field of modern German and German-Jewish history, cover a wide bend of phenomena such as the Jewish Youth in Salzburg and Prague, The Jewish Youth Movements "Blau-Weiss" and "Ha'shomer Hatz'air," the youth pioneers in Palestine, as well as the unique visual culture and radical philosophy of "being young" which characterized the Jewish youth--in an intense dialogue with the contemporaneous German model. "The Age of Youth," referring both to the "being young" and to the specific European context of the turn of the nineteenth and early twentieth century in which a new model of youth was introduced, encloses new and pivotal perspectives of youth movements and organizations which deeply influenced the emerging Jewish identity, culture and political understandings of that era. This collection of essays will be of value to scholars who are interested in German and Jewish history, Political Studies, Culture Studies, Continental Philosophy, Pedagogy, and Theology.--Publisher's website.

    Abstract: This collection, dealing with case studies drawn from South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Mauritius, examines the relationship between scientific claims and practices, and the exercise of colonial power. It challenges conventional views that portray science as a detached mode of reasoning with the capacity to confer benefits in a more or less even-handed manner. That science has the potential to further the collective good is not fundamentally at issue, but science can also be seen as complicit in processes of colonial domination. Not only did science assist in bolstering aspects of colonial power and exploitation, it also possessed a significant ideological component: it offered a means of legitimating colonial authority by counter-poising Western rationality to native superstition and it served to enhance the self-image of colonial or settler elites in important respects. This innovative volume ranges broadly through topics such as statistics, medicine, eugenics, agriculture, entomology and botany

    Abstract: This collection of 23 documents about Indian Tamils, all in English, deal primarily with specific village surveys or regional studies in Tamil Nadu. No single document in the collection gives a general overview of all aspects of Tamil ethnography. Information regarding the caste and class organization of the Tamil is provided by Béteille, Sivetsen, Gough, Beck, and Mencher. Tamil economics is covered by Haswell and in the six south Indian village economic studies presented in Thomas, Ramakrishnan, Thirumalai, Natarajan, and Veeraraghaven. Also discussed are the status and powers of women in Tamil society, health and health policies in the village of Thaiyur, and social change in the village of Pulicat. The Tamil homeland is in southwestern India and is roughly equivalent to the modern state of Tamil Nadu. The Tamil comprise the vast majority of the population of Tamil Nadu and a good number of Indian Tamil also live in the small territory of Pondicherry, around the city of Bangalore, and elsewhere in India. The Tamil speak Tamil, a Dravidian language. Within villages, society is ordered by a hierarchy of castes

    Abstract: This collection about the Tiwi consists of 11 documents and a culture summary, all in English. It covers a variety of historical, geographical, and cultural information from 1900 to the 1960s collected primarily by professional anthropologists and government officials. The Tiwi are aboriginal people inhabiting Melville and Bathurst Islands of northern Australia. Anthropologist Jane Goodale provides comprehensive firsthand ethnographic accounts of Tiwi society as observed in 1950s and 1960s. She describes major features of Tiwi society through detailed exposition of the experiences of individual women, men, and children in different groups (households, matrilineal sibs, phratries, and moieties) and a wide variety of social situations relating to puberty rites, marriage arrangements, and funeral ceremonies. Other anthropological studies included examine status manipulation and political behavior, art and religion, kinship and social organization, use of personal names, marriage contracts, puberty and initiation rites, economic activities, and division of labor by gender. There is little information on changes that might have occurred in Tiwi society after 1962 (the year Goodale visited the area for the last time) to the present

    Abstract: This collection about the Samoans consists of 15 documents and a culture summary, covering a wide variety of cultural and historical information from the1830s to the 1990s. The Samoans are Polynesian people who live on a group of small islands in the Central Pacific which constitute the territories of American Samoa and (since 1962) the independent state of Western Samoa. The earliest descriptions of Samoan culture and history were compiled by the missionaries John B. Stair and George Turner, who lived in different parts of the island from 1838-1945 and 1840-1880, respectively. Five documents are ethnographic accounts and essays by Margaret Mead who, in 1925-1928, lived among Samoans villagers mostly in the Manuan group of islands in American Samoa. One document revisits some of the major arguments advanced in Mead's works, notably her portrayal of adolescent Samoan girls as sexually permissive. The remaining seven documents in the collection further enrich the historical and cultural information on Samoa with additional themes and in-depth analysis including plant resources and indigenous botanical knowledge, traditional material culture, a socio-political analysis of the modern history of American and Western Samoa, post-war reconstruction of Western Samoa, material culture and social change, structures and processes in the Western Samoan Sala'ilua village, and recent changes in the economic options of households and individuals in Vaega and Neiafu villages in Western Samoa

    Abstract: This collection consists of a culture summary and four English language documents dealing with the people and culture of Abkhazia, covering approximately 1864 to 1979. The study by Paula Garb is based on the memories of centenarian informants and goes back in time to the middle or late nineteenth century. They recount the transition from czarist fuedalism to capitalist development, early Soviet government, the formation of collective farms, World War II, and their opinions of modern (late twentieth century) Abkhazian youth. Benet focuses on various environmental and biological factors leading to extreme longevity of a large number of individuals in Abkhaz society. Other ethnographic topics discussed are kinship and kinship terminology, women's roles, marriage, sexual behavior, child-rearing practices, funerals, religion, and folklore. Dzhanashvili and Dzhanashia both deal in large part with Abkhaz religion, including gods, ceremonies, spirits of the dead, and holidays. Dzhanashvili also presents some general ethnographic information on social life (marriage, the fosterage system of the upper class), and some notes on mortuary practices. The Abkhazians mostly live in the de facto autonomous republic of Abkhazia located between the southwestern slopes of the Greater Caucasus Mountains and a narrow strip along the Black Sea coast in the extreme northwest region of the Republic of Georgia

    Keywords: Ainu ; Ainu--Medicine ; Ainu ; Ainu
    Abstract: This collection about the Ainu consists of 8 documents, all in English, including three books which were translated from Japanese. The collection contains a variety of cultural and historical information from two widely contrasting time periods. The first covers the years 1877 to 1924 when most Ainu were living in their traditional homeland in southern Sakhalin. The second is from the 1960s-1970s after the Ainu almost disappeared as a distinct group following their relocation in the Hokkaidō Island by the Japanese government during World War II. The oldest materials in the collection were compiled by Batchelor, an English missionary who lived among the Ainu for fifty years in 1877-1924; Pilsudski, a German ethnologist who conducted fieldwork there from 1895-1905; and Munro, an English physician who lived in Japan in 1900-1942. These works provide firsthand accounts of pre-relocation Ainu culture and society, covering religion, ceremonials, mythology, folklore, economic activities, life cycles, and health issues. Three of the books in the collection were authored by Japanese scholars focusing on Japanese conquest and assimilation of the Ainu (Takakura), ecological and economic effects of relocation (Watanabe), and features of Ainu kinship system (Sugiura). The remaining two books are by Ohnuki-Tierney, an American anthropologist who, in 1965-1969, sought to retrospectively reconstruct the "Ainu way of life" through extensive ethnographic fieldwork among elderly informants in Sakhalin. Ohnuki-Tierney's works, which also provide extensive review of previous works on the Ainu in Sakhalin, Hokkaidō and the neighboring islands, are the most comprehensive sources. Ainu people who lived in Kurile and the other islands taken over by the USSR during World War II are not covered in the collection

    Abstract: This collection of fifteen documents covers historical, cultural, and economic information on the Rwandans, circa 1895 to 2004. The Rwandan culture has its roots in the precolonial kingdom of Rwanda and encompasses both the population of the modern state of Rwanda and speakers of the Kinyarwanda language in the neighboring Congo and Uganda. The basic and most comprehensive sources in the collection were compiled by the Belgian ethnologist Jacques Maquet in 1949-1957. Maquet discusses the processes and rules that structured Rwandan society into a caste-like political system consisting of cattle owning ruling elites, Tutsi, a farming majority, Hutu, and a forest dwelling hunting minority, Twa. However, his arguments are strongly challenged by the works of three scholars, Mamdani, Catharine Newbury, and David Newbury, who do not view ethnicity as a primordial identity. The collection also includes four documents which, together, provide the earliest available firsthand information on the Rwandans: Czekanowski, who, in 1907-1909, collected a wide variety of information relating to history, language, and arts in the Mpororo region; the now classic work of John Roscoe, a European clergy who traveled extensively in central Africa; and van Hove, a Belgian colonial administrator and lawyer. Two documents from Christopher Taylor deal with ethnomedicine and diet, and the remaining three deal with the nature of the violence that swept Rwanda in 1994. The Rwandans encompass groups presently known as the Hutu, Tutsi, and Twa

    Keywords: Bedouins--Arabian Peninsula ; Arabian Peninsula--Description and travel ; Folklore--Arabian Peninsula ; Bedouins--Saudi Arabia ; Saudi Arabia--Social life and customs ; Beduine ; Beduine
    Abstract: This collection of three documents and a culture summary, all in English, cover historical and cultural information from about late-1900s to mid-1970s. Alois Musil, a Czech historical geographer, traveled with the Rwala Bedouins between 1908 and 1915 working for the Austro-Hungarian government. His book provides first hand accounts of daily life, ethical codes, social structures and religious practices of the Rwala when they were still living in the desert as nomadic pastoralists. Carl Reinhard Raswan, a German adventurer, spent 22 years off and on among the Rwala Bedouins from 1913-1935. He presents detailed information on Rwala code of honor and ethics, drought and patterns of migration, marriage practices and duties of village Sheiks. Anthropologist William Lancaster conducted extensive ethnographic fieldwork among various Rwala groups in Syria, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia in 1972-1975. Lancaster's work explores how Rwala families, lineages and Sheiks have changed over the past several decades in response to external forces, notably the division of their traditional homeland among four newly emerged sovereign states (namely, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq) and the oil boom in the region. This work also deconstructs travelers' reports and European imaginations of the Bedouin which tend to romanticize their desert life and "exotic" lineage systems. The Rwala are nomadic pastoralists who live mainly in southeastern Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia. They speak Arabic and refer to themselves as "baduw," that is, people of the "desert." All Rwala are believed to be descended from a common but unknown Arab ancestor. Their access to grazing land has been altered by the creation of nation-states in the 20th century and the establishment national boundaries across their customary migration routes. Since 1970 the Rwala have made more money from commerce and wage labor than from pastoralism

    Abstract: This collection consists of a culture summary and one book. The book, authored by Ralph Linton, is based on his field work conducted in 1926-1927 and sponsored by the Field Museum. Although Linton was only among the Tanala for two months, he spent about one year and a half traveling throughout Madagascar, and as a result presents data on various other tribes of the island in comparison with that on the Tanala. The work is presented as a standard ethnography, with sections on tribal identification, economy, social organization, government, religion, warfare, amusement, art, life cycle, folklore, and a brief history of tribal wars. The Tanala, also called Antanala, are a Malagasy speaking people living in southeastern Madagascar, an island nation located off the eastern coast of southern Africa

    Abstract: This collection consists of nine documents, all in English, about the Mapuche. Titiev gives a good overall picture of Mapuche culture with special emphasis on sociopolitical structure and acculturation but only covers the period from 1930 to the late 1940s. Cooper's writing, based on secondary documentation, supplements the data in Titiev, particularly in regard to diversity among the various tribal divisions, and adds more historical background information. Latcham's account of Mapuche culture as it existed in the late nineteenth century is poorly organized, but provides many useful details on Mapuche life. Although its major focus is on childhood and child-rearing practices, Hilger's piece provides a wealth of information on the life cycle, material culture, subsistence activities, religion, kinship, political organization, art, and culture history of both Chilean and Argentinian groups of Mapuche. Faron deals with Mapuche social structure, religion, and morals; Baccara discusses the Mapuche ethnic resurgence in post-dictatorship Chile; and Nakashima Degarrond describes female shamanism among the Mapuche of Chile. Historically, Mapuche or "people from the land" was the term used to designate the Mapuche occupying the south-central area of Chile but now is the term used for all Mapuche. The Mapuche speak a language called Mapudungun, composed of several dialects

    Abstract: This collection of five documents and a culture summary, all in English, cover historical and cultural information from about late-1880s to early 2000s. Two documents date back to the first quarters of the 20th century when most of the area was ruled by European colonialists. One is a chapter from a handbook compiled by the intelligence division of the British Navy, the other is a book written by H. R. P. Dickson, a British political agent who worked in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq in 1920s-1930s. Dickson's book provides a first hand account of Bedouin culture and society including the physical environment, material culture, seasonal movements, organization of tribes and lineages, cultural norms relating to visiting and hospitality, folklore, religious beliefs and practices, warfare, and inter-community relations. The remainder of the collection consists of three articles, all by professional anthropologists. Two discuss indigenous conflict resolution practices with particular emphasis on blood feuds and cattle raiding. The remaining article explores the effects of a wide variety of external and internal factors, notably colonialism, commercialization of pastoral production, occupational change and sedentarization, on Bedouin culture and identity. The Bedouin are Arabic-speaking people who earn their living primarily from animal husbandry by natural graze and browse of sheep, goats, and camels. Traditionally, the Bedouin lived in tents, formed scattered camping units that seasonally migrated over a vast area of the Middle East and North Africa influenced by availability of pasture and water. This way of life and social organization has been significantly affected by the creation of nation-states in the 20th century and the establishment national boundaries across customary migration routes. As a consequence, the Bedouin have begun to engage in new activities including tourism, commerce and wage labor

    Keywords: Mossi (African people) ; Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso)--Social conditions ; Mossi ; Mossi
    Abstract: This collection of 10 documents covers historical, cultural, and geographical information on the Mossi people from their first conquest by French colonialists in 1896/1897 to the emergence of Burkina Faso as an independent nation in 1961. The earliest account of pre-colonial Mossi culture and society in this collection was compiled by Mangin, a Catholic missionary who worked among the Mossi at the turn of the 20th century. Two documents focus on political and social structures as observed in 1908-1916 by Tauxier, a French colonial administrator with a long association with traditional Mossi leaders. The remaining seven documents were compiled by two American anthropologists, Skinner and Hammond, and are based on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in Ouagadougou and other parts of Mossi country mostly in 1954-1957. In one document Skinner discusses urbanization and modernization issues based on data and interviews from ethnographic fieldwork conducted in the 1964-1965 and later on in 1966-1969 when the author served as the Ambassador of the United States to Burkina Faso. The Mossi are a Voltaic-speaking people located mostly in the West African nation of Burkina Faso (formerly Upper Volta). The Mossi are historically noted for their empire, which lasted for at least five centuries until conquest by the French at the end of the nineteenth century

    Abstract: This collection about the Kpelle consists of 10 documents, covering a variety of cultural information, from the 1910s to the 1980s. German ethnologist Diedrich H. Westermann describes Kpelle environment, economy, language, family, social organization, religion and arts as observed in 1914-1915. His work is the oldest and by far the largest in the collection, though Gibbs provides a more general social and cultural summary of Kpelle based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 1957-1958. The remaining 8 documents are results of research concerned with specific issues and the focus of most of these studies was on rural Kpelle communities in Liberia. Kpelle communities found in cities (e.g., Monorovia) and outside Liberia (e.g., Kpelle of Guinea or Guerzé) are not covered. The Kpelle are the largest ethnic group in the West African nation of Liberia and a significant group in neighboring Guinea

    Keywords: Yoruba (African people) ; Yoruba ; Yoruba
    Abstract: This collection of 31 documents about the Yoruba covers the time period from 1880 to the 1960s. The book by anthropologist William R. Bascom (1969) provides comprehensive first-hand ethnographic accounts of Yoruba culture as observed in 1937-1938, 1950-1951 and 1965. Articles by Bascom discuss aspects of Yoruba culture and society including social structure, cult groups and divination, functions of local credit institutions, and food and cooking. Other anthropological studies include both broad ethnographic surveys, and relatively short manuscripts examining specific themes including political structure, lineage groups, kinship and marriage, class and economic differentiation, craft organization, land tenure and tenancy, urbanization and change, and divination, cult groups, witchcraft and dynamics of gender and religion. Also included in the collection are reports by a senior colonial government official and two missionaries. The collection focuses largely on Yoruba communities in Nigeria, except Parrinder (1947) who provides a brief ethnographic survey of the Yoruba in Benin (formerly Dahomey). Readers will also find useful information in Matory and Bascom (1969) relating to the influences of Yoruba religion and art forms on the cultures of peoples of African origin in the Caribbean, Cuba, Brazil, and the United States

    Abstract: This collection about the Zuni, a pueblo Indian group located in the southwestern United States, consists of 33 documents. The collection is oriented toward traditional Zuni ethnography represented by the classic works of Stevenson, Cushing, Kroeber, Parsons, Bunzel, and Woodbury. The social and political organization of the Zuni are covered in Ladd, Eggan, Eggan and Pandey, and Pandey. Kinship is discussed in Kroeber, Schneider, and Ladd; and agriculture is covered by Cushing, Bohrer, and Damp. Acculturation and culture change are topics of focus in McFeat, Leighton, Mills, and Eggan and Pandey. Other ethnographic subjects covered in this collection are kachinas, family and household, and ceramics. Wyaco wrote an autobiographical account of growing up in the Zuni society, and Pandey critiques various anthropologists' work with the Zuni over the years. The Zuni, who call themselves "A shiwi," are primarily concentrated in the single village or pueblo of Zuni situated on a reservation in west-central New Mexico

    Keywords: Carib Indians ; Indians of South America--Guyana ; Barama River Carib ; Barama River Carib
    Abstract: This collection about the Barama River Carib consists of two documents and a cultural summary that covers cultural, ecological, and historical information collected by professional anthropologists from the 1920s to the 1970s. The Barama River Carib are a small group of indigenous people located in the North West District of Guyana. John Gillin explores relationships between ecology and dominant features of Barama River Carib's social organization and personality as observed in the 1930s. Kathleen Adams studied this community some forty years later. Her work gives particular emphasis to changes observed in Barama River Carib's demography, settlement pattern, and semi-nomadic adaptation to the rain forest as they were being integrated into a national political economy by the Guyanese government

    Abstract: Seit den 1980er Jahren setzt sich die indigene Bevölkerung Brasiliens verstärkt für ihre Rechte in der Gesellschaft ein. Kommunikation spielt hierbei eine entscheidende Rolle - besonders das Internet gewinnt als Medium im Alltag indigener Gemeinschaften immer mehr an Bedeutung. Aber wie wird das Internet eingesetzt und zu welchen Zwecken? Wie eignen sie sich dieses Medium an und welche kulturellen Prozesse entstehen dabei? Die Autorin untersucht diese Fragen ethnographisch und geht dabei sowohl auf die gesamtgesellschaftlichen Aspekte der Internetnutzung durch die Indigenen als auch auf ihre Bedeutung im Alltag dieser Gemeinschaften ein

    Abstract: This collection consists of three documents, all in English, containing information about the Vedda during three periods of time: 1850s, mid-1910s, and late 1960s. The first comprehensive ethnographic account of Vedda in this collection was compiled by C. G. Seligmann and B. Z. Seligmann. It provides a first hand account of Vedda kinship, village life, economic activities, settlement patterns, life cycles, religion, music, language and perceptions as observed in 1907-1908. Seligmanns's account is supplemented by James Brow's study of kinship and caste system among the Vedda of Anuradhapura district in the Northern Central Province of Sri Lanka. The remaining book in the collection was authored by John Bailey, a British colonial government official, and he covers a variety of information relating to settlement pattern, economic activities and religion. The Vedda are a small group of indigenous people living in the center of Sri Lanka, an island off the southern tip of India

    Abstract: This collection of ten documents, three translated from the Chinese, provide historical, economic and cultural information about the Miao, circa 1920-2000. Most are based on fieldwork with different Miao communities in China during the late 1930s and early 1940s at a time when many Miao farmers actively participated first in the liberation struggle against Japanese occupation and later on during the "Long March" with the victorious Red Army. The earliest and most basic sources in the collection are by Graham which, together, provide a variety of cultural information including language, mythology, subsistence, dwellings, family life, kinship, village government, arts, religion and ceremonials. His focus on the Miao of southern Szechwan is complimented by Rui who provides a brief description of a subgroup called Magpai Miao. Four documents focus on different Miao groups living in Kweichow, Hunan, and Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. Based on ethnographic data collected in the 1980s and early 1990s, when the Chinese government gradually opened rural communities to Western researchers and travelers, the two remaining works discuss the ways in which the cultures and identities of the Miao (and other minority ethnic groups) have been constructed and deployed since the 1949 and especially in the context of China's post-Mao economic reforms. The Miao are one of 56 non-Han Chinese people officially recognized by the government as minority nationalities. They are distinguished by language, dress, historical traditions, and cultural practice from neighboring ethnic groups and the dominant Han Chinese

    Abstract: Wissenschaftler, die sich mit der populären Hindu-Religion in Indien befassen, waren schon immer von mündlichen Texten und Ritualen fasziniert, aber überraschenderweise wurden bisher nur wenige Versuche unternommen, die Beziehung zwischen Ritualen und Texten systematisch zu analysieren. Das vorliegende Buch trägt dazu bei, diese Lücke zu schließen. Die Studie konzentriert sich auf die Dynamik eines lokalen (nicht-brahmanischen) Rituals, seine modulare Organisation und innere Logik, die Interaktion zwischen narrativem Text und Ritual sowie die Bedeutung des lokalen bzw. translokalen Charakters des Textes im rituellen Kontext. Sie zeigt, dass die Untersuchung von Texten in ihrem Kontext hilft, die Komplexität religiöser Traditionen und die Art und Weise, in der Ritual und Text programmatisch eingesetzt werden, besser zu verstehen. Die Autorin bietet eine anschauliche Beschreibung eines bisher unbeachteten Ritualsystems sowie die erste Übersetzung eines Textes namens Icakkiyamman-Katai (IK). Der in tamilischer Sprache verfasste IK stellt eine wesentlich erweiterte Form einer Kernversion dar, die wahrscheinlich bis ins siebte Jahrhundert n. Chr. zurückreicht. Im Gegensatz zur klassischen Quelle ist dieser Text in eine lebendige Tradition eingebunden und wird ständig neu gestaltet. Eine Reihe von Textversionen wurde in Form eines Konspekts zusammengefasst, der Aufschluss über die Variabilität bzw. Stabilität des Textes gibt und unser Wissen über bardische Kreativität erweitert. Die ursprünglich auf einer dem Buch beigefügten DVD veröffentlichten Filme sind auf der Multimedia-Datenbank heidICON archivert und können über die nachfolgenden Links abgespielt werden: https://doi.org/10.11588/heidicon/1739695 Originalaufnahme mit englischer Sprachausgabe. https://doi.org/10.11588/heidicon/1739698 Originalaufnahme in Tamil. https://doi.org/10.11588/heidicon/1739701 Stories. 'Stories' enthält Zusammenfassungen der beiden im Ritual gesungenen Texte: The translocal story Icakkiyammaṉ Katai und The local Icakki story.

    Abstract: Contemporary Africa is undergoing a period of unprecedented urban expansion, which is throwing up new challenges in the provision of essential services and contentious questions about ownership of urban spaces. This volume explores the interconnections between these processes, whilst avoiding the tendency to forget that cities are also embedded in deeper historical processes that are integral to the framing of entitlements. Histories of migrancy and the creation of urban 'stranger' communities are fundamental in deciding who lives where and what this means, materially and socially. The gated communities that are springing up are often layered across older forms of urban segregation and/or segmentation. Urban water and food supply, the management of urban land claims, inequality and popular culture are closely examined. --From publisher's description

    Abstract: Fieldwork extending over a thirty-year period provided materials for this book. Paths and Rivers offers an unusually deep and broad picture of the Sa'dan Toraja as a society in dynamic transition over the course of the past century. The Toraja inhabit the mountainous highlands of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, and are well known for their dramatic architecture, their unusual cliff burials, and their flamboyant ceremonial life, which places extraordinary economic demands on individuals and families. The analysis is informed, firstly, by a comparative perspective which sets Toraja social structure in the context of the Austronesian world. Secondly, the author delves deeply into Toraja social memory to show how people think about the past. She examines the usefulness of history and myth in the present as a source of identity, a template for action, or a resource by means of which to claim precedence. The book gives a clear picture of the structure and ethos of the indigenous Toraja religion, the Aluk To Dolo or 'Way of the Ancestors', with its complex cycle of rituals. The book concludes with an analysis of the ceremonial economy, which draws upon both domestic subsistence production and the global market economy. Paths and Rivers draws together a fascinating picture of one society's journey into modernity. Roxana Waterson is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology, National University of Singapore. She is also the author of The living house: an anthropology of architecture in Southeast Asia (3rd ed., Thames and Hudson, 1997) and Southeast Asian lives: Personal narratives and historical experience (Singapore University Press/Ohio University Press, 2007).

    Abstract: This groundbreaking volume explores the multicultural debate that has evolved in the United States and Europe since the cataclysmic events of 9/11. Instead of suggesting closure by presenting a unified narrative about cultural diversity, national identity, and social stratification, the essays in this well-balanced collection present a variety of perspectives, each highlighting the undiminished relevance of key issues such as immigration, assimilation, and citizenship, while also pointing to unresolved conflicts over universalism, religion, and tolerance. Most importantly, this volume shows that the struggle over multiculturalism is not limited to the political domain, but also has profound cultural implications. American Multiculturalism after 9/11: Transatlantic Perspectives is an invaluable, thought-provoking addition to the debate about multiculturalism as central to the study of the United States in a global context.

    Abstract: Moderne Technologien wie Fernsehen und Internet haben die jahrhundertealte Tradition des Geschichtenerzählens in den Hintergrund gedrängt, obgleich sie bis heute nichts von ihrer Faszination eingebüßt hat. Märchen, Sagen und zeitgeschichtliche Berichte halten Erinnerungen wach, ranken sich um historische Persönlichkeiten, erklären Ortsnamen und geologische Formationen aus fernen Welten oder der Heimat. Erst durch Erzählungen wird eine Region für unsere Kinder lebendig erhalten und das Wissen von einer Generation an die nächste weitergegeben. Das Projekt "Café Sagenhaft" sammelt "Geschichten aus Frankfurt und der großen weiten Welt" auf einer innovativen Internetplattform. Adressaten sind Pädagogen aus unterschiedlichen Segmenten des Bildungssystems: Grundschullehrerinnen und -lehrer, Erzieherinnen und Erzieher finden hier künftig regionale und internationale Geschichten für Kinder didaktisch sinnvoll aufbereitet und mit vielen Tipps und Anregungen für die Unterrichts- und Freizeitgestaltung versehen. Doch findet nicht nur eine Verzahnung des vorschulischen mit dem schulischen Bildungsbereich, sondern auch eine Integration der Seniorenkulturarbeit statt. Für ältere Menschen mit Erzähltalent bietet das Café Sagenhaft nämlich die Möglichkeit des bürgerschaftlichen Engagements, indem sie als Experten ihrer eigenen Lebensgeschichten oder als Erzähler schriftlich kodifizierter Geschichten auftreten können. Entwickelt von einem Projektteam unter Leitung von Prof. Dieter Nittel am Institut für Sozialpädagogik und Erwachsenenbildung wird das virtuelle Café ab Februar 2010 online gehen und unter der Domain www.cafesagenhaft.de von der Stadtbibliothek weiterbetrieben werden.

In recent decades, a global call for biodiversity preservation has been the main challenge to Tanzanians and their forests. Thaddeus Sunseri uses the lens of forest history to explore some of the most profound transformations in Tanzania from the nineteenth century to the present. He explores anticolonial rebellions, the world wars, the depression, the Cold War, oil shocks, and nationalism through their intersections with and impacts on Tanzania's coastal forests and woodlands. In Wielding the Ax, forest history becomes a microcosm of the origins, nature, and demise of colonial rule in East Africa and of the first fitful decades of independence. Wielding the Ax is a story of changing constellations of power over forests, beginning with African chiefs and forest spirits, both known as "ax-wielders," and ending with international conservation experts who wield scientific knowledge as a means to controlling forest access. The modern international concern over tropical deforestation cannot be understood without an awareness of the long-term history of these forest struggles.

    Abstract: "During recent years, attempts have been made to move beyond the Eurocentric perspective that characterized the social sciences, especially anthropology, for over 150 years. A debate on the 'anthropology of anthropology' was needed, one that would consider other forms of knowledge, modalities of writing, and political and intellectual practices. This volume undertakes that challenge: it is the result of discussions held at the first organized encounter between Iranian, American, and European anthropologists since the Iranian Revolution of 1979. It is considered an important first step in overcoming the dichotomy between 'peripheral anthropologies' versus 'central anthropologies.' The contributors examine, from a critical perspective, the historical, cultural, and political field in which anthropological research emerged in Iran at the beginning of the twentieth century and in which it continues to develop today."--

    Abstract: Karl Marx refined the empirical, philosophical, and practical dimensions of his anthropology in his lifetime. After being widely rejected in the late 20th century the work of Marx is now being reassessed by many theorists and activists. This title explores how this most influential of modern thinkers is still highly relevant for anthropology

It profiles the personal challenges that TCKs experience, from feelings of rootlessness and unresolved grief to struggles with maturity and identity. Highlighting dramatic changes brought about by instant communication and new mobility patterns, this new edition shows how the TCK experience is becoming increasingly common and valuable.

    Abstract: This book offers fresh insights into the complex and various ways in which international frontiers influence cultural identities. The ten anthropological case studies collected here describe specific international borders in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America, and bring out the importance of boundary politics, and the diverse forms that it may take. The frontier itself may be of great symbolic importance; in other cases the symbolism lies rather in the disappearance of the traditional border. A frontier may be above all a barrier against immigration, or the front line between hostile armies. It may reinforce distinctive identities on each side of it, or the frontier may be disputed because it cuts across national identities. Drawing on anthropological perspectives, the book explores how cultural landscapes intersect with political boundaries, and ways in which state power informs cultural identity
