    Abstract: What are the prospects for human health in a world threatened by disease and violence? Since World War II, at least 160 wars have erupted around the globe. Over 24 million people have died in these conflicts, and millions more suffered illness and injury. In this volume, leading scholars and practitioners examine the impact of structural, military, and communal violence on health, psychosocial well-being, and health care delivery. By investigating the fields of violence that define our modern world, the authors are able to provide alternative global health paradigms that can be used to develop more effective policies and programs.This volume springs from an ongoing collaboration between the School for Advanced Research and the Society for Applied Anthropology intended to result in visible activities with lasting effects on the discipline of anthropology and the sciences. The Dobkin Family Foundation generously sponsored the SAR seminar where the project began. (Umschlagtext)

    Keywords: Identität Alltag ; Geschichte ; Soziologie ; Sozialwissenschaft
    Abstract: 'Identity' and 'selfhood' are terms routinely used throughout the human sciences that seek to analyze and describe the character of everyday life and experience. Yet these terms are seldom defined or used with any precision, and scant regard is paid to the historical and cultural context in which they arose, or to which they are applied.This innovative book provides fresh historical insights in terms of the emergence, development, and interrelationship of specific and varied notions of identity and selfhood, and outlines a new sociological framework for analyzing it.This is the first historical/sociological framework for discussion of issues which have until now, generally been treated as 'philosophy' or 'psychology', and as such it is essential reading for those undergraduates and postgraduates of sociology, philosophy and history and cultural studies interested in the concepts of identity and self. It covers a broader range of material than is usual in this style of text, and includes a survey of relevant literature and precise analysis of key concepts written in a student-friendly style.

    Abstract: Seit Jahrzehnten wird von Wissenschaft und journalistischer Praxis harsche Kritik an Präsentation und Inhalt der Afrika-Bericherstattung in den deutschen Medien geübt. Lutz Mükke möchte mit "Journalisten der Finsternis" der in Deutschland üblichen inhaltsananlytischen Auseinandersetzung eine ausführliche Analyse der an der Afrika-Berichterstattung beteiligten Kommunikatoren (Korrespondenten, Redaktionsmitarbeiter, lokale Mitarbeiter) zur Seite stellen. Er beschreibt zudem Strukturen (u.a. Nachrichtenauswahl, ökonomische Rahmenbedingungen, Gatekeeper-Positionen), die die journalistische Informationsverarbeitung zu Afrika-Themen maßgeblich bestimmen.Die Untersuchung verfolgt zwei Ziele: Sie will einen kritischen Beitrag zur Professionalisierung des Auslandsjounalimus leisten und darüber hinaus Anregungen für den theoretischen Diskurs über Auslandsberichterstattung bieten. Sie bezieht sich dabei auf die derzeit gültigen Leitsätze des praktischen Journalismus, lässt Erfahrungen von Journalisten einfließen und stellt außerdem viele empirische Daten bereit.

    Abstract: Le génocide des Tutsi du Rwanda a fait d'avril à juillet 1994 environ 1 million de victimes, massacrées sous le prétexte d'être tutsi ou pour s'être opposées aux massacres. Planifié par les extrémistes hutu du régime du président Habyarimana, ce génocide a pu être mis en uvre grâce au silence de la communauté internationale et surtout à l'appui apporté par la France aux génocidaires. Alors que les plus hautes autorités françaises savaient qu'un génocide pouvait survenir au Rwanda, elles n'ont rien fait pour l'enrayer. Au contraire, elles ont soutenu ceux qui le préparaient puis ont apporté un appui décisif, tant politique que militaire, à ceux qui le commettaient. Ce soutien constitue bien, en droit, une " complicité " de génocide. C'est ce qu'entend rappeler ce livre, 15 ans après les faits. Autour de 15 questions clés, il s'attache à démontrer les éléments constitutifs de cette complicité et tente de répondre aux interrogations qu'une telle accusation pose. Pourquoi la France s'est-elle ainsi engagée au Rwanda ? Est-il possible de juger les responsables français ? Que penser des arguments de ceux qui réfutent la complicité de la France dans le génocide ? Depuis le génocide, quelle est l'attitude de la classe politique française ? Quelle est celle des militaires engagés au Rwanda ? Quelle connaissance l'opinion française a-t-elle de l'implication française ? Qu'est-ce qu'une Commission d'enquête parlementaire apporterait de plus que la Mission d'information de 1998 ? Au travers des réponses à ces questions, ce livre entend aider les citoyens français à comprendre en quoi cette tragédie " africaine " fait à jamais partie de l'histoire de notre pays et met directement en cause le fonctionnement de nos propres institutions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Beiträge dieses Sammelbandes entstanden im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes Sprachliche Innovation und Konzeptwandel in Westafrika des Instituts für Afrikanistik der Universität zu Wien. Dieser Band demonstriert sprachlichen Wandel in den Kontaktzonen unterschiedlichster Sprachfamilien anhand von Fallstudien linguistischer Phänomene und stellt so heraus, auf welchen Ebenen Sprachen besonders Tendenz zur Affinität aufweisen. Die linguistische Situation der westafrikanischen Sahel-Region zeichnet sich durch anhaltende soziale, historische, ökologische und ökonomische Transformationen aus.In diesem Band werden verschiedene Aspekte linguistischer Dynamiken, welche durch diese Transformationen verursacht werden, untersucht. Die Herausgeber sind der Meinung, dass sich linguistische Strukturen nicht ausschließlich durch genetische Zugehörigkeit, sondern ebenso durch Sprachkontakt auszeichnen. Während dies auf den ersten Blick im Wortschatz deutlich wird (z.B. durch Entlehnungen), sind die Spuren des Sprachkontakts in Phonologie, Morphologie oder Syntax wesentlich schwerer zu ermitteln.In Verbindung mit linguistischen Kontaktphänomenen beschäftigt sich dieser Band insbesondere mit den folgenden Aspekten - Strategien der Aneignung abweichender Tonsysteme, phonetische/phonologische Lautanpassung, Wandel von T(ense)A(spect)M(ood)-Systemen durch Sprachkontakt, syntaktische Subordination auf verschiedenen strukturellen Ebenen, Satz-/Gliedsatzstrukturen, die durch Kontakt beeinflusst wurden, Entlehnungen von Funktionswörtern, Reduktion von Dialektmerkmalen als ein Ergebnis von Sprachkontakt, dynamische Vorgänge von Code-Switching und Code-Mixing, semantische Verschiebung von Lehnwörtern.Es wurden Untersuchungen u.a. zu folgenden Sprachfamilien angestellt: Afro-Asiatisch: Arabisch, Buduma, Hausa, Kanuri, Niger-Congo: Adamawa Fulfulde, Kru, Mande, Yoruba.Mit diesem Band soll zum bestehenden System der Forschung zu Universalien und neuen globalen Tendenzen linguistischen Wandels beigetragen werden.

    Note: Zusammenfassung: Die Stadtregierung Addis Abebas begann im Jahr 2004 der zunehmend sichtbaren städtischen Wohnungskrise mit einem "Integrated Housing Development Program" (IHDP) entgegen zu wirken. Innerhalb dieses Großprojekts war bis zum Jahr 2011 der Bau von 225.000 Wohnungen vorgesehen, die ursprünglich zur Hälfte der unteren Einkommensschicht1 in Addis Abeba zur Verfügung gestellt werden sollten (Addis Ababa City Government 2007). Die Einheiten dieser so genannten Condominium-Apartment-Häuser, die in jüngster Zeit meist bis zu 7 Etagen erreichen, waren von Beginn an nur für den Eigentumskauf gedacht. Per Losverfahren erhalten registrierte Bewerber eine Zuteilung. Bereits im Jahr 2005 konnten die ersten Begünstigten des IHDP ihre Eigentumswohnung beziehen. Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit steht nicht eine Evaluierung des IDHP, sondern eine kritische Auseinandersetzung ("Diskursanalyse") des öffentlichen Diskurses über die Schaffung von Wohneigentum in Addis Abeba. Die empirische Untersuchung konzentriert sich auf drei Forschungsfragen (...)Schlagworte: Afrika, Äthiopien, Diskurs, Eigentum, Finanzierung, Stadtentwicklung, Wohnungseigentum

    Description / Table of Contents: Inhaltstext: Der bekannte Soziologe Mark Juergensmeyer untersucht die neue, aggressive Form des religiösen Aktivismus, die zum Kennzeichen vieler politischer Rebellen weltweit geworden ist. Von Al Qaida über die christlichen Milizen bis hin zu den Aufständischen im Irak und in Afghanistan zeichnet er eine hochaktuelle Landkarte dieses sehr komplexen religiösen Terrains und entwirrt das Zusammenspiel von Religion und Politik.Weil ein Großteil der heutigen Weltbevölkerung den säkularen Staat weder versteht, noch für erstrebenswert hält, kann und muss die internationale Gemeinschaft mit religiös geprägten Formen des Nationalismus konstruktiv umgehen, statt sie mit allzu schlichten Vorstellungen vom 'Fundamentalismus' zu verteufeln.

    Abstract: For centuries, East Africa has played a central role within the Indian Ocean world. The Arabs built the first trade networks there; these were laid siege to by the Portuguese in the sixteenth century, followed by British colonialists in the nineteenth century. An interregional trade linked different subregions of East Africa to other Indian Ocean economies. For example, Hindu merchants from Gujarat played a leading role in the ivory trade of East Africa during the past four centuries. In the nineteenth century, Zanzibar became a major center of the Asian slave trade. While slave trading, slave raiding, and their consequences provide one thematic focus of this book, the author also demonstrates that Indian Ocean commercial networks were much more complex in the range of products exchanged, including luxury goods and staple food items, as well as enforced labor.

    Abstract: The first comprehensive economic history of pre-colonial Madagascar, this study examines the island's role from 1750 to 1895 in the context of a burgeoning international economy and the rise of modern European imperialism. Challenging conventional portrayals of nineteenth-century Madagascar as a unified and progressive kingdom, this study reveals that the Merina of the central highlands attempted to found an island empire and through the exploitation of its human and natural resources build the economic and military might to challenge British and French pretensions in the region. Ultimately, the Merina failed due to imperial forced labour policies and natural disasters, the nefarious consequences of which (disease, depopulation, ethnic enmity) have in traditional histories been imputed to external capitalist and French colonial policies. Although by 1890, Madagascar was firmly integrated into a regional trade network stretching from South Africa to India, dominated by British Indians, Britain acknowledged French claims to Madagascar. France took 13 years to conquer Madagascar, finally succeeding only due to the internal collapse of Merina power. (Verlagsangaben)

    Abstract: In response to the challenge of combining multi-sited work with the need for depth in the study of social worlds, multi-sited ethnography has established itself in recent years as a fully-fledged research method among anthropologists and sociologists. With its exploration and development of multi-sited ethnography through a number of empirical experiences from cutting-edge research, this book presents its theoretical and practical facets, charting their development and identifying the directions of new research which uses this method as a means of examining social phenomena. Owing to its clear contribution to a rapidly emerging field, "Multi-Sited Ethnography" will appeal to anyone studying social actors or organizations across places. As such, scholars within human geography, anthropology, sociology, development studies and migration studies will be equally interested in this volume.

    Note: Quelle: (2009) Ethnoscripts, Bd. 10 (2008), 1, (S.102-124)Kurzfassung: Im diesem Artikel möchte ich einen ersten wissenschaftlichen Versuch unternehmen, die musikalische Kultur des Kuduru und seine Bedeutung sowohl in der angolanischen Hauptstadt als auch in der - vielfach als Vorort Luandas wahrgenommenen - zweiten Produktionsstätte Lissabon zu beleuchten. Kuduru als rein elektronische Musik ist derzeit tatsächlich als einzigartig für Afrika zu bewerten - abgesehen von einigen südafrikanischen Kwaito-Stücken gibt es keine nur mit Computertechnologie generierte Populärmusik. In den populären Jugendkulturen anderer afrikanischer Metropolen ist vielmehr lokaler Hip Hop und Reggae dominant. Die vielfach an zeitgenössische Musikentwicklungen herangetragene Kritik der Homogenisierung und Amerikanisierung durch globale Einflüsse lässt sich im Fall der Kuduru-Szene kaum bestätigen. Zwar handelt es sich hier um elektronische Musik, die sich musikalisch westlichen Musikkulturen annähert und mit diesen kreuzt, jedoch haben wir es nicht mit einer Rave-Kultur zu tun, wie sie in den urbanen Zentren Europas im Zusammenhang mit Techno- und Housemusik seit den späten 1980er Jahren entstanden ist. Im Kuduru geht es nicht um ´kollektive Tanzekstase, oder ´unreflektierte Spaß- und Partykultur, Elemente die als charakteristisch für die Rave-Kultur der 1990er Jahre gelten. Kuduru und seine Performance sind vielmehr individualistisch angelegt (...)

    Abstract: When the American colonies defeated Britain during the War for Independence, Native American leaders began to establish diplomatic relations with the new nation. Here, for the first time, is the little-known history of American Indians and American presidents, what they said and felt about one another, and what their words tell us about the history of the United States. Focused on major turning points in Native American history, these pages show how American Indians interpreted the power and prestige of the presidency, and advanced their own agenda for tribal sovereignty, from the age of George Washington to the present day. In addition to exploring a pantheon of Indian leaders, from Little Turtle to Robert Yellowtail, this book also provides new--and often unexpected--perspectives on the presidents. Thomas Jefferson, traditionally portrayed as the Indians' friend, emerges as a master of the art of Indian dispossession. Richard Nixon, long-tarnished by the Watergate scandal, was in reality a champion of tribal self-determination--a position that sprang, in part, from his Quaker origins. Using inaugural addresses, proclamations, Indian Agency records, private correspondence, memoirs, petitions, photographs, and objects from the collections of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, American Indians/American Presidents illuminates the relationship between these diverse leaders, the Native Americans' commitment to tribal self-determination, and the social, geographic, and political evolution of the United States over more than two centuries.

    Abstract: In a vast and all-embracing 2007 study of Africa, from the origins of mankind to the AIDS epidemic, John Iliffe refocuses its history on the peopling of an environmentally hostile continent. Africans have been pioneers struggling against disease and nature, and their social, economic and political institutions have been designed to ensure their survival. In the context of medical progress and other twentieth-century innovations, however, the same institutions have bred the most rapid population growth the world has ever seen. Africans: The History of a Continent is thus a single story binding living Africans to their earliest human ancestors. (Verlagsangaben)

    Note: Diplomarbeit, Magisterarbeit. - Abstract: Participatory development is the most widespread form of development today, where participation implies that beneficiaries are empowered to take development into their own hands in addition to being encouraged to cooperate with the government to ensure sustainability of their initiatives. Participatory development has been deemed particularly suitable for socially excluded groups, following the formula: participation equals inclusion and social exclusion is the opposite of participation. In this dissertation I will show that participation in development projects can take various forms and bring about unexpected outcomes. This finding is based on two field studies of NGO-led social inclusion interventions, one focusing on a tribe called Sahariyas in India and the other on a Roma (i.e. Gypsy) community in Montenegro. I argue that on one hand, the beneficiaries desired to have access to services and to be included in "the project of modernity" but on the other, they were much more interested in improving the wellbeing of their group than in working toward social integration with the mainstream. This state of affairs calls attention to some limitations that can be found in these participatory development projects, one of them being the tendency among NGOs to prioritize representations of project success over the real impact of their project on the beneficiaries.

    Keywords: Korruption Politik ; Globalisierung
    Abstract: Corruption is once again high on the international policy agenda as a result of globalization, the spread of democracy, and major scandals and reform initiatives. But the concept itself has been a focus for social scientists for many years, and new findings and data take on richer meanings when viewed in the context of long-term developments and enduring conceptual debates. This compendium, a much-enriched version of a work that has been a standard reference in the field since 1970, offers concepts, cases, and fresh evidence for comparative analysis. Building on a nucleus of classic studies laying out the nature and development of the concept of corruption, the book also incorporates recent work on economic, cultural, and linguistic dimensions of the problem, as well as critical analyses of approaches to reform. Two-thirds of the nearly fifty articles are especially written or translated for this volume, or based on selected journal literature published in the 1990s. The tendency to treat corruption as a synonym for bribery is illuminated by analyses of the diverse terminology and linguistic techniques that distinguish corruption problems in the major languages. Recent attempts to measure corruption and to analyze its causes and effects quantitatively are also critically examined. New contributions emphasize corruption phenomena in Asia and Africa, contrasts among region and regime types, the incidence of U.S. state corruption, European Party finance and corruption, assessments of international corruption ratings, analyses of international corruption control treaties, and unintended consequences of anti-corruption efforts. Cumulatively, the book combines descriptive richness, analytical thrust, conceptual awareness, and contextual articulation.

    Abstract: Janet Afary is a native of Iran and a leading historian. Her work focuses on gender and sexuality and draws on her experience of growing up in Iran and her involvement with Iranian women of different ages and social strata. These observations, and a wealth of historical documents, form the kernel of this book, which charts the history of the nation's sexual revolution from the nineteenth century to today. What comes across is the extraordinary resilience of the Iranian people, who have drawn on a rich social and cultural heritage to defy the repression and hardship of the Islamist state and its predecessors. It is this resilience, the author concludes, which forms the basis of a sexual revolution taking place in Iran today, one that is promoting reforms in marriage and family laws, and demanding more egalitarian gender and sexual relations.

    Abstract: Hitherto, the academic study of Indian cinema has focused primarily on Bollywood, despite the fact that the Tamil film industry, based in southern India, has overtaken Bollywood in terms of annual output. This book examines critically the cultural and cinematic representations in Tamil cinema. It outlines its history and distinctive characteristics, and proceeds to consider a number of important themes such as gender, religion, class, caste, fandom, cinematic genre, the politics of identity and diaspora. Throughout, the book cogently links the analysis to wider social, political and cultural phenomena in Tamil and Indian society. Overall, it is an exciting and original contribution to an under-studied field, also facilitating a fresh consideration of the existing body of scholarship on Indian cinema.

    Abstract: "500 years of indigenous resistance" is more than a history of European colonization of the Americas. In this slim volume, Gord Hill chronicles the resistance by Indigenous peoples, which limited and shaped the forms and extent of colonialism. This history encompasses North and South America, the development of nation-states, and the resurgence of Indigenous resistance in the post-WW2 era.

    Abstract: This collection of papers is the sixth volume in the Comparative Austronesian series. The papers that comprise this volume examine the concept of precedence as a form of local discourse and as a mechanism for ordering status, at different levels, within specific Austronesian-speaking societies. This is the first volume of its kind to focus entirely on precedence and to provide an explication of its social uses and the way in which it is contested. Each paper is ethnographically-focused and offers its own distinctive approach to the examination of precedence. The papers, however, relate closely to one another and are thus able to proffer a variety of comparative reflections.

    Abstract: In this work the late Irene Hilgers analyses the revival of Islam in the public sphere in postsocialist Uzbekistan, with particular reference to its role in the construction of a new national identity. Data collected during fieldwork in 2003-4 are contextualized with reference to the history of the Kokand Khanate and the suppression of religion during the Soviet era. Hilgers analyses current state ideology and the official structures for controlling religion, but also the continued significance of 'popular religion', as expressed at shrines and in healing rituals, and the tensions associated with 'Wahabi' currents. The tight association between Uzbek identity and Islam is also illustrated through the problems encountered by converts to Christianity. Throughout the work the author deploys her rich ethnographic materials to shed fresh light on major debates concerning secularization and the nature of Soviet and post-Soviet 'modernity'.

    Abstract: The finest living Africa correspondent delivers, after a lifetime's close observation of the miraculous continent, a landmark book on life and death in modern Africa. Dowden has now, after 35 years on the continent, written a memoiristic history of its peoples' experiences in the wake of the European withdrawal and the superpowers' arrival. He has been present at each of the continent's major crises and writes illuminatingly about them, but he is as passionate about the warmth, wisdom and joy he has encountered in peacetime, and the diversity of habits, attitudes and purposes to which he has been Britain's best witness. His book is no less than a benchmark publication on this most misunderstood and mishandled of continents. (Verlagsangaben)

    Abstract: Western medicine has conventionally separated music, science, and religion into distinct entities, yet traditional cultures throughout the world have always viewed music as a bridge that connects and balances the physical with the spiritual to promote health and healing. As people in even the most technologically advanced nations across the globe struggle with obtaining affordable and reliable healthcare, more and more people are now turning to these ancient cultural practices of holistic and ICAM healing (integrative, complementary, and alternative medicine). Beyond the Roof of the World convincingly demonstrates the relevance of medical ethnomusicology in light of the globally spreading ICAM approaches to health and healing. Revealing the Western separation of healing from spiritual and musical practices as a culturally determined phenomenon, Dr. Benjamin D. Koen confirms their underlying unity. In a place poetically known as the Roof of the World, the culture found within the towering Pamir Mountains of Badakhshan Tajikistan serves as the paradigm of ICAM healing practices. Koen's extensive research and immersion into the Badakhshani culture provides a well-balanced "insider" perspective while maintaining an "observer's" view, as he effectively bridges the widespread gaps between ethnomusicology, health science, and music therapy. Moving beyond the paradigm of the Pamir Mountains to reach out to cultures across the globe, Koen infuses scholarship with lived experience and applied practice as he shows spirituality and musicality to be intimately intertwined with one's physical life, health and healing.

    Abstract: How was an autocratic emperor replaced by a totalitarian dictator? An unexpected popular upsurge in February 1974 made the ancien regime of Emperor Haile Selassie buckle. The Derg, a group of army officers led by an obscure and ruthless major Mengistu Hailemariam, seized power by military coup in September 1974 and removed the Emperor. What was the 'red terror'? The callous executions of members of the old regime initiated a cult of violence. The Derg were united by the shedding of blood. Search and destroy campaigns against militants led on to the full-blown 'red terror' in which thousands of the regime's opponents were brutally murdered in the streets. In what way was 'transitional justice' administered? The main officials were found guilty of genocide and crimes against humanity by the Ethiopian Federal High Court and sentenced to life imprisonment. Some of the minor officials had already been sentenced to death, whilst President Mugabe has given Mengistu Hailemariam sanctuary in Zimbabwe. KJETIL TRONVOLL is Professor in Human Rights, Peace and Conflict Studies at the Norwegian Centre for Human Rights, University of Oslo; CHARLES SCHAEFER is Associate Professor of African History, Valparaiso University; GIRMACHEW ALEMU ANEME is a Research Fellow at the Norwegian Centre for Human Rights, University of Oslo.

    Abstract: Das Opfer ist eine der ursprünglichsten Formen, in denen der Mensch sich zum Transzendenten verhält. Man findet es in allen Kulturen und auf allen Stufen der Menschheitsentwicklung. Das Opfer ist wesentlich für das Verständnis der Identität, der Stabilität und möglicherweise sogar der Entstehung menschlicher Gesellschaften. Es ist ebenso von entscheidender Bedeutung für die Frage nach dem Grund und Sinn menschlichen Leidens. Das Opfer ist der elementarste Ausdruck für die Einsicht in die originär paradoxe Verfassung des menschlichen Daseins: dass unser Leben seinen Sinn nur in der Hingabe an das finden kann, was uns wichtiger ist als die Befriedigung unserer unmittelbaren Willensziele und letztlich sogar wichtiger als unsere Selbsterhaltung.Aber gibt es überhaupt "das Opfer"? Das deutsche Wort "Opfer" verbindet in sich schon die Bedeutung der beiden wesentlich zusammengehörigen, aber doch auch deutlich unterschiedenen Begriffe von sacrificium und victima. Der Mensch opfert, aber er wird auch geopfert. Es gibt das Fremdopfer und das Selbstopfer, das freiwillige und das unfreiwillige Opfer. Gerade wegen seiner universalen Dimensionen bedarf der Begriff des Opfers der philosophischen Analyse und Klärung, und dafür kommt wiederum dem Dialog zwischen östlichem und westlichem Philosophieren schlüsselhafte Bedeutung zu. Sacrifice is one of the most primordial forms through which the human being relates himself to the transcendent. Apparently, it can be found in all cultures and on all levels of evolution of mankind. Sacrifice is essential for the understanding of identity, stability and perhaps even the formation of human societies. It is likewise of decisive meaning when we try to understand and to master human suffering. Sacrifice is the most fundamental expression of the insight into the originally paradoxical constitution of human existence: namely the insight that our life can only find its meaning through the commitment to something which we regard as more important than the satisfaction of our short-term preferences and, eventually, as even more important than our personal survival. However, what does "sacrifice" really mean? The German word "Opfer" already combines in itself the meaning of the notions sacrificium and victima, which, although they essentially belong together, have clearly different meanings. The human being sacrifices, but he is also sacrificed. There is voluntary and involuntary sacrifice, and there is self sacrifice and what could be called sacrifice of the other. Thus, do we find more than "family resemblance" between these and the many other aspects of the meaning of this word? Especially because of its universal dimension, the notion of sacrifice is obviously in need of philosophical analysis and clarification. In this context, the dialogue between Eastern and Western philosophy becomes of key importance.

    Keywords: Geschlechterforschung Geschlechterrolle ; Alltag ; Identität, sexuelle
    Abstract: Why are we so insistent that women and men are different? This introduction to gender provides a fascinating, readable exploration of how society divides people into feminine women and masculine men. Gender and Everyday Life explores gender as a way of seeing women and men as not just biological organisms, but as people shaped by their everyday social world. Examining how gender has been understood and lived in the past; and how it is understood and done differently by different cultures and groups within cultures; Mary Holmes considers the strengths and limitations of different ways of thinking and learning to `do` gender.Key sociological and feminist ideas about gender are covered from Christine Pisan to Mary Wollstonecraft; and from symbolic interactionism to second wave feminism through to the work of Judith Butler. Gender and Everyday Life illustrates gender with a range of familiar and contemporary examples: everything from nineteenth century fashions in China and Britain, to discussions of what Barbie can tell us about gender in America, to the lives of working women in Japan. This book will be of great use and interest to students to gender studies, sociology and feminist theory. (Umschlagtext)

The core analysis centres on peace-building projects in Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan by three international aid agencies -an international NGO, a bilateral governmental donor and a multilateral agency - and the shared approach which the donors developed and used for conflict transformation. Using ethnographic case material, the author critically examines both the theoretical assumptions guiding this approach and its empirical outcomes when put into practice. Building on existing work in conflict transformation and the ethnography of international assistance in Central Asia, the book sheds light on Western attempts to transform the post-socialist societies of Central Asia and provides fresh empirical data on and insights into irrigation practices, social institutions, and state and identity formation in the Ferghana Valley. The book provides a novel and innovative approach to the study of development assistance and peace-building. It will be of interest to researchers in the field of Central Asian Studies, post-Soviet Studies, Development and Peace and Conflict Studies.
