The Object Reader Edited by R a i f o r d Gu i n s , Stony Brook University, USA and F i o n a Ca n d l i n , Birkbeck College, University of London Series: In Sight: Visual Culture This unique and groundbreaking collection frames the classic debates on objects and aims to generate new ones by reshaping the ways in which the object can be taught and studies, from a wide variety of disciplines and fields.

The Object Reader elucidates objects in many of their diverse roles, dynamics and capacities. Precisely because the dedicated study of objects does not reside neatly within a single discipline, this collection is comprised of numerous academic fields. Selected writing originates from: anthropology, art history, classical studies, critical theory, cultural studies, digital media, design history, disability studies, feminism, film and television studies, history, philosophy, psychoanalysis, social studies of science and technology, religious studies, and visual culture. The collection, composed of twentieth and twenty-first century writing also seeks to make its own contribution through original work, in the form of twenty-five short “object lessons” commissioned specifically for this project.

The Diaspora Strikes Back Caribbean Latino Tales of Learning and Turning J u a n F l o r e s, Hunter College and CUNY Graduate Center, USA Series: Cultural Spaces In The Diaspora Strikes Back the eminent ethnic and cultural studies scholar Juan Flores flips the process on its head: what happens to the home country when it is being constantly fed by emigrants returning from abroad? He looks at how “Nuyoricans” (Puerto Rican New Yorkers) have transformed the home country, introducing hip hop and modern New York culture to the Caribbean island. While he focuses on New York and Mayaguez (in Puerto Rico), the model is broadly applicable.

Cultural Intimacy

Cultural Anthropology

Social Poetics in the Nation-State

A Global Introduction Jack David Eller, Community College of Denver Cultural Anthropology: A Global Introduction is an accessible, ethnographically rich cultural anthropology textbook which gives a coherent and refreshingly new vision of the discipline and its subject matter—human diversity. The fifteen chapters and three extended case studies present all of the necessary areas of cultural anthropology, organizing them in conceptually and thematically meaningful and original ways. A full one-third of its content is dedicated to important global and historical cultural phenomena such as colonialism, nationalism, ethnicity and ethnic conflict, economic development, environmental issues, cultural revival, fundamentalism, and popular culture. The more conventional topics of anthropology (language, economics, kinship, politics, religion, race) are integrated into this broader discussion to reflect the changing content of contemporary courses.This well written and well organized text has been trialed both in the classroom and online. Designed for today’s students, Cultural Anthropology includes: Boxed in-chapter case studies and case studies on contemporary cultural controversies; Marginal glosses of key terms, cross-references, important recommended reading and useful websites; Chapter summaries and a comprehensive bibliography and index; Rich visual material including photographs, line drawings and tables; A support website with discussion questions, additional material and a model course.

M i ch a e l H e r z f e l d In this edition, Herzfeld includes more discussion about what cultural intimacy has come to mean for other authors and researchers, and how it can contribute to present studies of global processes and the forces that resist them.

Current Concepts and Controversies

Media and Middle Class Moms

Ge o r g e A l a n Ya n ce y , University of North Texas, USA and R i ch a r d L e w i s , J r., University of Texas at San Antonio, USA A unique book offering both a research overview and practical advice for its readers, this text allows students to gain a solid understanding of the research that has been generated on several important issues surrounding multiracial families, including intimate relations, family dynamics, transracial adoptions, and other topics of personal and scholarly interest.

Co n r a d K o t t a k, University of Michigan, USA and L a r a J . D e s ca r t e s , University of Connecticut, USA Written by nationally recognized anthropologists Conrad Kottak and Lara Descartes, this ethnography of largely white, middle class families in a town in the midwest explores the role that the media play in influencing how those families cope with everyday work/family issues. The book insightfully reports that families struggle with, and make work/family decisions based largely on the images and ideas they receive from media sources, though they strongly deny being so influenced.

Series: Japan Anthropology Workshop Series

Human Sexuality is a unique textbook that provides a broad analysis of this crucial basic aspect of life. Utilizing viewpoints across cultural and national boundaries, and incorporating evolutionary and psychological perspectives, four major lines of evidence and knowledge are comprehensively discussed, including: evolutionary theory, primatology, the cross-cultural record and contemporary issues, and emphasizing anthropological contributions while incorporating psycho-social perspectives.

This book explores the degree to which traditional patterns of both houses and households are changing in Japan. It examines the social, economic and urban changes which are causing this, discusses the shift from the stem to nuclear family and to large numbers of single person and childless couple households.

Gender Pluralism Southeast Asia Since Early Modern Times M i ch a e l G. P e l e t z , Emory University, USA This book examines three big ideas: difference, legitimacy, and pluralism. Of chief concern is how people construe and deal with variation among fellow human beings. Why under certain circumstances do people embrace even sanctify differences, or at least begrudgingly tolerate them, and why in other contexts are people less receptive to difference, sometimes overtly hostile to it and bent on its eradication? What are the cultural and political conditions conducive to the positive valorization and acceptance of difference? And, conversely, what conditions undermine or erode such positive views and acceptance? This book examines pluralism in gendered fields and domains in Southeast Asia since the early modern era, which historians and anthropologists of the region commonly define as the period extending roughly from the 15th to the 18th centuries.

POLITICAL ANTHROPOLOGY

Rejecting Refugees

Sacred Ecology

Political Asylum in the 21st Century

F i k r e t B e r k e s , University of Manitoba, Canada

Ca r o l B o h m e r , Dartmouth College, USA and A m y S h u m a n , Ohio State University, USA

Sacred Ecology is a pioneering study of the complex system of relationships†between the earth and its inhabitants. In its exploration of how humans can develop a more acceptable relationship with the environment that supports them, it examines bodies of knowledge held by indigenous peoples around the world and asks how we can absorb and utilize such knowledge.

Using both in-depth accounts by asylum applicants and interviews with lawyers and others involved, this book takes the reader on a journey through the process of applying for asylum in both the United States and Great Britain.
