Book Routes

    Book Details:
  • Author : James Clifford
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 1997-04-21
  • ISBN : 9780674779600
  • Pages : 424 pages

Download or read book Routes written by James Clifford and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1997-04-21 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When culture makes itself at home in motion, where does an anthropologist stand? In a follow-up to The Predicament of Culture, one of the defining books for anthropology in the last decade, James Clifford takes the proper measure: a moving picture of a world that doesn't stand still, that reveals itself en route, in the airport lounge and the parking lot as much as in the marketplace and the museum. In this collage of essays, meditations, poems, and travel reports, Clifford takes travel and its difficult companion, translation, as openings into a complex modernity. He contemplates a world ever more connected yet not homogeneous, a global history proceeding from the fraught legacies of exploration, colonization, capitalist expansion, immigration, labor mobility, and tourism. Ranging from Highland New Guinea to northern California, from Vancouver to London, he probes current approaches to the interpretation and display of non-Western arts and cultures. Wherever people and things cross paths and where institutional forces work to discipline unruly encounters, Clifford's concern is with struggles to displace stereotypes, to recognize divergent histories, to sustain "postcolonial" and "tribal" identities in contexts of domination and globalization. Travel, diaspora, border crossing, self-location, the making of homes away from home: these are transcultural predicaments for the late twentieth century. The map that might account for them, the history of an entangled modernity, emerges here as an unfinished series of paths and negotiations, leading in many directions while returning again and again to the struggles and arts of cultural encounter, the impossible, inescapable tasks of translation.

Book New Routes for Diaspora Studies

Download or read book New Routes for Diaspora Studies written by Sukanya Banerjee and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-11 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Offers a welcome addition to the literature on migration by using the springboard of ‘diaspora’ to address the cross-border movements of people.” —Rhacel Parreñas, Brown University Study of diasporas provides a useful frame for reimagining locations, movements, identities, and social formations. This volume explores diaspora as historical experience and as a category of analysis. Using case studies drawn from African and Asian diasporas and immigration in the United States, the contributors interrogate ideas of displacement, return, and place of origin as they relate to diasporic identity. They also consider how practices of commensality become grounds for examining identity and difference and how narrative and aesthetic forms emerge through the context of diaspora. Contributions by Crispin Bates, Martin A. Berger, Rachel Ida Buff, Marina Carter, Betty Joseph, Parama Roy, Jenny Sharpe, Todd Shepard, and Lok Siu

Book Routes of Compromise

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael K. Bess
  • Publisher : U of Nebraska Press
  • Release : 2017-12-01
  • ISBN : 0803299346
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Routes of Compromise written by Michael K. Bess and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Routes of Compromise Michael K. Bess studies the social, economic, and political implications of road building and state formation in Mexico through a comparative analysis of Nuevo León and Veracruz from the 1920s to the 1950s. He examines how both foreign and domestic actors, working at local, national, and transnational levels, helped determine how Mexico would build and finance its roadways. While Veracruz offered a radical model for regional construction that empowered agrarian communities, national consensus would solidify around policies championed by Nuevo León’s political and commercial elites. Bess shows that no single political figure or central agency dominated the process of determining Mexico's road-building policies. Instead, provincial road-building efforts highlight the contingent nature of power and state formation in midcentury Mexico.
