Download or read book La historia cultural written by Philippe Poirrier and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2015-05-16 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde hace dos o tres décadas la historia cultural ocupa un lugar preferente en la escena historiográfica, aunque con desfases cronológicos y distintas modalidades dependiendo de las circunstancias nacionales y, en este sentido, se impone una aproximación comparativa. El presente volumen pretende inscribirse en esta perspectiva, preguntándose por la realidad de un «giro cultural» en la historiografía mundial. Los numerosos colaboradores han aceptado responder a un plan de trabajo en el que, partiendo de la situación historiográfica de cada país, se analicen las modalidades de surgimiento y de estructuración de la historia cultural. La meta buscada no es normativa y contempla un planteamiento que combina el análisis de las obras, las singularidades de las coyunturas historiográficas y la organización de los mercados universitarios.

Book excerpt: El poder de la identidad —el segundo volumen de la trilogía La era de la información, de Manuel Castells— analiza la dinámica social, política y cultural asociada con la transformación tecnológica de nuestras sociedades y con la globalización de la economía. Muestra la importancia de la identidad cultural, religiosa y nacional como fuente de significado para las personas, y las implicaciones de este hecho para los movimientos sociales. Estudia las movilizaciones populares contra la globalización sin freno de la riqueza y el poder, así como la formación de proyectos alternativos de organización social, como los que representan el movimiento ecologista y el feminista. Asimismo estudia la crisis del estado nación y su transformación gradual en estado red. Y pone de relieve la crisis de la democracia política a consecuencia de las dificultades de la gobernanza internacional y del sometimiento de la política a los dictados de la política mediática y la política del escándalo. Esta segunda edición, considerablemente ampliada, actualiza y profundiza el análisis de esos temas e incorpora nuevas secciones sobre Al Qaeda y las redes terroristas globales, el movimiento antiglobalización, el unilateralismo estadounidense y los conflictos de la gobernanza global, la crisis de legitimidad política en todo el mundo y la teoría del estado red.

  • Author : Roberta Sassatelli
  • Publisher : SAGE
  • Release : 2007-05-17
  • ISBN : 9781412911818
  • Pages : 254 pages

Download or read book Consumer Culture written by Roberta Sassatelli and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2007-05-17 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Roberta Sassatelli has written a thorough and wide-ranging synthetic account of social scientific research on consumption which will set the standard for the second generation of textbooks on cultures of consumption. Consumer Culture is an appealing and lucid introduction to the major themes - historical and contemporary, theoretical and empirical - surrounding the growth, nature and consequences of consumer culture. It will be of professional interest as well as serving a student audience' - Alan Warde, University of Manchester Showing the cultural and institutional processes that have brought the notion of the 'consumer' to life, this book guides the reader on a comprehensive journey through the history of how we have come to understand ourselves as consumers in a consumer society and reveals the profound ambiguities and ambivalences inherent within. While rooted in sociology, Sassatelli draws on the traditions of history, anthropology, geography and economics to give: - A history of the rise of consumer culture around the world; - A richly illustrated analysis of theory from neo-classical economics, to critical theory, to theories of practice and ritual de-commoditization; and - A compelling discussion of the politics underlying our consumption practices. An exemplary introduction to the history and theory of consumer culture, this book provides nuanced answers to some of the most central questions of our time.

Book Transforming Modernity

    Book Details:
  • Author : Néstor García Canclini
  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2010-06-28
  • ISBN : 0292789076
  • Pages : 148 pages

Download or read book Transforming Modernity written by Néstor García Canclini and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is popular culture merely a process of creating, marketing, and consuming a final product, or is it an expression of the artist's surroundings and an attempt to alter them? Noted Argentine/Mexican anthropologist Néstor García Canclini addresses these questions and more in Transforming Modernity, a translation of Las culturas populares en el capitalismo. Based on fieldwork among the Purépecha of Michoacán, Mexico, some of the most talented artisans of the New World, the book is not so much a work of ethnography as of philosophy—a cultural critique of modernism. García Canclini delineates three interpretations of popular culture: spontaneous creation, which posits that artistic expression is the realization of beauty and knowledge; "memory for sale," which holds that original products are created for sale in the imposed capitalist system; and the tourist outlook, whereby collectibles are created to justify development and to provide insight into what capitalism has achieved. Transforming Modernity argues strongly for popular culture as an instrument of understanding, reproducing, and transforming the social system in order to elaborate and construct class hegemony and to reflect the unequal appropriation and distribution of cultural capital. With its wide scope, this book should appeal to readers within and well beyond anthropology—those interested in cultural theory, social thought, and Mesoamerican culture.
