Описание:
Border Conditions combines history and memory studies with literary and cultural studies to examine lives at the limits of contemporary Europe—those of the half-million Russian-speakers who live in Latvia. Since the fall of the USSR in 1991, Latvia's Russian-speakers have balanced between Russia and Europe and between a socialist past, a capitalist and liberal present, and the illiberal regime rising in the Russian Federation. Kevin M. F. Platt describes how the members of this population have worked to define themselves through art, literature, cultural institutions, film, and music—and how others, from the Russian Federation or the Latvian state, have sought to define them. Efforts to make sense of the border condition of Russian-speakers in Latvia often raise more questions than they answer—not just about this population, but about competing world orders on all sides. At the end of the Cold War, many anticipated that societies across the globe could come to consensus about the meaning of past history and the bases for a just politics in the present. The view from the borders of Europe demonstrates the deep contradictions pertaining to fundamental terms such as empire, state socialism, liberalism, and nation that have made it impossible to achieve such a consensus.
Platt decenters the study of history and memory in Eastern Europe, refocusing the examination of state socialism's aftermath around questions of empire and post-colonialism. Border Conditions helps us understand the distinctions between Russian and Western worldviews driving military confrontation to this day.

Unjust Conditions follows the lives and labors of poor mothers in rural Peru, richly documenting the ordeals they face to participate in mainstream poverty alleviation programs. Championed by behavioral economists and the World Bank, conditional cash transfer (CCT) programs are praised as efficient mechanisms for changing poor people's behavior. While rooted in good intentions and dripping with the rhetoric of social inclusion, CCT programs' successes ring hollow, based solely on metrics for children's attendance at school and health appointments. Looking beyond these statistics reveals a host of hidden costs for the mothers who meet the conditions. With a poignant voice and keen focus on ethnographic research, Tara Patricia Cookson turns the reader's gaze to women's care work in landscapes of grossly inadequate state investment, cleverly drawing out the tensions between social inclusion and conditionality.

Описание:
The provocative title of this book is deliberately and challengingly universalist, matching the theoretically experimental essays, where contributors try different ideas to answer distinct concerns regarding cosmopolitanism. Leading anthropologists explore what cosmopolitanism means in the context of everyday life, variously viewing it as an aspect of kindness and empathy, as tolerance, hospitality and openness, and as a defining feature of pan-human individuality. The chapters thus advance an existential critique of abstract globalization discourse. The book enriches interdisciplinary debates about hitherto neglected aspects of contemporary cosmopolitanism as a political and moral project, examining the form of its lived effects and offering new ideas and case studies to work with.
