Описание:
Narrating Nomadism provides an unflinching account of ethnic groups and nomadic communities across the world that were branded as 'criminal' during colonial times. It explores the tragic effect of the new identity imposed on them, the traumatic survival of these communities and cultures, and the creative expression of this experience in their arts and literature in the form of resistance.
Presenting specific contexts and locations of cultural devastation in history, the volume traces colonial social imagination as such, showing how the grossly misperceived non-sedentary communities in the colonies were subjected to the mission of 'settling' them. The essays presented here document these alternative histories from perspectives ranging from literary criticism and art history to ethnography and socio-linguistics, highlighting in what ways different nomadic communities negotiate discrimination and challenge in contemporary times, while finding remarkable convergence in their local histories and collective testimonies.
This anthology opens up a new area in postcolonial studies as well as cultural anthropology by bringing the viewpoint of marginalized communities and their cultural rights to bear upon history, society and culture. It places an activist's 'view from below' at the centre of literary interpretation, engages with oral history more substantially than folklore studies usually do, and brings together several historical narratives hitherto unexplored. This will be essential for students of anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, history, linguistics, post-colonial studies, literature and tribal studies, as well as the general reader.

Описание: Political revolutions, economic meltdowns, mass ideological conversions and collective innovation adoptions occur often; nevertheless, when they happen, they tend to be the least expected. Taking as evidence two Middle Eastern uprisings, as well as behavioural experiments of collective risk-taking, Hassanpour offers an explanation based on a novel paradigm of `leading from the periphery`.

Описание: In meiner Magisterarbeit untersuche ich drei zeitgenossische Spielfilme - V for Vendetta, Munich und Children of Men - in Hinblick auf ihre Gewalterzahlung. Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit ist die Uberlegung, da sich die grundsatzliche mo- lische und kunstlerische Problematik in der Darstellung von Gewalt im Film im Falle von 9/11 noch verscharft. Zum einen wurde das Medium Film beschuldigt, insbesondere der spektakulare Actionfilm, die virtuelle Vorlage fur die Terror- tacken geliefert zu haben: Die Kollision der Flugzeuge, die brennenden und kollabierenden Twin Towers und die Panik auf den Straen mutete vielen an wie aus einem Actionfilm entsprungen. Zum anderen wurde unmittelbar nach den Angriffen eine gewisse Zuruckhaltung und Rucksicht bezuglich der grafischen Darstellung eines traumatischen Ereignisses wie 9/11 erwartet. Die Fiktion selbst schien Realitat geworden zu sein, und die traumatische Realitat war fur den Moment in ihrer Ganze nicht zu verarbeiten oder zu begreifen. Sowohl die g- fisch-realistische Gewaltdarstellung als auch das Spektakel gehoren jedoch zum festen Repertoire traditioneller Erzahltechnik des Terrorismus- und Actionfilms. Meine Arbeit behandelt die Antworten auf diese kunstlerischen Herausf- derungen in drei Actionfilmen, die wenige Jahre nach 9/11 erschienen. Diese Filme erzahlen Geschichten uber Terrorismus im Actionfilm-Format und erst- len aktuelle politische Bezuge. Die Gewalterzahlung jedes Filmes wird in jeweils drei Abschnitten untersucht, in Hinblick auf Inhalt, filmische Darstellungs- thoden und Referenzen auf politische Entwicklungen bzw. auf die eingangs sk- zierte Problematik. Der erste Abschnitt behandelt Rechtfertigungsmuster von Gewalt und die Gegenuberstellung von Terrorismus mit anderen Formen der Gewalt.
Описание: Narrating Love and Violence is an ethnographic exploration of women’s stories from the Himalayan valley of Lahaul, in the region of Himachal Pradesh, India, focusing on how both, love and violence emerge (or function) at the intersection of gender, tribe, caste, and the state in India. Himika Bhattacharya privileges the everyday lives of women marginalized by caste and tribe to show how state and community discourses about gendered violence serve as proxy for caste in India, thus not only upholding these social hierarchies, but also enabling violence. The women in this book tell their stories through love, articulated as rejection, redefinition and reproduction of notions of violence and solidarity. Himika Bhattacharya centers the women’s narratives as a site of knowledge-beyond love and beyond violence. This book shows how women on the margins of tribe and caste know both, love and violence, as agents wishing to re-shape discourses of caste, tribe and community.
