Download or read book Walks on the Wild Side written by Rolf Lindner and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 2004-05-10 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Stadt, der "dunkle Kontinent" Die Geschichte der Stadtforschung ist eine Geschichte der Erforschung "anderer Räume", der Quartiere der Armen, der Außenseiter. Entlang methodisch wie analytisch bahnbrechender Studien - von Henry Mayhews Großwerk über die Londoner Armen bis hin zum Projekt des Bourdieu-Schülers Loïc Wacquant, der das professionelle Boxen lernte, um die Chicagoer South-Side zu erkunden - lässt Rolf Lindner die Geschichte der Stadtforschung seit dem 19. Jahrhundert Revue passieren. Er führt in Themen und Methoden der Stadt-Ethnografie ein und berichtet auch von den Motiven und Obsessionen der Forscher, die es immer wieder in die unheimlichen Teile der Stadt gezogen hat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit der wachsenden Bedeutung der Städte im globalen Wettbewerb hat auch das Interesse an soziologischer Stadtforschung rapide zugenommen. Unverzichtbarer Referenzpunkt ist die Chicagoer Schule der Stadtsoziologie, die methodische Standards gesetzt hat und deren lebendige Studien des Großstadtlebens aus den 1920er und 30er Jahren bis heute faszinieren. In seinem 1990 erschienen und von der University of Chicago empfohlenen Buch schildert Rolf Lindner die Entstehung und das Vorgehen dieser berühmten Schule. Auf verblüffende Weise arbeitet er dabei die methodische und thematische Nähe der Stadtethnografie zur urbanen Reportage heraus.

Book Synopsis Transforming Urban Waterfronts by : Gene Desfor
Download or read book Transforming Urban Waterfronts written by Gene Desfor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In port cities around the world, waterfront development projects have been hailed both as spaces of promise and as crucial territorial wedges in twenty-first century competitive growth strategies. Frequently, these mega-projects have been intended to transform derelict docklands into communities of hope with sustainable urban economies—economies intended to both compete in and support globally-networked hierarchies of cities. This collection engages with major theoretical debates and empirical findings on the ways waterfronts transform and have been transformed in port-cities in North and South America, Europe, the Caribbean. It is organized around the themes of fixities (built environments, institutional and regulatory structures, and cultural practices) and flows (information, labor, capital, energy, and knowledge), which are key categories for understanding processes of change. By focusing on these fixities and flows, the contributors to this volume develop new insights for understanding both historical and current cases of change on urban waterfronts, those special areas of cities where land and water meet. As such, it will be a valuable resource for teaching faculty, students, and any audience interested in a broad scope of issues within the field of urban studies.
Book Synopsis The Sociology of Space by : Martina Löw
Download or read book The Sociology of Space written by Martina Löw and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author develops a relational concept of space that encompasses social structure, the material world of objects and bodies, and the symbolic dimension of the social world. Löw’s guiding principle is the assumption that space emerges in the interplay between objects, structures and actions. Based on a critical discussion of classic theories of space, Löw develops a new dynamic theory of space that accounts for the relational context in which space is constituted. This innovative view on the interdependency of material, social, and symbolic dimensions of space also permits a new perspective on architecture and urban development.
Book Synopsis Africa and Urban Anthropology by : Deborah Pellow
Download or read book Africa and Urban Anthropology written by Deborah Pellow and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-08 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers valuable anthropological insight into urban Africa, covering a range of cities across a continent that has become one of the fastest urbanizing geographic areas of the globe. Consideration is given to the structures, social formations, and rhythms that constitute the definition of an African city, town, or urban space, and to current concepts for thinking about African cities in the twenty-first century. The contributors examine topics including notions of belonging, the effects of globalization, colonialism, and transnationalism on African urban life, the cultural dimensions of infrastructure and public resources, mobility, labor issues, spatial organization, language, and popular culture trends, among other themes. The book reflects on how the ethnography of urban Africa fits within anthropology and urban studies, and on new theoretical concepts and methodologies that can be created through anthropological fieldwork in African cities. It will be of particular interest to scholars and students from anthropology, African studies and urban studies, as well as sociology and geography.

Download or read book The Mediterraneans written by Gisela Welz and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2001 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mediterranean world has long been an island for European thought and imagination. Anthropologically, the focus has been on tradition rather than modernity, on continuity rather than change, on borders rather than transgression. Today, the focus shifts to the interconnected turbulence of the present that challenges the imagination of a southern Other vis-a-vis a Northwestern Self and the notion of a homogenous, unanimous culture area. The emerging dialogue between Mediterranean and non-Mediterranean anthropologists has introduced new perspectives on southern mobilities and modernities across collapsing and (re)constructed borders as they are inserted and created by global, transnational and local cultural processes.
Book Synopsis Tradition, Democracy and the Townscape of Kyoto by : Christoph Brumann
Download or read book Tradition, Democracy and the Townscape of Kyoto written by Christoph Brumann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-06 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the historic capital of the country and the stronghold of the nation’s most celebrated traditions, the city of Kyoto holds a unique place in the Japanese imagination. Widely praised for the beauty of its townscape and natural environments, it is both a popular destination for tourists and home to one and a half million inhabitants. There has been a sustained, lively debate about how best to develop the city, with a large number of local government officials, citizen activists, urban planners, real-estate developers, architects, builders, proprietors, academic researchers, and ordinary Kyotoites involved in discussions, forming a highly peculiar social arena that has no match elsewhere in Japan. This book, based on extensive fieldwork and interviews, provides an ethnographic study of this particular social field. It analyses how people in Kyoto deal with their most cherished traditions, such as the traditional town houses and the famous Gion matsuri festival, which calls into question several of the standard social scientific assumptions about the functions of cultural heritage for present-day societies. The book looks at the way concerned citizens, government bureaucrats, and other important players interact with each other over contentious modern buildings, often with the best intentions but constrained by set role expectations and by the superior power of national-level regulations and agencies. This book contributes to debates on the social uses of tradition and heritage, and the question of how to create sustainable, liveable urban environments.
Book Synopsis City Life in Africa by : Katja Werthmann
Download or read book City Life in Africa written by Katja Werthmann and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-27 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to the anthropology of urban life in Africa, showing what ethnography can teach us about African city dwellers’ own notions, practices, and reflections. Social anthropologists have studied city life in Africa since the early 20th century. Their works have addressed a number of questions that are relevant until today: What happens to rural people who move to the city? What kinds of livelihoods do they pursue? How does city life affect moralities and practices connected with gender roles, marriage, parenthood, and intergenerational relations? In which social situations are ethnic and other collective identifications relevant? How do people make a home in the city? What forms of authority and leadership become relevant in urban governance? How do people talk about city life? This book asks what anthropologists have come to learn about Africans’ views on city life. It provides a critical acclaim of ethnographies in English, French, and German and elucidates anthropology’s contribution to understanding city life in Africa. It highlights the significance of female, African and Diaspora scholars for an emerging urban anthropology of Africa. The chapters are organized according to everyday activities of city dwellers: moving, connecting, governing, working, dwelling, and wayfinding. The book will be an essential read for students and researchers of social anthropology, African and urban studies, but also for professionals in research and development organizations, thinktanks, and other institutions concerned with urban Africa.
