Book Synopsis Global Culture, Island Identity by : Karen Fog Olwig
Download or read book Global Culture, Island Identity written by Karen Fog Olwig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-10-05 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at the development of cultural identity in the global context, this text uses the approach of historical anthropology. It examines the way in which the West Indian Community of Nevis, has, since the 1600s, incorporated both African and European cultural elements into the framework of social life, to create an Afro-Caribbean culture that was distinctive and yet geographically unbounded - a "global culture". The book takes as its point of departure the processes of cultural interaction and reflectivity. It argues that the study of cultural continuity should be guided by the notion of cultural complexity involving the continuous constitution, development and assertion of culture. It emphasizes the interplay between local and global cultures, and examines the importance of cultural display for peoples who have experienced the process of socioeconomic marginalization in the Western world.

Download or read book The Fog Island Argument written by Thorbjoern Mann and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007-06-25 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores two issues about design: The first, evaluation of arguments used in discussions about design, planning, policy proposals, a subject neglected by traditional logic presents proposals for their systematic assessment. The second is based on the insight that design arguments contain premises spanning the entire range of types of human knowledge, whose validation draws on all approaches to human inquiry (including but not limited to scientifi c method). A general education course using exposure to design tasks therefore would provide students with a better framework for exploring and understanding all these inquiry forms, and how they relate to one another.
