Download or read book Tobacco Town Futures written by Ann E. Kingsolver and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2010-12-29 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situated between the foothills of Appalachia to the east and bluegrass country to the west, Nicholas County has been home to small tobacco farms in rural Kentucky for the past 200 years. But now, in the midst of tremendous economic changes generated by the movement of both textile jobs and tobacco production to other countries, residents of Nicholas County face an uncertain future. Based on twenty-five years of research, Kingsolvers longitudinal ethnography of Nicholas County, her home community, synthesizes geographical, historical, economic, and political processes that have shaped lifeways and worldviews. She documents the perspectives of farmers, factory workers, politicians, those pursuing new niches in the labor market, and middle school students in search of alternative futures. Countering stereotypes, Kingsolver emphasizes the skills and agency of rural residents and demonstrates how people in widely dispersed and seemingly isolated communities in the world are connected through capitalist logic and practice, thereby illuminating globalizations far-reaching effects.

Book excerpt: Pioneer life and local history have been a passion for Robert and Anna Campbell, lifelong residents of Nicholas County, West Virginia. They were amazed at how Irish, English, and Scottish ancestors survived in the mountains for generations. Robert was known as a storyteller. Family and friends would sit on the porch or in the living room for hours and listen to his detailed accounts of family and life in the central West Virginia mountains. One of Robert's favorite stories was telling how his grandfather Campbell built a dynamo to produce electricity for the family's mill on Muddlety Creek and was instrumental in getting electricity to the town of Summersville. Anna loves history and writing. She enjoys talking and corresponding with others to learn more about ancestors and families who settled in the area.The Campbells were approached by the owner of The Nicholas Chronicle to write stories for a weekly newspaper column, The Passage of Time, published from 2008-2012. They received positive response to the stories and had several requests that the stories be published in a book. Robert passed away in 2015, but the stories that he and Anna cherished and shared with others will continue to live on. The stories with pictures portray the culture, character, creativity, Christian values, and the caring people that made Nicholas County, West Virginia a unique place to live for generations.Some of the families in the stories include: Starbuck, Campbell, Reynolds, Murphy, Gregory, Breckinridge, Alderson, Brown, Cavendish, Harlow, McClung, Tyree, Bays, Duffy, Bryant, Baker, Hill, Sebert, Whitman, Beirne, Dorsey, Cummings, and Grose. The stories loosely trace the roots of Nicholas County residents from the 1600's to 2012. Events such as World War II and how it impacted the people of Nicholas County are featured in several stories. Businesses such as Campbell Electric Company, Walker Brothers (brick and pottery), Peters Creek Coal Company, and Ely-Thomas Lumber Company are featured in the stories. Other stories focus on community establishments such as schools, churches, cemeteries, and notable buildings. Pioneer life stories on aprons; quilts and coverlets; wash day in Appalachia; crocks, churns, and stone jars; handwritten letters and cards; home deliveries; and children's games provide insights into earlier times.Robert and Anna Campbell turned their appreciation of those who preceded them into a gift for the people of Nicholas County and beyond. The stories are the threads that bind the past to the present to create a tapestry that provides context for the future.

Book Synopsis The Anthropology of Postindustrialism by : Ismael Vaccaro
Download or read book The Anthropology of Postindustrialism written by Ismael Vaccaro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how mechanisms of postindustrial capitalism affect places and people in peripheral regions and de-industrializing cities. While studies of globalization tend to emphasize localities newly connected to global systems, this collection, in contrast, analyzes the disconnection of communities away from the market, presenting a range of ethnographic case studies that scrutinize the framework of this transformative process, analyzing new social formations that are emerging in the voids left behind by the de-industrialization, and introducing a discussion on the potential impacts of the current economic and ecological crises on the hyper-mobile model that has characterized this recent phase of global capitalism and spatially uneven development.
