Book Synopsis Identidades, relaciones y contextos by : Joan Bestard-Camps
Download or read book Identidades, relaciones y contextos written by Joan Bestard-Camps and published by Edicions Universitat Barcelona. This book was released on 2002 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro es fruto de un ejercicio intelectual llevado a cabo durante el año 2001 que al final resultó fascinante y altamente productivo. A una serie de antropólogas y antropólogos jóvenes con un trabajo de campo reciente se les planteó que presentaran desde su conocimiento etnográfico la cuestión de la identidad tanto desde el punto de vista relacional, como a partir de su conocimiento etnográfico local. Se trataba, pues, de un reto, que todas aceptaron gustosamente, de producir un argumento teórico a partir de su etnografía. El reto se cumplió ritualmente cada quince días en el seminario de post-grado del Departamento, donde cada autor presentó su argumento etnográfico, que fue debatido ampliamente y apasionadamente entre las asistentes al seminario, la mayoría estudiantes del programa de Doctorado. Fruto del planteamiento inicial, de la argumentación etnográfica de cada autor y de la discursión colectiva es el presente volumen que evidencia la vitalidad argumentativa de la joven antropología en nuestro país, así como la variedad de contextos etnográficos a partir de los que los jóvenes antropólogos producen sus propios conocimientos. Lejos está ya aquella época en que se decía que la antropología en nuestro país sólo se hacía en casa. En este volumen encontramos etnografías en cuatro continentes (Europa, África, Asia y América) y, sobre todo, una sofisticación en el argumento etnográfico que dialoga claramente con los problemas que la antropología como disciplina se plantea actualmente.

Book Synopsis Indigenous Science and Technology by : Kelly S. McDonough
Download or read book Indigenous Science and Technology written by Kelly S. McDonough and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about how Nahuas—native speakers of Nahuatl, the common language of the Aztec Empire and of more than 2.5 million Indigenous people today—have explored, understood, and explained the world around them in pre-invasion, colonial, and contemporary time periods. It is a deep dive into Nahua theoretical and practical inquiry related to the environment, as well as the dynamic networks in which Nahuas create, build upon, and share knowledges, practices, tools, and objects to meet social, political, and economic needs. In this work, author Kelly S. McDonough addresses Nahua understanding of plants and animals, medicine and ways of healing, water and water control, alphabetic writing, and cartography. Interludes between the chapters offer short biographical sketches and interviews with contemporary Nahua scientists, artists, historians, and writers, accompanied by their photos. The book also includes more than twenty full-color images from sources including the Florentine Codex, a sixteenth-century collaboration between Indigenous and Spanish scholars considered the most comprehensive extant source on the pre-Hispanic and early colonial Aztec (Mexica) world. In Mexico today, the terms “Indigenous” and “science and technology” are rarely paired together. When they are, the latter tend to be framed as unrecoverable or irreparably damaged pre-Hispanic traditions, relics confined to a static past. In Indigenous Science and Technology, McDonough works against such erroneous and racialized discourses with a focus on Nahua environmental engagements and relationalities, systems of communication, and cultural preservation and revitalization. Attention to these overlooked or obscured knowledges provides a better understanding of Nahua culture, past and present, as well as the entangled local and global histories in which they were—and are—vital actors.
Book Synopsis Native Peoples of the Gulf Coast of Mexico by : Alan R. Sandstrom
Download or read book Native Peoples of the Gulf Coast of Mexico written by Alan R. Sandstrom and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For too long, the Gulf Coast of Mexico has been dismissed by scholars as peripheral to the Mesoamerican heartland, but researchers now recognize that much can be learned from this region’s cultures. Peoples of the Gulf Coast—particularly those in Veracruz and Tabasco—share so many historical experiences and cultural features that they can fruitfully be viewed as a regional unit for research and analysis. Native Peoples of the Gulf Coast of Mexico is the first book to argue that the people of this region constitute a culture area distinct from other parts of Mexico. A pioneering effort by a team of international scholars who summarize hundreds of years of history, this encyclopedic work chronicles the prehistory, ethnohistory, and contemporary issues surrounding the many and varied peoples of the Gulf Coast, bringing together research on cultural groups about which little or only scattered information has been published. The volume includes discussions of the prehispanic period of the Gulf Coast, the ethnohistory of many of the neglected indigenous groups of Veracruz and the Huasteca, the settlement of the American Mediterranean, and the unique geographical and ecological context of the Chontal Maya of Tabasco. It provides descriptions of the Popoluca, Gulf Coast Nahua, Totonac, Tepehua, Sierra Ñähñu (Otomí), and Huastec Maya. Each chapter contains a discussion of each group’s language, subsistence and settlement patterns, social organization, belief systems, and history of acculturation, and also examines contemporary challenges to the future of each native people. As these contributions reveal, Gulf Coast peoples share not only major cultural features but also historical experiences, such as domination by Hispanic elites beginning in the sixteenth century and subjection to forces of change in Mexico. Yet as contemporary people have been affected by factors such as economic development, increased emigration, and the spread of Protestantism, traditional cultures have become rallying points for ethnic identity. Native Peoples of the Gulf Coast of Mexico highlights the significance of the Gulf Coast for anyone interested in the great encuentro between the Old and New Worlds and general processes of culture change. By revealing the degree to which these cultures have converged, it represents a major step toward achieving a broader understanding of the peoples of this region and will be an important reference work on these indigenous populations for years to come.

Book Synopsis Una ecología de las relaciones by : Philippe Descola
Download or read book Una ecología de las relaciones written by Philippe Descola and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considerado uno de los grandes antropólogos franceses del siglo XX, Philippe Descola realiza sus primeros trabajos de campo en la Amazonia. Como etnógrafo, convive durante años con los jíbaros achuar, observando la relación que estos amerindios mantienen con los demás seres de la naturaleza. Como etnólogo, demuestra que la tradicional oposición occidental entre naturaleza y cultura no se observa entre los achuar, quienes atribuyen características humanas a la naturaleza. Por último, como antropólogo, define cuatro formas de relación con el mundo —totemismo, animismo, naturalismo y analogismo— que ayudan a explicar la relación del hombre con su entorno. En un texto claro y didáctico, Philippe Descola repasa las principales etapas de su recorrido y nos ofrece una apasionante introducción a la práctica de la antropología y a una «ecología de las relaciones».

Book Synopsis Antropología de la integración by : Antonio Malo Pé
Download or read book Antropología de la integración written by Antonio Malo Pé and published by Ediciones Rialp. This book was released on 2020-03-23 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro procura superar las lagunas de los manuales de Antropología ya publicados. Para ello modifica la configuración de los temas y el modo de tratarlos, partiendo de la persona, en toda su complejidad constitutiva y existencial. Según la paradoja señalada por Heidegger, poseemos en nuestros días una información casi inabarcable sobre la persona, y sin embargo es muy poco lo que sabemos sobre ella. Para la gran mayoría, las principales cuestiones ?de dónde venimos, a dónde vamos? carecen de respuesta. ¿Cuál es la posición del hombre en el cosmos? ¿Es solo un mono inteligente? ¿Nuestras acciones son libres, o están condicionadas genéticamente? ¿Somos algo, o somos alguien?
Book Synopsis Designs and Anthropologies by : Keith M. Murphy
Download or read book Designs and Anthropologies written by Keith M. Murphy and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in this captivating volume demonstrate the importance and power of design and the ubiquitous and forceful effects it has on human life within the study of anthropology. The scholars explore the interactions between anthropology and design through a cross-disciplinary approach, and while their approaches vary in how they specifically consider design, they are all centered around the design-and-anthropology relationship. The chapters look at anthropology for design, in which anthropological methods and concepts are mobilized in the design process; anthropology of design, in which design is positioned as an object of ethnographic inquiry and critique; and design for anthropology, in which anthropologists borrow concepts and practices from design to enhance traditional ethnographic forms. Collectively, the chapters argue that bringing design and anthropology together can transform both fields in more than one way and that to tease out the implications of using design to reimagine ethnography—and of using ethnography to reimagine design—we need to consider the historical specificity of their entanglements.
