Ivan Illich, l'implicito pedagogico. La filosofia del limite come modello di educazione ambientale
br. La tesi argomenta le principali tesi di Ivan Illich in tema di mobilità, scuola e relazioni sociali. Contiene documenti inediti in Italia: il manifesto dei descolarizzatori, le lettere di John Holt, alcuni brani commentati al CIDOC (centro di documentazione gestito dal filosofo); periodici italiani e spagnoli degli anni Settanta e bollettini delle scuole di quartiere autogestite. Si argomenta in particolare la tesi secondo la quale la scuola è una struttura storicamente determinata, appoggiata dalla borghesia e più tardi dalla classe proletaria per legittimare la 'emancipazione', ovvero la scalata sociale dei più adatti in una società consumistica. Parole come 'democrazia', 'emancipazione', 'sostenibilità' e 'risorse' in coerenza con la prospettiva epistemica dell'autore, risultano ribaltate rispetto al significato comunemente diffuso, dimostrando la loro implicazione nelle ingiustizie sociali e nell'autodistruzione dell'uomo attraverso le guerre, la competizione e il degrado sociale e naturalistico. Nelle conclusioni si accenna a scuola 'altre' nate pensando ad un mondo 'altro' dal modello consumistico-occidentale.

Ethel St. Clair Grim Wood
My Three Years in Manipur [Hardcover]
Memoirs and private diarie of spouses of important leaders, statesmen, diplomats and civil servants have a significance of their own in the history of mankind. The account of Ethel St. Clair Grimwood, wife of Frank Grimwood, the ill fated Political Agent of Manipur during the close of the lase century, is the one that writes with imagination and records certain facts and observations that go a long way in promoting a clear understanding of the area covered. Ethel’s book is not merely a few hundred pages of light reading material on the pleasantness of the landscape, but also as first rate literature on anthropology and the history of Manipur. <br><br>Manipur, lying between Cachar, the Kubo Valley and Nagaland is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Starting with a readable account of the Grimwoods’ arrival in Manipur and their impressions of the place, the book goes on to describe Cachar and the hill tribes : Maos, Tongkhuls, Kukis, etc. <br><br>The Grimwood couple naturally came in close contact with the ruling royal family and watched their sports, customs and illusive ways of life; the music, dance and other inseparables of the Meitheis and other tribal groups––come in for vivid eyewitness descriptions as a corollary. The Title 'My Three Years in Manipur written/authored/edited by Ethel St. Clair Grim Wood', published in the year 2008. The ISBN 9788121201353 is assigned to the Hardcover version of this title. This book has total of pp. 204 (Pages). The publisher of this title is Gyan Publishing House. This Book is in English. The subject of this book is Anthropology / Tribal Studies / North-East Indian Studies. Size of the book is 14.34 x 22.59 cms Vol:-

ETKIN NINA L
Foods Of Association: Biocultural Perspectives On Foods And Beverages Mediate Sociability
University of Arizona Press Tucson: 2009. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. This fascinating book examines the biology and culture of foods and beverages that are consumed in communal settings with special attention to their health implications. Nina Etkin covers a wealth of topics exploring human evolutionary history the Slow Food movement ritual and ceremonial foods caffeinated beverages spices the street foods of Hawaii and northern Nigeria and even bottled water. Her work is framed by a biocultural perspective that considers both the physiological implications of consumption and the cultural construction and circulation of foods. For Etkin the foods and beverages we consume are simultaneously "biodynamic substances and cultural objects." The book begins with a look at the social eating habits of our primate relatives and discusses our evolutionary adaptations. It then offers a history of social foods in the era of European expansion with a focus on spices and "caffeinated cordials." Of course there were some powerful physiological consequences of eating foods brought home by returning explorers and those are considered too�along with consequences for native peoples. From there the book describes "street food" which is always served in communal settings. Etkin then scrutinizes ceremonial foods and beverages and considers their pharmacological effects as well. Her extensive examination concludes by assessing the biological and cultural implications of bottled water. While intended primarily for scholars this enticing book serves up a tantalizing smorgasbord of food for thought. University of Arizona Press, Tucson: 2009 hardcover
