‎In The Smaller Scope Of Conscience The Struggle For National Repatriation Legislation 1986-1990‎

‎University of Arizona Press Tucson: 2014. Softcover. Brand new book. In 1989 The National Museum of the American Indian Act NMAIA was successfully passed after a long and intense struggle. One year later the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act NAGPRA followed. These federal repatriation statutes�arguably some of the most important laws in the history of anthropology museology and American Indian rights�enabled Native Americans to reclaim human remains funerary objects sacred objects and objects of cultural patrimony. Twenty years later the controversy instigated by the creation of NMAIA and NAGPRA continues to simmer. In the Smaller Scope of Conscience is a thoughtful and detailed study of the ins and outs of the four-year process behind these laws. It is a singular contribution to the history of these issues with the potential to help mediate the ongoing debate by encouraging all sides to retrace the steps of the legislators responsible for the acts. Few works are as detailed as McKeown's account which looks into bills that came prior to NMAIA and NAGPRA and combs the legislative history for relevant reports and correspondence. Testimonies documents and interviews from the primary players of this legislative process are cited to offer insights into the drafting and political processes that shaped NMAIA and NAGPRA. Above all else this landmark work distinguishes itself from earlier legislative histories with the quality of its analysis. Invested and yet evenhanded in his narrative McKeown ensures that this journey through history�through the strategies and struggles of different actors to effect change through federal legislation�is not only accurate but eminently intriguing. "This book is a careful thoughtful and detailed study of the ins and outs of making one of the most important laws in the history of anthropology the museum world and American Indian rights. It is a singular contribution to the literature."�Chip Colwell-Chanthaphonh author of Massacre at Camp Grant: Forgetting and Remembering Apache History "A fascinating window into the American psyche itself."�Museum Anthropology "A thorough and highly detailed history."�The Chronicles of Oklahoma "A masterful history of how NAGPRA came to be. . . . An invaluable aid to lawyers museum authorities and scientists who hope to work with human remains or sacred objects and tribal officials who hope to protect them."�Great Plains Research In the Smaller Scope of Conscience University of Arizona Press, Tucson: 2014 paperback‎

‎Place, power, media : mediated responses to globalization.‎

‎New York ; Bern ; Berlin ; Vienna : Peter Lang, 2018. VI, 232 S., Ill. Originalbroschur.‎

‎Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - Place, Power, Media: Mediated Responses to Globalization is a compelling, interdisciplinary exploration of how media practices and communication rituals are connected to larger economic, social, and political processes in a globalizing world. Through a rich variety of media texts, authors examine how daily, mundane, and interpersonal processes help shape ?our? place in the world, a placement that is integrally connected to social relations at the global level. Denoting a sense of geography as well as demarcating diverse social positionings, place is understood as the result of historical and contemporary discourses occurring on a range of scales and within different cultural, aesthetic, and political contexts. The authors argue that the construction, restoration, configuration, and representation of place is an important project at multiple levels; what meanings are derived from it, what meanings are infused, who the key players are, what power struggles are inherent?these issues offer rich areas of study for global media scholars interested in the place-making powers of media.- Contents: Linda Jean Kenix: Authenticity and Participation as a Radicalized Tourist Place In Post-earthquake Christchurch -- Divya McMillin: Citizen Media and Civic Engagement in Globalizing Cities -- Carol-Mei Barker: Shanghai's Migrant Bodies and Global Spaces: Zhao Dayong's Street Life (2006) -- Jo Smith: Pluralizing Notions of Place through Maori Food TV -- Danica Sterud Miller, Puyallup Nation: Anishinaabe Storytelling and the Federal Narrative in Louise Erdrich's Tracks -- Oli Wilson: Revisiting Place and Identity in Indigenous Popular Music: Lokal Stylistic Frameworks in Papua New Guinea -- Kimbra L.

‎Cet ouvrage regroupe deux textes écrits par l'anthropologue Margaret Mead : Adolescence à Samoa (1928) et Trois sociétés primitives de Nouvelle-Guinée (1935), publiés en France dans le même volume en 1963. L'auteur y remet en cause les évidences communément acquises concernant le rôle de chacun dans la société contemporaine. Elle analyse, à partir de ses observations de terrain, les différences de relations entre hommes et femmes. Chez les Samoans, le calme et la tolérance envers les relations multiples ou l'homosexualité sont de rigueur. Chez les Arapeshs, tout s'organise autour des enfants. Chez les Mundugumors, l'agressivité et l'individualisme sont de mise. Chez les Chambulis enfin, les hommes sont occupés à plaire aux femmes, car celles-ci possèdent le pouvoir économique. Margaret Mead conclut que les spécificités sont culturelles. Ainsi, les rôles occidentaux (mâle dominant et femme soumise) ne sont qu'une variante parmi une infinité de possibles. Ces textes passionnants, écrits il y a près de cent ans, nous plongent dans un délicieux exotisme désormais révolu.‎
