    Studying Diversity, Migration and Urban Multiculture (2021)
    UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-04-18
    Description: Anti-migrant populism is on the rise across Europe, and diversity and multiculturalism are increasingly presented as threats to social cohesion. Yet diversity is also a mundane social reality in urban neighbourhoods. With this in mind, Studying Diversity, Migration and Urban Multiculture explores how we can live together with and in difference. What is needed for conviviality to emerge and what role can research play? This volume demonstrates how collaboration between scholars, civil society and practitioners can help to answer these questions.

    « Ne t’appuie pas sur un mur, appuie-toi sur ton frère » (2022)
    Presses universitaires François-Rabelais

    Publication Date: 2022-09-06
    Description: Le Maroc n’a pas été épargné per les révoltes du « printemps arabe » de 2011. Comme en Tunisie et ailleurs. L’émancipation individuelle est au cœur des enjeux sociaux. Ce livre propose un regard ethnographique pour comprendre les réalités du Maroc contemporain. Il parte du mal-être de la jeunesse. Il plonge dans l’histoire d’une famille sur plusieurs générations. Il explore les représentations liées aux relations entre les sexes, mais aussi entre les générations. Il souligne l’ampleur des tensions qui travaillent les individus et les familles. Cet ouvrage revient sur les bouleversements de la société marocaine, soulignant à la fois combien les changements dus aux processus de modernisation sont rapides, profonds et irréversibles, et combien sont fortes les résistances. Les valeurs musulmanes apparaissent comme un rempart à ce qui est vécu comme une occidentalisation des mœurs, et la famille comme la garante de leur préservation. Il en résulte cette crispation autour du statut de la femme et des normes religieuses, du corps et de la sexualité, avec laquelle se débattent les jeunes. Comment être moderne sans se dissoudre dans le modèle occidental ?

    Les petits vignobles (2022)
    Presses universitaires François-Rabelais
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Small is beautiful ! Le petit est à la mode dans le monde vitivinicole : petites exploitations, petites appellations, cépages modestes, circuits courts. Le petit accompagne les préoccupations actuelles autour de la recherche du bien‑être et du respect de l'équilibre environnemental. Cette quête de l'authentique et du sain, que partagent de plus en plus consommateurs et producteurs, fait émerger des niches favorables aux « petits vins » et aux « petits vignobles ». Les critères traditionnels de hiérarchie des crus et des vignobles s'en trouvent reconsidérés, de même que la définition classique de la qualité des vins. Pourquoi les « grands » vins seraient-ils forcément bons quand des « petits » vins ne seraient au mieux que des curiosités intéressantes Par l'intermédiaire des sciences sociales, ce livre vise à réévaluer la perception, la place et les mutations des petits vignobles. Ainsi, il interroge en premier lieu le sens de « petit » dans le monde vitivinicole français, au travers de l'examen des vignobles de Madiran, de Buzet, de Bordeaux, du Rouergue, de Cahors, de Bourgogne et de Touraine. En analysant les spécificités de ces territoires de l'époque médiévale à nos jours, les auteurs mettent en lumière l'organisation du marché, les logiques spatiales et la diversité des pratiques viticoles en France. Dès lors, en décentrant le regard, les petits vignobles assurent une relecture de la viticulture nationale.

    The Global Smartphone (2021)
    UCL Press | UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: The smartphone is often literally right in front of our nose, so you would think we would know what it is. But do we? To find out, 11 anthropologists each spent 16 months living in communities in Africa, Asia, Europe and South America, focusing on the take up of smartphones by older people. Their research reveals that smartphones are technology for everyone, not just for the young. The Global Smartphone presents a series of original perspectives deriving from this global and comparative research project. Smartphones have become as much a place within which we live as a device we use to provide ‘perpetual opportunism’, as they are always with us. The authors show how the smartphone is more than an ‘app device’ and explore differences between what people say about smartphones and how they use them. The smartphone is unprecedented in the degree to which we can transform it. As a result, it quickly assimilates personal values. In order to comprehend it, we must take into consideration a range of national and cultural nuances, such as visual communication in China and Japan, mobile money in Cameroon and Uganda, and access to health information in Chile and Ireland – all alongside diverse trajectories of ageing in Al Quds, Brazil and Italy. Only then can we know what a smartphone is and understand its consequences for people’s lives around the world.

    Knowledge Sovereignty Among African Cattle Herders (2021)
    UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-08-27
    Description: Beni-Amer cattle owners in the western part of the Horn of Africa are not only masters in cattle breeding, they are also knowledge sovereign, in terms of owning productive genes of cattle and the cognitive knowledge base crucial to sustainable development. The strong bonds between the Beni-Amer, their animals, and their environment constitute the basis of their ways of knowing, and much of their knowledge system is built on experience and embedded in their cultural practices. In this book, the first to study Beni-Amer practices, Zeremariam Fre argues for the importance of their knowledge, challenging the preconceptions that regard it as untrustworthy when compared to scientific knowledge from more developed regions. Empirical evidence suggests that there is much one could learn from the other, since elements of pastoralist technology, such as those related to animal production and husbandry, make a direct contribution to our knowledge of livestock production. It is this potential for hybridisation, as well as the resilience of the herders, at the core of the indigenous knowledge system.

    De chair et de sang (2022)
    Presses universitaires François-Rabelais
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Lorsqu'au xvie siècle les mangeurs d'hommes - les anthropophages - reçoivent le nom de cannibales, c'est aussi une tradition millénaire qui adopte des formes nouvelles. Avant Colomb, il y a en effet une histoire occidentale de l'homme comme nourriture, mais celle-ci reste en grande partie à écrire. Le présent ouvrage contribue à combler cette lacune. Dans les récits et les images de l'ethnographie ancienne, l'anthropophage, qu'il mange ses ennemis ou ses défunts bien-aimés, est un être lointain, dont les coutumes bousculent les normes culturelles occidentales. Menace distante, alors, le cannibale ? Bien au contraire : on dit de groupes et d'individus marginaux qu'ils convoitent la chair d'enfants innocents pour leurs mystérieux rituels. On parle aussi d'affamés qui n'hésitent pas à dévorer leurs proches, de femmes désespérées qui mangent leurs enfants. Pendant ce temps, pourtant, du sang humain soigne, stimule, rassasie ou sanctifie, tandis que de pieux chrétiens consomment la chair du Christ sous les apparences de l'hostie. À l'aide des méthodes de l'histoire et des disciplines sœurs, l'auteur reconstitue un portrait tout en contrastes du tabou alimentaire par excellence. Entre imaginaires plus ou moins informés et réalités plus ou moins déformées, un parcours varié et étonnant se dessine.

    Le mezcal (2022)
    Presses universitaires François-Rabelais
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-09-06
    Description: Le mezcal est la boisson identitaire des Mexicains. Issu de la distillation de l’agave, ce spiritueux est encore très mal connu en dehors de son pays d’origine. Ignoré du grand public, le véritable mezcal exerce une fascination transculturelle auprès des connaisseurs du monde entier. Cette eau-de-vie est aujourd’hui l’un des spiritueux les plus en vogue. L’histoire du mezcal c’est aussi celle du Mexique. Cette boisson symbolise la quintessence de la culture mexicaine. La fabrication artisanale, la large palette aromatique et la production biologique font la spécificité de cet « enfant terrible du Mexique ». Le renouveau du mezcal prend sa source au Mexique et aux États-Unis. Son passage par les circuits culturels internationaux participe à sa découverte et sa légitimation. Distillé et consommé principalement par les populations indigènes d’origine rurale, il a longtemps été ignoré, voire méprisé par les élites qui aujourd’hui en sont particulièrement friandes. Ce livre analyse le processus de réhabilitation du mezcal. Il donne à voir la manière dont se construit son nouveau statut symbolique, révèle les contradictions liées au développement économique du Mexique. Par là même, il mesure l’évolution des rapports économiques et sociaux qui sous-tendent ce processus. Combinant une analyse sociologique et historique, cet ouvrage propose au lecteur un véritable voyage au « pays du mezcal »

    Ageing with Smartphones in Urban Italy (2021)
    UCL Press | UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: ‘Who am I at this (st)age? Where am I and where should I be, and how and where should I live?’ These questions, which individuals ask themselves throughout their lives, are among the central themes of this book, which presents an anthropological account of the everyday experiences of age and ageing in an inner-city neighbourhood in Milan, and in places and spaces beyond.Ageing with Smartphones in Urban Italy explores ageing and digital technologies amidst a backdrop of rapid global technological innovation, including mHealth (mobile health) and smart cities, and a number of wider socio-economic and technological transformations that have brought about significant changes in how people live, work and retire, and how they communicate and care for each other. Based on 16 months of urban digital ethnographic research in Milan, the smartphone is shown to be a ‘constant companion’ in, of and for contemporary life. It accompanies people throughout the day and night, and through individual and collective experiences of movement, change and rupture. Smartphone practices tap into and reflect the moral anxieties of the present moment, while posing questions related to life values and purpose, identities and belonging, privacy and sociability. Through her extensive investigation, Shireen Walton argues that ageing with smartphones in this contemporary urban Italian context is about living with ambiguity, change and contradiction, as well as developing curiosities about a changing world, our changing selves, and changing relationships with and to others. Ageing with smartphones is about figuring out how best to live together, differently.

    Social Media in South India (2021)
    UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-28
    Description: One of the first ethnographic studies to explore use of social media in the everyday lives of people in Tamil Nadu, Social Media in South India provides an understanding of this subject in a region experiencing rapid transformation. The influx of IT companies over the past decade into what was once a space dominated by agriculture has resulted in a complex juxtaposition between an evolving knowledge economy and the traditions of rural life. While certain class tensions have emerged in response to this juxtaposition, a study of social media in the region suggests that similarities have also transpired, observed most clearly in the blurring of boundaries between work and life for both the old residents and the new.

    El Smartphone Global: Más allá de una tecnología para jóvenes (2021)
    UCL Press | UCL Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: El smartphone suele estar literalmente frente a nuestras narices, por eso creemos saber lo que es. ¿Pero lo sabemos? Para responder a esta pregunta, once antropólogos vivieron durante 16 meses en comunidades de África, Asia, Europa y Sudamérica, enfocándose en el uso de smartphones por gente mayor. Sus investigaciones revelan que son una tecnología para todos, no solo para los jóvenes. El Smartphone Global presenta una serie de nuevas perspectivas que emergen de este proyecto de investigación global y comparativo. El smartphone se ha convertido tanto en un lugar dentro del cual vivimos como en un aparato que usamos para tener “oportunismo perpetuo”, pues siempre está con nosotros. Los autores muestran cómo el smartphone es más que un “aparato con aplicaciones” y exploran las diferencias entre lo que las personas dicen de él y la forma en cómo lo usan. El smartphone no tiene precedentes por el grado en el cual podemos transformarlo. Como resultado, rápidamente asimila nuestros valores personales. Para comprenderlo debemos considerar una serie de matices nacionales y culturales, tales como la comunicación visual en China y Japón, el dinero móvil en Camerún y Uganda, y el acceso a la información de salud en Chile e Irlanda, junto a las diversas trayectorias del envejecimiento en Al-Quds, Brasil e Italia. Solo entonces sabremos qué es el smartphone y podremos comprender sus consecuencias en las vidas de las personas alrededor del mundo.
