Cultures of Solidarity: Consciousness, Action, and Contemporary American Workers

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: A commonplace assumption about American workers is that they lack class consciousness. This perception has baffled social scientists, demoralized activists, and generated a significant literature on American exceptionalism. In this provocative book, a young sociologist takes the prevailing assumptions to task and sheds new light upon this very important issue. In three vivid case studies Fantasia explores the complicated, multi-faceted dynamics of American working-class consciousness and collective action. [detailed...]

Cultures of the Abdomen : Diet, Digestion, and Fat in the Modern World

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description We live in a world obsessed with abdomens. Whether we call it the belly, tummy, or stomach, we take this area of the body for granted as an object of our gaze, the subject of our obsessions, and the location of deeply felt desires. Diet, nutrition, and exercise all play critical roles in the development of our body images and thus our sense of self, not least because how we are made to feel about bodies (both our own and those of others) is often grounded in dietary and lifestyle choices. Cultures of the Abdomen traces the history of social, cultural, and medical ideas about the stomach and related organs since the seventeenth century, and demonstrates that a focused study of the abdomen is necessary for understanding the deephistorical meanings that underscore our contemporary obsessions with hunger, diet, fat, indigestion, and excretion. It locates that history from dietary ideals in early modern Europe to the vexing issue of American fat in the… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: After Santa Clara county in California was labeled ?Silicon Valley? in the 1970s, it attained a mythical quality in the public imagination.

The paramount producer of the information revolution, Silicon Valley has become the icon for a lifestyle saturated with digital devices. Whereas most books on the region focus on its entrepreneurial reputation, this book is an anthropological expedition into the everyday lives of people living in and connected to Silicon Valley?software engineers around the water cooler, a mothers? group at lunch, nannies in the park, rush-hour commuters?to get at the emerging texture of life. A specialized high-tech economy has drawn people from many countries, and the things that make Silicon Valley culture distinctive?technological… [detailed...]

Cultvision: Idn Special 02

2003 y.

Description: What makes a `cult` film? A film that one group of dedicated fans regards highly enough to elevate to cult status may leave others wondering what all the fuss was about. This book seeks to understand how the creators of films like `Adaptation`, `Being John Malkovich`, `Blue Velvet`, `Mulholland Drive`, `Battle Royale`, `Amelie` and `Tetsuo the Iron Man` have translated their fantasies into films so impressive that they have become part of the collective consciousness.

Cuneiform

1987 y.
Publisher: University of California Press
Description: The cuneiform writing system flourished in the Near East from before 3000 BC to AD 75. This book surveys the development of the script from the earliest pictographic signs to the latest astronomical tablets and the process by which it came to be used for writing many different Near Eastern languages. Sample texts show how the script is analysed into words and syllables and how to read the names of the most famous kings as they appear on monuments. In addition, extracts from contemporary Sumerian literature and school texts give an account of the training of the scribes, and the various types of inscription they wrote are illustrated. The decipherment of cuneiform is explained and--for the collector--some guidelines for the identification of fake inscriptions are given. [detailed...]
