Cultural Dynamics of Women's Lives
This book explores the diverse landscapes wherein women struggle for their personal and social identities and lives, between biology and culture, destiny and choice, shared and individual worlds, tradition and modernity. Their “peripheral lives” have “central meaning” (Chaudhary, this volume) in any society – and as such are approached as a primary subject in this book, as the chapters traverse ten different countries on three continents: North America (United States); Latin America (Brazil, Chile, Colombia); Asia (India); and Europe (United Kingdom, Ireland, Portugal, Finland, Estonia). Throughout these different places, women's lives are an interesting stage for observing the int...
Caminhos da Educação
Sem ignorar suas efervescentes historicidades ou transformações, a obra que aqui se apresenta convida o leitor para explorar, percorrer trajetos ou roteiros, desenvolver novas percepções e problematizações sobre a educação de jovens e adultos, as tensões e invisibilidades a serem superadas pela educação patrimonial contemporânea, o novo ensino médio, o fracasso escolar e a evasão na educação básica, o mito da neutralidade docente, a docência em uma perspectiva sociológica com vistas a se obter uma educação transformadora, a educação especial e o tão necessário combate à pedofilia. A diversidade e a própria intensidade dos temas abordados demonstram que o sentimento de alegria pela continuidade de um projeto extremamente potente e promissor não deixa de dialogar com a reflexão de que muito ainda se encontra por fazer. Logo, esperamos que tais estudos possam também servir de inspiração, estímulo e vitalidade ao longo de tamanha jornada... Por fim, somos extremamente gratos tanto aos pesquisadores e colaboradores que integram a presente edição quanto ao público leitor, motivação maior do nosso trabalho.
Birth in Eight Cultures
This stunning sequel to Brigitte Jordan’s landmark Birth in Four Cultures brings together the work of fifteen reproductive anthropologists to address core cultural values and knowledge systems as revealed in contemporary birth practices in Brazil, Greece, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Tanzania, and the United States. Six ethnographic chapters form the heart of the book, three of which are set up as dyads that compare two countries; each demonstrates the power of anthropology’s cross-cultural comparative method. An additional chapter with ethnographic vignettes gives readers a feel for what fieldwork is really like on the ground. The eminently readable, theoretically rich chapters are enhanced by absorbing stories, photos, quotes, thought questions, and film suggestions that nudge the reader toward eureka flashes of understanding and render the book suitable for undergraduate and graduate audiences alike.

Educational Contexts and Borders through a Cultural Lens
This book provides a “context” of discussion for researchers and educational experts in order to rethink the relationship between actors, practices and borders within the educational contexts. The research in educational psychology has often challenged the concept of “educational context”. According to the different theoretical frameworks, the construct of contexts, their borders and the dimensions to be taken into account have all been defined in different ways. The book offers a reflection that goes from theory to practice and backward from practice to theory. The main research questions the book addresses are how actors, i.e. teachers, parents and students, educators and professio...
State of Health
State of Health takes readers inside one of the most controversial regimes of the twenty-first century—Venezuela under Hugo Chávez—for a revealing description of how people’s lives changed for the better as the state began reorganizing society. With lively and accessible storytelling, Amy Cooper chronicles the pleasure people experienced accessing government health care and improving their quality of life. From personalized doctor’s visits to therapeutic dance classes, new health care programs provided more than medical services. State of Health offers a unique perspective on the significance of the Bolivarian Revolution for ordinary people, demonstrating how the transformed health system succeeded in exciting people and recognizing historically marginalized Venezuelans as bodies who mattered.
