Fenomena Bahasa dan Sastra di Masa Instabilitas Global
Sejak bulan Agustus 2021 setiap pukul 10.00 WIB, di rumah sakit, di bank, di swalayan, berkumandanglah Lagu Indonesia Raya dan hadirin yang ada berdiri tegap mendengarkan dan bahkan ikut menyanyikannya. Suasana nasionalisme sangat terasa dan semakin mendekatkan memori kita dengan jasa para pahlawan kemerdekaan. Di beberapa kampus secara virtual, apel pagi diselang selingi antara menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Raya dengan membaca teks Pancasila. Sebelum tradisi baru tersebut dilakukan, ada pertanyaan yang selalu melintas di benak kita setiap kali menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Raya, apalagi ketika seminar di Balai Bahasa DIY beberapa waktu yang lalu, Indonesia Raya yang dinyanyikan lengkap 3 stanza. Kemunculan bait yang mengandung Di sanalah aku berdiri berulang sesuai dengan jumlah stanza. Pertanyaan yang selalu muncul adalah mengapa di sana? Mengapa bukan di sini? Sedang berada di mana penulis/pengarang ketika menulis lagu Indonesia Raya (apakah di luar negeri?)
رحلة مع القصيد البدوي..
The desert-dwelling Bedouin have always been a subject of intense fascination. Their culture and ethics are still largely a mystery, both for the peoples with whom they share the Middle-Eastern and African lands, and for those living in the West. Like other non-literate peoples, the Bedouinhave a strong oral tradition and use poetry for many forms of communication and entertainment. Clinton Bailey has spent the last twenty years among the Bedouin of Sinai and the Negev studying their culture and recording their poems as recited around campfires. This book presents the fruit of hiswork: 113 poems reflecting Bedouin attitudes to a variety of personal, social, and political experiences. Each po...

Happiness; Selected Short Stories
These stories are about Aborigines in the far north-west, prospectors on the opal-fields and the goldfields, women and wanderers of the station properties and the country towns. They are all archetypal characters of the Australian legend, and all are portrayed with warm human sympathy.
Urban Pollution
Re-examining Mary Douglas’ work on pollution and concepts of purity, this volume explores modern expressions of these themes in urban areas, examining the intersections of material and cultural pollution. It presents ethnographic case studies from a range of cities affected by globalization processes such as neoliberal urban policies, privatization of urban space, continued migration and spatialized ethnic tension. What has changed since the appearance of Purity and Danger? How have anthropological views on pollution changed accordingly? This volume focuses on cultural meanings and values that are attached to conceptions of ‘clean’ and ‘dirty’, purity and impurity, healthy and unhealthy environments, and addresses the implications of pollution with regard to discrimination, class, urban poverty, social hierarchies and ethnic segregation in cities.
Controversies in Voting Behavior
Sixteen newly selected readings from 1992-2001 examine US debates and data on six key issues: why voter turnout continues to be low, the impact of public lack of political information, what determines the vote, voters seeming preference for divided government, how politics affects party identification, and the party system in transition. Political scientists Niemi (U. of Rochester) and Weisberg (Ohio State U.) provide section introductions. c. Book News Inc.

Animism in Southeast Asia
Animism refers to ontologies or worldviews which assign agency and personhood to human and non-human beings alike. Recent years have seen a revival of this concept in anthropology, where it is now discussed as an alternative to modern-Western naturalistic notions of human-environment relations. Based on original fieldwork, this book presents a number of case studies of animism from insular and peninsular Southeast Asia and offers a comprehensive overview of the phenomenon – its diversity and underlying commonalities and its resilience in the face of powerful forces of change. Critically engaging with the current standard notion of animism, based on hunter-gatherer and horticulturalist soci...

Archaeologies of waste
Waste represents a category of ‘things’, which is familiar and ubiquitous but rarely reflected in archaeological and cultural studies. Perception of waste changes over time and practices associated with waste vary. The ambiguity of waste challenges traditional archaeological approaches that take advantage of refuse to infer past behaviour. Recent developments in research in the social sciences and humanities indicate that waste offers many more dimensions for exploration. This interdisciplinary book brings together scholars who demonstrate the potential of research into waste for understanding humans, non-humans and their inter-relations. In 12 chapters the authors cover topics ranging f...
