The social life of materials: studies in materials and society. SOME MARKINGS
Language: English
Published by Bloomsbury Academic, London ;, 2015
paperback. Condition: Acceptable. DETAILS: sewn PAPERBACK, messy blue ink underlining on about 5 pages in first chapter, reader gave up, 290 pages look untouched. DRAZIN, ADAM / KÜCHLER, SUSANNE, ed. . The social life of materials: studies in materials and society. London ;: Bloomsbury Academic, 2015, xxviii, 301pp., . SOME MARKINGS - Materials play a central role in society. Beyond the physical and chemical properties of materials, their cultural properties have often been overlooked in anthropological studies: finished products have been perceived as 'social' yet the materials which comprise them are considered 'raw' or natural'. The Social Life of Materials proposes a new perspective in this interdisciplinary field. Diverting attention from the consumption of objects, the book looks towards the properties of materials and how these exist through many transformations in a variety of cultural contexts. Bringing together ethnographic studies of cultures from around the world, this collection explores the significance of materials by moving beyond questions of what may be created from them. Instead, the text argues that the materials themselves represent a shifting ground around which relationships, identities and powers are constantly formed and dissolved in the act of making and remaking. - CONTENTS: Part 1.
