PDF-(BOOS)-A Place in History: Social and Monumental Time in a Cretan Town (Princeton Studies

Michael Herzfeld describes what happens when a bureaucracy charged with historic conservation clashes with a local populace hostile to the state and suspicious of tourism Focusing on the Cretan town of Rethemnos once a center of learning under Venetian rule and later inhabited by the Turks he examines major questions confronting conservators and citizens as they negotiate the ownership of history Who defines the past To whom does the past belong What is traditional and how is this determined Exploring the meanings of the built environment for Rethemnoss inhabitants Herzfeld finds that their interest in it has more to do with personal histories and the immediate social context than with the formal history that attracts the conservators He also investigates the inhabitants social practices from the standpoints of household and kin group political association neighborhood gender ideology and the effects of these on attitudes toward home ownership In the face of modernity where tradition is an object of both reverence and commercialism Rethemnos emerges as an important ethnographic window onto the ambiguous cultural fortunes of Greece.

About 705 a monastery was founded by the stream. In 721 John of Beverley, the Bishop of York died and was buried at the monastery. He was canonised (declared a saint) in 1037. It was said that miracles occurred around his tomb e.g. people were healed from illnesses. Soon pilgrims came to his burial place, some of them hoping for cures, some merely to worship. Soon a little trading settlement grew up around the monastery at Beverley. . Head: Department of Development Studies &. Director: Unit for Economic Development & Tourism. The Poverty of Progress?

Most social studies students do not intend to be professional historians, but rather to gain employment in the teaching profession and various other related fields. .  . Students use their knowledge, skills, and communication abilities as a stepping-stone to a variety of careers. This is especially true in business, government, journalism, law, and public education. Others range from research positions in business and public agencies, to archival, curatorial, and social work. Thus there are very few careers for which social studies does not provide essential preparation. . ‟one of the two or three most complicated words in the English language” (Raymond Williams, .

How did the industrialized nations of North America and Europe come to be seen as the appropriate models for post-World War II societies in Asia, Africa, and Latin America? How did the postwar discourse on development actually create the so-called Third World? And what will happen when development ideology collapses? To answer these questions, Arturo Escobar shows how development policies became mechanisms of control that were just as pervasive and effective as their colonial counterparts. The development apparatus generated categories powerful enough to shape the thinking even of its occasional critics while poverty and hunger became widespread. “Development” was not even partially “deconstructed” until the 1980s, when new tools for analyzing the representation of social reality were applied to specific “Third World” cases. Here Escobar deploys these new techniques in a provocative analysis of development discourse and practice in general, concluding with a discussion of alternative visions for a postdevelopment era.Escobar emphasizes the role of economists in development discourse?—?his case study of Colombia demonstrates that the economization of food resulted in ambitious plans, and more hunger. To depict the production of knowledge and power in other development fields, the author shows how peasants, women, and nature became objects of knowledge and targets of power under the “gaze of experts.”In a substantial new introduction, Escobar reviews debates on globalization and postdevelopment since the book’s original publication in 1995 and argues that the concept of postdevelopment needs to be redefined to meet today’s significantly new conditions. He then calls for the development of a field of “pluriversal studies,” which he illustrates with examples from recent Latin American movements. In this book, the prominent theorist Partha Chatterjee looks at the creative and powerful results of the nationalist imagination in Asia and Africa that are posited not on identity but on difference with the nationalism propagated by the West. Arguing that scholars have been mistaken in equating political nationalism with nationalism as such, he shows how anticolonialist nationalists produced their own domain of sovereignty within colonial society well before beginning their political battle with the imperial power. These nationalists divided their culture into material and spiritual domains, and staked an early claim to the spiritual sphere, represented by religion, caste, women and the family, and peasants. Chatterjee shows how middle-class elites first imagined the nation into being in this spiritual dimension and then readied it for political contest, all the while normalizing the aspirations of the various marginal groups that typify the spiritual sphere.While Chatterjee\'s specific examples are drawn from Indian sources, with a copious use of Bengali language materials, the book is a contribution to the general theoretical discussion on nationalism and the modern state. Examining the paradoxes involved with creating first a uniquely non-Western nation in the spiritual sphere and then a universalist nation-state in the material sphere, the author finds that the search for a postcolonial modernity is necessarily linked with past struggles against modernity.
