Atelier: Ethnographic Inquiry in the Twenty-First Century

Shearer S: Kigali

A New City for the End of the World

"Both scholarly and intimate, Tracie Canada deftly takes us into the world of college football through the lived experiences of its players. Canada also homes in on how those experiences are affected by an often-cruel world. Tackling the Everyday is like no college football book I have read, precisely because it is about so much more than the game itself. Destined to be a classic."--Dave Zirin, sports editor at The Nation and author of The Kaepernick Effect "Much has been written about college football, describing both its ongoing appeal to fans and its exploitation of players. Canada's book offers a brilliant Black feminist contribution to the literature on sports, race, and gender. She centers the everyday experiences of Black college football players, focusing on how they navigate the institutions and structures that organize their lives, from the football field to their classes. Canada uniquely focuses on the networks of care, friendship, love, and intimacy that they forge and rely on for support and sustenance. Tackling the Everyday is essential reading for any scholar--or fan--interested in race and sports."--Jennifer C. Nash, author of How We Write Now: Living with Black Feminist Theory "This brilliant ethnography captures the lives of young men as they unfold on and off the gridiron, bringing valuable Black feminist theorization of Black masculinities to how players navigate everyday systems predicated on anti-Blackness. Powerful."--Lisa Uperesa, author of Gridiron Capital: How American Football Became a Samoan Game "Canada's insightful and deeply researched book, Tackling the Everyday, is a reminder not just that players' experiences matter but that they are, in fact, central to understanding the entire system. This book will challenge you in the best way. A must-read if you care at all about college football and those whose bodies and labor make it possible."--Jessica Luther, author of Unsportsmanlike Conduct: College Football and the Politics of Rape

"We are inundated with books extolling the virtues of charter schools or excoriating the neoliberal turn in public education without ever telling us what happens in these schools. A Burdensome Experiment is a rare and brilliant exception. Drawing on rich ethnographic research, Christien Philmarc Tompkins interrogates how charter schools in post-Katrina New Orleans have reshaped educational labor in the context of neoliberalism, systemic racism shrouded by post-racial conceits, new pedagogical strategies, and the struggles of students, teachers, and parents over the purpose of schooling. Anyone committed to creating liberatory models of education must read this book, not because it has all the answers but because it asks the right questions, with care and humility. And isn't that what great teachers do?"—Robin D.&nbsp;G. Kelley, Distinguished Professor and Gary B. Nash Endowed Chair in US History, University of California, Los Angeles &nbsp; "From the heartbreak of veteran Black teachers made strangers in their own city to the hubris of transplanted educators who see New Orleans as grist for their own good works, Tompkins's trenchant labor ethnography goes beyond 'what works' in urban schools to attend to a city still reeling from the institutional violence of post-Katrina school reform."—Savannah Shange, author of Progressive Dystopia: Abolition, Antiblackness, and Schooling in San Francisco &nbsp; "Theoretically precise and powerfully personal, this ethnographic analysis of the top-to-bottom transformation of the New Orleans school system post-Katrina tracks the dismantling of neighborhood schools as the outcome of neoliberal capitalism, design thinking, and the always-present workings of racial inequality. Tompkins's takedown of design thinking is spot-on and a uniquely important contribution to real-world understandings of the ways that the universalized, normative whiteness so prominent in design worlds continues to damage and destroy while claiming to solve problems."—Elizabeth Chin, Editor in Chief, American Anthropologist

"This inventive and beautiful ethnography offers powerful insights into the multispecies worlds created by warfare. Darcie DeAngelo's moving exploration of the everyday contours of postwar ecology in Cambodia illuminates how trust and love between species take root in a social world riven by mistrust and complicity."—Radhika Govindrajan, author of Animal Intimacies: Interspecies Relatedness in India's Central Himalayas "DeAngelo's How to Love a Rat is a richly textured study that brings to light a complex and multifaceted world in which Cambodian deminers and Tanzanian rats enact a common future in the midst of ongoing violence, unappeased spirits, and unresolved enmities. This surprising and nuanced ethnography brings together studies of militarized ecologies and the multispecies turn. A must-read for scholars of postwar environments."—Eleana J. Kim, author of&nbsp;Making Peace with Nature: Ecological Encounters along the Korean DMZ "How to Love a Rat&nbsp;is essential reading about the making of habitable futures in former killing fields. Animal companions, former combatants, and ghosts come together in an uneasy choreography of landmine detection, and in efforts to undo violence long past its end date. This is a&nbsp;brilliantly crafted book and a vital story for our times."—Adriana Petryna, author of&nbsp;Horizon Work: At the Edges of Knowledge in an Age of Runaway Climate Change

"One could read&nbsp;Life at the Center&nbsp;multiple times and, with each reading, encounter new dimensions. Erica Caple James's work is exceptional."—Linda Barnes, Professor of Family Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine "James has written an important book that deftly disentangles the complex relationships between a Catholic institution, Haitian immigrants, and the work of charity in Boston. The compelling ethnography of local worlds is matched by more general explications for understanding religion, immigrants and refugees, and their transformation into Americans."—Arthur Kleinman, author of&nbsp;The Soul of Care

"Zainab's Traffic is an exceptionally creative and multifaceted ethnography of a critical Muslim pilgrimage route across multiple nations and territories in southwest Asia. Emrah Yıldız brilliantly shows how people navigate movement and trade in this unusually complicated context while simultaneously teaching readers about Shi'ism, the region, political economy, trafficking, ritual, and a variety of commodities."—Lara Deeb, Professor and Chair, Department of Anthropology and Program in Middle East and North African Studies, Scripps College "Carefully researched and elegantly written,&nbsp;this work&nbsp;is the first and only book in English on the significance of the current Iranian Shi'i pilgrimage across Iran, Turkey, and Syria. The ethnographic account is written in such a way that you not only&nbsp;read about the pilgrimage but also travel with the pilgrims.&nbsp;Zainab's Traffic&nbsp;is a pleasure to read."—Minoo&nbsp;Moallem,&nbsp;author of&nbsp;Between Warrior Brother and Veiled Sister "A remarkably innovative and fascinating ethnographic account of a modern pilgrimage that is filled with memorable individuals, important theoretical insights, and more than a few surprises along the way. Highly recommended!"—Dwight F. Reynolds, Distinguished&nbsp;Professor of Arabic Languages and Literature, University of California, Santa Barbara, and editor of&nbsp;The Cambridge Companion to Modern Arab Culture

"Tabula Raza is an engaging and evocative ethnographic narrative interlacing genomics research, racism and race, peoples and practitioners, ideas and ideologies about ancestry, and a range of actual and assumed health-genome relations. Duana Fullwiley deftly immerses the reader in the experiential details of genetic analyses, develops substantive scholarly arguments about the topic, and connects the reader—personally and viscerally—to the cast of collaborators who populate the text."—Agustín Fuentes, author of&nbsp;The Creative Spark &nbsp; "Set in the shadow of what Hortense Spillers called an 'American grammar' of race, Fullwiley brilliantly and bravely probes the racial paradoxes that scientists of diverse backgrounds find themselves trapped within as they claim to be able to genetically trace African, Indigenous, and other lineaments of American ancestry in order to undo the structures of American racism. This is a must-read not only for those interested in the new genetic sciences but for all who are trying to understand the eternal return of the tabula raza that drives differential racial outcomes in medicine and racial bias in policing."—Elizabeth A.&nbsp;Povinelli, author of Geontologies "In the beginning there was delight at the universally shared potential of the human genome. Then came the human beings who applied meaning and money to the landscape of our common inheritance. Tabula Raza&nbsp;offers a brilliant history of how lab leaders spoke a haze of nearly indelible social expectations into being. In translating the chemistry of wordless polynucleotide chains, these mortal architects of the genomic landscape used habits of raced language and gendered hierarchy to rationalize familiar but insidious processes of knowledge production."—Patricia J. Williams, author of&nbsp;The Alchemy of Race and Rights

"At once illuminating and disconcerting, Kretek Capitalism&nbsp;offers an&nbsp;important critique of how governments and corporations still collude with one another to profit from the recognizable harm of cigarette smoking. Thoughtful and provocative, this is a superb book that will be widely read, especially by those who are looking for an antidote to current popular support of kretek."—Abidin Kusno, author of Jakarta: The City of a Thousand Dimensions "A magnificent book! Too often we forget that cigarettes remain the world's leading preventable cause of death, and in Indonesia that takes the form of clove cigarettes. Marina Welker has given us a brilliant account of this deadly artifact and the people who make it.&nbsp;Kretek Capitalism&nbsp;is destined to become a classic of both medical anthropology and public health scholarship."—Robert Proctor, author of&nbsp;Golden Holocaust​: Origins of the Cigarette Catastrophe and the Case for Abolition "Tacking elegantly across complex economic, semiotic, and social spaces, Welker argues that ubiquitous Indonesian representations of kretek as an authentic, small-scale industry in fact rest on a toxic addiction that is as cultural as it is chemical and as global as it is patriotic. A brilliant, beautiful, and disturbing book."—Carla Jones, Professor of Anthropology, University of Colorado Boulder "Detailed, attentive, and careful,&nbsp;Kretek Capitalism&nbsp;is easily the most granular, informative, and textured ethnography of labor in the tobacco industry."—Peter Benson, author of&nbsp;Tobacco Capitalism and&nbsp;Stuck Moving

Often forgotten as an important political site for social contacts, public opinion, democracy, freedom and openness - characteristics which are frequently ascribed to streets and squares - this accessible and novel open access study puts public transport at the heart of political debates about public space. 
 
Public transport can be an intensely sensory experience, leaving impressions both favourable and unfavourable on its users, and gathering around itself an extensive archive of representations since the early 19th-century. Bringing together contributions from a range of key scholars and public intellectuals, as well as literary texts, this volume offers a richly illustrated commentary on public transport as public space which combines theoretical analysis and practical case studies.

The eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Public Transport as Contested Space

America today is being torn apart by the struggle over a single concept, deeply rooted in the country's sense of self: freedom. Battered by wave after wave of crises, ordinary people of all political persuasions have come to feel that their freedom is under threat - and with it, nothing less than the soul of the nation. In The trouble with freedom, journalist and researcher Melissa Butcher takes a trip into the ferociously polarised world of American politics, hoping to find out what's going on beneath the surface. Criss-crossing the country, she talks to a wide range of people: Democrat and Republican, gay and straight, urban and rural, immigrants, First Nations, Black, white, the incarcerated. What she discovers is that political conflict is often the outcome of very personal experiences of managing cultural change. Exploring the different ways freedom has been used to define what it means to be American, Butcher encounters anger and distrust, but also untapped possibilities for empathy and care.

Tribal Community Planning uses a community-planning lens to bring attention to policies that decision makers, governmental agencies, and tribal leadership need to address regarding American Indian tribes and their resiliency, self-reliance and independence. It adds to the literature on resiliency from the perspective of the cultural and community well-being dimensions of sustainability and quality of life studies. The book begins by addressing the historical Indian and federal Government relationships over time and argues how land use and community planning has significant meaning and impacts for Indian reservations. It then explores the history of federal Indian law and its import to current issues in planning including the role of culture in planning. With a focus on southwestern tribes, the book also provides insight into the general status of planning efforts on Indian reservations and the issues encountered, asking questions such as what role does gaming play in economic development versus development of community and sustainable livability? It addresses the issues inherent in economic development in the absence of accountability. The authors provide an interdisciplinary context that integrates community planning, public policy, law and economic development in the context of sustainability.

In Olympic Urbanism: Rome to Rio, Judith Grant Long asks whether the requirements of building for the Olympic Games are compatible with the long-term interests of host cities. Drawing on extensive research in former host cities from Rome 1960 to Rio de Janeiro 2016, Long assesses claims that the Olympic Games serve as a catalyst for urban development by comparing the aspirations revealed in host city bid packages with the actual outcomes evident in post-game use of sports venues, athletes' and media villages, ceremonial parks, and the transportation and other infrastructure built to accommodate the games. The analysis reveals that urban outcomes have been both better and worse than commonly understood, and points to the changing fortunes of global cities and the evolving business model of the Modern Olympic Movement as key factors in a story that challenges the concept of "Olympic legacy" and recent efforts to "right-size" the games. Calling for more responsible leadership on urban issues from both host cities and the International Olympic Committee, Olympic Urbanism provides guidelines to recalibrate the scale of Olympic infrastructure, to reduce the financial burdens placed upon host cities, and to guide better planning for the Olympic Games as well as other sports mega-events.
