Egalitarianism

Set in Tel Aviv's Bitcoin Embassy between 2017 and 2019, Community in a Crowd explores the everyday activities and social dynamics of Israeli Bitcoin enthusiasts. It examines how participants promoted Libertarian narratives and ritualized practices to challenge the moral authority of the 'centralized' political-economic order. Revisiting Bitcoin's popular association with radical individualism, the book contrasts the sprawling, impersonal crowds of online trading with the formation of an intimate, egalitarian community through in-person encounters. Advancing a new theoretical framework, it offers insights into contemporary mass movements grounded in techno-utopian visions of society and reconsiders how decentralized technologies foster both anonymity and solidarity.

New Directions in Anthropology

In the wake of Greece's 2008 economic collapse, African women in Athens navigated intensified discrimination shaped by the intersecting forces of gender, race and migration status. This feminist ethnography investigates how processes of racialization intersect with gender and migration status to produce complex forms of disadvantage. This book argues that gendered racialization renders these women not only invisible but also hyper-visible in stereotypical ways that heighten their exposure to discrimination and precarity. Through everyday survival tactics, home-making practices and collective mobilization, these women resist exclusion and marginalization. Acting individually and collectively, they work to improve material conditions and gain social intelligibility, ultimately challenging normative boundaries of belonging in contemporary Greece.

Transparency has become a ubiquitous presence in seemingly every sphere of social, economic, and political life. Yet, for all the claims that transparency works, little attention has been paid to how it works - even when it fails to achieve its goals. Instead of assuming that transparency is itself transparent, this book questions the technological practices, material qualities, and institutional standards producing transparency in extractive, commodity trading, and agricultural sites. Furthermore, it asks: how is transparency certified and standardized? How is it regimented by 'ethical' and 'responsible' businesses, or valued by traders and investors, from auction rooms to sustainability reports? The contributions bring nuanced answers to these questions, approaching transparency through four key organizing concepts, namely disclosure, immediacy, trust, and truth. These are concepts that anchor the making of transparency across the lifespan of global commodities. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Interdisciplinary and provocative study between an archaeologist and an artist discussing the disciplines' principles, while providing ways to rethink archaeology, the visual arts and the two subjects' shared themes.

Disrupting Archaeology and Art

For decades, gentrification research has predominantly focused on large cities. Arguing that gentrification has occurred throughout the urban hierarchy, Ravuri fills this gap in the literature by analyzing gentrification and displacement patterns in twelve medium-sized cities, spread across the four census regions of the US.

World Scientific Series On The Built Environment

Urban Management is about managing cities in uncertain times. The book covers the urbanization process, the urban challenges, the benefits of cities, and the scope of urban management. The latter includes urban planning, capital investment programs, local economic development, housing, urban service delivery, public utilities, social services, general urban services, transport, and asset management. This book focuses on the general principles of urban management, particularly in developing countries. It uses the CSGG framework -- institutional capacity, scope of urban management, goals of urban management, and governance -- for urban management.In this second edition, the chapters have been reorganized, revised, and expanded to include many case studies. There are new chapters on capital investment programs and asset management. The latter contains many topics on asset management, including strategic asset management, asset-light business models, maintenance principles and technologies, and the use of more recent technologies such as drones, Lidar, and satellite radar systems to monitor asset conditions and respond to emergencies.The book will be of interest to practitioners and students in the built environment, including mayors, urban managers, urban planners, developers, lenders, insurers, architects, engineers, project managers, and other consultants, contractors, and suppliers.
