Sommario/riassunto

Asia’s New Mothers , through a focus on childcare, offers a comparative regional analysis unique in English-language sources of changing gender roles in East and Southeast Asia. Taking into consideration the historical and cultural differences and similarities among the societies in the region, the authors employ indepth researches of people’s everyday experiences. The research was conducted between 2001 and 2003 in six societies in East and Southeast Asia – Japan, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore. While each makes its own unique contributions, most of the essays are informed by two theoretical focal points: modernization and gender and globalization and gender.

Sommario/riassunto

L'exaltation des richesses gastronomiques des terroirs précède la venue des touristes. C'est un fait acquis et connu. Mais, la solution de continuité entre alimentation quotidienne (ou populaire) des espaces investis et gastronomies touristiques n'est pas linéaire, pas plus qu'elle n'est figée dans le temps. Les goûts changent autant que les lieux gourmands ou leurs vecteurs. Étrangers aux pays (fonctionnaires notamment), voyageurs, villégiateurs, touristes enfin, n'ont ni les mêmes saisonnalités, ni les mêmes besoins ou aspirations : les uns cultivent un art consommé de l'économie - ou de l'identique -, les autres s'adonnent aux plaisirs recherchés de la table. Les guides enregistrent ces besoins de bonnes (et parfois moins bonnes) surprises. Mais, si dans l'invitation au voyage, butinage et cabotage alimentaires prennent une place croissante, le « terroir gourmand » peut-il, à lui seul, faire tourisme ? Outre que la nationalisation des cuisines régionales est plus ou moins constante, l'artisanat gustatif est souvent devenu vitrine d'industries alimentaires. S'il existe donc bien une carte des saveurs - décor préalable au ravissement des papilles qui contribue à la construction des envies d'ailleurs -, la question est alors de savoir ce qu'il reste d'authentique dans une alimentation « des vacances », traversée de métissages et de bricolages. Au carrefour du local et du global, les frontières culturelles et culinaires, ont-elles en définitive vocation à prévenir les situations de conflit au sein des identités régionales ? Voilà quelques-unes des questions auxquelles répond ce livre, en explorant les nombreux critères de jugement qui lient territoires touristiques et imaginaires gustatifs.

Sommario/riassunto

A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org.Camera Palaestina is a critical exploration of Jerusalemite chronicler Wasif Jawhariyyeh (1904–1972) and his seven photography albums entitled The Illustrated History of Palestine. Jawhariyyeh’s nine hundred images narrate the rich cultural and political milieu of Ottoman and Mandate Palestine. Nassar, Sheehi, and Tamari locate this archive at the juncture between the history of photography in the Arab world and the social history of Palestine.



Shedding new light on this foundational period, the authors explore not just major historical events and the development of an urban bourgeois lifestyle but a social field of vision of Palestinian life as exemplified in the Jerusalem community. Tracking the interplay between photographic images, the authors offer evidence of the unbroken field of material, historical, and collective experience from the living past to the living present of Arab Palestine.
