  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Rethinking Wilderness and the Wild

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisRethinking Wilderness and the Wild: Conflict, Conservation and Co-existence examines the complexities surrounding the concept of wilderness. Contemporary wilderness scholarship has tended to fall into two categories: the so-called fortress conservation' and co-existence' schools of thought. This book, contending that this polarisation has led to a silencing and concealment of alternative perspectives and lines of enquiry, extends beyond these confines and in particular steers away from the dilemmas of paradise or paradox in order to advance an intellectual and policy agenda of plurality and diversity rather than of prescription and definition. Drawing on case studies from Australia, Aoteoroa/New Zealand, the United States and Iceland, and explorations of embodied experience, creative practice, philosophy, and First Nations land management approaches, the assembled chapters examine wilderness ideals, conflicts and human-nature dualities afresh, and examine co-existencTable of ContentsPart 1.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWorking with and for Ancestors examines collaborative partnerships that have developed around the study and care of Indigenous ancestral human remains. In the interest of reconciliation, museums and research institutions around the world have begun to actively seek input and direction from Indigenous descendants in establishing collections care and research policies. However, true collaboration is difficult,?time-consuming, and sometimes awkward. By presenting examples of projects involving ancestral remains that are successfully engaged in collaboration, the book provides encouragement for scientists and descendant communities alike to have open and respectful discussions around the research and care of ancestral human remains. Key themes for discussion include new approaches to the care for ancestors; the development of culturally sensitive museum policies; the emergence of mutually beneficial research partnerships; and emerging issues such as those of intelTable of ContentsPart 1 Building Relationships: Proceed with Respect and Patience 1 Bearing Witness: What Can Archaeology Contribute in an Indian Residential School Context? 2 Pathway to Decolonizing Collections of Ainu Ancestral Remains: Recent Developments in Repatriation Within Japan 3 The Brandon Indian Residential School Cemetery Project: Working Towards Reconciliation Using Forensic Anthropology and Archaeology 4 Washington’s Non-Forensic Human Skeletal Remains Law and the State Physical Anthropologist: A Collaborative Process and Model for Other States 5 Bii-Azhe Ḡiiwé Iná Daanig (Let’s Bring Them Home): Lessons in Humility, Relationships, and Changing Perspectives Part 2 Caring for the Ancestors: Developments in Museum Collaborations 6 Why We Repatriate: On the Long Arc Toward Justice at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science 7 the Importance of Kaitiakitanga (Guardianship and Care) and Rangahau (Research) for the Karanga Aotearoa Repatriation Programme 8 Toward a Twenty-First-Century Model for the Collaborative Care and Curation of Human Remains 9 The Southern African Human Remains Management Project: Making (P)Reparations in Year One 10 Caring for the Ancestors at the Royal BC Museum Part 3 Learning From the Ancestors: Collaborative Research Projects 11 The Journey Home: Sto:Lō Values and Collaboration in Repatriation 12 the Joy of the Souls: the Return of the Huron-Wendat Ancestors 13 Building Relationships to Shift Accountability: Doing Paleogenomic Research with Indigenous Nations and Ancestors 14 Learning from Ancestors Caring for Ancestors: The Antiquity of Reburial On Bkejwanong 15 New Insights from Old Dog Bones: Dogs as Proxies for Understanding Ancient Human Diets Part 4 Developing Conversations: Doing Better Together 16 The Digital Lives of Ancestors: Ethical and Intellectual Property Considerations Surrounding the 3-D Recording of Human Remains 17 What Next?

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Diversity of Law in the United Arab Emirates

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book examines the law and its practice in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The objective is to understand the logic of the legal system in the UAE through a rounded analysis of its laws in context. It thus presents an understanding of the system on its own terms beyond the accepted Western model.The book shows how the Emirati law differs from the conventional rule of law. The first section of the book deals with the imperial, international, and cultural background of the Emirati legal system and its influences on some of the elements of the legal system today. It maps the state's international legal obligations according to core human rights treaties showing how universal  interpretations of rights may differ from Emirati interpretations of rights. This logic is further illustrated through an overview of the legal system, in federal, local, and free zones and how the UAE's diversity of legal sources from Islamic and colonial law provides legal adaptability. The seconTrade ReviewThe study is a masterfully documented analysis of a legal system—and a legal tradition—that is unknown and barely studied. Consequently, this study is particularly relevant and necessary in our globalised world which is characterized by the transnational nature of legal mechanisms. The interweaving and hybridization of legal systems calls for an effort to understand the ‘other’ in its singularity and specificities. The author’s reflections are thus a brilliant contribution to the effort to better understand it, and as such deserve to be read and commented on.Pascal Richard. MCF-HDR public law.

  • Taylor & Francis Museums Societies and the Creation of Value

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisMuseums, Societies and the Creation of Value focuses on the ways in which museums and the use of their collections have contributed to, and continue to be engaged with, value creation processes.Including chapters from many of the leading figures in museum anthropology, as well as from outstanding early-career researchers, this volume presents a diverse range of international case studies that bridge the gap between theory and practice. It demonstrates that ethnographic collections and the museums that hold and curate them have played a central role in the value creation processes that have changed attitudes to cultural differences. The essays engage richly with many of the important issues of contemporary museum discourse and practice. They show how collections exist at the ever-changing point of articulation between the source communities and the people and cultures of the museum and challenge presentist critiques of museums that position them as locked into the timTable of ContentsList of Figures; List of Contributors; Introduction; Section I Making and Remaking of Collections; Chapter 1 Inalienable patrimony and museums: re-valuing the MacGregor collection; Chapter 2 The emergence of value in the process of the Sámi repatriation: Bååstede; Chapter 3 Colonial collections in British military museums: of objects, materiality and sentiment; Chapter 4 Rephotography as a value creation technology in the nineteenth century: collecting, reproducing and exchanging; Section II Creating Value – Inside and Outside the Museum; Chapter 5 Aboriginal secret-sacred objects, their values and future prospects; Chapter 6 Systems of value in Vanuatu: reflections on the Ambae textile complex; Chapter 7 Displaying, creating and mobilizing value in a museum exhibition: Pacific Currents in Cambridge; Chapter 8 The revaluation of historical collections by source communities: the string figures of Yirrkala; Section III Engagement and Return; Chapter 9 ‘Go throw it in the river’, shifting values and the productive confusions of collaboration with museum collections; Chapter 10 Digital return of an ethnographic museum collection and value creation by an originating community in Baguia, Timor-Leste; Chapter 11 Digital/object/beings and 3D replication in the intercultural museum context: have you socialized your clones?; Section IV Indigenous Agency; Chapter 12 Value creation and museums from an Indigenous perspective; Chapter 13 Yolŋu pathways to value creation in museum and archival collections: the work and journey of Joseph Gumbula; Chapter 14 Creating value through cultural capital: ‘Witira Kanyila – "work as one to make it strong"'; Index.
