Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 382 pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "Violence in culture and society is widely studied and hotly debated issue. Researchers of vernacular traditions or folklore have a special entrance point into studying violence, as many forms of violence are based on traditions and are justified with a reference to tradition. Some of these violent traditions are openly supported in their respective communities, but others call for research to explain how they survive when they are not explicitly and intentionally sustained or why they persist while being perceived as negative, oppressive, or degrading. The challenging point in understanding violence is that it is not always clear what counts as violence. The present volume explores a variety of issues in research into traditions of violence from all over the world and through the ages. The book contains an introduction and thirteen chapters with diverse and complementary perspectives, written by both younger and more established scholars in research into traditions.".…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In their study of social practices deemed traditional, scholars tend to use the concept and idea of tradition as an element of meaning in the practices under investigation. But just whose meaning is it Is it a meaning generated by those who study tradition or those whose traditions are being studied In both cases, particular criteria for traditionality are employed, whether these are explicated or not. Individuals and groups will no doubt continue to uphold their traditional practices or refer to their practices as traditional. While they are in no way obliged to explicate in analytical terms their criteria for traditionality, the same cannot be said for those who make the study of traditions their profession. In scholarly analysis, traditions need to be explained instead of used as explanations for apparent repetitions and replications or symbolic linking in social practice, values, history, and heritage politics. This book takes a closer look at 'tradition' and 'folklore' in order to conceptualize them within discourses on modernity and modernism. The first section discusses 'modern' and 'traditional' as modern concepts and the study of folklore as a modern trajectory. The underlying tenet here is that non-modernity cannot be represented without modern mediation, which therefore makes the representations of non-modernity epistemologically modern. The second section focuses on the nation-state of Finland and the nationalistic use of folk traditions in the discursive production of Finnish modernity and its Others. The insights are applicable worldwide in discussions on cultural representation. 216 pp. Englisch.…
