Auteur secondaire: Deeb, Lara, 1974-....;Nalbantian, Tsolin;Sbaiti, Nadya, 19..-....Langue: anglais.Pays: EtatsUnis (US).Publication : Stanford, California : Stanford University Press, 2023Description : 1 volume (x-242 p.) ; 23 cmISBN: 978-1-5036-3386-5.Note de contenu: No room for this story : education and the limits of sectarianism during the Mandate Era / Nadya Sbaiti Negotiating citizenship : Shi'i families and the Ja'fari shari'a courts / Linda Sayed The archive is burning : law, unknowability, and the curation of history / Maya Mikdashi Donating in the name of the nation : charity, sectarianism, and the mahjar / Reem Bailony Along and beyond sect? : Olfactory aesthetics and Rum Orthodox identity / Roxana Maria Arãş From murder in New York To salvation from Beirut : Armenian intra-sectarianism / Tsolin Nalbantian Inequality and identity : social class, urban space and sect / Joanne Randa Nucho When exposure is not enough : sectarianism as a response to mixed marriage / Lara Deeb Résumé: "Practicing Sectarianism explores the imaginative and contradictory ways that people live sectarianism. Essays use the concept as an animating principle within a variety of sites across Lebanon and its diasporas and over a range of historical periods. With contributions from historians and anthropologists, this volume reveals the many ways sectarianism is used to exhibit, imagine, or contest power: What forms of affective pull does it have on people and communities? What epistemological work does it do as a concept? How does it function as a marker of social difference? Examining social interaction, each essay analyzes how people experience sectarianism, sometimes pushing back, sometimes evading it, sometimes deploying it strategically, to a variety of effects and consequences. The collection advances an understanding of sectarianism simultaneously constructed and experienced, a slippery and changeable concept with material effects. And even as the book's focus is Lebanon, its analysis fractures the association of sectarianism with the nation-state and suggests possibilities that can travel to other sites. Practicing Sectarianism , taken as a whole, argues that sectarianism can only be fully understood--and dismantled--if we first take it seriously as a practice"--.Bibliographie: Bibliogr. p. 221-232.
