This volume introduces key concepts for a trans/national expansion in the study of culture. Using translation as an analytical category, it explores what is translatable and untranslatable between nation-specific approaches such as British/American cultural studies, German Kulturwissenschaften and other traditions in studying culture. The range of articles included in the book covers both theoretical reflections and specific case studies that analyze the tensions and compatibilities amongst contemporary perspectives on the study of culture. By testing various key concepts – translation, cultural transfer, travelling concepts – this volume reflects on an essential vocabulary and common points of reference for scholars seeking new frameworks and methodologies for the foundation of a trans/national study of culture that is commensurate with the entangled nature of our world society.

Download Methods of Study of Culture Contact in Africa Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This antique text contains a detailed treatise on the contacting of indigenous tribes and communities on the continent of Africa. This brochure is a reprint of a series of papers that appeared during 1934, 1935 and 1936 in the journal of the African Institute, the sponsor of the field-work out of which these discussions arose. Since all the contributors write from their first-hand experience, the essays have that peculiarly attractive freshness that can only come when those faced with problems of method describe and evaluate the devices they employ with the difficulties that face them in the course of their research. This text has been elected for modern republication due to its educational and historical value, and we are proud to republish it here complete with a new introductory biography of the author. Bronisław Kasper Malinowski (1884–1942) was a Polish anthropologist,who is commonly hailed as one of the most influential anthropologists of the 20th-century.

This academic book is one of the few rigorous studies (a doctoral dissertation) that sheds light on the ambiguous and challenging-to-test relationship of national culture and entrepreneurship. It offers entrepreneurs, potential entrepreneurs, relevant policy-makers, and researchers an understanding and a remedy path to the entrepreneurial phenomena in their nations from a validated cross-country cultural perspective. The book begins with a thorough overview of the academic advancements in the areas of entrepreneurship, national culture, and the interactions between both fields. After an assessment and critique of available measures, it moves into building its own propositions and assumptions.
