After a week long back Film: Professional Fuji Astia 100f country stint in Denali I put him on the redeye flight home as school started the next morning. I wouldn’t trade our time together for anything - it was a blast. On the drive back home from Alaska I took my time going through Canada. I wasn’t in my home country anymore, I was the foreigner and I was about to have an epiphany. There are amazing nature sights to behold there - everywhere. The first snowfall of the season had just dusted the mountains. I starred in awe as the clouds parted and a beam of light touched the surface of this stunning mountain lake and illuminated the entire valley. Man’s pitiful attempt to place arbitrary lines upon the surface of the earth to retain what they believe to be ‘theirs’, and call them “borders”, yields because beauty knows nothing about that, beauty knows no borders.

  • How Do Literary Works Cross Borders (Or Not)? a Sociological Approach to World Literature
    Journal of World Literature 1 (2016) 81–96 brill.com/jwl How Do Literary Works Cross Borders (or Not)? A Sociological Approach to World Literature Gisèle Sapiro cnrs and École des hautes études en sciences sociales [email protected] Abstract This paper analyzes the factors that trigger or hinder the circulation of literary works beyond their geographic and cultural borders, i.e. participating in the mechanisms of the production of World Literature. For the sake of analysis, these factors can be clas- sified into four categories: political (or more broadly ideological), economic, cultural and social. Being embodied by institutions and by individual agents, these factors can support or contradict one another, thus causing tensions and struggles. This paper ends with reflections on the two opposite tendencies that characterize the transnational lit- erary field: isomorphism and the differentiation logics. Keywords World Literature – sociology of literature – sociology of translation – international circulation of literature – field theory If we consider world literature as referring to those literary works that circulate beyond their national borders (Damrosch), then we have to ask how these works circulate, and what obstacles they encounter (Apter). These obstacles are not only linguistic; there are many social obstacles, just as there are social factors that trigger the circulation of texts regardless of their intrinsic value. A sociological approach is thus required in order to identify these factors and the mechanisms of production of World Literature as well as its specific hierarchies (Casanova). In a seminal paper on “[t]he social conditions of the circulation of ideas,” Pierre Bourdieu outlined a program for studying the strategies elaborated by individuals or groups implied in this process (Bourdieu “Social Conditions”).

  • Terms of Reference Photography And
    TERMS OF REFERENCE PHOTOGRAPHY AND PRODUCTION OF A COFFEE TABLE BOOK ON THE MULTIVERSE OF WOMEN IN THE IGAD REGION Background Land governance across borders or transnational land governance looks at rule making, standard setting and institution building across borders. Empirically, one can see a variety of patterns of regulatory governance emerging. The studies commissioned by IGAD in 2016 reviewing the of land governance systems in the IGAD Member States identified four transnational elements: state sovereignty over land; legal pluralism (customary and statutory); gender biases in access to land; land tenure insecurity and land conflicts. In the IGAD Region, national organisation as a structuring principle of societal and political action can no longer serve as the orienting reference point. This creates the need for increased cooperation among nations. The IGAD region finds itself in a time where economic, social and political developments in one country are increasingly affected by developments in others; and where opportunities and threats to people are no longer exclusively the responsibility of individual governments; The transnational sphere of land governance in the IGAD region is built neither upon nor beyond national institutional frameworks (full integration). Rather, the transnational sphere of land governance in the IGAD region transcends national borders while at the same time being entangled in historically contingent institutions and shaped by actors rooted in locally and nationally diverse contexts (Convergence). In dealing with cross border contexts in land governance, it is important to understand how transnational rules are implemented on the ground, how they are monitored by civil and public actors, and whether there is any learning from local experiences going on, or not.
