Cultures of Development Cultures of Development The North Atlantic development establishment has had a blemished track record over the past 65 years. In addition to a sizeable portfolio of failure, the few economic success stories in the developing world, such as South Korea and China, have been achieved by rejecting the advice of Western experts. Despite these realities, debates within mainstream development studies have stagnated around a narrow, acultural emphasis on institutions or the size and role of government. Cultures of Development uses a contrapuntal comparison of Vietnam and Brazil to show why it is important for development scholars and practitioners to broaden their conceptualization of economies to include the socio-cultural. This smartly written book based on original, ethnographic research breathes new life into development studies by bringing cultural studies into conversation with develop - ment studies, with an emphasis on improving—rather than merely critiquing— market economies. The applied deployment of critical development studies, i.e., interpretive economics, results in a number of theoretical advances in both development and areas studies, demonstrating the economic importance of certain kinds of cultural work carried out by religious leaders, artists, activists, and educators. Most importantly, the reader comes to fully appreciate how economies are embedded within the subjectivities, discourses, symbols, rituals, norms, and values of a given society. This pioneering book revives development practice and policy by offering fresh insights and ideas about how development can be advanced. It will be of special interest to scholars and students of Development Studies, Sociology, Economics, Anthropology, and Area Studies. Jonathan Warren is Associate Professor of International Studies and Co-Director of the Center for Brazilian Studies at the University of Washington.

So I apologize in advance to the many individuals who deserve to be mentioned here but due largely to my poor memory are not credited below. This project would never have happened were it not for the Asia Foundation in Hanoi and the Luce Fellowship that I received to kick start the research for this book. The various people there—Jonathan Stromseth, Dinh Thi Kieu Nhung, Pham Thu Thuy, and Kim Ninh—were remarkably professional, hospitable, and supportive of me and my family. Other Hanoians who have been deeply caring as well as inspirational include Pho Duc Long, Mai Thi Thanh, Pham An Hai, Dang Xuan Hoa, Hoang Thuc Hao, Luong Vuong, and Nguyen Cong Cu (special thanks for letting me use reprints of your amazing artwork!). In Rio de Janeiro, I am heavily indebted to my dear friends who took care of me when I was penniless in Brazil some twenty-five years ago: Carla Simone Barbosa de Brito and Nando Neves (whose photos feature in this book) along with their children Matheus, Elizabeth, and Bia (who had to sacrifice her bedroom for me from time to time). I also wish to thank Eduardo Caio Torres dos Santos, Maria Isabel Sampaio, Ricardo Sheidemantel, and most especially Tania Torres dos Santos Scheidemantel for always keeping my wife and me in tears with her humor. I also much appreciate the camaraderie and academic guidance of the following scholars in Rio: Helena Galiza, Pedro de Novais Lima Junior, Carlos Vanier, and Ana Invanicki. In Aracuai I have had the incredibly good fortune (actually it feels more like divine intervention) to have had the support, friendship, and guidance of the following sages for well over two decades: Geralda Chaves Soares, Franciscus Henricus van der Poel, Maria do Carmo Ferreira da Silva, Maria Lira Marques, and Cleonice Pankararu. I hope I have done some justice to your incredible lives and accomplishments. In more recent years, I have been extremely lucky to have met and worked with the following activists and academics who have visited the University of Washington (UW) for extended periods of time and have offered me invaluable feedback on this project: Adailton de Oliveira Gomes, Kercia Figueiredo, Nivia Luz, Sylvana Marques, Marynize Prates de Oliveira, and Rodrigo Peixoto. V O U C H E R S xiv Acknowledgments At Seattle, a number of colleagues and students read and weighed in on various drafts of chapters and provided much needed encouragement: Robert Andolina, Andrea Arai, Charles Bergquist, Patrick Christie, Jay Freistadt, Christoph Giebel, Gary Hamilton, Joe Hannah, Don Hellman, Judith Henchey, Brice Henson, Victoria Lawson, Jose Antonio Lucero, Angelica and Scott Macklin, Joel Migdal, Ngo Hoang, Nguyen Diu Huong, Christian Novetske, Vincent Raphael, Ileana Rodriguez-Silva, Matthew Sparke, and Jim Wellman. Special thanks, too, to the UW Center for Brazilian Studies faculty: Margaret Griesse, Orlando Baiocchi, and the Honorary Counsel General of Brazil, Pedro Leite Augusto Costa. The UW- Frankfurt HI-NORM faculty cluster also deserves praise for their contributions to my thinking: Jose Casanova, Jurgen Habermas, Mathias Lutz-Bachmann, Gregg Miller, Amos Nascimento, Andres Niederberger, Mike Shapiro, and Bill Talbott.

Jane Marie McDermott San Francisco, California 2016 All the Time in the World is the story of gay young people coming to San Francisco in the 1970s and what happens to them in the course of thirty years. Additionally, the novel tells the stories of the people they meet along-the way - a lesbian mother, a World War II veteran, a drag queen - people who never considered that they even had a story to tell until they began to tell it. In the end, All the Time in the World documents a remarkable era in gay history and serves as a testament to the galvanizing effects of love and loss and the enduring power of friendship. I certify that the Annotation is a correct representation of the content of this written creative work.

    2004/2009 Primeira Edição Rio de Janeiro 2017 Roberta Sá 19/01/2009 Foto Lucíola Villela EXTRA / Agência O Globo Sumário 6 Circo Voador 8.Apresentação 21.Linha do Tempo/ Coleção de MiniDV 2004/2009 7 Apresentação Depois de mais de sete anos fechado, o Circo 13/07/2004 Voador foi reinaugurado no dia 22 de julho de Foto Michel Filho 2004. Os anos entre o fechamento e a reabertura Agência O Globo foram de muita militância cultural, política e judicial, num movimento que reuniu pessoas da classe artística e políticos comprometidos com as causas culturais. Vencedor de uma ação popular, o Circo Voador ganhou o direito de voltar ao funcionamento, e a prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro ‒ que havia demolido o arcabouço anterior ‒ foi obrigada a construir uma nova estrutura para a casa. Com uma nova arquitetura, futurista e mais atenta às questões acústicas inerentes a uma casa de shows, o Circo retomou as atividades no segundo semestre de 2004 e segue ininterruptamente oferecendo opções de diversão, alegria e formação artística ao público do Rio e a todos os amantes de música e arte em geral. 8 Circo Voador Apresentação Uma característica do Acervo Circo Voador pós-reabertura é que a grande maioria dos eventos tem registro filmado. Ao contrário do período 1982-1996, que conta com uma cobertura significativa mas relativamente pequena (menos de 15% dos shows filmados), após 2004 temos mais de 95% dos eventos registrados em vídeo. O formato do período que este catálogo abrange, que vai de 2004 a 2009, é a fita MiniDV, extremamente popular à época por sua relação custo-benefício e pela resolução de imagem sensivelmente melhor do que outros formatos profissionais e semiprofissionais.

Kasvinsky, Dean, School of Graduate Studies and Research Date © A. Murray 2011 ABSTRACT This thesis explores the universal journey of self discovery against the specific backdrop of the south coast of England where the narrator, an American woman in her early twenties, lives and works as a barmaid with her female travel companion. Aside from outlining the journey from outsider to insider within a particular cultural context, the thesis seeks to understand the implications of a defining friendship that ultimately fails, the ways a young life is shaped through travel and loss, and the sacrifices a person makes when choosing a place to call home. The thesis follows the narrator from her initial departure for England at the age of twenty-two through to her final return to Ohio at the age of twenty-seven, during which time the friendship with the travel companion is dissolved and the narrator becomes a wife and a mother.
