    Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Abnutzung / Risse - leicht. This volume critically examines the representation and management of cultural diversity across various contexts, including artistic, scientific, political, theatrical, media, fashion, and everyday life, both historically and in contemporary settings. It highlights how specific socio-cultural features create asymmetries and hierarchies among individuals, groups, and cultural resources. The text questions the processes of regulation, standardization, and homogenization of diversity while addressing the contradictory dynamics of inclusion and exclusion that arise in the construction of differences between the Self and the Other. Emphasizing the fluidity of cultural entanglements, it adopts a transcultural perspective that unifies diverse topics and contexts, showcasing their inter- and transdisciplinary nature. As globalization, decolonization, migration, and mediatization bring diversity to the forefront of scholarly and public discourse, the book encourages a re-examination of norms, practices, and negotiations surrounding diversity and otherness. By contrasting emancipatory and standardizing approaches, it invites readers to "transculturalize" the study and politics of culture, fostering a deeper understanding of these complex dynamics.

    Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. The exploration of power and domination within societal structures has been central to sociology since its inception. Max Weber's definition of power as "imposing one's will on others" remains pertinent in understanding processes in the arts, including production, communication, and consumption. Domination in the arts is enforced by both internal and external authorities through institutional frameworks and prevailing beliefs about legitimacy, which shape art tastes. The intricate relationship between the arts and power stems from the policies governing artistic production, distribution, and consumption, which can either facilitate or obstruct an aesthetic object's access to its audience. Curators, critics, and collectors utilize various forms of cultural communication to reflect and influence existing social, economic, and political conditions. This volume brings together diverse perspectives that examine the societal roles of art within contexts of domination and power, addressing both oppressive and progressive uses of art. The contributions serve as exploratory steps toward a more systematic and theoretically grounded sociological discourse on the intersection of arts and power, inviting further inquiry and discussion.

    Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. This book critically examines multiple ways in which cultural diversity is represented and handled in a variety of contexts, from the artistic to the scientific, from the political to the theatrical, in media, fashion and everyday life, today as well as in the past. By drawing from the observation that specific socio-cultural features are made relevant to create asymmetries and hierarchies between individuals, groups and cultural resources, the volume questions, on the one hand, contingent processes of regulation, standardization, and homogenization of diversity. It points at contradictory processes of in- and exclusion related to the construction of differences between the Self and the Other in processes of doing culture. On the other hand, it recognizes and emphasizes the fluidity of cultural entanglements by adopting a transcultural perspective, which unifies the variety of the topics and of the contexts covered by the chapters, as well as their inter- and transdisciplinarity. While processes such as globalization, decolonization, migration, and mediatization have contributed to place diversity at the centre-stage of both scholarly and non-scholarly debates, this book invites to re-think norms, practices and negotiations of diversity and otherness through a variety of narrations, standardizations, imaginations, and negotiations. By emphasizing the contrast between emancipatory vs. standardizing approaches to diversity and otherness it also invites to transculturalize the study and the politics of culture.
