Concerning architecture and the city, built, imagined and narrated, this book focuses on Manhattan and Venice, but considers architecture as an intellectual and spatial process rather than a product. A critical look at the making of Manhattan and Venice provides a background to addressing the dynamic redefinition and making of space today. The gradual processes of adjustment, the making of a constantly changing dense space, the emphasis on forming rather than on figure, the incorporation of new forms and languages through their adaptation and transformation, make both Manhattan and Venice, in different ways, the ideal places to contextualize and address the issue of an architecture of the dynamic.

Paradigms Of Power written by Sharon W. Tiffany and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1985 with Anthropology categories.
This article addresses the epistemological problem in anthropology of women as Other the subordinate, the muted, the peripheral with particular reference to the ethnographic literature on Oceania. The ideas and images that form the value-loaded premise of women as Other reflect ongoing controversies about power, sex, and gender in the West controversies that influence the discipline of anthropology in ways that feminists have yet to consider systematically. My purpose is to examine, from a feminist perspective, the paradigmatic problems of gender and politics in anthropology and to illustrate these problems with selected works that have influenced anthropological theory and Pacific ethnography. This discussion will help provide feminists in other disciplines with background necessary for understanding the diverse contexts of gender relations across cultures and for assessing the epistemological problems confronting current anthropological research and discourse about women.

In this examination of religion's influence on society, an anthropologist critiques fundamentalism and all mindsets based on rigid cultural certainties. The author argues that the future can only be safeguarded by a global humanistic outlook that recognizes and respects differing cultural perspectives and endorses the use of critical reason and empiricism. Houk coins the term "culturalism" to describe dogmatic viewpoints governed by culture-specific values and preconceived notions. Culturalism gives rise not only to fundamentalism in religion but also stereotypes about race, gender, and sexual orientation. Turning specifically to Christian fundamentalism, the author analyzes the many weaknesses of what he calls a faith-based epistemology, particularly as such thinking is displayed in young-earth creationism, the reliance on revelation and subjective experiences as a source of religious knowledge, and the reverence accorded the Bible despite its obvious flaws. As he points out, the problem with such cultural knowledge generally is that it is non-falsifiable and ultimately has no lasting value in contrast to the data-based and falsifiable knowledge produced by science, which continues to prove its worth as a reliable source of accurate information. Concluding that there is no future to the fundamentalist mindset in a diverse world where religion often exacerbates conflicts, he makes a strong case for reason and mutual tolerance.
