    Series series Alterations
    What need is there for kinship? What good is it anyway? The questions are as old as anthropology itself, but few answers have been enduringly persuasive. Kinship systems can contribute to our enslavement, but more often they permit, channel, and facilitate our relations with others and our further fashioning of ourselves-as kin but also as subjects of other kinds. When they do, they are among the ... Leer más

    Language Politics and the Abandoned Educational Dream

    de Charis Boutieri ...
    Series series Public Cultures of the Middle East and North Africa
    Learning in Morocco offers a rare look inside public education in the Middle East.
