World of Fine Difference: The Social Architecture of a Modern Irish Village: The Social Architecture of a Modern Irish Village

Více o knize

The book explores the impact of economic modernization on rural communities, questioning whether the unique aspects of rural identity have been diminished by external political and cultural influences. It presents the first comprehensive ethnographic study of an Irish community in years, addressing a gap in anthropological research since the 1980s, which has largely focused on brief articles rather than extensive studies. The author's extensive experience in Ireland enriches this analysis.
