The Italian Diaspora in South Africa Nostalgia Identity and Belonging in the Second and Third Generations

The Italian Diaspora in South Africa Nostalgia Identity and Belonging in the Second and Third Generations

This book investigates the experiences of second- and third-generation Italians living in South Africa exploring how nostalgia for Italy influences their sense of identity and belonging. The Italian community in South Africa is a unique diaspora with a complex history including roots in Italian colonial activities in Africa and in World War II. This book looks at how the descendants of these early migrants take pride in being Italian and value the Italian language. They also ascribe much importance to their family roots and have often created a romanticized image of Italy mostly based on childhood vacation visits. The longing for an imaginary idealized version of Italy is closely linked to their wider search for a sense of identity and belonging against the backdrop of South African society currently still grappling with its own multicultural identity. Interdisciplinary by design this book draws on insights from both cultural studies and psychology in order to shine a light on an important and under-studied diasporic community. The book will be of interest to scholars from across migration studies and the Humanities in general.

The Anatomy of Inclusive Cities Insight into Migrants in Selected Capital Cities of Southern Africa

Creating cities inclusive of immigrants in Southern Africa is both a balancing act and a protracted process that requires positive attitudes informed by accommodative institutional frameworks. This book revolves around two key contemporary issues that cities around the globe are trying to achieve – viz. the need to build inclusive cities and the need to accommodate immigrants.

This book discusses the host–immigrant interface by providing a detailed insight of anchors of inclusive cities and a holistic picture of who immigrants are. These are then discussed contextually within the Southern African region where insight into selected cities is provided to some depth using empirical evidence. The discussion on inclusive cities and immigrants is a universal narrative targeting practitioners and students in town and regional planning urban studies urban politics migration and international relations. The Southern African region once more provides an opportunity to further interrogate and understand the dynamics of immigration in selected cities.

Culture Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis Breaking Boundaries

Culture Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis Breaking Boundaries

Winner of the 2023 American Board & Academy of Psychoanalysis Book Prize! Culture Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis traces the emergence of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis and demonstrates how the radical cross-disciplinary dialogues that form its foundation are relevant to present-day social and cultural challenges. Psychoanalysts today are grappling with how to address a host of societal and political crises. In the 1930s a similar set of crises led a group of progressive practitioners and scholars to engage in a radical cross-disciplinary dialogue that became the foundation for Interpersonal Psychoanalysis. Pioneering psychoanalysts created a form of thought and practice that viewed human suffering through the wider lens of society and culture and provided a means to address the pervasive issues of racism sexuality and politics in human experience. With contributions from leading psychoanalysts and scholars and by making use of original sources this book evidences the significance of this approach to understanding marginalisation today. Written in an open and accessible fashion Culture Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis demonstrates the importance of the early interpersonal-cultural school for the present moment. The book will appeal to a broad audience in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy the history of medicine and social and cultural theory. | Culture Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis Breaking Boundaries

Architecture and the Landscape of Modernity in China before 1949

Architecture and the Landscape of Modernity in China before 1949

This book explores China’s encounter with architecture and modernity in the tumultuous epoch before Communism – an encounter that was mediated not by a singular notion of modernism emanating from the west but that was uniquely multifarious deriving from a variety of sources both from the west and importantly from the east. The heterogeneous origins of modernity in China are what make its experience distinctive and its architectural encounters exceptional. These experiences are investigated through a re-evaluation of established knowledge of the subject within the wider landscape of modern art practices in China. The study draws on original archival and photographic material from different artistic genres and architecturally concentrates on China’s engagement with the west through the treaty ports and leased territories the emergence of architecture as a profession in China and Japan’s omnipresence not least in Manchuria which reached its apogee in the puppet state of Manchukuo. The study’s geographically temporally and architecturally inclusive approach framed by the concept of multiple modernities questions the application of conventional theories of modernity or post-colonialism to the Chinese situation. By challenging conventional modernist historiography that has marginalised the experiences of the west’s other for much of the last century this book proposes different ways of grappling with and comprehending the distinction and complexity of China’s experiences and its encounter with architectural modernity. | Architecture and the Landscape of Modernity in China before 1949
