  • Hannah Gould et al., "Death and Funeral Practices in Japan" (Routledge, 2024)

    Hannah Gould et al., "Death and Funeral Practices in Japan" (Routledge, 2024)
    2024/12/20
    Death and Funeral Practices in Japan (Routledge, 2024) is an essential introductory text an often overlooked element of cultural expression. The books offers a succinct history to the development of funeral practices over time, and describes a typical contemporary funeral in detail. Japanese funerals reflect the strength of continuing ancestor veneration (senzo kuyō), but face the challenge of high-density urbanisation and and reduction in family size which can lead to isolation at the time of death. The text explains new trends in funeral practices, including ‘tree burials’ and ‘eternal memorial graves’. This information is supported by material on religious, legal and governance frameworks. This text is part of an extended series of handbooks that gives the reader a clear and accessible introduction to funeral practices in countries all over the world. In this podcast, Julie Rugg of the UK's Cemetery Research Group talks to Hannah Gould about a surprising funeral culture that merges deep tradition and high-tech innovation.

  • Academic Chat – From Academic Work to Social Impact: A Scholar’s Commitment to Raise Awareness on Migrant Experiences in Taiwan

    Academic Chat – From Academic Work to Social Impact: A Scholar’s Commitment to Raise Awareness on Migrant Experiences in Taiwan
    2024/12/20
    In this episode, our host Lara Momesso interviews Dr Isabelle Cockel, an academic based in the UK, to discuss the wider impact of her academic work. Isabelle’s extensive research on marriage and labour migrants in Taiwan has evolved into efforts to raise awareness of migrant issues beyond the academic sphere both in Asia and Europe. She has written blogs featuring migrant voices, translated and promoted films about migrants, and, whenever possible, she has worked to assist migrants in Taiwan. For those who are interested to know more about Isabelle’s work, here you can find some links: University of Portsmouth profile Migrant Biographies, series on the Blog at Leiden University: Movie translation: The Lovable Strangers by Tsung-Lung Tsai and Nguyễn Kim Hồng Taiwan Insight at the University of Nottingham Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Timothy Gitzen, "Banal Security: Queer Korea in the Time of Viruses" (Helsinki UP, 2023)

    Timothy Gitzen, "Banal Security: Queer Korea in the Time of Viruses" (Helsinki UP, 2023)
    2024/12/13
    For more than 70 years, South Korea has woven the threat of North Korea into daily life. But now that threat has become mundane, and South Korean national security addresses family, public health, and national unity. Banal Security: Queer Korea in the Time of Viruses (Helsinki University Press, 2023) illustrates how as a result, queer Koreans are seen to represent a viral threat to national security. Taking readers from police stations and the Constitutional Court to queer activist offices and pride festivals, Timothy Gitzen shows how security weaves through daily life and diffuses the queer threat, in a context where queer Koreans are treated as viral carriers, disruptions to public order, and threats to family and culture. Timothy Gitzen is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Wake Forest University. Qing Shen recently obtained his PhD in anthropology from Uppsala University, Sweden.
