_SHORT
ABSTRACT_
This panel focuses on homes, their material culture, values
and manners of inhabiting, trying to understand the whole set as an
expressive portrayal to show and explore some dynamics that characterize
contemporary society, based on ethnographic studies with a focus on
household and their ways of inhabiting.
LONG ABSTRACT
Over the past
decades have emerged relevant ethnographic work about the house and its
material culture that, on one hand reveals the complexity of
relationships established between home as physical structure, residents,
objects and values, and on the other show that both domestic space and
manners of inhabit embody important changes that are taking place in
contemporary societies. Taking into account the dispute of a future that
is made present, this panel invites papers presenting ethnographies
about houses, objects, forms, values, practices, relations and other
aspects involving the culture of domestic space. We welcome with special
interest papers crossing different disciplinary frames, allowing
diachronic analysis, comparing traditional and contemporary values,
demonstrating evolutionary meanings, and portraying different social and
economic contexts.
