From a-dandrea at uchicago.edu Sat Aug 8 17:12:07 2009 From: a-dandrea at uchicago.edu (Anthony D'Andrea) Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2009 08:12:07 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Dancecult-l] Book "Global Nomads" (Routledge ILS - Relaunch) Message-ID: <662856.74162.qm@web45705.mail.sp1.yahoo.com> Dear Dancecult-l list members: I'd like to announce that my book Global Nomads: Techno and New Age as Transnational Countercultures in Ibiza and Goa is now available in affordable paperback. A study on cultural globalization, it examines the social life of highly mobile expatriates involved in global circuits of countercultural practice and international tourism. Of particular interest to EDM scholars, the book explores how global centers of clubbing (Ibiza) and psytrance (Goa) evolve upon a productive tension between their countercultural origins and commodification/surveillance regimes. It includes specific analyses of trance parties, mega nightclubs and DJs through the prism of tribal religiosity, social ecology, and economic geography. Based on my doctoral research at the Department of Anthropology at the University of Chicago, Global Nomads is being now relaunched by Routledge in its premium series International Library of Sociology. Widely available at online booksellers (Amazon, eBay, Barnes & Noble, Borders, etc.), it can also be found at Routledge official website: http://www.routledge.com/books/Global-Nomads-isbn9780415553674 Hope you find this interesting. Please feel free to forward this announcement. Thanks. Anthony "The nomad does not move."

Much of my work in Berlin is with the Archive of Youth Cultures, an amazing media archive, mostly of German subcultures, that includes more than 20,000 fanzines. www.jugendkulturen.de. We will soon have better English language web presence, so stay tuned. I would like to announce our special project here to expand our holdings of EDM cultures into the first official Archive of Rave and Club Culture. Please see the attached press release. Our EDM collections are already the largest in Germany - over 3,000 EDM fanzines, hundreds of press clippings and countless flyers. Above all, I hope you will consider donating copies of your scholarly work to the archive (we also have a library of about 100 books and academic publications). Most of the books are in German, and I am working to expand the English language scholarly holdings. Your work will in this way easily be made better known to the many scholars and journalists that pass through Berlin. Finally, if you also have any EDM material (fanzines, flyers, clothes, etc) that you would wish to donate, we would greatly appreciate it. Please contact me if you have any questions or comments. And once again, please see the attached press release and forward it to interested parties.
