Description

Houses Transformed: Anthropological Perspectives on Changing Practices of Dwelling and Building offers an in-depth look at the global evolution of vernacular houses. Published by Berghahn Books, this volume uses ethnographic accounts from various regions to examine how building practices change within a transnational context. Readers will explore how house biographies connect to social change and the politics involved in housing design. The text examines the social fabrication of aspirational homes, the domestication of concrete, and the relationship between materiality and ontology. By analyzing the rhetoric of the vernacular, this collection provides new anthropological pathways to understand the shifting dynamics of how humans dwell and build in a changing world.
