Description

This ethnographic study breaks new ground in Mediterranean anthropology by moving beyond traditional analyses of honour and shame in small communities. The author examines how cultural definitions of gender interact with material processes in shaping personal and social identities within Naples' labour market. Facing scarce stable employment, household members in the region diversify their economic activities to survive, creating complex patterns that challenge conventional disciplinary approaches. The work demonstrates how gender can serve as a lens for investigating broad social processes and economic strategies in contemporary Mediterranean contexts. This used book in good condition offers valuable insights for students and scholars of anthropology, sociology, and Mediterranean studies.

Key Features

Bloomsbury's Mediterranea series provides rigorous anthropological scholarship examining gender, family structures and economic survival in Mediterranean regions.

The ethnographic account of Naples' labour market reveals how cultural definitions of gender shape household economic strategies and personal identities.

Gender, Family and Work in Naples challenges traditional Mediterranean anthropology by moving beyond honour and shame frameworks toward material analysis.

Used book in good condition preserves the author's investigation of how household members diversify economic activities when stable employment is scarce.

Routledge's anthropological examination connects gender studies with sociology and labour market research for academic and professional readers.
