Law, Registration, and the State

Law, Registration, and the State

Jess Smith

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
sidottu
This book provides an original and compelling analysis of registration as a dynamic process which makes and unmakes legal identities.Critical legal and socio-legal scholarship tends to assume that registration is a textually mediated act of statecraft which governs through the technology of writing. Taking a different approach, this book develops movement as socio-legal method to illustrate the legal, social, and bureaucratic layers of movement which unfold in everyday engagements with the law. The book presents empirical and theoretical analysis of historical, contemporary, and future-oriented places of registration: a community hub, a city of pilgrimage, and the General Register Office. Drawing from diverse perspectives across anthropology, geography, sociology, architecture, and mobility studies, the book argues for an understanding of registration as evolving, socially constructed, and shaped by spatial imaginaries which are materialised in its architecture. This mobile understanding of registration expands conceptual discussions of legal materiality whilst opening up possibilities for legal identities unconstrained by the assumed desirability of stability or endurance. This interdisciplinary book will appeal primarily to a sociolegal, critical legal, and legal geography readership; but it will also be of interest to those in other disciplines concerned with materiality, movement, and statecraft.

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

Making Synthwave: How an Online Music Community Invented a Genre documents the journey of an online community in their formation of the synthwave genre.Taking an emic perspective that delivers a behind-the-scenes, access-all-areas telling of synthwave’s story from the very beginning to the mid 2020s, this ethnographic account offers a full history and development of the online synthwave community. Through an insightful longitudinal virtual ethnography by a composer, producer and performer, the book observes how artists, audiences, musicians, producers and performers have come together to negotiate the musical and cultural boundaries of 1980s ‘throwback’ style synthwave. The book makes visible tacit knowledge of the synthwave creative process, as well as providing rich and experiential subcultural detail that situates synthwave as an active community of practice which formulated its roots as a music genre exclusively online in the early 2000s.This book is essential reading for music makers in a variety of genres and scholars of popular music, cultural theory and music production, as well as those interested in the nuances of music-making on the internet, creative processes with synthesizers, and the mechanics of genre theory and community music in the digital age.

Identity, Social Class and Learning in the ‘Bottom’ Reading Group

Identity, Social Class and Learning in the ‘Bottom’ Reading Group

Jess Anderson

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
The common practice of ability-grouped reading in UK schools, often termed guided reading, influences children’s sense of identity, feelings and progress as readers. Drawing on a rich ethnographic study of three primary classrooms, this book reopens a critical inquiry into ability-grouped reading that has been quiet since the 1990s, when guided reading in literacy education became established practice in the UK and the US.Through the lens of children’s agency in accommodating, resisting and at times transforming such reading pedagogy, the book shows how readers are shaped by ability-grouped reading and by the more egalitarian reading pedagogies introduced in the study. Children’s individual and collective experiences are brought to life through extended narratives that attend as closely to gesture, posture, visage, silences and prosody of speech as to spoken words.The book ends with a provocation: how literacy pedagogy might change if reflexive noticing and dismantling of hierarchies become the compass of pedagogical change. This demands attention to structural inequalities around race, gender and class and a turn towards deep listening to children. As well as being a valuable read for scholars of the sociology of childhood and education, it should appeal to anyone concerned with making education more equitable, including teachers, school leaders, parents, carers and policymakers.
