| dc.description | On first sight, the family is the core of intimate life away from society, where the home constitutes the physical and symbolic private sphere. Conceived as such, domestic life in the Middle East and elsewhere was studied until recently in isolation from broader economic, political, and cultural transformations. This volume argues for a different positioning of private and public through the exploration of various venues of actual and symbolic interactions between the two, and the impact of such interactions on domestic consumption. It brings political economy, hence the issues pertaining to the state and the market, and ideology in the form of modernity and nationalism, to bear on family life and the shape of its closest environment: homes and their contents | en_US |
