Paperback. Condizione: New. The first comprehensive on-the-ground investigation of the global market for citizenship, examining the wealthy elites who buy passports, the states and brokers who sell them, and the normalization of a once shadowy practice.Our lives are in countless ways defined by our citizenship. It is no wonder that obtaining citizenship is seldom easy-unless you have unusual means. For millionaires and billionaires like Peter Thiel and Jho Low, a new passport is just a question of price.More than a dozen countries, many of them small islands in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and South Pacific, sell citizenship to 50,000 people annually. Kristin Surak investigated the industry. Some "investor citizens" parlay their new passport into visa-free travel or use it as a stepping stone to residence in a third country like the United States. Other buyers seek an insurance policy against their home states. Almost none intend to live among their new compatriots, who have a complex relationship with these global elites.A groundbreaking study of a contentious practice that has become popular among the nouveaux riches, The Golden Passport takes readers through the geopolitical hydraulics of a business that thrives on imbalances of power between big, globalized economies and tiny states desperate for investment. In between are the fascinating stories of buyers, brokers, and sellers, all poised to profit.…

Paperback or Softback. Condizione: New. Making Tea, Making Japan: Cultural Nationalism in Practice. Book.

Condizione: New.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The tea ceremony persists as one of the most evocative symbols of Japan. Originally a pastime of elite warriors in premodern society, it was later recast as an emblem of the modern Japanese state, only to be transformed again into its current incarnation, largely the hobby of middle-class housewives. How does the cultural practice of a few come to represent a nation as a whole? Although few non-Japanese scholars have peered behind the walls of a tea room, sociologist Kristin Surak came to know the inner workings of the tea world over the course of ten years of tea training. Here she offers the first comprehensive analysis of the practice that includes new material on its historical changes, a detailed excavation of its institutional organization, and a careful examination of what she terms "nation-work"-the labor that connects the national meanings of a cultural practice and the actual experience and enactment of it. She concludes by placing tea ceremony in comparative perspective, drawing on other expressions of nation-work, such as gymnastics and music, in Europe and Asia. Taking readers on a rare journey into the elusive world of tea ceremony, Surak offers an insightful account of the fundamental processes of modernity-the work of making nations.…
