        Muppets in Moskau

        Die völlig verrückte Geschichte, wie die Sesamstraße nach Russland kam

        by Natasha Lance Rogoff

        Kurz nach dem Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion erwartet Natasha Lance Rogoff die Aufgabe ihres Lebens: Sie soll die ur-amerikanische Sesamstraße für das russische Fernsehen adaptieren. Dass es keine Produktion wie jede andere werden wird, zeigt sich bereits im Vorfeld: Der erste Investor entgeht nur knapp einem Bombenattentat, drei Fernsehmanager werden ermordet, und als endlich ein Produktionsbüro bezogen werden kann, wird es kurz darauf vom Militär besetzt. Schließlich sind da noch die Differenzen im russisch-amerikanischen Team: Filme, in denen Männer den Abwasch machen und Patchwork-Familien fröhliche Buchstabenlieder singen, kommen bei den russischen Kreativen nicht gut an – Schwermut und klassische Musik sollen zum Einsatz kommen. Es wird beherzt gestritten, und nur langsam nähern sich beide Seiten an. Am Ende entstehen aber Kulissen und Handpuppen, Filme und Musik, die amerikanische Vorgaben und russische Tradition verbinden. Die Sendung wird ein Riesenerfolg – bis sie von Putin-treuen Fernsehmanagern abgesetzt wird. Mehr als zehn Jahre lang erreichte die russische Ausgabe der Sesamstraße Millionen von Familien. Die Vision der Sendung: eine neue Realität für die Kinder und Enkelkinder des Landes zu entwerfen – zunächst auf dem Fernsehbildschirm und dann im wirklichen Leben. Natasha Lance Rogoff, die amerikanische Produzentin der Sendung, gibt einen Einblick hinter die Kulissen und erzählt eine turbulente Geschichte von Bombenanschlägen, dem Clash der Kulturen und der zarten Hoffnung, dass es so etwas wie Annäherung zwischen zwei Welten geben kann.

        Divided Isles

        Solomon Islands and the China Switch

        by Edward Acton Cavanough

        In 2019, Solomon Islands made international headlines when the country severed its decades-old alliance with Taiwan in exchange for a partnership with Beijing. The decision prompted international condemnation and terrified Australian security experts, who feared Australia's historical Pacific advantage would come unstuck. This development is often framed as another example of China's inevitable capture of the region - but this misrepresents how and why the decision was made, and how Solomon Islanders have skilfully leveraged global angst over China to achieve extraordinary gains. Despite Solomon Islands' importance to Australia, local readers know little about the country, a fragile island-nation stretching over a thousand islands and speaking seventy indigenous languages. In Divided Isles, Edward Cavanough explains how the switch played out on the ground and its extraordinary potential consequences. He speaks with the dissidents and politicians who shape Solomon Islands' politics, and to the ordinary people whose lives have been upended by a decision that has changed the country - and the region - forever.

        Cultural Region

        North east England 1945–2000

        by Natasha Vall

        This book is the first historical assessment of English regional cultural policy. With its dialect and striking modern icons such as the Angel of the North, the north east has been described as England's most distinctive region. This study reveals the impact of the new cultural institutions that emerged after 1945 upon a region with deeply rooted vernacular traditions. The creation of the regional arts board and the development of regional broadcasting as well as the national efforts to manage the northern economic problems presented challenges for vernacular culture. In the ensuing battle between provincial and metropolitan values the north east as a modern cultural region took shape. The concluding chapters detail the cultural regeneration of the urban riversides, a much vaunted example of successful culture-led regeneration. This volume is essential for anyone with an interest in the formation of cultural identities, the development of regional government arts policies, urban regeneration and cultural and social history. ;

        Scottishness and Irishness in New Zealand since 1840

        by Angela McCarthy, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        This book examines the distinctive aspects that insiders and outsiders perceived as characteristic of Irish and Scottish ethnic identities in New Zealand. When, how, and why did Irish and Scots identify themselves and others in ethnic terms? What characteristics did the Irish and the Scots attribute to themselves and what traits did others assign to them? Did these traits change over time and if so how? Contemporary interest surrounding issues of ethnic identities is vibrant. In countries such as New Zealand, descendants of European settlers are seeking their ethnic origins, spurred on in part by factors such as an ongoing interest in indigenous genealogies, the burgeoning appeal of family history societies, and the booming financial benefits of marketing ethnicities abroad. This fascinating book will appeal to scholars and students of the history of empire and the construction of identity in settler communities, as well as those interested in the history of New Zealand.

        Chinese religion in contemporary Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan

        The cult of the Two Grand Elders

        by Fabian Graham

        In Singapore and Malaysia, the inversion of Chinese Underworld traditions has meant that Underworld demons are now amongst the most commonly venerated deities in statue form, channelled through their spirit mediums, tang-ki. The Chinese Underworld and its sub-hells are populated by a bureaucracy drawn from the Buddhist, Taoist and vernacular pantheons. Under the watchful eye of Hell's 'enforcers', the lower echelons of demon soldiers impose post-mortal punishments on the souls of the recently deceased for moral transgressions committed during their prior incarnations. Chinese religion in contemporary Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan offers an ethnography of contemporary Chinese Underworld traditions, where night-time cemetery rituals assist the souls of the dead, exorcised spirits are imprisoned in Guinness bottles, and malicious foetus ghosts are enlisted to strengthen a temple's spirit army. Understanding the religious divergences between Singapore and Malaysia (and their counterparts in Taiwan) through an analysis of socio-political and historical events, Fabian Graham challenges common assumptions about the nature and scope of Chinese vernacular religious beliefs and practices. Graham's innovative approach to alterity allows the reader to listen to first-person dialogues between the author and channelled Underworld deities. Through its alternative methodological and narrative stance, the book intervenes in debates on the interrelation between sociocultural and spiritual worlds, and promotes the destigmatisation of spirit possession and discarnate phenomena in the future study of mystical and religious traditions.
