The goal of the Oxford Handbook of Cultural Neuroscience is to highlight the theoretical and methodological advances in the field of cultural neuroscience and the role that these scientific advances can play in understanding how to close the gap in population mental health disparities. Population mental health disparities may arise due to unequal access to healthcare as well as due to the interaction of cultural, biological, and environmental factors that produce inequalities in mental health outcomes. In this edited volume, contributors provide overviews of the current state of knowledge about how and why population health disparities exist as well as the role that a cultural neuroscience approach to the understanding of the mind, brain, and behavior can play in closing the gap in population health disparities. This volume is divided into the following seven parts: Part I. Conceptual and Methodological Issues in Cultural Neuroscience; Part II. Cultural Neuroscience of Emotion; Part III. Cultural Neuroscience of Cognition; Part IV. Cultural Neuroscience of Social Cognition; Part V. Cultural Neuroscience of Intergroup Processes; Part VI. Culture and Genetics; and Part VII. Linking Population Health Disparities and Cultural Neuroscience.

Aufmerksamkeit ist weit mehr als Ressource und Mangelware. Sie artikuliert sich im Zusammenspiel von Räumen, Gegenständen, Körpern und Bewusstsein und ist damit grundlegend für individuelles und gesellschaftliches Handeln und Erleben. Krankheiten, Krisen und Konflikte der Aufmerksamkeit bilden einen zentralen Aspekt, mit dem sich die gegenwärtigen westlichen Gesellschaften selbst beschreiben. Im Gegensatz zu gängigen kulturwissenschaftlichen Interpretationen betrachten die AutorInnen des Bandes die Geschichte der Aufmerksamkeit jedoch nicht als eine Geschichte des Niedergangs. Stattdessen stellen sie Aufmerksamkeit als Grundlage und Produkt individueller und kollektiver Praktiken vor, die vom Spätmittelalter bis in die Gegenwart reichen und die so unterschiedliche Kontexte wie architektonische Gebilde, das Börsengeschehen, die Ratgeberliteratur oder den Raum eines fiktionalen Textes betreffen.

L'étude des arts, des cultures et de leurs médiations recouvre plusieurs disciplines : sociologie, sciences de l'information, histoire, anthropologie, etc. Ces contributions étudient les différents processus de catégorisation qui sont mis en oeuvre pour penser les objets de ces études : typologie des publics, labellisations des oeuvres, classifications des modes dʹexpression artistiques, etc. ©Electre 2016

"This volume focuses on four cultural phenomena in the Roman world of the late Republic - the garden, a garden painting, tapestry, and the domestic caged bird. They accept or reject a categorisation as art in varying degrees, but they show considerable overlaps in the ways in which they impinge on social space. The study looks, therefore, at the borderlines between things that variously might or might not seem to be art forms. It looks at boundaries in another sense too. Boundaries between different social modes and contexts are embodied and represented in the garden and paintings of gardens, reinforced by the domestic use of decorative textile work, and replicated in the bird cage. The boundaries thus thematised map on to broader boundaries in the Roman house, city, and wider world, becoming part of the framework of the citizen's cognitive development and individual and civic identities. Frederick Jones presents a novel analysis that uses the perspective of cognitive development in relation to how elements of domestic and urban visual culture and the broader world map on to each other. His study for the first time understands the domestic caged bird as a cultural object and uniquely brings together four disparate cases under the umbrella of 'art'"--

Rooted in diverse cultures and in distinct regions of the world, Indigenous people have for generations created, maintained, and negotiated clear and explicit relationships with their environments. Despite numerous historical disruptions and steady iterations of imperialism that continue through today, Indigenous communities embody communities of struggle/resistance and intense vitality/creativity. In this work, a fellowship of Indigenous research has emerged, and our collective intent is to share critical narratives that link together Indigenous worldviews, culturally-based notions of ecology, and educational practices in places and times where human relationships with the world that are restorative, transformative, and just are being sought.
