Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Food and alcohol indulgence, along with tea‐drinking, gambling, and gossip, are integral to a characteristically Sichuanese ethos of ‘life enjoyment’ (xiangshou shenghuo). Beyond mere pleasure, sensory, ludic, and comic experiences temporarily strip participants of both their formal and subjective qualities.

Partitioned Desires: Female Agency and Interfaith Relationships Around the Partition of India

Considering accusations of kidnapping made by women's families against men belonging to a different religion in instances of interfaith desire, I ...
