While these examples focus more on personal agency than institutional sustainability, they underscore new approaches to integrating meaningful ritual into the lives of these liberal Jews. Even as certain contemporary Jews have moved away from traditional structures of learning and authority–synagogues, religious schools, rabbis, and cantors–they have developed and supported innovative means to transmit the music performance of biblical chant used in bar/bat mitzvah celebrations in a way that sustains traditional rituals while empowering their personal style of Jewish expression and identity.","PeriodicalId":438418,"journal":{"name":"Cultural Sustainabilities","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130510617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This chapter documents and describes the Fiesta de la Bulería, an annual event celebrated in the city of Jerez de La Frontera, Spain. The fiesta, an invented tradition that commenced in 1967, is dedicated to the bulería, a highly-cherished song-form in the flamenco repertoire. Drawing on perspectives from semiotics, the chapter addresses the question of how musical sounds signify, essential to an understanding of the construction of meaning, and thus to a deeper comprehension of music and identity. In the course of the discussion, this chapter employs the fiesta as a framework to illustrate how the environment, expressive culture, identity, and economics felicitously come together through adaptive management, thereby fostering the sustainability of an eco-system of culture.","PeriodicalId":438418,"journal":{"name":"Cultural Sustainabilities","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130796956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Extreme weather events, loss of water sources, and desertification have deeply impacted herders and this is expressed in their cultural forms.
