In these interviews, Ezzatyar opens up very interesting dimensions for the reader with the questions he raises. The third point is that this book in spite of a lot of academic information, is very suitable for non-academic readers too, and even at the beginning of the book, all the words that may be unfamiliar to the reader are explained in the glossary section, and the interviews that given an attractive dimension to the book, making it attractive for non-academic readers too and even regarding the pictures and graphs of the book, it should be said that the few pictures and diagrams given in the book are very appropriate and help a lot to the reader’s visual understanding and provide statistical information about migration. The number of graphs is not so large as to confuse the reader by providing too much statistical information but is only used in parts that convey the necessary statistical information more easily. Since a large population of Jews in Israel is made up of Iranian Jews, and however, due to the wide-ranging political problems that the two governments of Iran and Israel have with each other, the identity crisis among this immigrant group can be studied and discussed, which the writer shortly mentions in some parts of the book, but it creates questions for further studies in the minds of the readers. In fact, this book can be a stepping stone to extensive sociological, political, ideological, and religious research on the Iranian diaspora in Israel. It can be said that this book for all those who are interested in studying migrations, diasporas, the Middle East, and social and political subjects, can be recognized as a valuable resource.","PeriodicalId":47662,"journal":{"name":"International Sociology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43413507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A dialogue between internationalization and indigenization leads the author to determine three interrelated ecological systems in the development of Tsinghua’s sociology: departmental, institutional, and national. While these systems inform Tsinghua’s ‘national’ mission and endeavor, they are not dislodged from global trends and remain responsive to global factors. Therefore, Tsinghua’s effort to achieve a ‘Sociology with Chinese Characteristics’ is oppressed by challenges chief of which is that the university, the sociology department and its scholars are all forces for internationalization. Xie describes such situation as ‘double shackles’ in which scholars have encountered institutional and cultural dilemmas in their struggles to balance global and national/local demands while constructing their discipline and international influence. Previous research has focused upon internationalization at the university level without going further to investigate a particular academic discipline, which makes this book significant. The details provided are too extensive to exhaustively embrace in this review. Immense effort, accurate analysis and substantial referencing makes this book an outstanding read overall.","PeriodicalId":47662,"journal":{"name":"International Sociology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41556215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yang explicates that the book attempts ‘to make a holistic exploration of the current state of development of the social sciences in China’s premier universities by taking Tsinghua University’s sociology as a case’ (viii). Yang’s ‘Forward’ is accurately reflected in the author’s comprehensive analysis; including presenting theoretical considerations on the development of social sciences in a global context of asymmetrical academic relations across knowledge systems. The book registers the historical trajectory of the disciplinary evolution of China’s social sciences under the influence of internationalization, and scrutinizes the complex academic relations between various forces during different historical periods (Forward). Tsinghua University is selected as a case study for various reasons. Justifying that ‘the Chinese higher education system is marked by a hierarchical structure that positions institutions “according to their function and goals”’ (p. 15). It is acknowledged that Tsinghua and Tsinghua’s Sociology fits this criterion. Besides, Tsinghua occupies a close historical and contemporary nexus with Western universities, which allows Tsinghua to cultivate research and talent ‘above those of the average Chinese university’ (p. 16). Tsinghua also is a unique case due to its distinct disciplinary development trajectory in the social sciences throughout the past century. Tsinghua’s sociology, the author argues, was ranked fourth in China (CDGDC, 2017). Additionally, from 2015 to 2018 it was consistently among the top 51–100 in the world, based on QS World University Rankings by Subject, despite having only 14 faculty members. 1138462 ISS0010.1177/02685809221138462International SociologyBook review research-article2022","PeriodicalId":47662,"journal":{"name":"International Sociology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44081697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The European GI model is in ascendance thanks to a campaign of institutional entrepreneurship that engendered a powerful macro-organization leading the rapid diffusion of sui generis GI. Through its success in recruiting the intellectual property regimes of most East Asian countries into the European orbit of trade and cultural production, it has become hegemonic, with the potential for ‘crowding out’ useful pre-existing mechanisms of heritage food protection or displacing exchange in agri-food specialties still embedded in the moral economy. Although this new global standard is shaped by the process of integration into new milieux, this paper finds that latent post-colonial tendencies in the European GI model and its poor capacity at self-reflection in the face of inefficiency compromises its potentially unifying role in the heritage food world order.","PeriodicalId":47662,"journal":{"name":"International Sociology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43097836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, for easy communication and control they tend to reduce the multifaceted societal demands for animal welfare to freedom of movement, that is, to free stalls with or without access to pasture. Taking a farmers perspective, this contribution examines the situation in Austria, where structure and practices of dairy farming differ greatly between more favourable, arable, and mountainous regions. The theoretical concept of farming styles uncovers fundamental positions grounded in different understandings of how farming practices are supposed to be organized. Private standards privilege rationalized, large-scale dairy farms in advantaged regions over family-owned traditional farms in mountain areas. This may have unintended negative consequences on farming structure, land use and cultural landscape.","PeriodicalId":47662,"journal":{"name":"International Sociology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43858095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
