Quaderns de la Mediterrània
New releases
Quaderns de la Mediterrània forms part of the series of projects of the European Institute of the Mediterranean (IEMed) that contribute to intercultural dialogue. This journal is the result of the will to contribute to research and study on the Mediterranean . Edited by the anthropologist Maria-Àngels Roque, the publication seeks to publicise the reality of the Mediterranean in current events such as migration, shifting values and the sociological, economic and political processes of the peoples that inhabit it and to be a forum of debate on the intercultural future of our societies. In each issue, Quaderns de la Mediterrània dedicates a central dossier to a key subject, as well as including articles on current events, a miscellany on cultural, anthropological and sociological aspects and a book review section.
The objective of the dossier “Women in the Mediterranean Mirror” is that of giving
a voice to the civil society of different ideological tendencies, with the end of achieving
substantial reflections for dialogue and making positive initiatives in the field of gender
equality explicit. Different contributions of women and men, which from the association, academic, political and artistic world openly and creatively help reflection.
Reconocidos expertos como Gilles Kepel, Bichara Khader, Mohamed Arkoun, Mustafá Ceric o Jean Daniel analizan en el dossier del número 6 de Quaderns de la Mediterrània las vías de diálogo que pueden establecerse en el Mediterráneo para luchar contra el reafirmamiento de fronteras y el desconocimiento entre sociedades de una y otra ribera del Mediterráneo.
The dossier of issue number 5 of Quaderns de la Mediterrània is devoted to to the values of contemporary societies with articles by renowned experts including Ronald Inglehart, Manuel Castells, Michel Wieviorka and Mohamed Tozy, among others. This issue is complemented by two new sections, ‘Overview of recent events' and ‘Cultural Overview'.
The dossier of issue number 4 of Quaderns de la Mediterrània is devoted to ‘Comparative Visions of the Mediterranean' This is not, however, a dossier that highlights Mediterranean values, as might have been the case ten years ago. Instead, its contributions focus on the difficulties and challenges ahead. This issue is complemented by two new sections, ‘Overview of recent events' and ‘Cultural Overview'.
All the articles in this issue of Quaderns de la Mediterrània went to press before 11th September 2001. Undoubtedly, the authors would have wanted to include in their writings a strong condemnation of the terrorist attacks in the cities of New York and Washington. Quaderns de la Mediterrània unreservedly expresses this condemnation and rejects any attempt to sow hatred and uncertainty among the peoples and cultures that share the shores of the Mediterranean.
The monograph of this first issue is devoted to the challenges of interculturality in the Mediterranean. European and Mediterranean societies are increasingly multicultural and complex in the development of their relations. Long term conflicts as well as the stereotypes generated by the prevailing situation, although acquiring a determinist scope, do not help to provide an overall vision of Mediterranean interculturality which, in fact, has a certain family character, resulting from encounters and confrontations throughout the history of this inner sea.
