Simone Abram replied to Keith Hart's discussion Was the city a western phenomenon before nation-states took over? in the group Urban Anthropology
"I'm not quite sure where this thread is going, but if I can go back to the question of getting a grasp on the city for a moment... the problem I always have with talk of 'the city' is that I can't really see it as a useful…"

Simone Abram replied to Richard Irvine's discussion Bibliography for the anthropology of contemporary Britain in the group Anthropology of Britain
"Hi Richard This is a really interesting exercise - because it begs so many questions. For example, if this is anthropology of Britain, then you might expect to have a pretty broad 'Celtic' section, including much of the work inspired by…"

Simone Abram commented on Richard Irvine's group Anthropology of Britain
"I think it very cleverly plays into a kind of self-deprecating search for an appealing English nationalism. It's a kind of middle-class version of the George Cross flags that appear in the world cup. It is fabulously written, witty and amusing,…"

Simone Abram commented on Richard Irvine's group Anthropology of Britain
"hello all. Thank you for setting this group up! I have done fieldwork in England, north and south, and Kate Fox's observations seem very partial to me... so the generalisation to English is a problem. It's a fun book, though, great for…"

Simone Abram replied to Keith Hart's discussion Architecture and anthropology in the group Urban Anthropology
"Well, okay, Keith - I wasn't trying to police anthropology, don't you know me better than that?! Just wondering what you meant by describing de Meuron as an anthropologist. Maybe I just wasn't too convinced by what you said about him…"

Simone Abram replied to Keith Hart's discussion Architecture and anthropology in the group Urban Anthropology
"Hello again, Hope you don't mind me butting in, but Eeva and I have talked about another face of architecture - the Gehl and Gemzoe human-focused approach that is very popular across western Europe. For a rather different kind of transformation…"

Simone Abram replied to Keith Hart's discussion Architecture and anthropology in the group Urban Anthropology
"Hi, There are some good studies of the building of the Cardiff Bay waterfront if you're interested. Personally, I'm not such a fan of the whole 'waterfront' thing. I am a bit more sceptical of the fashion/fad mechanism in…"
