520 "How do objects mediate human relationships, and possess
their own social and political agency? What role does
material culture--such as prestige consumption as well as
commodity aesthetics, biographies, and ownership histories
--play in the production of social and political
identities, differences, and hierarchies? How do
(informal) consumer subcultures of collectors organize and
manage themselves? Drawing on theories from anthropology
and sociology, specifically material culture, consumption,
museum, ethnicity, and post-socialist studies,
Materializing Difference addresses these questions via
analysis of the practices and ideologies connected to
Gabor Roma beakers and roofed tankards made of antique
silver. The consumer subculture organized around these
objects--defined as ethnicized and gendered prestige goods
by the Gabor Roma living in Romania--is a contemporary,
second-hand culture based on patina-oriented consumption.
Materializing Difference reveals the inner dynamics of the
complex relationships and interactions between objects
(silver beakers and roofed tankards) and subjects
(Romanian Roma) and investigates how these relationships
and interactions contribute to the construction,
materialization, and reformulation of social, economic,
and political identities, boundaries, and differences. It
also discusses how, after 1989, the political
transformation in Romania led to the emergence of a new,
post-socialist consumer sensitivity among the Gabor Roma,
and how this sensitivity reshaped the pre-regime-change
patterns, meanings, and value preferences of prestige
consumption."--|cProvided by publisher.
