A CENTURY OF MUSIC UNDER THE STARS

A History of the Mann Center for the Performing Arts and Robin Hood Dell JACK McCARTHY

With forewords by Catherine M. Cahill, Christopher L. Bruner, and Yannick Nézet-Séguin

Behind-the-scenes stories from Philadelphia’s world-renowned outdoor concert venues Everyone has a memorable story about attending a performance at the Mann Center for the Performing Arts or the Robin Hood Dell—“the Mann” and “the Dell” to their many patrons. Lavishly illustrated with more than 200 images, meticulously researched, and engagingly written by historian Jack McCarthy, A Century of Music Under the Stars reveals the fascinating inside story of Philadelphia’s premier outdoor concert venues on the eve of the Mann’s 50th Anniversary.

The Dell, which opened in 1930, and the Mann, which opened in 1976, were initially built as summer homes for The Philadelphia Orchestra. As McCarthy fondly recounts, the Mann Center evolved to host the world’s top artists across many musical genres. Contemporary audiences have gathered on the Great Lawn for concerts by performers including James Taylor, The Roots, Phish, Diana Ross, John Legend, and others.

The venues, however, are more than just the music; they are about the beautiful natural setting, communal atmosphere, and spectacular view of the Philadelphia skyline. A Century of Music Under the Stars is a revealing and celebratory look back at beloved Philadelphia cultural icons. This informative and illuminating history will provide happy memories for generations of music lovers.

JACK McCARTHY is a longtime Philadelphia archivist and historian who has held leadership positions at several area historical institutions and directed a number of major archives and public history projects. He has written extensively on the history of Philadelphia music, industry, and Northeast Philadelphia. He is the author of In the Cradle of Industry and Liberty: A History of Manufacturing in Philadelphia, numerous articles for the Encyclopedia of Greater Philadelphia, and was a major contributor to The Philadelphia Music Book: Sounds of a City. He has served as consulting archivist and historian for the Philadelphia Orchestra, Mann Center for the Performing Arts, and the Philadelphia Jazz Legacy Project.

PARENT TRIP

Unexpected Roads to Form a Family ANNDEE HOCHMAN

Frank, hilarious, harrowing, and real stories of exuberantly diverse families and how they came to be Families are created through conception, adoption, fostering, and family-blending. As a Philadelphia Inquirer columnist for nearly a decade, Anndee Hochman interviewed hundreds of parents—older and younger, single and coupled, straight and queer—about the paths they forged and the obstacles they faced on the road to form a family. Parent Trip is Hochman’s collection of these poignant, wry, and complicated stories.

Hochman recounts the fraught emotions of couples struggling with infertility, the joy of a single gay man becoming a father in his forties, and the anxiety of people waiting for the adoption worker to call with good news.

Parent Trip tells of sperm donors and gestational surrogates, midwives and miscarriages; it chronicles how children prompt parents to recalibrate their lives.

In personal essays that weave throughout the profiles, Hochman connects her interviewees’ lives to the love, heartbreak, and uncertainty in her own path to parenthood.

Through myriad mundane and extraordinary moments, Parent Trip not only chronicles the magic and labor of childrearing, it also celebrates the infinite ways real families come to be.

ANNDEE HOCHMAN is a freelance writer, educator and storyteller. She is the author of Anatomies: A Novella and Stories and Everyday Acts & Small Subversions: Women Reinventing Family, Community and Home. For nine years, she wrote the weekly "Parent Trip" column in the Philadelphia Inquirer. Her articles, essays and commentaries have appeared in WebMD; Poets & Writers; O, the Oprah Magazine; Redbook; Philadelphia magazine; Broad Street Review and other publications.

CHASING CHANGE IN CAMDEN Police Reform in One of America's Most Violent Cities JOHN SHJARBACK

An in-depth examination of the Camden County Police Department’s reform efforts

AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER

In the 1990s and 2000s, Camden, NJ, across the river from Philadelphia, was perennially designated one of America’s most dangerous cities. The functionally bankrupt city dissolved the Camden Police Department (CPD) and created the Camden County Police Department (CCPD) in 2013, refocusing its priorities and officer performance standards to engage with the community and build trust. The change was significant, with notable drops in violent crime and murder. However, concerns about the use of force and other aggressive practices continued.

In Chasing Change in Camden, John Shjarback investigates how Camden’s police department re-formed and questions whether it can serve as a model for other cities.

He analyzes successful policies—from innovative police training to advancements in technology—and evidencebased policing strategies.

Shjarback explains how the changes were implemented and then adjusted in response to community backlash.

Chasing Change in Camden concludes with a discussion of threats to the reform and accountability efforts in both the CCPD and American policing more broadly. Ultimately, Camden’s case study offers valuable lessons for cities seeking effective police reform.

SALEM’S CENTURIES

New Perspectives on the History of an Old American City

EDITED BY DONNA A. SEGER AND BRAD AUSTIN Four centuries of history inspired by the storied city’s quadricentennial in 2026 Salem, MA is best known today for its infamous witch trials in 1692, yet there is much more to this small city. An important trading center since its founding in 1626, Salem was also the scene of dynamic social and material changes in the twentieth century. Salem’s Centuries develops a more inclusive and comprehensive historical framework and expands upon the city’s signature eras of witch trials and maritime ascendancy.

In advance of the city’s quadricentennial, the editors and contributors highlight the depth and diversity of Salem’s history, including stories of indigenous peoples, early settlers, African Americans, and immigrants, spanning from the American and industrial revolutions to World War II and the present. Chronologically arranged by century, chapters examine how Salem’s history has been lost or distorted in its public presentations over time.

Salem’s Centuries is a fresh look at an old American city. And yes, it includes the accused witches.

How have public history projects celebrated Arab American life and culture and countered anti-Arab bias and discrimination? The editor and contributors to Arab American Public History show how this vibrant community creates their own narratives through writing, blogging, curating, collaborating, and broadcasting. They also consider how the larger social and political contexts affect their work and offer self-reflection.

Arab American Public History is an invitation to engage more deeply with Arab American communities. Chapters examine Arab Americans’ origins, ethnic identities, and efforts to belong in America through case studies of the community’s food cultures, genealogy research, cultural production, and neighborhood enclaves.

The first formal study of Arab American public history, this exciting volume charts various ways Arab Americans have interpreted their past as a source of defiant humanity, cultural enfranchisement, social solidarity, and political power.

DISNEYLAND POLITICS How a Medium-Size City and Corporate Giant Coexist

PETER F. BURNS, MATTHEW O. THOMAS, AND MAX R. BIEGANSKI Explores the long-term history and power dynamics between an economic giant— Disneyland—and its home city of Anaheim When Walt Disney decided to build Disneyland in Anaheim, CA in the 1950s, the move presented a puzzle for Anaheim’s government: How would the city balance the interests of private investors against those of the citizenry when the two came into conflict?

Disneyland Politics is a cogent examination of this urban power struggle, which has been playing out for 70 years.

The authors show how the city was initially bound to the Disneyland Imperative, which placed the theme park above everything else in the city, including other economic development projects. However, starting in the 1990s, citizens pushed back against the corporation and its supporters, wanting a more balanced public policy agenda and ultimately loosening the stranglehold Disneyland had over the city’s political order.

Recounting the history of Disney’s power in action and the tension between democratic governance and reliance on private investment, Disneyland Politics illustrates how those who pursue alternative agendas attempt to get their way, and how the fight for a more balanced public policy agenda has changed local power dynamics to be less favorable to Disneyland over time.

PETER F. BURNS is Professor of Political Science at Soka University of America, author of Electoral Politics Is Not Enough: Racial and Ethnic Minorities and Urban Politics, and coauthor of Reforming New Orleans: The Contentious Politics of Change in the Big Easy.

Philadelphia’s urban renewal efforts in the 1950s, which re-envisioned the city as a residential enclave, were an early example of gentrification. In West Philadelphia in the 1960s, a coalition of universities and hospitals went further, initiating K–12 public school improvements meant to attract an affluent and whiter population. As Edward Epstein details in Race, Real Estate, and Education, these interventions discounted the negative impact they could have on neighborhood residents.

Epstein outlines the citywide context for the plan to create “University City” in West Philadelphia. He recounts the attempts to correct the segregation, overcrowding, and authoritarian management that plagued Philadelphia’s public schools. As the West Philadelphia Corporation, the proxy for the universities and hospitals, initiated gentrification efforts, the local community resisted and protested, causing the project to fail. The effort was revived with spectacular success, however, with the launch of the well-funded Penn Alexander School in 2001.

Race, Real Estate, and Education shows how the pursuit of urbanist ideals sometimes deepens neighborhood injustice. Epstein’s exploration of whether Philadelphia’s overall approach was beneficial or misguided presents a cautionary tale.

FORTUNATE PEOPLE IN A FORTUNATE LAND At Home in Santa Monica’s Rent-Controlled Housing LAUREN E. M. EVERETT

An in-depth look—from the tenants’ perspective— at the most controversial housing policy in America Rent control and other tenant protections have profound and positive impacts on individuals’ and communities’ lives. Lauren Everett’s Fortunate People in a Fortunate Land shows how rent control impacts the lives of the renters themselves. Everett interviews residents about their experiences in low- and middle-income households in rentcontrolled private market housing in Santa Monica, CA, a city where Everett was born and raised but can no longer afford to live.

Everett seeks to understand the extent to which individuals feel at home or not at home and what factors contribute to those experiences. She also explores the nexus of Santa Monica’s tenant protection policies, infrastructure, and resources and the extent to which they inform stability—both perceived and actual—and life decisions.

The first scholarly book to take a tenant-centered approach to examining the benefits and problems of rent control, Fortunate People in a Fortunate Land examines the residential experience in this specific local context and explains how it relates to policy and other externalities in cities where homeownership is not financially viable for most renters.

Renovation, an urban renewal plan in Moscow that was announced in the spring of 2017, proposed to demolish thousands of socialist-era apartment buildings. In a country where it is rare under an authoritarian government, residents supported or opposed the redevelopment by mobilizing and organizing into local alliances. They were often shocked by their neighbors who were excited about the new housing or those suspicious of being displaced.

Private Life, Public Action traces how residents impacted by the relocation plan became activists despite having little to no experience organizing or even forming political affiliations and opinions. Author Anna Zhelnina details the ways in which neighbors engaged in collective action, as well as the individual and structural changes these interactions caused.

Zhelnina develops the concept of “housing strategies” to explain how residents’ debates with their neighbors about housing were shaped by their private life strategies.

She applies her findings about housing in Moscow to ongoing questions about political mobilization, demonstrating how public engagement is shaped by historical and social contexts.

Examining the intersection of housing, politics, and citizenship in contemporary Russia, Private Life, Public Action offers a new way to look at urban change.

REASSEMBLING THE UAW

Insurgency, Contention, and the Struggle for Unionism in the American South ABE WALKER

How the United Auto Workers achieved a landmark victory at Volkswagen's Chattanooga Assembly Plant When Volkswagen’s Chattanooga Assembly Plant opened in 2012, the United Auto Workers were excited by the golden opportunity to organize in the anti-union South, where their efforts had been routinely thwarted. However, it took ten years and several attempts before the UAW was successful in unionizing the plant. Reassembling the UAW explains why.

Abe Walker chronicles the organizing campaign from its origin in 2014 to the union’s breakthrough victory in 2024, illustrating what went wrong—and what went right—along the way. Walker provides a systematic analysis of the strategic challenges and tactical shifts, showing the patterns that persisted across three election cycles while highlighting their differences, from global-level alliances to local labor issues.

Reassembling the UAW also demonstrates how rebel rank-and-file workers ousted the old-guard leadership and transformed the UAW into a militant union to achieve results. Ultimately, Walker offers valuable lessons for organizational strategy, the power of collective action, and the future of the labor movement.

Migration journeys are not unidirectional. In Counterstreams in Migration, Hewan Girma reveals a more complex circuit of migration, concentrating on the motivations behind non-migration, return migration, and repeat migration to show how these flows mutually affect and influence the migrant as well as the family members who remain at home.

Weaving together nearly 100 stories of non-migrants, returnees, and repeat migrants from Ethiopia, Girma advances a theory of migra-emotions, emotions specific to migration, to understand decisions and experiences, such as the imaginary of home and the lived reality of alienation, disaffection abroad, and feelings of duty to one’s homeland.

Looking beyond the meanings of migration or processes of integration, Girma explores the emotional subtext of migration aspirations. In doing so, Counterstreams of Migration complicates conventional understandings of migration and provides a more complete picture of migrant stories.

HEWAN GIRMA is Associate Professor of African American and African Diaspora Studies at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. She cofounded and codirects the Ethiopian, East African and Indian Ocean Research Network.

RECKONING WITH THE WORLD

South Korean Television and the Latin American Imaginary BENJAMIN M. HAN

How Korean television formulates and exploits a monolithic imaginary of Latin America through the lens of East Asian modernity For many Koreans, Latin America is foreign and unfamiliar, but popular television shows have generated considerable interest in this region of the Global South. In Reckoning with the World, Benjamin Han explores this phenomenon by providing a close reading of Korean TV programs that take place, are shot in, or depict Latin America. These dramas, reality shows, and travel documentaries present South Koreans with an understanding of themselves by projecting an illusion of difference that underscores themes of identity, race, and modernity.

Historical dramas like The Land of Humans, about Korean migrants in Mexico, consider diasporic identity and nationalism, while the fantasy series Secret Garden explores issues of modernity. In addition, the TV drama Encounter and the entertainment show Traveler contrast the cultures of global Korea with Cuba. As these programs create appealing storytelling, characters, and aesthetics, they inspire and resonate with audiences and fans across the globe. However, Korean television’s imaginary of Latin America is not about its investment in fostering greater interculturality with Latin American nations and their cultures but instead projects a façade of progressive racial and cultural politics shaping Korea’s reckoning with the world.

BENJAMIN M. HAN is Associate Professor in the Department of Entertainment and Media Studies at the University of Georgia.

He is the author of Beyond the Black and White TV: Asian and Latin American Spectacle in Cold War America and the coeditor of Korean Pop Culture beyond Asia: Race and Reception.

In Disabling Relations, Sona Kazemi probes this and other questions that consider how processes and relations of patriarchy, imperialism, and religious fundamentalism, as well as class and ideology, rework the dialectics of disability in transnational contexts.

Kazemi focuses on the disabled dissidents who were incarcerated and tortured by the Islamic regime in the aftermath of the 1979 revolution in Iran, the disabled veterans and civilians wounded during and after the Iran– Iraq War, the disabled survivors of state-sanctioned punitive limb amputation, and the disabled women survivors of acid attacks as a form of gender-based violence. Disabling Relations explains how disabled bodyminds are produced and sustained through the violence of patriarchal, capitalist-imperialist, nationalist, and theocratic social relations. Kazemi uses the theoretical concept of “wounding” as a historical process of becoming and remaining disabled mediated by unequal power relations and “disability consciousness” to show how these survivors come to terms with their disability.

Thinking about critical disability theory in a new way, Kazemi investigates how disability is produced transnationally and the impact that this new theorization can make globally.

SONA KAZEMI is Assistant Professor of Race, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.

She is the Society for Disability Studies’ 2018 recipient of the honorable mention for the Irving K. Zola Award for Emerging Scholars in Disability Studies, and Associate Editor of Review of Disability Studies: An International Journal.

THE DOOR OF NO RETURN Being-As-Black

MICHAEL E. SAWYER Presents an alternative system of Black Radical Thought In The Door of No Return, Michael E. Sawyer presents a bold work of speculative theory and philosophy that explores how Black people bring the future into being—and what existence in that future looks like. He considers what people of African descent face and the proper response to the situation. He introduces the idea of Being-As-Black as a response and questions the overarching ethos that will be the guide to a beneficial resolution.

Using critical theory and philosophy, Sawyer decouples Black identity and Black philosophy from White and Western frames by building on Toni Morrison’s ideas of Black Thought and encouraging an understanding of Black Self-Consciousness and Black Self-Identity on Black terms.

The Door of No Return uses music, literature, visual art, and a variety of physical disciplines to imagine a world that differs from one that confounds the positive formation of Black Self-Consciousness under the coercive regime of white supremacy and Anti-Black racism.

MICHAEL E. SAWYER is Professor with Tenure of African American Literature & Culture, and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of English at the University of Pittsburgh.

He is the author of Black Minded: The Political Philosophy of Malcolm X, An Africana Philosophy of Temporality: Homo Liminalis, and Sir Lewis.

COLLECTIVE EFFERVESCENCE EDITED BY SÉBASTIEN TUTENGES AND PHILIP SMITH

Explores how the theory of collective effervescence can be applied in surprising ways to the study of charisma, crowds, music, religion, social media, and much more

Sociologist Émile Durkheim’s theory of collective effervescence describes an overwhelming sense of excitement, empowerment, and unity. While originally tailored to examine religious phenomena, the theory has proven remarkably powerful in explaining secular experiences, from raves and military marches to sporting events and protest crowds.

The editors and contributors to Collective Effervescence make a deep dive into new waters.

They investigate solo experiences, virtual collectivities, low-intensity effervescence, and negative outcomes.

Through studies of drug ceremonies, occupational subcultures, bookshops, online activities, and much more, each chapter discovers and theorizes something previously unknown. Collective Effervescence finds new potentials in a familiar theoretical resource.

CONTRIBUTORS: Sarah H. Awad, Pierre Bouchat, Randall Collins, Silvia da Costa, Scott Draper, Lisa Flower, Romulo Lelis, Heather Margrsion, Sharon Mascall-Dare, Ashley Mears, Margit Anne Petersen, José J. Pizarro, Bernard Rimé, Dario Páez, David Sausdal, Daniel Smith, Femke Vandenberg, Brady Wagoner, David Wästerfors, Brad West, and the editors SÉBASTIEN TUTENGES is Professor at Aarhus University and editor-in-chief of The Nordic Journal of Criminology. He is the author of Intoxication: An Ethnography of Effervescent Revelry.

PHILIP SMITH is Professor and Director of the Yale Center for Cultural Sociology. He is the coeditor of The Cambridge Companion to Durkheim and the author of Durkheim and After: The Durkheimian Tradition, 1893–2020.

THE TURKISHNESS CONTRACT BARIŞ ÜNLÜ

Now available in English—a historical and sociological analysis of Turkishness as a set of certain schemas for seeing, thinking, feeling, and acting, and certain privileges, real or potential The Turkishness Contract places Critical Race Theory in conversation with literature on Turkey and nation-state making via a historical study enriched by in-depth interviews. In this new English-language edition, Barış Ünlü makes a number of comprehensive changes to his widely read and much discussed 2018 Turkish book, including a new preface and a new sweeping and theoretical introduction. Ünlü uses Critical Race Theory to present a historical– sociological model to examine not only the historical constitution and contemporary functioning of the Turkish nation-state, but also the affective and bodily modalities of being Turkish. He also develops a framework for rethinking the complex relations between the socio-genesis of the Turkish nation and state and the psycho-genesis of the Turkish people, their cognitive habits and emotional orientations, and the structural privileges and unconsciousness strategies of Turkishness.

The Turkishness Contract addresses broader theoretical concerns including histories of colonialism, ethnic/racial social contracts, privilege, Armenian genocide and the Kurdish question, as well as the unraveling of Turkey’s social contract at a moment of contemporary right-wing authoritarianism.
