Perihal e-buku ini
Status Rituals Global examines the pervasive role of traditional ceremonies in reinforcing social hierarchies across various cultures and historical periods. It argues that these rituals, far from being mere traditions, actively maintain social order and perpetuate inequality. The book highlights how these carefully orchestrated displays of deference, obedience, and privilege subtly shape individuals' perceptions of their place in the social structure, solidifying acceptance of hierarchical arrangements. Did you know that these rituals often use symbolic language and performance to legitimize social rank? Understanding status rituals is crucial for comprehending the mechanisms through which power is maintained and cultural hegemony is established. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from history, sociology, and anthropology to explore the symbolic language, performance aspects, and economic functions of status rituals. It progresses through three sections: first, defining core concepts; second, presenting case studies of royalty, religious authority, and economic elites; and third, synthesizing findings to discuss the implications for contemporary social movements. By examining less well-known examples and employing a comparative analysis, the book offers fresh perspectives on the ubiquitous phenomenon of status displays. One key insight is that status rituals are active instruments of social control and power consolidation, not just vestiges of the past.
