Zusammenfassung: | "In Contentious Rituals, Jonathan Blake focuses on Protestant parades in Northern Ireland to explain how and why men and women of various backgrounds choose to take part in them. Blake draws on interviews and randomized surveys with participants and non-participants and ethongraphic fieldwork at parades and related events across nine Belfast neighborhoods. He finds that partcipants are more interested in the process-oriented benefits intrinsic to the performance of the parades rather than expression of sectartian attitudes or any material incentive. They parade to express collective identity, to uphold tradition, and for the simple of pleasure of partcipiating. In fact, participants insist that their parades have nothing to do with politics at all, despite the fact that parades have sparked ethnic violence and virtually all observers consider them deeply political. Blake suggests this 'paradox of anti-politcs' helps explain the intractable nature of parading; seeing their actions as above politics allows participants to ignore or downplay the consequences"... |

JONATHAN

BLAKE
FOCUSES
ON ONE SUCH
CONTROVERSIAL TRADITION: PROTESTANT
PARADES IN THE STREETS OF NORTHERN
IRELAND.
MARCHERS SAY THEY ARE
CELEBRATING THEIR CULTURE AND
COMMEMORATING
THEIR HISTORY, AS
THEY HAVE
DONE
FOR TWO CENTURIES.
CATHOLICS SEE THE PARADES AS CARNIVALS
OF
BIGOTRY
AND STRIDENT ASSERTIONS OF
POWER.
THE RESULT IS HEIGHTENED INTER-
COMMUNAL FRICTION AND OCCASIONAL
VIOLENCE. DRAWING ON
MORE
THAN
EIGHTY INTERVIEWS, AN ORIGINAL SURVEY,
AND ETHNOGRAPHIC OBSERVATIONS, BLAKE
INVESTIGATES WHY PARTICIPANTS
CHOOSE
TO MARCH IN PARADES THAT ARE KNOWN
TO BE A PRIMARY
SOURCE
OF SECTARIAN
CONFLICT
TODAY.
HIS ANALYSIS REVEALS
THEIR
REASONS FOR ACTING, THE MEANINGS
SUPPLIED TO THEM, AND HOW THEY MAKE
SENSE
OF THE
CONTENTION
THAT SURROUNDS
THEM. ULTIMATELY, HE DISCOVERS, MANY
PARADERS ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE
POLITICS OF THEIR ACTIONS AT
ALL,
BUT
RATHER
IN THE ALLURE OF THE ACTION ITSELF:
THE SATISFACTIONS OF JOINING
WITH
OTHERS
TO EXPRESS A COLLECTIVE IDENTITY AND
CARRY
ON A CHERISHED TRADITION.
AN
INSIGHTFUL EXPLORATION OF THE
CHARACTERISTICS
AND DYNAMICS OF
NATIONALISM
IN ACTION,
CONTENTIOUS
RITUALS
OFFERS AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH
TO THE CONTESTED POLITICS OF CULTURE
IN
DIVIDED SOCIETIES AND A NEW
EXPLANATION
FOR AN OLD SOURCE OF
CONFLICT IN NORTHERN
IRELAND.
