Hospitality as Intangible Cultural Heritage? Concept and Practice in La Chapelle, Paris

一个多学科的研究人员和作家团体，以建筑、社会学和哲学为基础，居住在拉夏贝尔。从2019年10月开始，该奖学金将在QMUL地理学院工作，由Alison Blunt教授和Anna-Louise Milne博士（ULIP）共同监督。通过在巴黎北部拉夏贝尔地区的持续实地考察，该博士将考虑酒店的行为和实践，并将确定酒店是否以及如何在联合国教科文组织的保护框架下被视为“非物质文化遗产”。好客的做法通常被认为是超越文化差异的，对那些远道而来的人来说，相遇是可以识别的。然而，像所有社会形式一样，好客也受到文化差异的影响。这个博士项目将研究在一个拥有超级语言和文化多样性的地区，在当代移民到欧洲和欧洲内部的中心，款待模式的变化。借鉴代代相传的做法以及信仰和语言群体，它将对文化表现形式和欢迎做法进行比较分析，借鉴共同维持、叙述和住所的情况。这项研究将调查好客是一种常见的、潜在的普遍做法的说法，这种做法跨越了语言的差异，可以为理解非物质文化遗产提供信息。该学生将与PEROU密切合作，为他们面向联合国教科文组织的项目做出贡献，并作为一个嵌入式和实验性研究单位学习他们的方法。

A multidisciplinary group of researchers and writers based in Architecture, Sociology and Philosophy with a residency in La Chapelle. Beginning in October 2019, the studentship will be based in the School of Geography at QMUL, where it will be co-supervised by Prof. Alison Blunt and Dr Anna-Louise Milne (ULIP).Through sustained fieldwork in the northern Paris district of La Chapelle, this PhD will consider the actions and practices of hospitality and will establish whether and how hospitality can be considered to constitute an 'intangible cultural heritage' under the UNESCO framework for safe-guarding. The practice of hospitality is commonly held to transcend cultural differences, being recognizable on encounter for those who come from afar. Yet hospitality, like all social forms, is subject to cultural variance. This doctoral project will study the variations in modes of hospitality as it is enacted in an area of super linguistic and cultural diversity, at the hub of contemporary migration to and within Europe. Drawing on practices that traverse generations as well as faith and language groups, it will develop a comparative analysis of cultural representations and practices of welcome, drawing on situations of shared sustenance, narration and shelter. The research will investigate the claim that hospitality is a common and potentially universalisable practice, which, across its linguistic variation, can inform an understanding of intangible cultural heritage. The student will work closely with the PEROU, contributing to their UNESCO-oriented project and learning from their methodology as an embedded and experimental research unit.
