    Abstract: A century ago, everyone knew that people were fated by their race, sex, and nationality to be more or less intelligent, nurturing, or warlike. But Columbia University professor Franz Boas looked at the data and decided everyone was wrong. Racial categories, he insisted, were biological fictions. Cultures did not come in neat packages labeled "primitive" or "advanced." What counted as a family, a good meal, or even common sense was a product of history and circumstance, not of nature. In Gods of the Upper Air, a masterful narrative history of radical ideas and passionate lives, Charles King shows how these intuitions led to a fundamental reimagining of human diversity.Boas`s students were some of the century`s most colorful figures and unsung visionaries: Margaret Mead, the outspoken field researcher whose Coming of Age in Samoa is among the most widely read works of social science of all time; Ruth Benedict, the great love of Mead`s life, whose research shaped post-Second World War Japan; Ella Deloria, the Dakota Sioux activist who preserved the traditions of Native Americans on the Great Plains; and Zora Neale Hurston, whose studies under Boas fed directly into her now classic novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God. Together, they mapped civilizations from the American South to the South Pacific and from Caribbean islands to Manhattan`s city streets, and unearthed an essential fact buried by centuries of prejudice: that humanity is an undivided whole. Their revolutionary findings would go on to inspire the fluid conceptions of identity we know today. Rich in drama, conflict, friendship, and love, Gods of the Upper Air is a brilliant and groundbreaking history of American progress and the opening of the modern mind. (Verlagsangaben)

    Abstract: Between the years 1964 and 1974, Ethiopian post-secondary students studying at home, in Europe, and in North America produced a number of journals. In these they explored the relationship between social theory and social change within the project of building a socialist Ethiopia. Ethiopia in Theory examines the literature of this student movement, together with the movement's afterlife in Ethiopian politics and society, in order to ask: what does it mean to write today about the appropriation and indigenisation of Marxist and mainstream social science ideas in an Ethiopian and African context; and, importantly, what does the archive of revolutionary thought in Africa teach us about the practice of critical theory more generally?

    Keywords: Anthropologie, medizinische Heilbehandlung
    Abstract: What can case studies about the lived experiences of cancer contribute to an interest in the concept of structural vulnerability? And can a consideration of structural vulnerability enhance applied anthropological work in cancer prevention and control? To answer these questions the contributors in this volume explore what it means to be structurally vulnerable; how structural vulnerabilities intersect with cancer risk, diagnosis, care seeking, caregiving, clinical-trial participation, and survivorship; and how differing local, national, and global political contexts and histories inform vulnerability. These case studies illustrate how quotidian experiences of structural vulnerability influence and are altered by a cancer diagnosis at various points in the continuum of care. In examining cancer as a set of diseases and biosocial phenomena, the contributors extend structural vulnerability beyond its original conceptualization to encompass spatiality, temporality, and biosocial shifts in both individual and institutional arrangements.

    Abstract: Les femmes contribuent largement à l`économie alimentaire de l`Afrique de l`Ouest, perpétuant une longue tradition de commerce et participant aux échanges frontaliers et au rayonnement régional. Ces activités se heurtent à de nombreux obstacles mais présentent de fortes opportunités, que le rapport souligne par une analyse relationnelle et spatiale inédite des réseaux sociaux. Celle-ci est conduite au niveau de la filière du riz dans la zone du Dendi (Bénin, Niger et Nigéria) et des réseaux de gouvernance régionaux promouvant l`entrepreneuriat féminin. Le rapport confirme l`effet attracteur du Nigéria porté par sa démographie et son urbanisation croissante. Il propose le développement de politiques publiques innovantes fondées sur le renforcement du capital social féminin et des options politiques pour une meilleure intégration des diverses initiatives entreprises par les États, les organisations internationales et non gouvernementales en matière d`autonomisation et de renforcement de la résilience des femmes.

    Keywords: Bildung Bildungspolitik ; Pädagogik ; Rasse ; Anthropologie, soziale
    Abstract: The STIAS research theme on Being Human Today explores the interrelated questions: What does it mean to be human? And: What is the nature of the world in which we aspire to be human?In the context of post-apartheid South Africa race and racism remain key references in both these questions: Why is this so, considering that the biological basis of race thinking has been refuted? Templates of race and racialism remain at the core of state policy in South Africa, periodic gross incidents of racism surface in public, and notions of the existence of races remain central to everyday thinking and discours.This book is the result of the work of a group of leading thinkers and their in-depth conversations at STIAS during the winter of 2015 on the effects of race. Convened by evolutionary anthopologist Nina Jablonski and sociologist Gerhard Maré, the group included Njabulo Ndebele, Chabani Manganyi, Barney Pityana, Crain Soudien, Göran Therborn, Mikael Hjerm, Zimitri Erasmus and George Chaplin. The group reconvened annually through 2017. This is the second in a series of planned publication on their work. (Umschlagtext)

    Abstract: Co-published with the International Labour Organization on the centenary of its founding in 1919, the General Labour History of Africa is a landmark in the study of labour history. It brings, for the first time, an African perspective within a global context to the study of labour and labour relations. The volume analyses key developments in the 20th century, such as the emergence of free wage labour; the transformation in labour relations; the role of capital and employers; labour agency and movements; the growing diversity of formal and informal or precarious labour; the meaning of work; and the impact of gender and age on the workplace. The contributors - eminent historians, anthropologists and social scientists from Africa, Europe and the United States - examine African labour in the context of labour and social issues worldwide: mobility and colonial and postcolonial migration, child and forced labour, security, the growth of entrepreneurial labour, the informal sector and self-employment, and the impact of trade unionism, welfare and state relations. The book discusses key sectors such as mining, agriculture, industry, transport, domestic work, and sport, tourism and entertainment, as well as the international dimension and the history and impact of the International Labour Organization itself. This authoritative and comprehensive work will be an invaluable resource for historians of labour, social relations and African history. In association with the ILO Regional Office for Africa Stefano Bellucci is senior researcher at the International Institute of Social History, Amsterdam, and lecturer in African History and Economy at Leiden University, the Netherlands; Andreas Eckert is Director of the International Research Centre for Work and the Human Life Cycle in Global History and professor of African history at Humboldt University, Berlin, Germany.

This book offers an ethnographic account of growing up in the city's slums, struggling to get by in a rapidly developing and globalizing economy and trying to fulfil one's dreams. At the same time, it reflects on the issue of agency, exploring its negative potential when exercised by young people living under severe structural constraint. It offers an antidote to neoliberal ideas around personal responsibility, and the assumed potential for individuals to break through structures of constraint in any sustained way"--

    Abstract: This research unravels the economic collapse of the Datoga pastoralists of central and northern Tanzania from the 1830s to the beginning of the 21st century. The research builds from the broader literature on continental African pastoralism during the past two centuries. Overall, the literature suggests that African pastoralism is collapsing due to changing political and environmental factors. My dissertation aims to provide a case study adding to the general trends of African pastoralism, while emphasizing the topic of competition as not only physical, but as something that is ethnically negotiated through historical and collective memories. There are two main questions that have guided this project: 1) How is ethnic space defined by the Datoga and their neighbours across different historical times? And 2) what are the origins of the conflicts and violence and how have they been narrated by the state throughout history? Examining archival sources and oral interviews it is clear that the Datoga have struggled through a competitive history of claims on territory against other neighbouring communities. The competitive encounters began with the Maasai entering the Serengeti in the 19th century, and intensified with the introduction of colonialism in Mbulu and Singida in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The fight for control of land and resources resulted in violent clashes with other groups. Often the Datoga were painted as murderers and impediments to development. Policies like the amalgamation measures of the British colonial administration in Mbulu or Ujamaa in post-colonial Tanzania aimed at confronting the "Datoga problem," but were inadequate in neither addressing the Datoga issues of identity, nor providing a solution to their quest for land ownership and control.

    Abstract: How might understandings of environmentalism and the environmental humanities shift by incorporating Islamic perspectives? In this book, Anna M. Gade explores the religious and cultural foundations of Islamic environmentalisms. She blends textual and ethnographic study to offer a comprehensive and interdisciplinary account of the legal, ethical, social, and empirical principles underlying Muslim commitments to the earth. "Muslim Environmentalisms" shows how diverse Muslim communities and schools of thought have addressed ecological questions for the sake of this world and the world to come. Gade draws on a rich spectrum of materials?scripture, jurisprudence, science, art, and social and political engagement?as well as fieldwork in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. The book brings together case studies in disaster management, educational programs, international development, conservation projects, religious ritual and performance, and Islamic law to rethink key theories. Gade shows that the Islamic tradition leads us to see the environment as an ethical idea, moving beyond the established frameworks of both nature and crisis. Muslim Environmentalisms models novel approaches to the study of religion and environment from a humanistic perspective, reinterpreting issues at the intersection of numerous academic disciplines to propose a postcolonial and global understanding of environment in terms of consequential relations.

    Alois Richard Nykl : present-day Mexico (2019)

    Keywords: Mexiko Reisebericht ; Nykl, Alois Richard [Leben und Werk]
    Abstract: Alois Richard Nykl (1885-1958) was a phenomenal Czech linguist, polyglot, journalist, philosopher, amateur archaeologist and tireless globetrotter. Until present, the extraordinary life and legacy of this remarkable scholar has been better known in the scholary community abroad rather than in his homeland. In the former Czechoslovakia after the Communist coup, Nykl, as a citizen of a hostile country, the United States, became a persona non grata and over the decades he fell into almost complete oblivion. Only in recent years, as the processing of a vast personal literary estate Nyle bequeathed to the Náprstek Museum continues, his interesting personality has been coming back to light.The unpublished travelogue "Present-Day Mexico," which, complemented with the author's photographs, served as the initial material for this edition, offers a colorful and multilayered picture of Mexican society in the 1920s as well as Nykl's complex personality. After over 90 years, his analyses of the contemporary situation and estimates of the future development of Mexico provide an opportunity for an interesting comparison with the present state of affairs.

    Traditional leaders in a democracy : resources, respect and resistance (2019)

    Abstract: Post-1994, South Africa's traditional leaders have fought for recognition, and positioned themselves as major players in the South African political landscape. Yet their role in a democracy is contested, with leaders often accused of abusing power, disregarding human rights, expropriating resources and promoting tribalism. Some argue that democracy and traditional leadership are irredeemably opposed and cannot co-exist. Meanwhile, shifts in the political economy of the former bantustans - the introduction of platinum mining in particular - have attracted new interests and conflicts to these areas, with chiefs often designated as custodians of community interests.This edited volume explores how chieftancy is practised, experienced and contested in contemporary South Africa. It includes case studies of how those living under the authority of chiefs, in a modern democracy, negotiate or resist this authority in their respective areas. Chapters in this book are organised around three major sites of contest: leadership, land and law.

    Keywords: Arktis Reisebericht ; Expedition ; Tagebuch ; Feilden, Henry Wemyss
    Abstract: The British Arctic Expedition of 1875-6 was the first major British naval expedition to the high Arctic where science was almost as important as geographical exploration. There were hopes that the expedition might find the hypothetical open polar sea and with it the longed-for Northwest Passage, and it did reach the highest northern latitude to date. The Royal Society compiled instructions for the expedition, and selected two full-time naturalists (an unusual naval concession to science), of whom one, Henry Wemyss Feilden, proved a worthy choice.Feilden was a soldier, who fought in most of the wars in his lifetime, including the American Civil War, on the Confederate side. On board HMS Alert, he kept a daily journal, a record important for its scientific content, but also as a view of the expedition as seen by a soldier, revealing admiration and appreciation for his naval colleagues; he performed whatever tasks were given to him, including the rescue of returning sledge parties stricken by scurvy. He also did a remarkably comprehensive job in mapping the geology of Smith Sound; some of his work, on the Cape Rawson Beds, was the most reliable until the 1950s. He was an all-round naturalist, and a particularly fine geologist and ornithologist. He was not just a collector; he pondered the significance of his findings within the context of the best modern science of his day: in zoology, Charles Darwin on evolution; in botany, Hooker on phytogeography, and in geology, Charles Lyell`s system. He illustrated his journal with his own sketches, and also enclosed the printed programmes of popular entertainments held on the ship, and verses for birthdays and sledging (there was a printing press onboard). The journal gives a vigorous impression of a ship`s company well occupied through the winter, then increasingly active in sledging and geographical discovery in spring, before the scurvy-induced decision to head home in the summer of 1876. After his return, Feilden had dealings with many scientists and their institutions, finding homes for and meaning in his collections.

    Abstract: For Haredi Jews, reproduction is entangled with issues of health, bodily governance and identity. This is an analysis of the ways in which Haredi Jews negotiate healthcare services using theoretical perspectives in political philosophy. It is the first archival and ethnographic study of Haredi Jews in the UK and sits at the intersection of medical anthropology, social history and Jewish studies. It will allow readers to understand how reproductive care issues affect this growing minority population. (Verlagsangaben)

    Abstract: The market places and street corners of Dar es Salaam are home to a thriving informal economy of street vendors selling secondhand clothing and other goods. These street vendors often live a precarious existence, under pressure from state authorities and international markets. In addition to these external pressures, the experiences of such vendors are also shaped by a complex interplay of internal tensions, rivalries and conflicting communal ties. Such internal dynamics are a common part of informal economies around the world, but have largely gone unrecognised and unexamined by academic scholarship.Based on ethnographic fieldwork and extensive interviews with vendors living and working in Dar es Salaam, Malefakis's book offers a nuanced portrait of those trying to carve out a livelihood in a major African city, one in which ties of kinship and ethnicity are often viewed as a barrier, rather than an aid, to success. In the process, Malefakis provides an invaluable new perspective on the way in which co-operation, or lack thereof, functions in an informal economy, as well as insight into the lived experiences of those who depend on such economies.

    Abstract: Klassen sind im gängigen sozialwissenschaftlichen Verständnis familienerfassende und generationenübergreifende Kollektive. In afrikanischen Ländern finden sich jedoch häufig "Mehrklassen"-Familien. Die vorliegende Studie, die auf Feldforschung in Ghana, in Liberia und New York beruht, untersucht die vielfältigen Strategien und Praktiken, mit denen die Mitglieder dreier großer ghanaischer Familienverbände mit sozialer Ungleichheit und Klassendifferenz umgehen. Die lokalen Akteure selbst verstehen Familien als größere, flexible, mehrere Generationen, zahlreiche Mitglieder und unterschiedliche Lebensweisen umfassende verwandtschaftliche Netzwerke.Was bedeutet die Aneignung von Aufstiegschancen durch formale Bildung und entsprechende Berufe einiger weniger Familienmitglieder für diese Verwandtschaftsgruppen? Wie wird Familie neu definiert und Unterstützung ausgehandelt, die über die Kernfamilie hinausgeht? Welche Faktoren erleichtern oder erschweren die transgenerationelle Weitergabe des neuen Mittelklasse-Status? Um diese zentralen Fragen zu beantworten, untersucht die Autorin, wie die Familienmitglieder selbst Familiengeschichte erinnern und damit den Familienzusammenhalt (re)konstruieren. Wie Gesellschaftsgeschichte und Familiengeschichte ineinandergreifen und wie spezifische historische Konjunkturen Aufstiegsmöglichkeiten bieten oder sozialen Abstieg bewirken: Dies zu zeigen, ist ein zentrales Anliegen des Buchs.

    Abstract: In Locating Politics in Ethiopia's Irreecha Ritual Serawit Bekele Debele gives an account of politics and political processes in contemporary Ethiopia as manifested in the annual ritual performance. Mobilizing various sources such as archives, oral accounts, conversations, videos, newspapers, and personal observations, Debele critically analyses political processes and how they are experienced, made sense of and articulated across generational, educational, religious, gender and ethnic differences as well as political persuasions. Moreover, she engages Irreecha in relation to the hugely contested meaning making processes attached to the Thanksgiving ritual which has now become an integral part of Oromo national identity.

    Keywords: Indien Tamil Nadu ; Stadt ; Werbung ; Bild ; Film ; Persönlichkeit ; Alltag ; Kulturanthropologie
    Abstract: In 'Intimate Visualities and the Politics of Fandom in India', Gerritsen explores the circulation of images of a movie star named Rajinikanth. Cities and towns in the south Indian state Tamil Nadu are consistently ornamented with huge billboards, murals and myriad posters featuring political leaders as well as movie stars. A selective part of these images is put up by their fan clubs. Tamil movie fans typically manifest themselves by putting up images of their star in public spaces and by generating a plethora of images in their homes. Gerritsen argues that these images are a crucial part of the everyday affective modes of engagement with family members and film stars but they are also symbolizing the political realm in which fans situate themselves. At the same time, Gerritsen shows how these image productions seem to concur with other visual regimes articulated in government restrictions, world class imaginaries and upper class moralities as presented on India's urban streets

    Abstract: One of the areas of fastest-growing interest in the humanities and social sciences in recent years has been the history of animals. Imperial Creatures fills a gap in that field by looking across species at animals in a urban colonial setting. If imperialism is a series of power relationships, Timothy P. Barnard argues, then it necessarily involves not only the subjugation of human communities, but also of animals. What was the relationship between those two processes in colonial Singapore? How did interactions with animals enable changes in interactions between people?Through a multidisciplinary consideration of fauna, Imperial Creatures weaves together a series of tales to document how animals were cherished, monitored, employed, and slaughtered in a colonial society. All animals, including humans, Barnard shows, have been creatures of imperialism in Singapore. Their stories teach us lessons about the structures that upheld such a society and how it developed over time, lessons of relevance to animal historians, to historians of Singapore, and to urban historians and imperial historians with an interest in environmental themes.

    Abstract: Iran has long been regarded as an international pariah state in some parts of the international community. However, its negative image in many countries disguises its history of tourism and rich cultural and natural heritage. Following the July 2015 nuclear deal and the reduction in sanctions, Iran is focusing on international tourism as a means to generate economic growth in addition to its substantial domestic tourism market. Given the significance of tourism in the Middle East and in international politics, as well as restrictions on international mobility, this volume brings together the first contemporary collection of research on tourism in Iran. Written by experts based both within and outside of Iran, the chapters engage with a number of crucial issues including the importance of religion, the role of women in society, sustaining Iran's cultural heritage, Iran's image and the resistive economy to provide a benchmark assessment of tourism and its potential future in a troubled political environment. The book will undoubtedly be of interest not only to those readers who focus specifically on Iran but also those who seek a wider understanding of Iran's role in the region and how tourism is utilised as part of national and regional economic development policies.

    Abstract: As a young anthropologist, Don Kulick went to the tiny village of Gapun in New Guinea to document the death of the native language, Tayap. He arrived knowing that you can`t study a language without understanding the daily lives of the people who speak it: how they talk to their children, how they argue, how they gossip, how they joke. Over the course of thirty years, he returned again and again to document Tayap before it disappeared entirely, and he found himself inexorably drawn into their world, and implicated in their destiny. Kulick wanted to tell the story of Gapunersone that went beyond the particulars and uses of their languagethat took full stock of their vanishing culture. This book takes us inside the village as he came to know it, revealing what it is like to live in a difficult-to-get-to village of two hundred people, carved out like a cleft in the middle of a tropical rainforest. But A Death in the Rainforest is also an illuminating look at the impact of white society on the farthest reaches of the globeand the story of why this anthropologist realized finally that he had to give up his study of this language and this village.An engaging, deeply perceptive, and brilliant interrogation of what it means to study a culture, A Death in the Rainforest takes readers into a world that endures in the face of massive changes, one that is on the verge of disappearing forever.

    Abstract: "By the time the "Scramble for Africa" among European colonial powers began in the late nineteenth century, Africa had already been globally connected for centuries. Its gold had fueled the economies of Europe and the Islamic world for nearly a millennium, and the sophisticated kingdoms spanning its west coast had traded with Europeans since the fifteenth century. Until at least 1650, this was a trade of equals, using a variety of currenciesmost importantly, cowrie shells imported from the Maldives and nzimbu shells imported from Brazil. But, as the slave trade grew, African kingdoms began to lose prominence in the growing global economy. We have been living with the effects of this shift ever since. " --- provided by the publisher

    Abstract: The Pitt-Rivers Omnibus brings together the definitive essays and lectures of the influential social anthropologist Julian A. Pitt-Rivers, a corpus of work that has, until now, remained scattered, untranslated, and unedited. Illuminating the themes and topics that he engaged throughout his life-including hospitality, grace, the symbolic economy of reciprocity, kinship, the paradoxes of friendship, ritual logics, the anthropology of dress, and more-this omnibus brings his reflections to new life. Holding Pitt-Rivers's diversity of subjects and ethnographic foci in the same gaze, this book reveals a theoretical unity that ran through his work and highlights his iconic wit and brilliance. Striking at the heart of anthropological theory, the pieces here explore the relationship between the mental and the material, between what is thought and what is done. Classic, definitive, and yet still extraordinarily relevant for contemporary anthropology, Pitt-Rivers's lifetime contribution will provide a new generation of anthropologists with an invaluable resource for reflection on both ethnographic and theoretical issues.

    Abstract: The contributions to this book address the translation of culture in the context of religion, showing that this can be a bi-directional or even multiple process because the works we analyse give evidence of how their authors resort to different cultural traditions and languages and interrelate them through translation, all trying to achieve one principal objective: that of communication across boundaries. Thus, our studies analyse texts in literary, ethnohistorical and/or linguistic terms, highlighting the processes of translation across cultures. On the one hand, they include studies of the missionary context of the Early Middle Ages (Murdoch) and of colonially dominated cultures in Latin America (Sachse, Dedenbach-Salazar, Sarion), India (Eliasson), China (Jasper), Africa (Colenso) and Australia (Moore), from the 16th to the early 20th century. On the other hand, they analyse literary works with respect to how these transmit and translate culture: one a German play in the context of Islam (Irving), the other one a novel of the Haitian diaspora in the USA (Darroch). Another contribution presents the challenges of how the concept of religion itself is conveyed in contemporary scholarly contexts (Roberts). The works and con/texts we analyse here reflect understandings of Christianity which are not always orthodox and where authors of the pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial worlds try to convey and communicate cosmovisions and religious concepts to recipients beyond the original cultural spheres. By using different methodological tools, the contributors to this volume show the manifold and innovative ways in which this field of the translation of culture can be approached. (Umschlagtext)

    Abstract: This collection highlights a key metaphor in contemporary discourse about economy and society. The contributors explore how references to reality and the real economy are linked both to the utopias of collective well-being, supported by real monies and good economies, and the dystopias of financial bubbles and busts, in which people`s own lives "crash" along with the reality of their economies.An ambitious anthropology of economy, this volume questions how assemblages of vernacular and scientific realizations and enactments of the economy are linked to ideas of truth and moral value; how these multiple and shifting realities become present and entangle with historically and socially situated lives; and how the formal realizations of the concept of the "real" in the governance of economies engage with the experiential lives of ordinary people. Featuring essays from some of the world`s most prominent economic anthropologists, The Real Economy is a milestone collection in economic anthropology that crosses disciplinary boundaries and adds new life to social studies of the economy.

    Benin : "Positive Abweichung": arme Haushalte und trotzdem gesunde Kinder : Bekämpfung der Mangelernährung (2019)

    Keywords: Benin Ernährung ; Gesundheit ; Entwicklungszusammenarbeit
    Abstract: Das westafrikanische Benin ist durch Massenarmut und eine mangelhafte Ernährungslage von Teilen der Bevölkerung geprägt. Dabei ist weniger der Zugang zu Grundnahrungsmitteln das primäre Problem als vielmehr die Mangel- und Fehlernährung aufgrund der extrem geringen Kaufkraft der meisten Haushalte und der zu geringen Eigenproduktion hochwertiger Nahrungsmittel. Besonders davon betroffen sind Kinder. Ernährungsmängel finden sich vor allem im ländlichen Raum, und so interveniert ein deutsches Vorhaben der Technischen Zusammenarbeit in fünf Gemeinden im Departement Atacora im nördlichen Benin. In 61 Dörfern werden auf der Grundlage an- thropometrischer Kenndaten (d.h. Gewicht und Oberarmumfang) mangelernährte Kinder identifiziert und gezielte Maßnahmen umgesetzt, in deren Mittelpunkt eine verbesserte tägliche Ernährung, vor allem von Kleinkindern, steht. Die Grundpraktiken hierfür werden mit Hilfe freiwilliger GemeindehelferInnen und basierend auf dem Ansatz der "positiven Abweichung" (franz. déviation positive ) den Müttern aus armen Haushalten auf sehr praktische Weise nahegebracht: In einer Gruppe von gleichermaßen sehr armen Menschen in einem Dorf gibt es Haushalte, deren Kinder erkennbar gesünder sind (z.B. nicht untergewichtig und weniger krankheitsanfällig) als der Durchschnitt aller Kinder der Gruppe. Nachdem die Gründe dafür identifiziert sind (z.B. nur sauberes Trinkwasser genutzt oder eine bessere Ernährung), werden um die "positiv abweichenden" Mütter herum Kochgruppen gebildet. Hier kann jeweils einem Dutzend armer Frauen mit Unterstützung des Projektes in zwei Wochen in praktischen Kochaktionen gezeigt werden, wie mit einfachsten Mitteln und nahezu ohne zusätzliche Kosten nahrhaftere Speisen zubereitet werden können. Schon nach diesen zwei Wochen zeigten sich gute Erfolge und so ist zu erwarten, dass ein Großteil der rund 2.000 im Jahr erreichten Frauen das Gelernte auch weiterhin im Interesse ihrer Kinder anwenden wird.

    Abstract: "Drawing on insights from theoretical engagements with materiality and subalternity, Materiality, Practice and Performance at Sacred Sites in India and Pakistan opens new frames for understanding religion in South Asia. The book takes seriously the realm of material expression in popular religion as a very real and important indication of wider developments in political, social and religious identity and practice. As a result, the authors challenge the definition of religion more broadly. By exploring selected sites of piety including shrines and their associated ephemeral paraphernalia such as amulets, posters, and clay objects, the authors argue that popular religion of Punjab should neither be limited to a polarized picture between formal, institutional religion nor the `enchanted universe' of rituals, saints, shrines and village deities. Instead, the book presents a picture of `religion' as a realm of movement, mobilization, and multiplicity. Through extensive ethnographic research, the authors explore the reality of the complex, fluid and dynamic relations that characterize the everyday material and religious lives on the ground. Ultimately, popular religion challenges the borders and boundaries of religious and communal categories, nationalism, and theological frameworks"

    Abstract: In «Eine kurze Geschichte der Menschheit» erzählte er vom Aufstieg des Homo Sapiens zum Herrn der Welt. In «Homo Deus» ging es um die Zukunft unserer Spezies. Mit seinem neuen Buch schaut Yuval Noah Harari, einer der aufregendsten Denker der Gegenwart, nun auf das Hier und Jetzt und stellt die drängenden Fragen unserer Zeit. Warum ist die liberale Demokratie in der Krise? Ist Gott zurück? Soll Europa offen bleiben für Zuwanderer? Kann der Nationalismus eine Antwort geben auf Klimawandel und soziale Ungleichheit? Was sollen wir unseren Kindern beibringen? Und können wir die Welt überhaupt noch verstehen, die wir erschaffen haben?Yuval Noah Harari hat Millionen Leser auf der ganzen Welt in seinen Bann geschlagen. In seinem neuen Buch lädt er dazu ein, über Werte, Bedeutung und persönliches Engagement in einer Zeit voller Lärm und Ungewissheit nachzudenken. In einer Welt, die überschwemmt wird mit bedeutungslosen Informationen, ist Klarheit Macht. Doch Milliarden von uns können sich kaum den Luxus leisten, sich mit den drängenden Fragen der Gegenwart zu beschäftigen, weil wir Dringenderes zu erledigen haben. Leider gewährt die Geschichte keinen Rabatt. Wenn über die Zukunft der Menschheit in unserer Abwesenheit entschieden wird, weil wir zu sehr damit beschäftigt sind, unsere Kinder zu ernähren und mit Kleidung zu versorgen, werden wir und sie dennoch nicht von den Folgen verschont bleiben. Dieses Buch versorgt die Menschen nicht mit Kleidung oder Nahrung. Aber es kann helfen, die Dinge ein wenig klarer zu sehen, und damit das globale Spielfeld etwas einebnen. Wenn es auch nur ein paar mehr von uns in die Lage versetzt, sich an der Diskussion über die Zukunft unserer Spezies zu beteiligen, so hat es seine Aufgabe erfüllt.

    Abstract: Comment les normes dictées par l`État influencent les acteurs locaux d`Afrique subsaharienne, et comment ces derniers s`y confrontent au quotidien? Les contributions ici réunies examinent cette problématique dans le champ des médias, du foncier, du développement, de la santé et de l`environnement.Qu`est censé dire et faire un agriculteur d`Ekondo Kondo, en pleine forêt camerounaise, lorsque l`État ou le directeur d`un projet de développement lui ordonne de vivre selon de nouvelles normes et non plus selon celles jusqu`alos en vigueur, construites tout au long de l`histoire ? Que peut dire et que peut faire le journaliste ou la présentatrice de radio dès lors que l`État se met à légiférer, en lui imposant un code qui jusqu`ici n`était pas le sien? Comment concilier pastoralisme et développement de l`agriculture dans le Delta intérieur du Niger ? Autant de questions parmi bien d`autres qui montrent combien la mise en oeuvre de politiques imaginées par un État central (avec souvent l`appui de grandes institutions internationales comme le FMI ou la banque mondiale) peut-être à la fois très compliquée mais aussi inefficiente en raison d`une réalité locale souvent totalement ignorée lors de la prise de décisions.
    Note: Ces communications sont fondées sur un travail de terrain suivi d`échanges dans le cadre d`une conférence où ont pu être ainsi confrontés les points de vue de spécialistes de différentes régions du monde de l`Afrique anglophone (Cameroun, Ghana et Kenya) et francophone (Mali, Cameroun).

    Abstract: This work analyses the paintings of eight frequently visited churches which feature prominently in the Ethiopian tourism industry: Yimrhane Kirstos and Lalibela in Lasta, Abrha we Asbha and Aksum Maryam Tsion in Tigrai, Debre Sina Maryam on the northern shore of Lake Tana, Narga Sillasse and Ura Kidane Mihret in Lake Tana and Debre Birhan Sillasse in Gondar. This study highlights that for centuries Christianity and Christian art has been an important component of Ethiopian culture. This can be noticed even in the daily life of the people. In this casual photo of children at the Blue Nile Falls, it can be seen that pendant or neck cross is one of the earliest possessions of Christian children. (Umschlagtext)

    Abstract: Divorcing Traditions is an ethnography of Islamic legal expertise and practices in India, a secular state in which Muslims are a significant minority and where Islamic judgments are not legally binding. Katherine Lemons argues that an analysis of divorce in accordance with Islamic strictures is critical to the understanding of Indian secularism.Lemons analyzes four marital dispute adjudication forums run by Muslim jurists or lay Muslims to show that religious law does not muddle the categories of religion and law but generates them. Drawing on ethnographic and archival research conducted in these four institutions--NGO-run women's arbitration centers (mahila panchayats); sharia courts (dar ul-qazas); a Muslim jurist's authoritative legal opinions (fatwas); and the practice of what a Muslim legal expert (mufti) calls "spiritual healing"--Divorcing Traditions shows how secularism is an ongoing project that seeks to establish and maintain an appropriate relationship between religion and politics. A secular state is always secularizing. And yet, as Lemons demonstrates, the state is not the only arbiter of the relationship between religion and law: religious legal forums help to constitute the categories of private and public, religious and secular upon which secularism relies. In the end, because Muslim legal expertise and practice are central to the Indian legal system and because Muslim divorce's contested legal status marks a crisis of the secular distinction between religion and law, Muslim divorce, argues Lemons, is a key site for understanding Indian secularism.

    Abstract: Many observers of Kenya's complicated history raise cause for concern, offering critiques of practices such as the use of public office for private gain and a constitutional structure that gives the executive branch lopsided influence. Yet efforts from critics and academics to diagnose the country's problems do not often consider what these fiscal and political issues mean to ordinary Kenyans. How do Kenyans express their own political understandings, make sense of governance, and articulate what they expect from their leaders?In For Money and Elders, Robert Blunt addresses these questions by turning to the political, economic, and religious signs in circulation in Kenya today. He examines how Kenyans attempt to make sense of political instability caused by the uncertainty of authority behind everything from currency to title deeds. When the symbolic order of a society is up for grabs, he shows, violence may seem like an expedient way to enforce the authority of signs. Drawing on fertile concepts of sovereignty, elderhood, counterfeiting, acephaly, and more, Blunt explores phenomena as diverse as the destabilization of ritual "oaths," public anxieties about Satanism with the advent of democratic reform, and contemporary mistrust of state currency. The result is a fascinating glimpse into Kenya's past and present and a penetrating reflection on meanings of violence in African politics.

    Abstract: It is time Indian Christianity reflected deeply upon its place in the Indian public, grew in its publicness, and got involved heart and soul in the processes of the public sphere. Needless to say that Indian Christianity has been existing, in some form or other, as part of the Indian public. However, the context is different today, and it calls for an informed and deeply reflective awareness of its identity, role, relationality with the state and different religious others, presence in public and civil spheres, etc. By way of contributing to such reflection, this volume brings together some essays that explore Indian Christianity's relationship to the Indian public from socio-theological perspectives. The essays take the reader through a journey of getting to know some salient features and concerns of Indian Christianity, and then lead to a public theological rendezvous with relevance, methods, and themes of public theology. The volume would make a good introductory reading for students of Indian Christianity, sociology of religion, public religion, and public theology in the Indian context.

    Negotiating Afghan "traditional" law in the international civil trials in the Czech Republic (2019)

    Abstract: Along with whatever belongings they carry, migrants and refugees always bring their laws, cultures, and contextually specific experiences (feuds, state failures) in some form to their host countries. Various migrants? identities may include law as a dimension that belongs to specific collectives (tribes, religious communities) beyond the nation-state. In contrast to the juridical notion of law as a dimension of the nation-state, legal systems within countries such as Afghanistan are sometimes classified as "legal systems based on reciprocity?, or "horizontal legal systems?. Encounters of judges and other legal experts in the Czech Republic with such legal systems within the framework of international civil trials are driven by an official imperative that the foreign law must be understood as the law truly applied in the country of origin. Such a situation unsettles deep-rooted notions of the state, generates uncertainty about conventional understandings of the law, and indicates the necessity of employing legal-ethnological conceptual tools. Drawing on empirical cases involving Afghan law in the form of foreign law in international civil trials, this paper investigates the difference between a legal understanding of Afghan law in the Czech legal framework, achieved mostly through the concept of state law, and an ethnological understanding of law in Afghanistan based on Pospíil?s analytical concepts. Finally, it suggests the relevance of applying the analytical distinction between legal sodalities and legal modalities. (Abstract)

    Keywords: Westafrika Benin ; Burkina Faso ; Republik Niger ; Nationalpark ; Landnutzung ; Ressource
    Abstract: Der grenzüberschreitende Nationalpark W liegt in Westafrika im Dreiländereck von Benin, Burkina Faso und Niger. 1927 unter französischer Kolonialherrschaft gegründet, erfolgte 2002 die Ausrufung zum ersten grenzüberschreitenden Biosphärenreservat Afrikas. Trotz diverser partizipativer Maßnahmen der Parkverwaltung gefährden Feldbau, grenzüberschreitende mobile Weidewirtschaft (Transhumanz), Wilderei und Holzeinschlag den Nationalpark. Konflikte um die Nutzung von Land und anderen kritischen Ressourcen entstehen insbesondere in der überregulierten Pufferzone. Dieses Buch fragt, wie Überwachungseinheiten in diesem Kontext operieren. Es beschreibt typische Situationen des Zusammentreffens zwischen Parküberwachung und lokalen Akteuren in drei unterschiedlichen Arenen: der Kernzone des Parks, dem Anrainerdorf und lokalen politischen Foren. Die dichten Fallstudien verdeutlichen die konfliktreichen Prozesse, in denen die Idee "Nationalpark" von Akteuren der Parkverwaltung und ihren lokalen Mitarbeitern in den Kontext der Baumwollstadt Banikoara übersetzt wird und wie der Nationalpark in diesen Prozessen zu einer lokalen Bedeutung gelangt. Das Buch, das auf einer vierzehnmonatigen Feldforschung zwischen 2008 und 2010 basiert, setzt neue Impulse für die Weiterentwicklung partizipativer Ansätze in Ressourcenschutzgebieten und benennt die Herausforderungen staatlichen Handelns im Spannungsfeld von Ressourcenschutz und cash crop-orientierter ländlicher Entwicklungspolitik.

    Abstract: Das vom äthiopischen Landwirtschaftsministerium durchgeführte und von mehreren Geberorganisationen geförderte Sustainable Land Management Programme (SLMP) in Äthiopien wird in insgesamt sechs Bundes- ländern und darin in 176 woredas (Landkreise) implementiert. Dabei werden Wassereinzugsgebiete berücksichtigt, die durch hohe Bodenerosion und Bodendegradation gekennzeichnet sind, die die hauptsächlich von der Landwirtschaft lebenden Menschen in hohem Maße vulnerabel machen. Zu den vom SLMP geförderten Maßnahmen zählen zu- nächst die Organisation und Schulung der betroffenen Bevölkerung für die Planung, Verwaltung und Durch- führung der Maßnahmen auf verschiedenen adminis- trativen Ebenen. Die Wassereinzugsgebiete werden im nächsten Schritt mit wasserspeichernden und bodenverbessernden Maßnahmen wie z.B. dem Verbau von Ero- sionsrinnen ( gullies? ), der Aufforstung von Hangkuppen, der Terrassierung von Hängen bzw. der Pflanzung von Grasstreifen entlang der Hangkonturlinien rehabilitiert und in Wert gesetzt. Des Weiteren werden Gebiete ge- schützt und der natürlichen Regeneration überlassen bzw. mit Mehrzweckbäumen und Gräsern aufgeforstet. Zusätzliche Projektaktivitäten sind das Bohren von Brunnen, der Bau von Zufahrtsstraßen sowie die Förderung von Kleinbewässerung und Tierhaltung zur Schaffung von zusätzlichem Einkommen. Eine Grundvoraussetzung für die Nachhaltigkeit der Maßnahmen, die den Bauern und Bäuerinnen auch Rechtssicherheit bei der Bewirtschaftung ihrer Felder verschafft, ist die Registrierung der Flächen und Vergabe von Landtiteln an Ehepaare. Die Teilnahme am Projekt hat zu einer enormen Steigerung des Grundwassers und bei allen im Rahmen der INEF-Studie befragten Familien zu einem höheren Einkommen durch die Produktionssteigerung auf den in Wert gesetzten Flächen geführt.

    Abstract: Set in a remote district of villagers and nomadic pastoralists in the northernmost part of Mongolia, Højer introduces a local world, where social relationships are cast in witchcraft-like idioms of mistrust and suspicion. While the apparent social breakdown that followed the collapse of state socialism in Mongolia often implied a chaotic lack of social cohesion, this ethnography reveals an everyday universe where uncertain relations are as much internally cultivated in indigenous Mongolian perceptions of social relatedness, as it is externally confronted in postsocialist surroundings of unemployment and diminished social security.

    Keywords: Äthiopien Selbsthilfe ; Ernährung ; Sozio-ökonomischer Aspekt ; Entwicklungszusammenarbeit
    Abstract: Bei dem Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP) handelt es sich um ein System der Sozialen Sicherung für derzeit rund acht Millionen extrem arme und ernährungsunsichere Menschen in von Dürre besonders betroffenen woredas (Landkreisen) in Äthiopien. Primär werden öffentliche Arbeiten im Rahmen von food? / ?cash for work gefördert. Die gleichermaßen von Männern und Frauen geleisteten Arbeiten fokussieren sich vor allem auf boden- und wasserkonservierende Maßnahmen. Hinzu kommen unkonditionierte Geldzahlungen oder Nahrungsmittelzuteilungen ( direct support? ) für Menschen, die nicht arbeitsfähig sind, sowie in bisher geringem Umfang nichtrückzahlbare finanzielle Zuwendungen für die Existenzgründung. Die Geld- bzw. Nahrungstransfers werden begleitet durch zahlreiche Beratungsleistungen wie etwa die Vorbereitung der Haushalte auf landwirtschaftliche oder auf die Viehzucht ausgerichtete kleine Investitionen und den entsprechenden Zugang zu Bankkrediten. Das vorliegende Good Practice Heft stellt die Praxis des PSNP dar und beschäftigt sich mit Wirkungen des Programms und bestehenden Herausforderungen. Dabei stellt sich das PSNP einerseits als ein gutes Beispiel für Soziale Sicherung dar. Ziele, Struktur, die umfassende Implementierungsorganisation auf Ebene der wore das und auch das targeting der bedürftigen Menschen sind mustergültig und können als ein Modell für andere Länder dienen. Für Millionen armer und ernährungsunsicherer Haushalte ist das Programm eine wichtige Überlebenshilfe. Andererseits ist die finanzielle Ausstattung des u.a. vom äthiopischen Staat, der Weltbank und einem Dutzend weiterer Geber getragenen Programms völlig unzureichend. Aus Geldmangel kann weder die Mehrheit aller extrem armen und ernährungsunsicheren Menschen auf dem Lande in die Maßnahmen einbezogen werden, noch sind die individuellen Geldzahlungen hinreichend, um die tatsächlich Begünstigten nachhaltig aus der Vulnerabilität herauszuführen. Letzteres gelingt vor allem nur bei denjenigen, die Einmalzahlungen erhalten und mit dem Geld sowie zusätzlichen Krediten geschickt investieren und wirtschaften.

    Series Statement: Theorizing Ethnography
    Keywords: Philosophie Ethnographie ; Ungleichheit ; Differenzierung ; Ethnologie ; Wagner, Roy
    Abstract: Roy Wagner's work deals with two fundamental issues in anthropology: how to describe difference, and where to place it in anthropological discourse. His discussion and displacement of anthropological concepts such as "group" and "culture" in the 1970s and 1980s have arguably encouraged a deconstructive undertaking in the discipline. Yet Wagner's work, although part of the radicalizing move of the 1970s and 1980s in anthropology, was until some years ago not a central reference for anthropological theory. The question Dulley asks throughout her engagement with Wagner's main essays is whether it is possible for the emic gesture to account for difference within difference without falling into the closure of totalization. Wagner's work contains this potentiality but is hindered by its very foundation: the emic gesture, in which difference is circumscribed through a name that others. If this gesture is one of the pillars of anthropology, and one that allows for the inscription of difference, the reflection proposed in this book concerns anthropology as a whole: How can one inscribe difference within difference? Dulley argues that this can only be accomplished through an erasure of the emic. Offering a comprehensive discussion of Wagner's concepts and a detailed reading of his most important work, this book will be of interest to anyone who wishes to reflect on the relationship between ethnography and difference, and especially those who in various ways engage with the "ontological turn". As the book reflects on how Derridean differance can be appropriated by anthropology in its search for subtler and more critical ethnographic accounts, anthropologists interested in post-structuralist theory and methodology will also find it useful.

    Series Statement: Memory Politics and Transitional Justice
    Keywords: Äthiopien Bürgerkrieg ; Befreiungsbewegung ; Politik und Gesellschaft ; Politischer Wandel ; Gedächtnis ; Museum ; Red Terror Martyrs Memorial Museum 〈Addis Abeba〉
    Abstract: This book asks the question: what is the role of memory during a political transition? Drawing on Ethiopian history, transitional justice, and scholarly fields concerned with memory, museums and trauma, the author reveals a complex picture of global, transnational, national and local forces as they converge in the story of the creation and continued life of one modest museum in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa-the Red Terror Martyrs Memorial Museum. It is a study from multiple margins: neither the case of Ethiopia nor memorialization is central to transitional justice discourse, and within Ethiopia, the history of the Red Terror is sidelined in contemporary politics. From these nested margins, traumatic memory emerges as an ambiguous social and political force. The contributions, meaning and limitations of memory emerge at the point of discrete interactions between memory advocates, survivor-docents and visitors. Memory from the margins is revealed as powerful for how it disrupts, not builds, new forms of community.

    Abstract: Cueva Blanca, a cave in the side of a volcanic tuff cliff in Oaxaca, Mexico, contains evidence of thousands of years of human use. Archaeologists Kent V. Flannery and Frank Hole excavated a series of Archaic sites in the Valley of Oaxaca, including Cueva Blanca, as part of a project on the prehistory and human ecology of this region of Mexico. This cave yielded artifacts from the Late Pleistocene through the Early Archaic to the Late Archaic.

    Abstract: Prices permeate contemporary life. From the cost of basic foodstuffs in developing countries to the pay of CEOs in rich ones, the question of the politics and ethics of pricing everything through the market dominates public life. At the same time, we know that dilemmas about how to value fairly, but also efficiently, goods and services have been with us for more than two thousand years, since the times of Aristotle in Ancient Greece. Through the course of the centuries, important thinkers like Thomas Aquinas, Adam Smith and Karl Marx all devoted considerable effort to try to understand how prices could reflect the intrinsic worth of the objects workers produce and exchange with other people. This is the question of the "just price." This volume represents the first systematic attempt to address this ancient debate through the use of qualitative empirical research, particularly ethnography. The volume comprises a substantial introduction that sets out the terms of the debate, proposing four different approaches to the just price, plus eight case studies based on fieldwork carried out in four different continents (Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America), ranging from topics such as fair trade, human rights and recycling, to organic agriculture, the rose oil industry, rural and urban marketplaces.Bringing together the most recent scholarship in economic anthropology and associated fields to investigate the social, political and ethical consequences of market prices on ordinary people, this book is of interest to researchers in anthropology, sociology, history and geography.
