Digital Relics Of The Saints Of Affliction: Hiv/Aids, Digital Images And The Neoliberalisation Of Health Humanitarianism In Contemporary Vietnam, Alfred Montoya Sep 2015

Digital Relics Of The Saints Of Affliction: Hiv/Aids, Digital Images And The Neoliberalisation Of Health Humanitarianism In Contemporary Vietnam, Alfred Montoya

Sociology & Anthropology Faculty Research

Neoliberal logics and calculations have been incorporated into strategies for global health management as rational, technical, scientific guarantors of the integrity and dignity of The Human. NGOs demonstrate, accrue and trade in virtue to gain support, funding and prestige. They field site-visit teams which conduct audits of local partners, review programme data and collect images and narratives of and from the recipients of aid. These images and narratives are used to assess the performance of their local partners and win new donations and volunteers in their home countries. These powerful images and harrowing stories appear in NGO media, establishing the …


Death, After-Death And The Human In The Internet Era: Remembering, Not Forgetting Professor Michael C. Kearl (1949-2015), Connor Graham, Alfred Montoya Sep 2015

Death, After-Death And The Human In The Internet Era: Remembering, Not Forgetting Professor Michael C. Kearl (1949-2015), Connor Graham, Alfred Montoya

Sociology & Anthropology Faculty Research

Today, humans have remains that are other than physical, generated within and supported by new information communications technologies (ICTs). As with human remains of the past, these are variously attended to or ignored. In this article, which serves as the introduction to this special issue, we examine the reality, meaning and use of enduring digital remains of humans. We are specifically interested in the evolving practices of remembering and forgetting associated with them. These previously posited considerations of ‘human remains’ and ‘what remains of the human’ are useful for exploring the relationship between the Internet, the body, remembering and forgetting. …

Un Canto En Movimiento: "No Nos Moverán" En Estados Unidos, España Y Chile En Los Siglos Xix Y Xx, David Spener

Sociology & Anthropology Faculty Research

Resumen: En este trabajo se presentan los resultados de un estudio que examina la historia de la canción “No nos moverán” y su canto en diversos contextos culturales y sociopolíticos durante el transcurso de dos siglos. Esta canción tiene su origen en las prácticas religiosas de los esclavos africanos en Estados Unidos del siglo XIX. En el siglo XX fue adoptada como himno por los movimientos sindicales y de derechos civiles estadounidenses. Posteriormente llegó a España, donde cumplió un papel en la resistencia al régimen franquista, antes de ser cantada en Chile para defender el proyecto socialista de Salvador Allende. …

Utatlán: The Constituted Community Of The K'Iche' Maya Of Q'Umarkaj ‐ By Backcock, Thomas F. [Review Of The Book Utatlán: The Constituted Community Of The K'Iche' Maya Of Q'Umarkaj, By T. F. Babcock], Jennifer P. Mathews Jan 2015

Utatlán: The Constituted Community Of The K'Iche' Maya Of Q'Umarkaj ‐ By Backcock, Thomas F. [Review Of The Book Utatlán: The Constituted Community Of The K'Iche' Maya Of Q'Umarkaj, By T. F. Babcock], Jennifer P. Mathews

Sociology & Anthropology Faculty Research

This volume is the culmination of fieldwork that was carried out in the 1970s at Greater Utatlán, made up of several communities surrounding the ceremonial centre of Q'umarkaj and the famed home of the Popol Wuj. Although he completed his dissertation in 1980, Babcock freely admits that life got in the way of publishing at the time, and I commend him for returning to it three decades later. This temporal distance offers the advantage of being able to review the initial work within the context of later research and to incorporate the wisdom attained since the initial writing of …
