CASCA/SANA2016 panel - looking for participants: CULTURAL PRODUCTION AND THE STATE

PANEL PROPOSAL: CULTURAL PRODUCTION AND THE STATE

Institutionalized arenas of culture production like film, music and
performing arts industries have been described as spaces both
nurturing critical public dialogue and advancing hegemonic projects.
By employing notions like cultural and creative industries, culture as
a resource for governance, alternativity, and artistic public sphere,
arenas of cultural production can be seen as zones where government
institutions, transnational agencies, cultural producers and consumers
negotiate dissent and incorporation. This panel welcomes contributions
of anthropologist exploring the intersections of art, market, society
and state. Among the questions we would like to consider are: How do
states incorporate, marginalize, engage or ignore artistic practices?
How do artistic projects permeate state's projects? How do social
actors in this field articulate and narrate social solidarities?
Please send inquiries and abstracts to Daniel Salas-Gonzalez
(Daniel.Salas@Dal.ca) by January 31, 2016.

2016 CASCA/SANA cfp: Debt and the Double Edge of Solidarity

Debt and the Double Edge of Solidarity

Anthropologists have long been interested in the paradoxical roles that
financial and other forms of debt play in social life: its potential to bind
and to divide, to intensify social inequalities and to blur them; its role in
both expressing and destabilizing care and kinship; its ability to render
people solid citizens and deadbeats. Since the global financial crisis, as
Holly High observes, debt is approaching a Maussian "total" social phenomenon,
one in which "everything intermingles." This panel explores the paradoxes of
the credit/debt dyad (Gustav Peebles's term), with particular attention to its
work at/as a "double edge" of solidarity. Possible topics include but are not
limited to: the role of various types of debt in forming and fracturing
solidarities across and within social and geopolitical boundaries; the role of
elite solidarities in establishing debt as a mechanism for governmentality and
subjectivation; and anthropology's potential to illuminate debt's part in
making and unmaking shared identities, interests and struggles within and
across political movements, groups, classes, institutions and households.

Memorial University of Newfoundland)

CFP CASCA-SANA 2016: Public and private in urban space / Le public et le priv=?utf-8?Q?=C3=A9_dans_l=E2=80=99espace?= urbain

Public and private in urban space / Le public et le privé dans l'espace
urbain

[English follows]

Les villes concentrent des institutions, intérêts et ressources que l'on
classe souvent comme étant soit privés, soit publics. En fait, le public et
le privé s'imbriquent l'un dans l'autre, les préoccupations privées
devenant souvent le moteur des actions publiques et vice versa.

Tandis que la dimension publique de la ville a été grandement étudiée, sa
dimension privée demeure sous-théorisée; les recherches actuelles portent
surtout sur les effets néfastes de la privatisation de l'espace public sans
s'attarder, par exemple, sur les dynamiques de l'intime ou du domestique en
ville. Comme l'a mis en évidence l'anthropologie féministe, les sphères
publiques et privées se co-produisent et sont traversées par des rapports
de force et des flux de pouvoir. En transposant cette approche sur les
espaces urbains, cette session cherche à explorer les interstices, les
imbrications et les intersections du public et du privé et leurs
conséquences sur les relations sociales dans la ville.


Veuillez envoyer votre proposition de communication avec un titre, un
résumé de 100 à 150 mots, des mots clés et les noms des co-auteurs (le cas
échéant) avant le 22 janvier à Martha Radice martha.radice@dal.ca et
Nathalie Boucher nathalie.boucher.1@umontreal.ca .


Public and private in urban space

Cities concentrate institutions, interests and resources that are often
classed as either public or private. In fact, the private and the public
are bound up in one another, with private preoccupations often driving
public action and vice versa. While the public dimension of the city has
been thoroughly problematized, the private remains under-theorized; current
research studies the ill effects of the privatisation of public space, for
instance, without looking at the dynamics of the domestic or intimate
realms in the city. As feminist anthropology has shown, public and private
spheres mutually produce each other and are traversed by relations and
circulations of power. Transposing this approach to urban spaces, this
panel seeks to explore the entanglements, interstices and intersections of
the public and the private, and their consequences for social relations in
the city.

Please send your paper proposal including the title, abstract (of 100 to
150 words), keywords, and co-authors (if applicable) by 22 January to
Martha Radice martha.radice@dal.ca and Nathalie Boucher
nathalie.boucher.1@umontreal.ca .

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Solidarit(i)=?utf-8?Q?=C3=A9s?= at the Intersection of Food and Religion

Solidarit(i)és at the Intersection of Food and Religion

Session to be submitted for the CASCA/SANA meetings at Dalhousie
University, May 11 - 15, 2016

Food and religious communities offer a unique perspective to explore
the complexities, tensions, and contradictions that arise within the
dual nature of solidarity as both a place of cohesion and separation.
The panel addresses foodways as political, economic, and/or cultural
dimensions of production, distribution, preparation, and/or
consumption in relation to religious rituals, beliefs, and practices.
Though we hope to offer an open and general call to the panel, we ask
that papers ethnographically consider the conference theme of
Solidarit(i)és (http://cascasana2016.com/call-for-papers/) at the
intersection of food and religion.

Please send inquiries and/or short abstracts (150 words) to Jason WM
Ellsworth by January 25th, 2015 at Jason.Ellsworth@dal.ca

Rappel/Reminder - CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Solidarities with Indigenous Peoples in Canada and Beyond

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP reminder


Solidarities with Indigenous Peoples in Canada and Beyond

Anthropologists work with and for Indigenous peoples in Canada and
beyond. They expose negative representations about Indigenous peoples
within all forms of media. In consultation with Indigenous
stakeholders, anthropologists revise education programs, systems and
resources providing better access and culturally appropriate
instruction. Anthropologists act as expert witnesses for Indigenous
peoples within the courts. They work toward solutions to pressing
health challenges and problems confronting Indigenous peoples. Applied
anthropologists work closely with Indigenous peoples on a host of
practical projects designed to address routine and extraordinary needs
while creating capacity within communities. Anthropologists
collaborate with Indigenous historians and linguists building archives
using Indigenous knowledge and practices to save and maintain
Indigenous histories and languages. These panels invite, among other
things, anthropologists and Indigenous peoples to reflect upon what
solidarity requires, where solidarity-building has worked or not, and
what could have been done differently.

2016 CASCA/SANA Conference: Call for Panel Papers - Emerging economic futures: The intersections of informality and formality

2016 CASCA/SANA Conference: Call for Panel Papers

May 11-15, 2016. Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia
Co-organizers: Alan Smart (University of Calgary) and B. Lynne Milgram
(OCAD University)

Panel Abstract:
Emerging economic futures: The intersections of informality and formality

One of the key legacies of Keith Hart's original work is that current
scholarship has replaced the informal/formal sector dualism with the
recognition that informality/formality are interdependently linked.
Indeed, both academic analysis and development policy increasingly
bring informal and formal together, especially as policies encourage
the formalization of informality. This panel will broaden the terms of
this engagement by analyzing a range of formal/informal intersections.
Governments and corporations, for example, may formalize informality
by engaging informal actors as subcontractors or salespeople; within
supra-national institutions formality/informality are negotiated and
enforced through non-legally binding (soft law) tools (e.g., treaties,
conventions); and NGOs, grassroots movements and civic associations
often struggle to formalize and legalize their practice. By analyzing
the myriad ways in which formality and informality intersect and
interact – subordination, toleration, regularization, eradication,
exploitation and subversion – panel papers will effectively inform the

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Solidarities at the Edge of Exclusion

Solidarities at the Edge of Exclusion

Solidarity is usually celebrated as a good thing and something that
ought to be promoted. But the forging of solidarity movements
necessarily sets one locus of collective values and commitments
against others and can lead to marginalization, rupture, scapegoating,
and exclusion. This panel engages with the irresolvable tension
between inclusion and exclusion in the forging of solidarities by
paying particular attention to their exclusionary sides, broadly
understood. It invites contributions that ethnographically investigate
how troubled forms of social difference are produced, lived, and
interpreted at the level of everyday practice. We will be especially
interested in the following questions: How do the dualities of
solidarity making – inclusion and exclusion – play out in practical
contexts? When solidarities collapse, how do social actors make sense
of the breakdown of collective attachments and commitments? How do
individuals and collectives navigate the everyday tensions that might
develop when they are allied in one context or moment, but opposed in
others? How fixed are group boundaries, and even in cases of deep
collective antipathies, is group membership always or ever an "all or
nothing matter"? When social actors engage in exclusionary boundary
work, what justifications do they give to these practices? Finally,
are there particular theoretical, methodological, or other challenges
associated with ethnographic investigations of solidarity's
exclusionary sides?

Please send inquiries or abstracts of 150 words to Laura Eramian
(Sociology and Social Anthropology, Dalhousie University) at
leramian@dal.ca by January 18, 2016.

Panel CFP –Indigenous knowledge and wildlife biodiversity, International Union for Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences Intercongress, Dubrovnik, Croatia, May 4-9, 2016

Panel CFP –Indigenous knowledge and wildlife biodiversity,
International Union for Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences
Intercongress, Dubrovnik, Croatia, May 4-9, 2016
Submission deadline:January 31, 2016

Ever since the Convention on Biological Diversity in 1992, states have
been called upon to respect, preserve, and maintain the knowledge and
practices of indigenous and local peoples relevant to conservation of
biological diversity. The 2007 UN Declaration on the Rights of
Indigenous Peoples likewise recognizes that respect for indigenous
knowledge contributes to sustainable development and environmental
stewardship; while calling for indigenous control of environmental
knowledge. There is a general idea that indigenous rights and
biodiversity conservation should reinforce one another, but a need to
collect case studies to see how this works in culture- and
species-specific contexts.

This panel explores the experiences of indigenous cultures with
initiatives in wildlife, including avian, biodiversity; as well as
untapped potential for indigenous contribution to conservation. This
panel seeks to explore knowledge systems of indigenous peoples,
especially relationships with birds and other wildlife. It plans to
look at case studies in which indigenous peoples have been involved in
wetlands management, coastal areas management, conservation efforts
and co-management of hunting regimes, with critical perspectives on
politics of biodiversity. It will look at cases where indigenous
peoples are included in such projects; but also at cases in which they
are excluded. Do different peoples have different ways of perceiving
wildlife and living with animals, including birds? What are the
implications of social and cultural differences for conservation of
biological diversity? How can indigenous rights be reinforced or
undermined by biodiversity regimes? What potential exists for
collaboration between anthropologists, biologists, and indigenous
communities in wildlife conservation?

Please submit panel online before January 31, 2016 (midnight Croatia
time): http://iuaes2016.com/submit-paper/.

Reminder-CASCA/SANA 2016: Panel CFP - Solidarity with who?: On the Challenges of Studying Up

Reminder/Rappel


Solidarity with who?: On the Challenges of Studying Up
Session to be submitted for the CASCA/SANA meetings at Dalhousie
University, May 11 - 15, 2016

Anthropologists often position themselves in solidarity with marginal
groups, frequently represented by our research participants. Yet, for
several decades, anthropologists have also focused on studying
powerful institutions, including sites of scientific and technological
practice, government bureaucracies, and legal and policing systems.
Through this practice of "studying-up," anthropologists unpack the
meanings and practices of those operating within and through often
opaque institutional systems, providing a means of understanding and
often critiquing operations of power (Nader 1989). Yet, conducting
ethnographies of powerful actors and institutions can put us at odds
with the interests, goals, and politics of our research participants.
This panel invites papers that explore the complexities of enacting
solidarities while "studying-up," including discussions of productive
and problematic solidarities in the field and beyond, different means
and forms of solidarity, analyses of critical versus collaborative
approaches to ethnography, and considerations of relationships other
than solidarity in fieldwork.

Please send inquiries and abstracts to Samantha Breslin
(sdbreslin@mun.ca) by January 8, 2016.

Cuts to CHL at ANU

Dear Colleagues

The ANU is threatening to cut 30% or more of the staff of the School
of Culture, History and Language which includes the anthropologists in
what was used toi be the Research School of Pacific Studies, but is
now the ANU College of Asia & the Pacific. Below is a Press release
signed by 70 members of the staff of the School.

If you want to express concern about this here are some email addresses:

Brian Schmidt<brian.schmidt@anu.edu.au> incoming VC; Gareth
Evans<gareth.evans@anu.edu.au>,
Chancellor;veronica.taylor@anu.edu.au<mailto:veronica.taylor@anu.edu.au>, Dean
of ANU College of Asia & the Pacific.

*Call to stop cuts to School of Culture, History and Language*


Staff at the ANU School of Culture, History and Language (CHL) have
been told that as many as one third of them may face dismissal next
year. CHL is among the highest performing academic units in the country.


CHL union representative (NTEU), Associate Professor Assa Doron said,
'CHL is one of the world's leading concentrations of academic
expertise on the Asia Pacific region. This region is central to
Australia's future.'


'Understanding and engaging with Asia and the Pacific is precisely
what will give Australia an advantage in the new global economic
climate when the mining boom ends and the Asia-Pacific trade agreement
enters into force,' said Doron.


'The cuts will hit CHL hard, impacting on the largest concentration of
Asian-Pacific language expertise in Australia,' said world-renowned
linguist Professor Nick Evans. 'Australia arguably has the worst level
of foreign language learning of any OECD country,' said Evans. 'Yet
the amazing range of language experts at CHL is one of our best assets
in turning this around, at a time when more than ever Australians need
to expand their mindsets to the sort of deep, empathetic,
culturally-informed engagement that the study of language provides.'


Current staff at CHL include two Fukuoka Prize winners and four ARC
Laureates, the greatest concentration of such academic awards in
Australia.


A recent external review conducted by an independent panel of
international experts concluded that CHL has 'an outstanding national
and international reputation as one of the world's foremost
concentrations of scholars in humanities and interpretive social
sciences research in the Asia and Pacific regions.' The report further
noted widespread staff demoralisation.


ANU gains considerable reputational value and economic returns from
the stellar pool of academics in CHL. Yet the sole rationale for this
drastic move is the asserted need to urgently balance the School
budget. Professor Andrew Kipnis said, 'staff are baffled, how is it
that in 2013, management said CHL were comfortably in the black, and
added staff. Less than two years later we are being told we are in the
red? Originally, staff were told that changes would take three to five
years to implement. Now we are told that it will be less than a year.
In this situation, long-term planning becomes impossible.'


Cutting one third of CHL academic staff is inconsistent with the ANU
2020 strategic plan, which calls for promoting high-quality research,
increasing Higher Degree Research teaching and supervision, and
nurturing and growing core areas of international distinction.


The world class expertise in Asia and the Pacific assembled in CHL
took decades to develop. It's not too late to stop the decimation of
the School. Staff are dedicated to saving it, not just for their jobs,
but for the mission of the university and the intellectual health of
Australia.


Once it's gone, this expertise won't come back.

Upcoming Panel Discussion:

Women in Security and Peacekeeping,
Ryerson University, Toronto
December 9, 2015


The International Issues Discussion (IID) series at Ryerson University
is pleased to present its sixth and final event of the fall 2015 term,
in partnership with the NATO Association of Canada: "Women in Security
and Peacekeeping."

Our guests will be:

Colonel Jennie Carignan (MSM, CD), Commandant of Royal Military
College Saint-Jean, Quebec. Her 30-year career in the Armed Forces has
spanned multiple command and senior administrative positions including
deputy commanding officer and acting commanding officer of the Task
Force Kandahar Engineer Regiment in Afghanistan, Deputy Commander 5
Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group, troop commander in the Golan
Heights (UNDOF), chief engineer for the Multi-National Division
South-West (MND (SW)) in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and chief of staff of
Land Force Central Area/Joint Task Force Central. In December 2011,
Col. Carignan was presented the Meritorious Service Medal by the
Governor General of Canada. She has also received the Major-General
Hans Schlup Award for excellence in international relations as well as
being ranked amongst Canada's 2011 Top 100 Most Powerful Women.

Commander Michelaine Lahaie (CD), whose career with the Royal Canadian
Navy has included appointments on board HMCS PRESERVER, as underwater
warfare officer in HMCS VILLE DE QUÉBEC, and as operations officer and
combat officer in HMCS MONTREAL. In these capacities she took part in
support of UN peacekeeping efforts in Bosnia and various NATO
operations. Cdr. Lahaie's staff experience includes appointments to
the Maritime Forces Atlantic as the deputy fleet scheduling officer,
to the Canadian Forces Naval Operations School as the command control
information systems officer, and to the Royal Military College of
Canada as B Division commander. She also held senior appointments at
National Defence Headquarters in the Naval Staff, as occupation
manager for the MARS Occupation and as personnel policy section head
in the Directorate of Maritime Personnel; and in the Directorate of
Military Careers as the senior MARS career manager and later as
section head for the career management of all Naval Hard Sea
occupations and Musicians. She then commanded the Canadian Forces
Leadership and Recruit School in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec
before deployment to the Naval Staff in Ottawa and her current
position with the Joint Command and Staff Programme in Ottawa.

and

Staff Sergeant Kimberley O'Toole, Staff Sergeant with the Toronto
Police Service, currently in charge of a platoon of front line
officers at 55 Division. Staff Sgt. O'Toole is in her 21st year with
the Toronto Police Service with experience in the Homicide Squad, Sex
Crimes Unit, Professional Standards Unit and general investigative
units. She has lectured for nine years as a sessional professor in the
Justice Studies Faculty at The University of Guelph-Humber, and holds
a Master of Criminal Justice from Boston University. She has recently
begun her Professional Doctorate in Criminal Justice at the University
of Portsmouth in the United Kingdom. She is also an executive member
for the Women's Internal Support Network and the Toronto Police
Service Military Veterans Association. In 2013, Staff Sergeant O'Toole
was seconded to European Union Police Mission in Afghanistan as a RoL
expert, assigned the portfolio of mentor and advisor for Gender and
Human Rights. She worked directly with the Afghan National Police, the
Attorney General's Office and other International partners including
the Canadian Ambassador to Afghanistan. She worked to provide
strategic and specialized advice to senior officials in order to
address concerns, and develop strategies and training initiatives.
These initiatives undertook to build capacity in the elimination of
violence against women with the goal to create and sustain a more
secure environment, while recognizing and addressing human rights and
gender equality issues. In 2014, Staff Sgt. O'Toole was awarded the
Non-Article 5 NATO medal along with the EUPOL medal for her service in
Afghanistan.

This event is free for all students with ID card. Admission for the
general public is $25 and for NATO Association of Canada members, $20.

Founded in 2005, the IID is a non-partisan, student-led forum designed
to engage all members of the Ryerson University community on major
events and issues in contemporary global affairs through reasoned,
objective, and scholarly discourse.
