CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: The Latin American State

We are looking for one or two more participants for the following panel.

The Latin American State and its Agents
The papers in this panel approach the Latin American state with an
ethnographic eye, exploring the everyday practices of state agents and
a range of ways that the targets of state programs interpret them,
respond to them, and sometimes alter those projects to fit their
needs. The cases to be presented include: how public health emerged as
an arena of legitimate state activity in Ecuador, and helped make the
state seem real and effective; the ambivalent role of educators in the
context of Argentina's conditional cash transfer program.

Please contact Lindsay DuBois (Lindsay.DuBois@dal.ca) or Kim Clark
(akc@uwo.ca) as soon as possible but before Feb. 4th at the latest.

Appel CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: M=?utf-8?Q?=C3=A9tis_Acadien,_Acadien_M=C3=A9tis,_Canadien_M=C3=A9tis,_French-Indian_ou/or_Simply_M=C3=A9tis?= Tout Court? - Rappel

(Rappel/Reminder)

Métis Acadien, Acadien Métis, Canadien Métis, French-Indian ou/or
Simply Métis Tout Court?

(Français suit ci-dessous)

With the recognition of the Métis as constitutionally protected
Aboriginal peoples, the politics of identity has become increasingly
pointed in Canadian society. Claims to Métis identity are contested
both outside and within the community. This session will explore the
historical and contemporary challenges of understanding what it means
to be Métis. The goal will be to reexamine the historical records to
examine the emergence of communities identifying as "Métis" both on
the Atlantic and Pacific Regions of North America to better understand
contemporary cultural processes. Rather than presenting the emergence
of identity as a linear process that is centered in one locale, this
session will explore a process that is inherently multipolar with
various locales, seeing the emergence of Métis identity and this
identity at times being submerged before re-emerging. Thus, the goal
will be to argue for a theoretical framework that recognizes both
culture and historical complexity when in comes to Métis identities.

Avec la reconnaissance des Métis comme peuples autochtones protégés
par la Constitution de 1982, les politiques identitaires métisses
deviennent de plus en plus tendues. Les différentes identités se
voient contestées tant d'un point de vue intérieur qu'extérieur à
celles-ci. Cette session explorera les défis historiques et
contemporains au sujet de ce que signifie être « Métis. » Plus
précisément, elle réexaminera certains documents historiques afin
d'explorer l'émergence de communautés s'identifiant « Métis, » tout
particulièrement dans les régions de l'Atlantique et du Pacifique de
l'Amérique du Nord. Plutôt que de présenter l'émergence de ces
identités comme suivant un processus linéaire et géographiquement
restreint ou délimité, cette session explorera la possibilité d'un
processus d'ethnogenèses souple et multipolaire, accommodant
l'émergence de différentes identités métisses, à de maints endroits,
et selon différents processus de résurgence identitaire. L'objectif de
cette session sera d'explorer un cadre théorique capable de
reconnaître simultanément les divers aspects culturels, de même que la
complexité historique lorsqu'il s'agit des identités métisses.

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Becoming a Veteran: Investigating the Transition from Military to Civilian Life in the Canadian Context - Reminder

(Reminder/Rappel)

Becoming a Veteran: Investigating the Transition from Military to
Civilian Life in the Canadian Context

Session to be submitted for the CASCA/SANA meetings at Dalhousie
University, 11-15 May 2016
Following over a decade of constant deployment in Afghanistan
(2001-2014) by soldiers of the Canadian Armed Forces, there is a
renewed interest in how soldiers transition to civilian life after
leaving the military. The majority of the published research is based
on depersonalized and anonymous surveys, leading to policies and
programs that are based on the aggregate but applied to the
individual. This, in turn, has led to repeated criticisms from the
veterans' community that the available programs do not meet their
needs or are inaccessible. This panel seeks to explore: (1) the ways
in which veterans have navigated the available programs and supports;
(2) the ways in which solidarity thru shared identity affects the
transition from the role of soldier to that of being a veteran within
Canadian civilian society; and (3) the unique forms of interaction
with society that transitioning veterans have engaged in an attempt to
shape their new identities.

CASCA 2016 Roundtable Session: Call for Participants - Working Title: “Medical Anthropology, CIHR and SSHRC: Strategizing for Funding Inclusion in Uncertain Times.” - Reminder/Rappel

Reminder

CASCA 2016 Roundtable Session: Call for Participants

Working Title: "Medical Anthropology, CIHR and SSHRC: Strategizing for
Funding Inclusion in Uncertain Times."

Organizer:

Emma Varley, Chair of the Canadian Medical Anthropology Network
(CMA)

Assistant Professor, Brandon University

varleye@brandonu.ca

*Roundtable Abstract and Goals*

Changes to national funding landscapes, evolving institutional objectives
and shifting donor agency priority research areas have had significant and
sometimes damaging impacts on the nature, scope and methods of our medical
anthropology studies and inquiry both in Canada and internationally. In
response, this roundtable revisits the Canadian Medical Anthropology
Network's 2011 manifesto, "The End of Medical Anthropology in Canada?",
which issued an urgent call for renewed dialogue and activism around
medical anthropologists' ability to be funded by SSRHC and CIHR (
http://www.universityaffairs.ca/opinion/in-my-opinion/the-end-of-medical-anthorpology-in-canada/).

Reduced funding for medical anthropology research has impacted the scope of
our work and the ways we share our findings with diverse audiences,
beneficiaries and stakeholders. In turn, the pressures placed on medical
anthropologists to 'fit' into SSHRC and CIHR eligibility criteria push us
to cloak our research either in the non-health terms asked by SSHRC, or
subordinate it to the public health and medicine approaches preferred by
CIHR.

How do these changes and pressures affect our discipline's role in Canadian
academic and applied health settings? What do anthropologists do to ensure
anthropological approaches become more central to expanded public health
research and interventions at national and global levels?

Medical anthropologists active within and beyond academia are invited to
share their experiences of these changes, the strategies they use to
navigate diminished national research funding opportunities, and their
thoughts on where the Canadian Medical Anthropology Network (CMA) should go
next with its networking, activism and mobilization, especially as new
opportunities for disciplinary advocacy arise in a post-Harper era.

Interested medical anthropologists are warmly encouraged to join the
roundtable to talk about their experiences with one or more of the
following issues:

- *Our positioning betwixt and between the social and health sciences:*
How do we qualify our work according to public health and health science
approaches, evidentiary expectations, methods and metrics? In
what ways do
public health concerns or interventions require our creative response?
- *Our navigations and negotiations of CIHR and SSHRC funding criteria,
priority areas, and regulations:* How do we explain the importance of
anthropological methods and evidence for health research, or
for policy and
programming? How can we insert deep forms of critical inquiry and
engagement into the health research approaches preferred by CIHR, or the
'non-health' social science approaches emphasized by SSHRC? How do we
navigate CIHR concerns for our 'productivity', particularly as
it compares
with public health outputs?
- *Our retooling of medical anthropological language and methods in
clinical medical and public health terms:* How do we draw on
interdisciplinary language and approaches to 'win over' grant
reviewers, or
convince them of the merits of an anthropological approach?
What kinds of
methods, theory and evidence 'count' in order for our work to
be considered
fundable? How do CIHR and SSHRC funding criteria lead some applicants to
tactically sublimate the anthropology focus of their work? How do these
concessions impact our research once it is funded?
- *The impacts of the mixed-methods and positivist interdisciplinary
approaches on the perceived usefulness, quality, effectiveness and
'worthiness' of medical anthropological research approaches:* In which
ways can we seize on and reconfigure these preferred methodologies in
anthropological terms and capture 'better' evidence, or produce more
'successful' results? How do we draw on the strengths of
interdisciplinary
research, or communicate our concerns about its drawbacks?
- *If not CIHR or SSHRC, then what? *Which other funding bodies,
agencies and opportunities support our work? How is our work
affected when
we seek funds from private or non-governmental sectors, or from outside
Canada altogether?

The results of this roundtable will guide future advocacy and activism by
the Canadian Medical Anthropology Network in the following areas:

- Medical anthropology's inclusion in CIHR's Research Pillars and
SSHRC's Future Challenge Areas, expanded funding for non-medical,
health-focused studies by medical anthropologists, and ensuring that our
work is evaluated on anthropological terms.
- Strengthening the CMA as a forum for the development of stronger
intra-professional alliances among medical anthropologists – scholars,
students and practitioners alike.

Interested participants are asked to share their institutional affiliation,
contact information and a 200-word abstract concerning their proposed
discussion topic/s with the roundtable organizer by Sunday, January 31,
2016.

(Reminder/Rappel)

CFP for SANA CASCA Panel

(Far from) Simple Solidarities, Complex Coalitions: Unexpected Politics in
Troubled Times and Places

For more information contact Sandra Morgen (smorgen@uoregon.edu) OR Kathleen
Piovesan (piovesan@uoregon.edu) or Gennie Nguyen (gnguyen@uoregon.edu)

Politics often produces unexpected alliances and oppositions, especially in
local struggles over resources and investments. Sometimes long-standing
political enemies join forces. Sometimes long-standing allies splinter or fail
to support groups with whom they have espoused solidarity or shared interest.
Solidarity is rarely simple and surprising coalitions can emerge that disrupt,
but also can reinforce, existing political alignments. This session examines
the locally politically unexpected, documenting it, analyzing its genesis
and/or consequences, and using these examples to problematize anthropological
engagements theoretical and otherwise with solidarity. Papers include case
studies about tax politics, housing, and community development. We invite
others whose research could contribute to consideration of these questions.

Rappel - CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Les échelles de solidarité : Engagement et recherche en Acadie et milieu francophone minoritaire

(Rappel - Reminder)

Les échelles de solidarité : Engagement et recherche en Acadie et
milieu francophone minoritaire

Qu'en est-il de la solidarité en recherche? Quels sont les enjeux liés
à la proximité et à la distance vis-à-vis des milieux étudiés,
notamment en Acadie et dans les autres francophonies canadiennes en
milieu minoritaire?
Faire de la recherche sur les francophones vivant en milieu
minoritaire, est-ce nécessairement faire de la recherche engagée? La
tenue du congrès à Halifax servira de prétexte pour inviter à une
réflexion sur les postures du chercheur.e en Acadie en tenant compte
des échelles du terrain, des définitions diverses de l'Acadie et des
différentes méthodes. Les réflexions sur d'autres aires du Canada
francophone ou d'ailleurs sont également les bienvenues. Ces
interrogations sont plus que jamais de mise, car les communautés
comprennent qu'elles doivent forger divers types de solidarités, que
ce soit avec le groupe majoritaire, les communautés autochtones ou les
nouveaux arrivants francophones et francophiles, ainsi qu'à
l'intérieur même du noyau familial dans les familles exogames. La
présentation de travaux portant sur ces processus serait également
pertinente à cette table ronde.

(Reminder-Rappel)

CASCA 2016-Halifax
Language and Technology: Usage, Interaction, and Change
Organizers: Alexis Black and Christine Jourdan (Concordia University)

Language and technology have been intimately linked through the
materiality of linguistic practice (e.g. stylus, pen and paper,
telephones, social media) and the cognitive and emotive effects of
language use. This panel will engage with technology as a mediator
for language use from an anthropological perspective. It will explore
how people use language through technologies and how languages and
technologies interact. Pertinent questions for examination could
include how technology affects language use, how language is
constrained or nourished by technology and the relationship between
technology and language in practice and cognition.

This panel is sponsored by CASCA'S LingAnthLing interest group.
Subjects may include research into language creation to accompany
emerging technologies (e.g. the creation of new metaphors or
terminologies to support communication of new technological
realities), the particular challenges posed by attempts to create
technologies that can respond to and mimic natural human language
(e.g. problems in AI research to create 'talking' machines), or
ethnographic or discursive study of changing patterns and functions in
everyday language in tandem with changing technologies (e.g. text
messaging and social media as the locus of new linguistic products and
practices).

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

(Reminder/Rappel)

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 27, 2016.

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Infrastructures:Materializing Publics and Persons in Colonial and Postcolonial Contexts - Reminder

(Reminder/Rappel)

Infrastructures: Materializing Publics and Persons in Colonial and
Postcolonial Contexts

Jean Mitchell, University of Prince Edward Island
Sandra Widmer, York University

There is growing interest among anthropologists in examining the
socialities, effects and affects of infrastructure(s). Their
material-semiotics engage environments, persons, technologies and
objects that shape everyday lives. Infrastructures can be sites of
nation-building that offer possibilities for citizenship in contexts
of colonial and postcolonial governance. Promises of infrastructure
enroll people in particular forms of politics aimed at better futures
(Hetherington 2014). Infrastructures also chart the changing relations
of power with "the thinning of the state" in neoliberalism (Allison
and Piot 2012). This panel explores infrastructures as ways of
understanding postcolonial social formations and forms of economic
distribution. You are invited to consider how infrastructures both
connect and fragment social worlds in colonial and postcolonial
contexts. Papers could consider topics such as: Public/private
infrastructures; Food systems; Medical care; Emergency preparedness;
Public health surveillance; Cell phone infrastructures;
Indigenous/state relationships, Energy conflicts.
Please send abstracts to mjmitchell@upei and swidmer@yorku.ca by January 31.

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: The power and place of the gift in contemporary solidarities - Reminder

Reminder/Rappel

The power and place of the gift in contemporary solidarities

Call for Papers

Solidarities CASCA 2016

Marcel Mauss' conceptualization of the gift offers an alternative to
understanding (non)market exchange through the economic lens of individual,
rational actors. Reminding us that transactions of giving and receiving are
imbued with morality, Mauss demonstrates that the gift functions to
establish solidarity and maintain long-term social relations. Recent
ethnographic research has extended the topical currency of this analytic by
following the exchange of a wide range of items and encounters framed as
gifts across contemporary social and geopolitical boundaries. Relationships
of reciprocity developed through current forms of gift exchange – such as
state-run conditional cash transfer programs, or volunteer-run social
programs that fill the gaps left by a shrinking welfare state – ask us to
consider the nature of these solidarities. This panel explores how this
anthropological concept of long durée may help us to understand
contemporary solidarities in local communities, state-citizen exchanges,
and beyond.

We invite papers that investigate these relationships and transactions
through the analytical lens of the gift. Prospective panelists may wish to
consider:

- how social actors negotiate or frame these gifting relationships, and/or
how such relationships and exchanges are framed as gifting;

- how participation in these relationships frames or situates these
subjects in the community through the creation of alliances and affinities;

- how different interests are served and solidarities forged through the
establishment of gifting relationships;

- how the gift may be used to understand morality in the context of
globalization and/or neoliberalism.

If interested, please send paper title and your abstract (150 words) to
Rhiannon Mosher rhmosher@yorku.ca and Chantelle Falconer
chantelle.leblanc@utoronto.ca by January 29, 2016. We will begin reviewing
abstracts as they are submitted. Thank you for your interest.

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Para-ethnography: a method for decolonizing Anthropology? - Reminder

Reminder/Rappel

Para-ethnography: a method for decolonizing Anthropology?

I write to share the Call for Papers for a roundtable session at the
2016 CASCA conference in Halifax, May 11-15th.

This roundtable will consider the following question: what are the
benefits of stepping outside of the traditional methodological
toolkit, particularly when working with community groups involving
Indigenous people? Our central focus will be on para-ethnography, or
the positioning of participants as experts in their own right, as a
methodological framework for reconciliation work. While traditional
methods have been criticized for reproducing colonial practices, the
papers discussed here will address this call for decolonization by
considering alternative methods. Although not limited to these, we are
particularly interested in: participatory action research,
child-centred action research, and digital and visual methods.
Attention to how an emphasis on methods can foster reconciliation and
solidarity between academics and community groups is encouraged.

This panel will bring together 3-4 scholars. Each participant will
speak about their research for twenty minutes, and the roundtable will
conclude with a lively discussion between participants and the audience.

If you are interested in participating, please submit a one-page cv
and a brief description of your proposed research talk (approximately
100 words) to Dr. Erin Spring (erin.spring@uleth.ca) by February 1st,
2015.

Dr. Adam Gaudry (Assistant Professor, University of Saskatchewan) — "The
people who owned the North-West Territories:" Respect, nationhood, and the
western origins of the Métis people

*Wednesday, February 3rd, 6:30pm-8:30pm, Halifax Central Library*

Have you ever wondered who the Métis people are? Did the Crown sign
treaties with the Métis? What is the difference between the Métis as a
people, and métis as a term denoting mixed-racedness?

Come on out to this event, which promises to be thought-provoking and
engaging.

Dr. Adam Gaudry's research explores nineteenth-century Métis political
thought, the formation of a Métis treaty-relationship with Canada in 1870,
and the subsequent non-implementation of that agreement. This project
argues the existence of a "Manitoba treaty" between the Métis people and
Canada necessitates the maintenance of a respectful and bilateral political
relationship between the treaty partners.

(Français suit ci-dessous)

With the recognition of the Métis as constitutionally protected
Aboriginal peoples, the politics of identity has become increasingly
pointed in Canadian society. Claims to Métis identity are contested
both outside and within the community. This session will explore the
historical and contemporary challenges of understanding what it means
to be Métis. The goal will be to reexamine the historical records to
examine the emergence of communities identifying as "Métis" both on
the Atlantic and Pacific Regions of North America to better understand
contemporary cultural processes. Rather than presenting the emergence
of identity as a linear process that is centered in one locale, this
session will explore a process that is inherently multipolar with
various locales, seeing the emergence of Métis identity and this
identity at times being submerged before re-emerging. Thus, the goal
will be to argue for a theoretical framework that recognizes both
culture and historical complexity when in comes to Métis identities.

Avec la reconnaissance des Métis comme peuples autochtones protégés
par la Constitution de 1982, les politiques identitaires métisses
deviennent de plus en plus tendues. Les différentes identités se
voient contestées tant d'un point de vue intérieur qu'extérieur à
celles-ci. Cette session explorera les défis historiques et
contemporains au sujet de ce que signifie être « Métis. » Plus
précisément, elle réexaminera certains documents historiques afin
d'explorer l'émergence de communautés s'identifiant « Métis, » tout
particulièrement dans les régions de l'Atlantique et du Pacifique de
l'Amérique du Nord. Plutôt que de présenter l'émergence de ces
identités comme suivant un processus linéaire et géographiquement
restreint ou délimité, cette session explorera la possibilité d'un
processus d'ethnogenèses souple et multipolaire, accommodant
l'émergence de différentes identités métisses, à de maints endroits,
et selon différents processus de résurgence identitaire. L'objectif de
cette session sera d'explorer un cadre théorique capable de
reconnaître simultanément les divers aspects culturels, de même que la
complexité historique lorsqu'il s'agit des identités métisses.

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: Solidarity in Oral History and Anthropology - Reminder

Reminder/Rappel

Call for Participants: Roundtable on Solidarity in Oral History and
Anthropology

Anthropology and oral history have distinct and powerful ethical
guidelines. In oral history, the co-authored interview is itself the
foundational product of the research relationship. Building on as
assumption of shared authority, oral historians negotiate agreements with
their narrators to make these interviews public, using their real names, in
archives. The narrator retains the right to retract their interview at any
time, and often remains involved in the process of analysis, editing, and
public presentation. In anthropology, the published product(s) of the
research is often the only public artifact of the research relationship,
and it is typical to obscure the identities of participants and places.

As politically engaged scholars and activist researchers working at the
intersections of these two practices, we have struggled to define
solidarity and balance the sometimes conflicting demands of solidarity with
different groups: co-researchers, colleagues, individual narrators, and the
broader communities in which we work. In this roundtable session we will
ask what is generated by the productive tensions between the ethics of oral
history and anthropology.

If interested, please contact Amy Starecheski (aas39@columbia.edu) and Joey
Plaster (joseph.plaster@yale.edu) with a brief statement of interest by
January 25, 2015.

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

CASCA/SANA2016 panel CFP: 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.
