The EASA has come a long way since a small group of thoughtful, committed anthropologists (to paraphrase Margaret Mead) came together in Castel Gandolfo in 1989, deciding to form a European association bridging national differences and facilitating new forms of intellectual synergies and collaborations. While initially focusing on boundaries of the north–south kind, or perhaps Germanic– Romance divides, the east–west dimension almost immediately became a major concern for the new association, the end of state socialism in Central and Eastern Europe coinciding almost to a day with the formation of EASA. 27 years on, we have come a long way in using EASA and its currently 29 specialised networks to build connections, collaborations, dialogue and mutual enrichment across borders which would have been more visible and less permeable without EASA. We have done so through ‘the organisation of diversity’ rather than ‘the replication of homogeneity’ (to quote Anthony Wallace’s view of culture). After all, we’re anthropologists. Today, anthropology is faced with numerous challenges, both internal and external. On the one hand, we are fighting against downsizing, reduced research funding and a modest public visibility in most countries. On the other hand, there is a strong enthusiasm across the continent for what we do, and not just among ‘a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens’. Interest in this EASA conference has been spectacular, and we regret not having been able to accommodate more of the proposed panels. We are nevertheless proud of the overall quality of the programme, and in addition to panels and plenaries, we have a great audiovisual programme showcasing different formats rather than just a film stream; we continue the previous success with labs; and there are many other events worth attending, from book launches to network meetings.

However, with recent and increasing recognition of indigenous people’s rights challenging the concepts at the heart of human rights theory, a new light from which to look at mobilizing the law has emerged. This paper examines the mobilization of law within and between two spheres: international norms and their domestic implementing legislation, and the local setting in the communities of the Mapuche indigenous people in southern Argentina.

The Holocaust Museum along with the Anne Frank Haus spoke to me; the stories behind the lives of these beautiful people subjected to nothing but hate for who they loved and who they were.

  • Narrative Reform Dilemmas
    Narrative Reform Dilemmas Mariela Olivares* I. INTRODUCTION The way in which we tell our stories and describe our characters sets the foundation for how our audience perceives the story. Depending on the narra- tor’s choices, our protagonist may be a hero against the wrongs of an unjust authoritarian system – or a terrorist working against a legitimate government. Nelson Mandela, even as a former President of South Africa, was on a U.S. government terror watch list until as late as 2008 and could not enter the coun- try without a dispensation of U.S. immigration policies.1 The U.S. government prohibited his entry as a communist sympathizer who fought against the once- recognized South African leadership.2 Only with the wisdom of time and po- litical awakening did the world fully recognize that Mandela fought for free- dom against the apartheid regime and that his resistance against the govern- ment was just. Prior to this realization, however, Mandela was characterized in many popular media outlets of the time as a communist and terrorist leader of the revolutionary African National Congress (“ANC”) South African party.3 Though the passage of time may influence narrative choices, changes in rhetoric can have concomitant influence on political movements. For example, *Associate Professor of Law, Howard University School of Law; LL.M., Georgetown University Law Center; J.D., University of Michigan Law School; B.A., University of Texas at Austin. I am very grateful for the thoughtful and insightful comments of Stew- art Chang, Kevin R.
