    Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Chair Ann Anagnost Stevan Harrell Danny Hoffman Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2018 Darren T. Byler University of Washington Abstract Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies This study argues that Uyghurs, a Turkic-Muslim group in contemporary Northwest China, and the city of Ürümchi have become the object of what the study names “terror capitalism.” This argument is supported by evidence of both the way state-directed economic investment and security infrastructures (pass-book systems, webs of technological surveillance, urban cleansing processes and mass internment camps) have shaped self-representation among Uyghur migrants and Han settlers in the city. It analyzes these human engineering and urban planning projects and the way their effects are contested in new media, film, television, photography and literature. It finds that this form of capitalist production utilizes the discourse of terror to justify state investment in a wide array of policing and social engineering systems that employs millions of state security workers. The project also presents a theoretical model for understanding how Uyghurs use cultural production to both build and refuse the development of this new economic formation and accompanying forms of gendered, ethno-racial violence.

  • Collectiones Museorum Manuscripta Castreniana Realia II, Ethnographica 1 Travaux Ethnographiques De La Société Finno-Ougrienne XXII
    Matthias Alexander Castrén Matthias Alexander Matt hias Alexander Castrén (1813–1852) was by far the most signifi cant Finn- ish linguist of the 19th century. In addition to being a linguist he was also a multidisciplinary scholar, equally versatile in the fi elds of ethnography, folklore, mythology, archaeology, history, and human geography. He left behind a huge corpus of fi eld data, collected by himself during prolonged expeditions to Kare- lia, Lapland, Arctic Russia, and Siberia between 1838 and 1849. In the short peri- ods of time Castrén spent in an academic environment, he had litt le opportunity to synthesize his collections, a situation aggravated by his rapidly progressing and ultimately fatal illness. Th erefore, a major part of his scholarly heritage re- mained unpublished when he died. Castrén was appointed Docent of Finnish and Ancient Nordic Languages and Tribes at the Imperial Alexander University in Helsinki in 1841, and ten years later he became the fi rst Professor of the Finnish Language. M.A. Castrén considered ethnology as a historical science and an instru- ment for describing the early periods of Finnish history. On his expeditions, he carried out ethnographic observations and took notes of the dwellings, cos- tumes, way of life, and customs of indigenous Siberian peoples. According to the programme draft ed by the Imperial Saint Petersburg Academy of Sciences, Collectiones museorum Castrén collected ethnological artifacts for the Ethnographic Museum in Saint Petersburg, and some items for the Ethnographic Museum of the University of Helsinki. Th e present work concentrates on the collections which describe Castrén’s merits in ethnological studies and museology.

    Reading in a Foreign Language April 2012, Volume 24, No. 1 ISSN 1539-0578 pp. 124–129 Reviewed work: Manchu: A Textbook for Reading Documents (2nd ed.). (2010). Gertrude Roth Li. University of Hawai‘i Press. Pp. 419+xi. ISBN: 9780980045956. (paperback) $36.00. Reviewed by Liliya M. Gorelova Institute for Oriental Studies Russian Academy of Sciences Russia; University of Auckland New Zealand http://nflrc.hawaii.edu The first edition of the Textbook for reading Manchu documents in English by Dr. Gertraude Roth Li was long overdue. Indeed, the previous Manchu textbook in English was written by von P.G. Möllendorf in 1892; since then Manchu Studies have advanced significantly, but no new textbooks in English have appeared. In the last century, however, the extralinguistic situation changed radically. The Manchu language—with several exceptions—went out of use, and only a handful of specialists worldwide can now read and translate original Manchu documents written in Classical (Standard) Manchu. Even fewer, and these few include Dr. Roth Li, can understand texts written in Old Manchu, which is based on the Mongolian syllabic alphabet. Most of the pre- 1644 Manchu documents were written in this old script, which was in use until the Manchu scholar Dahai essentially improved it. With the help of special diacritic signs, dots and circles, Dahai (1632) encoded every Manchu sound by a separate letter. Dr. Roth Li is a leading expert in both versions of Manchu, her English translations from Manchu are precise and her explanations comprehensive. As is well-known, the Manchu Qing dynasty—after ruling China for more than 250 years (1644– 1911)—left numerous official documents that can shed light on the history of China, the relations of this long-lived state with other nations and regions, and the history of Central and Eastern Asia in general.
