It explores the construction of sociology as a field of knowledge, academic discipline and professional practice in Kyrgyzstan (formerly the Kirgiz Soviet Socialist Republic) from 1966 to 2003, focusing on the late and post-socialist project to transform sociology from a heteronomous to autonomous field of knowledge and practice. It draws especially on the sociology of knowledge and science to explore the localised processes through which social scientific knowledge and political power have been co-constituted on the imperial periphery. -

Ungovernability and Material Life in Urban South Africa
“WHERE THERE IS FIRE, THERE IS POLITICS”: Ungovernability and Material Life in Urban South Africa KERRY RYAN CHANCE Harvard University Together, hand in hand, with our boxes of matches . we shall liberate this country. —Winnie Mandela, 1986 Faku and I stood surrounded by billowing smoke. In the shack settlement of Slovo Road,1 on the outskirts of the South African port city of Durban, flames flickered between piles of debris, which the day before had been wood-plank and plastic tarpaulin walls. The conflagration began early in the morning. Within hours, before the arrival of fire trucks or ambulances, the two thousand house- holds that comprised the settlement as we knew it had burnt to the ground. On a hillcrest in Slovo, Abahlali baseMjondolo (an isiZulu phrase meaning “residents of the shacks”) was gathered in a mass meeting. Slovo was a founding settlement of Abahlali, a leading poor people’s movement that emerged from a burning road blockade during protests in 2005. In part, the meeting was to mourn. Five people had been found dead that day in the remains, including Faku’s neighbor. “Where there is fire, there is politics,” Faku said to me. This fire, like others before, had been covered by the local press and radio, some journalists having been notified by Abahlali via text message and online press release. The Red Cross soon set up a makeshift soup kitchen, and the city government provided emergency shelter in the form of a large, brightly striped communal tent.

In his lucid and wide-ranging 2013 review of Slavic studies in the UK, J. A. Dunn reflects that “there can be no subject area in the UK higher education system that has been subject to more reviews since the end of the Second World War than Slavonic and East European Studies” (Dunn 13). He offers three reasons for this abundance of surveys: first, the strategic significance of the field (especially during the Cold War); second, an unfortunate short- termism on the part of the Higher Education authorities who commissioned these reports but failed to act consistently on their recommendations; and third, Slavic studies’ chronic failure to thrive without substantial state invest- ment. Perhaps the most significant of the five state-commissioned reports listed by Dunn was the 1961 Hayter report, with its recommendation for the establishment of five centers of excellence: [I]n 1961, Sir William Hayter (former British ambassador to the USSR, 1953–57) produced a government report on Area Studies in the Oriental, African, Eastern European and Slavonic regions, which recommended the establishment or consolidation of five centres of excellence in Soviet and East European area studies at the universities of Birmingham, Glasgow, Oxford, Swansea and London (at SSEES). -

Contemporary TRANSFORMATIONS of ETHNOLOGY/ANTHROPOLOGY in RUSSIA: an Invitation to Further Discussion
https://doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2017.70.discussion DISCUSSION CONTEMPORARY TRANSFORMATIONS OF ETHNOLOGY/ANTHROPOLOGY IN RUSSIA: AN INVITATION TO FURTHER DISCUSSION Dmitriy Funk Professor and Chair, Department of Ethnology, Moscow State University Chief Researcher, Tomsk State University, Russia e-mail: [email protected] Irina Nam Professor, Department of Russian History Head of the Laboratory for Social and Anthropological Research Tomsk State University, Russia e-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTORY REMARKS Exactly two years ago, in the 63rd volume of Folklore: Electronic Journal of Folklore, our colleagues Aimar Ventsel and Natalia Struchkova published their reflection on some of the many problems that exist in the post-Soviet academic anthropology – among them the problem of relationships between academic traditions and academic writing culture (Ventsel & Struchkova 2016: 121–126). Here we would like to continue this discussion and elaborate on a few other issues which are, in our view, characteristic of anthropology in Russia in the first place but also in other countries of the post-Soviet space.1 The breakaway from old paradigms of Soviet/Russian ethnography and its academic language coincided in time with the dissolution of the USSR and was unambiguously marked within the discipline by renaming of the main and, in fact, only ethnographic academic journal available at that time: in 1992, Etnograficheskoe obozrenie (Ethnographic Review) replaced Sovetskaia etnografiia (Soviet Ethnography). Coincidentally or not, the new title alluded to the possibility of the continued presence of ethnography in post-Soviet Rus- sia, with an indispensable return to the evolutionary paradigm that existed a hundred years ago (Etnograficheskoe obozrenie had already been issued in Russia in the period from 1889 to 1916). -
