Politik Und Recht Ablaufplan Politik und Recht Vorlesung: Do 10.15-12.00 Dr. Patrice Ladwig Wie laufen politische Prozesse in akephalen Gesellschaften ab, die außerhalb oder am Rande von zentralisierten Staatsgebilden leben? Wie werden Gesetz und Recht konzeptualisiert, wenn es keine Schriftkultur gibt? Welche Rolle können ethnologische Ansätze bei der Erforschung von Staaten, Bürokratien und ihren Machtapparaten spielen? Diese Einführung skizziert das politische Feld im Spannungsbogen von Gesellschaften ohne Staat und neoliberaler Moderne. Im Fokus stehen dabei Begriffe wie Macht, Hegemonie, regulierte Anarchie, Disziplinierung, Biopolitik, Staatsgewalt und Widerstand. Die Vorlesung führt zuerst in einige Hauptstudien der politischen Anthropologie ein (Fortes & Evans-Pritchard, Leach, Clastres) und konzentriert sich dabei auf Macht-, Entscheidungs- und Widerstandsstrukturen in Gesellschaften ohne modernen Staatsapparat. Im Weiteren wird dann diskutiert, inwieweit die Bildung von expansiven politischen Einheiten an neue Ideen und Praktiken des Regierens, der Disziplinierung und der Biopolitik gekoppelt ist (Foucault, Mitchell). Abschließend sollen aktuelle ethnologische Diskussion zur Relevanz von ‚Anarchie’ (Graeber, Sigrist & Kramer) als alternative Gesellschafts- und Widerstandsform kritisch referiert werden.

  • The Politics of Fantasy
    Kohl: a Journal for Body and Gender Research Vol. 3, No. 2 (Winter 2017) The Politics of Fantasy Jaya Sharma The Politics of Fantasy Fantasies that don’t sit so well with our politics, and yet here they are. Might this uncomfortable place 139 where our fantasies and our politics seem to collide also be a productive one, precisely because it is uncomfortable. This is the question I would like to explore here. I write as a queer, kinky, feminist activist from within the women’s movement in India. It is perhaps because of this location that I feel I am able to be part of the tradition of women’s movement, at least here in India, and to be self-critical, often to the point of being overly critical of ourselves. The way I am using the word fantasy is in terms of an expression or enactment of desire. And while we are all familiar with the concept of desire in its most overt form of sexual fantasies or imagined sexual scenarios, I believe that desire, and by implication, fantasy, also underpin our relation to reality in virtually every other domain of life – from relationships to career choices, from ideology to politics. I would like to begin with sexual fantasies and later move to fantasy as a dimension of other aspects of life. A feminist friend whom I interviewed for a piece I was writing on porn told me about her porn-watching experience one night. The porn that she found herself looking for was very specific. It was about incest involving daughter and parents.

  • Iconographies of Urban Masculinity: Reading “Flex Boards” in an Indian City
    Iconographies of Urban Masculinity: Reading “Flex Boards” in an Indian City By Madhura Lohokare, Shiv Nadar University Asia Pacific Perspectives v15n1. Online Article Introduction On an unusually warm evening in early May of 2012 I rode my scooter along the congested lanes of Moti Peth1 on my way to “Shelar galli,2” a working-class neighborhood in the western Indian city of Pune, where I had been conducting my doctoral field research for the preceding fifteen months. As I parked my scooter at one end of the small stretch of road that formed the axis of the neighborhood, it was impossible to miss a thirty-foot-tall billboard looming above the narrow lane at its other end. I was, by now, familiar with the presence of “flex” boards, as they were popularly known, as these boards crowded the city’s visual and material landscape. However, the flex board in Shelar galli that evening was striking, given its sheer size and the way in which it seemed to dwarf the neighborhood with its height (see figure 1.1). Figure 1.1 Flex board marking the occasion of Mohanlal’s birthday, erected in Shelar Galli, Pune (Photo by author) The image of Mohanlal Shitole, a resident of Shelar galli, dressed in a bright red turban and a starched white shirt, with a thick gold bracelet resting on his wrist, stood along the entire length of the flex making it seem like he was towering above the narrow lane itself. The rest of the space was dotted with faces of a host of local politicians (all men, barring one woman councilor) and (male) residents of the neighborhood, on whose behalf collective birthday greetings for Mohanlal were printed on top of the flex.

The point is supported by evidence drawn from a number of different contexts, such as the divergent concerns of different social groups involved in the development of akhara culture (pp. 226-27) and the development of festivals such as the Ramlila, not as sites of community affirmation, but precisely as sites of contestation among groups within that imputed community. As Gooptu states, the urban Ramlila emerged as "multi-vocal, registering varied levels of social construction of meaning" (p. 237). As with most classic works of history, at the heart of this book is a meticulous approach to the historian's craft. Several years of zealous archival work have furnished Gooptu with some fascinating primary material on which to build. This material ranges from official publications and documents to vernacular newspapers, locally produced pamphlets, and interviews with key individuals.

    MAKING SENSE OF THE BIOSCOPE: THE EXPERIENCE OF CINEMAS IN TWENTIETH CENTURY CAPE TOWN Fernanda Pinto de Almeida A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor Philosophiae in the Department of History, University of the Western Cape. Supervisor: Professor Premesh Lalu April 2020 http://etd.uwc.ac.za/ Keywords Cinema Bioscope Aesthetics Architecture Interior Apartheid Segregation Cape Town Mass media Mass publics Senses http://etd.uwc.ac.za/ ii Abstract Making sense of the bioscope: The experience of cinemas in twentieth century Cape Town. Pinto de Almeida, Fernanda. PhD Thesis, Department of History, University of the Western Cape, 2019. In my thesis I focus on Cape Town’s imaginary of cinemas – popularly called bioscopes – within a larger historical approach to temporary film halls, picture palaces, atmospherics and drive-ins. My inquiry includes both conceptual and institutional lenses to show how cinema houses enabled particular affects, eschewed bureaucratic restrictions and questioned political authority over public spaces. I ask specifically: how did cinema help to forge audiences and political sentiment by mobilizing the senses? How was the public threat posed by so-called ‘flea-pit’ film halls of early twentieth century seemingly appeased by the private promise of the multiplex rooms in suburban enclosures? For this purpose, I examine the appeal of early twentieth century cinemas alongside their impact in the city’s geography and incipient public sphere to argue that cinema promoted a collective form of experience that bypassed both segregationist and liberal policies of governance. From the period of the Union’s control of leisure venues in the 1910s to the end of Apartheid’s Separate Amenities Act in the late 1980’s, cinemas in South Africa attracted audiences across racial ‘communities’, eluded market and government spatial limitations, and helped to redefine public reception of mass media.

Book Project: “The Four Indias: The Social Origins of Underdevelopment in the Post-Colonial World” This project examines why some regions of India have dramatically different development policies from others, despite very similar formal institutions. It develops a typology of Indian regions, showing that they are divided not between “good performers” and “bad performers” but between different sets of policy goals. It shows that this variation is a product of the relative distribution of three important sources of social power—Land, education and group numbers—with groups that benefit from multiple sources of inequality being able to influence policy to favor their group.

  • Sovereigns Beyond the State: on Legality and Authority in Urban India
    Sovereigns beyond the State: On Legality and Authority in Urban India Thomas Blom Hansen “Legal consciousness,” the awareness of rights and the use of litigation, have for decades been integral parts of everyday life of millions of peo- ple across India. Yet, events over the past decade suggest that the awe of the law in India, and its corollary, the sovereignty of the state, are in sharp decline. Successive governments seem unable to curb, or pre- vent, clashes between religious communities and attacks on minority communities in the country; the police force is widely regarded as bru- tal and incompetent; a large number of crimes and murders are never reported or investigated; the courts are overburdened and ineffective with conviction rates below ten per cent; political parties, movements and criminal rackets routinely subvert the law, commit crimes with im- punity, and so on. In his study of communal violence and social order in North India, Paul Brass points out that the state and the police force, are not seen as constituting public resources enforcing impartial justice. The use of courts and litigation is but one among several means in the battle over authority and resources in the North Indian countryside where “. the use of force and violence is, if not routine, at least not something unex- pected or exceptional” (Brass 1997, 275). The disregard of rules, the ex- pectation of being able to “fix things” by pulling a few strings, or by merely asserting one’s importance, education and command of English vis-à-vis poorly educated policemen and officials are practices at the heart of the Indian middle-class world.

Further, the analysis examines the means by which these techniques located the ANC at the centre of liberation and post-independent political narratives and explores and posits a basis for understanding the behaviour of the ANC and leading actors in the political sphere.
