That is to say, the research outlined in this report demonstrates a lot of continuity with the themes documented in the last such report, compiled three years ago. The major change is that we no longer have a sub-group in the field of historical anthropology.1 The sections devoted to the Visegrád Anthropologists’ Network and to our collaboration with Cambridge (Max-Cam) present new initiatives that were announced in the last report. They constitute extensions of a research profile developed cumulatively over many years, rather than transformations. Continuity is also apparent in research leadership and hence in the authorship of the sections that follow. Christoph Brumann, Kirsten Endres and Lale Yalçın-Heckmann have shared responsibilities with me over the last decade. Sascha Roth has continued in post as the dedicated coordinator of our graduate school, ANARCHIE. The most notable change this year is the inclusion in our report of Max Planck Fellow Burkhard Schnepel’s account of the accomplishments of his group, Con- nectivity in Motion: Port Cities of the Indian Ocean. Max Planck Fellows are not affiliated to departments and Burkhard has always gone out of his way to open up his programme to the entire institute. However, it makes good sense intellectually to include his project alongside our own, since his vision of maritime connectivity in the Indian Ocean world complements our interest in terrestrial links across Europe and Asia over the centuries. In recent years Iain Walker, a senior researcher work- ing with Burkhard for many years, has participated regularly in the seminars of our department. Moreover Burkhard himself has been active in teaching and supervision for our graduate school ANARCHIE. In sum, he has been a valued colleague and friend of the department for almost two decades: his commitment to the discipline and service to our faculty at the Martin Luther University are second to none. This report is devoted to our research. It does not elaborate on the many ways in which department members contribute to the intellectual community at our institute, cooperate with our university colleagues and other local institutions, or engage in outreach to our Kuratorium and a wider public (we were, for example, very active in the programme offered by the institute to mark the first Max Planck Day in Sep- tember 2018). Nor can we elaborate here on our international scholarly networking. Our annual Goody Lecture plays an important role in this respect: details of the 1 After a very productive career in the Max Planck Society that began at the Institute for Demographic Research in Rostock, Mikołaj Szołtysek returned in 2017 to his native Poland as a POLONEZ Fellow at the Institute of History at the University of Warsaw. Dittmar Schorkowitz is still based at this Institute; he is now affiliated to the Department of Law and Anthropology. vi Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology lectures given by Nur Yalman (Harvard University), Sylvia Yanagisako (Stanford University) and Carola Lentz (Mainz University) can be found in Part IX. Stephen Levinson (Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen) was scheduled to deliver the 10th Goody Lecture on 28 May 2020. Alas, as we finalise this report in April, due to the Covid-19 pandemic we have been obliged to postpone this event. The Goody Lecture for 2021 will be delivered on 24 June by our colleague Thomas Hylland Eriksen (University of Oslo). Thomas has been a close associate of the department from its earliest days. His appointment in 2017 as an External Scientific Member of this institute is the absolute highlight of the present reporting period. Other milestones of the last three years include the following: • The postdoctoral research group “Financialization,” headed jointly by Chris Hann and Don Kalb, completed its work in 2018–9. An edited volume Financialization: Relational Approaches will be published in Summer 2020 in the Berghahn Books series “Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy.” • The European Research Council project “Realising Eurasia” was extended until June 2020. Its major conferences took place in 2017 and 2019 as planned, in Wittenberg and Halle respectively. Project Coordinator Lale Yalçın-Heckmann is preparing an edited volume Moral Economy at Work: Ethnographic Investiga- tions in Eurasia. • The Visegrád Anthropologists’ Network was launched in October 2017. Besides supporting numerous doctoral and postdoctoral research projects, workshops and conferences have been organized by network members in Halle and Pilsen (2018) and Poznań and Prague (2019). • The Max Planck – Cambridge Centre for Ethics, Economy and Social Change (“Max-Cam”) was founded in July 2017 and formally inaugurated by the Vice- Chancellor of the University of Cambridge and the President of the Max Planck Society in Cambridge on 6 March 2018. • In connection with Max-Cam, in 2017 Chris Hann was re-elected to a Fellow- ship at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge (where he was previously a Fellow between 1980 and 1992). In 2018, as a consequence of Brexit, he applied for and was granted German citizenship. Also in 2018, he was elected a Fellow of Academia Europaea. In 2019, he was awarded the Huxley Medal of the Royal Anthropological Institute. • In 2019, ten years after joining our Max Planck Institute, Kirsten Endres was appointed to a professorship [Außerplanmäßige Professur] at the Martin Luther University. Her monograph Market Frictions. Trade and Urbanization at the Vietnam-China Border was published in 2019 by Berghahn Books in the series “Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy.” ‘Resilience and Transformation in Eurasia’ vii • Marek Mikuš, until 2018 a member of the “Financialization” group, submitted a successful grant application to the German Research Council and took up a new position in 2019 as Head of the Emmy Noether Research Group, “Peripheral Debt: Money, Risk and Politics in Eastern Europe.” • Minh Nguyen (Research Fellow between 2011 and 2016, now Professor at the University of Bielefeld) was awarded the 2019 Book Prize of the Society for the Anthropology of Work for her monograph Waste and Wealth: An Ethnography of Labor, Value, and Morality in a Vietnamese Recycling Economy (Oxford University Press, 2018).

We investigate entity framing of political figures through the use of names and titles in German online discourse, enhancing current research in entity framing through titling and naming that concentrates on English only. We collect tweets that mention prominent German politicians and annotate them for stance. We find that the formality of naming in these tweets correlates positively with their stance. This confirms sociolinguistic observations that naming and titling can have a status-indicating function and suggests that this function is dominant in German tweets mentioning political figures. We also find that this status-indicating function is much weaker in tweets from users that are politically left-leaning than in tweets by right-leaning users. This is in line with observations from moral psychology that left-leaning and right-leaning users assign different importance to maintaining social hierarchies. Keywords: framing, naming, Twitter, German, stance, sentiment, social media 1. Introduction An interesting language to contrast with English in terms of naming and titling is German.

  • Still an Awkward Class: Central European Post-Peasants at Home and Abroad in the {Era of Neoliberalism
    praktyka 177 teoretycna 3(9)/2013 CHRIS HANN Still an Awkward Class: Central European post-peasants at home and abroad in the {era of neoliberalism The paper builds on the author’s intimate knowledge of East- ern European village life over four decades. Before, during, and after socialism, villagers (“peasants” ) have always been incorporated into wider structures, while at the same time challenging standard social science theories. Their greater ability to reproduce themselves “outside the market” is the basis of their distinctiveness; this corresponds to a persisting distinction between town and countryside and has implica- tions for political mobilization. The paper develops binary comparisons at two levels: first, between capitalist and social- ist paths of rural development; second, within the latter, between the productive symbiosis accomplished in socialist Hungary and the stagnation of non-collectivized Poland. Some of these latter contrasts have persisted in new forms in the era of EU membership. Finally, the author expresses some personal nostalgia for the days when rural community { studies constituted the bedrock of ethnographic writing about this region. Keywords: peasants, anthropology, households, globalization, agribusiness, migra- tion, reproduction. praktyka teoretycna teoretycna teoretycna 3(9)/2013 178 Introduction One of the problems I have with the vast scholarly literature on “neo- liberalism” and “globalization” is that grassroots investigations of more remote, marginalized communities tend to be neglected. This applies with particular force in social anthropology, a discipline that has tradi- tionally specialised in penetrating remote communities and uncovering realities that are not visible in the aggregate statistics which absorb the attention of other social scientists.

  • Sociolinguistic Survey of Mpi in Thailand
    Sociolinguistic Survey of Mpi in Thailand Ramzi W. Nahhas SIL International 2007 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2007-016, August 2007 Copyright © 2007 Ramzi W. Nahhas and SIL International All rights reserved 2 Abstract Ramzi W. Nahhas, PhD Survey Unit, Department of Linguistics School of Graduate Studies Payap University/SIL International Chiang Mai, Thailand Mpi is a language spoken mainly in only two villages in Thailand, and possibly in one location in China, as well. Currently, Mpi does not have vernacular literature, and may not have sufficient language vitality to warrant the development of such literature. Since there are only two Mpi villages in Thailand, and they are surrounded by Northern Thai communities, it is reasonable to be concerned about the vitality of the Mpi language. The purposes of this study were to assess the need for vernacular literature development among the Mpi of Northern Thailand and to determine which (if any) Mpi varieties should be developed. This assessment focused on language vitality and bilingualism in Northern Thai. Additionally, lexicostatistics were used to measure lexical similarity between Mpi varieties. Acknowledgments This research was conducted under the auspices of the Payap University Linguistics Department, Chiang Mai, Thailand. The research team consisted of the author, Jenvit Suknaphasawat (SIL International), and Noel Mann (Technical Director, Survey Unit, Payap University Linguistics Department, and SIL International). The fieldwork would not have been possible without the assistance of the residents of Ban Dong (in Phrae Province) and Ban Sakoen (in Nan Province). A number of individuals gave many hours to help the researchers learn about the Mpi people and about their village, and to introduce us to others in their village.

  • Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology Working Papers
    MAX PLANCK INSTITUTE FOR SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY WORKING PAPERS Working Paper No. 50 CHRIS HANN HISTORY AND ETHNICITY IN ANATOLIA Halle / Saale 2003 ISSN 1615-4568 Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, P.O. Box 110351, 06017 Halle / Saale, Phone: +49 (0)345 2927-0, Fax: +49 (0)345 2927-402, http://www.eth.mpg.de, e-mail: [email protected] 1 History and Ethnicity in Anatolia Chris Hann1 Abstract This paper begins by sketching a simplified intellectual context for the author’s recent monographic study of a region in north-east Turkey (Bellér-Hann and Hann 2000). The scope is then gradually widened. First, it is shown how more historically oriented research can provide insight into the social organization of the region in question, and in particular, into the nature of ethnic identity. Contrary to some common assumptions, ethnicity seems to have been de- emphasized in the later Ottoman period, when the people of this periphery were already well integrated into the state system. Second, again drawing on recent publications by other scholars, the paper reviews the question of ethnicity in Anatolia generally. The Turkish republic has often been criticized for its failure to recognize ethnic groups, and is likely to come under increasing pressure to recognize the rights of ‘cultural minorities’, e.g. in negotiations over EU entry. Within anthropology, however, there is no consensus as to how recognition of group diversity should be translated into political practice. Key terms such as ‘culture’ and ‘ethnicity’ have become unstable. According to Barth’s influential discussion (1969), ethnicity classifies a person ‘in terms of his basic, most general identity’.

  • Ringberg Meeting “Bounding the Aerosol Effective Radiative Forcing”
    Ringberg meeting “Bounding the aerosol effective radiative forcing” 26 February – 2 March 2018, Schloss Ringberg, Kreuth, Germany Goal: The aim1 is to exclude unlikely strong and weak aerosol forcings (e.g. provide arguments why the aerosol forcing cannot be more negative than -1.5 Wm-2, or why it cannot be positive). We aim for likelihood rather than certainty. Each participant is invited to submit a 1-page list of theses about likely/unlikely aerosol to the group ([email protected]) before the workshop. Concept: One presenter per session - prepares a limited number of theses that quantify or constrain forcings/mechanisms - all participants are invited to submit theses to the presentations - theses can (should) be corroborated briefly by explanations/graphics/references - presenters distribute the theses until late January so participants can prepare for the discussions At the meeting, one rapporteur per session - moderates the plenum discussions and - takes notes for the wrap-up discussions on Friday A large part of the discussions will be in breakout groups: - three breakout groups with 10-12 participants each; - distribution will be randomly selected and change each time, and - a rapporteur per breakout group per session will also be randomly appointed Location: Ringberg Castle (www.schloss-ringberg.de). Participants are expected to cover their own expenses (travel to Munich + 2 hr train from airport / 1 hr from railway station plus 126 € / night including all meals) and be in residence for the duration of the workshop. If financial restrictions might prevent you from coming please let us know and we will look for ways to help offset some or all of the costs.

  • Declining Europe: a Reply to Alessandro Testa Chris Hann, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle (Saale), Germany
    Declining Europe: A Reply to Alessandro Testa Chris Hann, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle (Saale), Germany I thank Alessandro Testa for his erudite engagement with various pieces published over the last decade in which I have broached the concept of Eurasia.* I am glad that he recognizes the continuity in my usage, and that he agrees with me concerning the importance of historical Eurasia since the Bronze Age, as discussed by Jack Goody. We disagree concerning Europe. Testa sometimes writes as if I were trying to eliminate Europe altogether and theorise solely at the level of Eurasia. This is not the case: for me Europe is one important macro-region of Eurasia, an entity which includes the multiple macro-regions of “Asia” and also North Africa. I argue that Europe should not be viewed as a separate continent, the equivalent of Asia. Such a position to my mind epitomises Eurocentrism, which has pernicious effects in many fields and should have no place in anthropology. The Eurocentrism of Alessandro Testa is a rather strong variant since he gives a clear precedence to the Catholic and Protestant West. Given its traditional area remit, it is generous of this journal to give so much space to an author who evidently considers Europeans with an eastern Christian background to be at best second class, latching on as latecomers to an identity that, in the narrative that Testa endorses, has its “cradle” in the Latin Christianity of the Middle Ages. Testa is right to note (63) my reluctance to formulate any general “hypothesis” of Eurasian interconnectedness to be tested in empirical research.
