Rousseau Title: Pilgrimage, Spatial Interaction, and Memory at Three Marian Sites Advisor: Scott Montgomery Degree Date: June 2016 Abstract Global mediation, communication, and technology facilitate pilgrimage places with porous boundaries, and the dynamics of porousness are complex and varied. Three Marian, Catholic pilgrimage places demonstrate the potential for variation in porous boundaries: Chartres cathedral; the Marian apparition location of Medjugorje; and the House of the Virgin Mary near Ephesus. -

Draaien Om De Werkelijkheid
Draaien om de werkelijkheid Rapport over het antropologisch werk van prof. em. M.M.G. Bax Michiel Baud Susan Legêne Peter Pels Amsterdam, 9 september 2013 1 2 Inhoudsopgave Preambule Inleiding 1 De beschuldigingen aan het adres van Mart Bax 2 Neerdonk en het Brabants onderzoek 3 Medjugorje en het Bosnisch onderzoek 4 De publicaties van Bax 5 Conclusies van de commissie 6 Context en consequenties Bijlagen: 1 Opdracht aan de commissie 2 Bronnen en geraadpleegde literatuur 3 Lijst van opgegeven publicaties van Mart Bax met verschenen en niet verschenen titels 4 Geordend overzicht Medjugorje‐publicaties 3 4 Preambule De zaak die centraal staat in dit rapport is pijnlijk voor alle betrokkenen. Het gaat in de eerste plaats om de reputatie van een Nederlandse antropoloog, maar daarmee ook om een antropologische discipline en haar methodologie. Het betreft bovendien, niet onbelangrijk, een heel scala van menselijke en collegiale verhoudingen in de academische omgeving die gebaseerd zijn op een verwachting van eerlijkheid en transparantie. Het gaat, tenslotte, ook om instituties en hun functioneren, niet alleen de universiteit en de financiering van en controle op academisch onderzoek, maar ook het systeem van visitatiecommissies, peer‐reviewing en wetenschappelijk publiceren. Academische verhoudingen zijn gebaseerd op vertrouwen in de wetenschappelijke eerlijkheid van alle partijen. Twijfel over deze cruciale elementen, van welke aard ook, laat diepe sporen na. Enkele recente gevallen van wetenschappelijke fraude hebben laten zien hoe verreikend de gevolgen – maatschappelijk en academisch – kunnen zijn als dit vertrouwen geschaad wordt en wetenschappelijke integriteit niet meer vanzelfsprekend is. 5 6 Inleiding Dit rapport vindt zijn oorsprong in beschuldigingen van wetenschappelijk wangedrag aan het adres van prof. -

309 Fabrications on Medjugorje
Stud. ethnol. Croat., vol. 25, str. 309-355, Zagreb, 2013. PRIKAZI Fabrications on Medjugorje: on Mart Bax’ Research MART BAX, Medjugorje: Religion, Politics, and Violence in Rural Bosnia [Međugorje: religija, politika i nasilje u ruralnoj Bosni], Amsterdam: VU Uitgeverij, 1995., pp. xix+139 Mart Bax* is a member of the academia in the Netherlands, he has been a professor of political anthropology at the Vrije University in Amsterdam for many years. He got a PhD degree in 1976. His dissertation dealt with the relations between Catholics in Ireland; afterwards he wrote about the relations between the monastic and secular (Episcopal) clergy in the south of Netherlands, which is predominantly Catholic. In his doctoral thesis he claims that the monastic community, threatened by the introduction of a regular church hierarchy (a customary church structure made up of dioceses headed by bishops), often resorts to promoting the worship of saints and sanctuary cult of this kind in an area where it had been dominant in the past (due to the lack of diocese church organisation there or its own weakness) in order to protect its past positions. Upon hearing about the apparitions in Medjugorje, Mart Bax simply applied this thesis to the circumstances in Herzegovina. In his book Medjugorje: Religion, Politics, and Violence in Rural Bosnia (Amsterdam: VU Uitgeverij, 1995) he wished to prove that the Franciscans, who had been the dominant and exclusive representatives of the Catholic Church in (Bosnia and) Herzegovina for centuries, when faced with the risk of losing their centuries long privileges, went a step further in comparison with the Irish and Dutch monastic communities, namely they invented Our Lady * In 2012 Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (Free University of Amsterdam) initiated an investigation into the work of this Dutch anthropologist, who was suspected of scientifi c fraud. -
