2005 Annual Report

2005 Annual Report Chairman’s Introduction

Richard C. Hackney, Jr. Chairman of the Board of Trustees

2005 was a year of transition and also of achievement for the Foundation. Transition came with the re- tirement of Richard G. Fox after six years as Foundation President and the arrival of Leslie Aiello the new President. Achievement came in the many ways we have been able to forward the mission of the Foundation to foster significant and innovative anthropological research and to support international scholarly networks. For example, we received the largest number of applications for our Individual Re- search Grant Programs (Dissertation Fieldwork and Post-Ph.D. Research Grants and the Richard Carley Hunt Memorial Fellowship) in the history of the Foundation and made 146 awards. We also sup- ported 24 conferences and workshops, enabled 38 international scholars to train at world-class institu- tions and organized the largest number of Wenner-Gren sponsored events in the recent history of the Foundation, all but one being held in the new meeting facilities at the Foundation offices in New York.

This success is due to the hard work and leadership of Richard G. Fox (Dick) and to the first-rate work and support provided by the Wenner-Gren staff. Dick's leadership over the past six years has placed the Foundation in a strong position to continue to grow and provide much-needed support to the broad- based field of anthropology. Dick was particularly concerned with the problems faced by young anthro- pologists in gaining a foothold in the profession. He considerably increased the stipend for the Richard Carley Hunt Memorial Fellowship to allow young scholars to take time off to prepare a monograph or collection of journal articles on previously completed research. It has been one of our most successful recent programs and has helped a number of young colleagues to gain their first academic position or, for those a bit more advanced, to gain promotion or tenure.

Among Dick's other accomplishments is our current panel system that insures every research applica- tion a fair and thorough peer review. He continually sought ways in which the Foundation could extend its reach outside of the US and also inaugurated the Wenner-Gren International Symposium Publication Series in collaboration with Berg Publishers. This book series insures rapid publication and worldwide dissemination of the outcomes of our international symposia. He also continued his close involvement with the Foundation's journal, Current Anthropology, through the development of its online facilities and managed the move of the Foundation offices to our new premises. For all of this the Foundation offers Dick our sincerest thanks and best wishes for his retirement.

Leslie C. Aiello, President

I arrived at the Foundation in May 2005 with plans to build on the strengths and prior successes of the Foundation. My first major initiative was to review the Foundation's website with the aims of increasing our profile in the field, clarifying our funding programs, improving our application guidelines and provid- ing more information on the history of the Foundation and the impact it has had on the development of international anthropology. Together with the redesign of the website we are introducing online applica- tion and review systems. Online reviewing will permit us to give feedback to both the successful and un- successful applicants in a timely fashion and online applications should facilitate the application process for grant-seekers irrespective of where they might be located internationally. Both systems will also help to streamline internal procedures at the Foundation and free-up staff time to provide better service to the community. Both the website and the online application and review system will be fully launched in 2006.

Together with the web-based initiatives we also undertook a major review of all of the Foundation's pro- grams to improve and clarify our grant-making and other activities, insure the continued success of Cur- rent Anthropology, and reinvigorate the Wenner-Gren/University of Pennsylvania casting program. Par- ticular attention has been given to assessing the ways in which our funding programs meet the needs of the international community of anthropologists through the Professional Development International Fel- lowship (PDIF), the International Collaborative Research Grant (ICRG) and the Post-Ph.D. Research Grant programs. There has also been concern over the effect of electronic journal access on the viability of Current Anthropology and discussions are underway with University of Chicago Press to insure its future as are discussions with the University of Pennsylvania to bring the Wenner-Gren hominid casting program back into full production.

In the midst of this review, I have also endeavored to solicit the input of the widest number of anthro- pologists to help inform the future direction of the Foundation's programs and activities. The Wenner- Gren Foundation is a unique resource for international anthropology and I encourage anthropologists everywhere to interact with the Foundation, offer your ideas and help determine the Foundation's direc- tion for the future. I look forward to working with our Board of Trustees and our Academic Advisory Council to insure that the Foundation helps the field continue to grow, develop and meet the challenges of the modern world; but I can only do this successfully with the help and involvement of the entire field.

3 2005 Annual Report

Program Highlights: Research Grants and the Hunt Postdoctoral Fellowship

The Foundation provides support to individual research and writing at the Ph.D. and Post. Ph.D. level through the Dissertation Research grant, the Post-Ph.D. Research grant and the Hunt Postdoctoral Fel- lowship. 146 grants were given across these categories during 2005 to scholars whose work reflected a range of interests and themes across the discipline. Without being able to reflect the full diversity of the field, the following section highlights some of the themes and notable topics across the four fields (archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural/social anthropology and linguistic anthropology) to give an indication of the variety of research the Foundation supported in 2005.

Archaeology

A number of archaeology projects were funded in 2005 that apply a practice-based approach to explore the impact of state formation and colonial processes on material culture and daily life in local communi- ties. Three of these projects target culinary activities and foodways to examine the relationship between cuisine and social change as they explore the ways in which state political and economic demands im- pacted local domestic practices in prehistoric societies. On the north coast of Peru, Robyn E. Cutright addresses the kinds of change that non-elite households experienced during Chimu state expansion by evaluating if and how patterns of food preparation and consumption differ in domestic contexts prior to and after conquest in A.D. 1200. Focusing on food remains, culinary assemblages and their spatial or- ganization, she assesses the effects of state expansion on domestic activities by examining the extent to which daily practice related to household economic and political strategies and the gendered organiza- tion of labor was reorganized. In the Jinan region of China, Min Li's analysis of patterned variation in faunal remains recovered from domestic contexts focuses on the role that ethnicity played in the differ- ential access to and use of animals for culinary and ritual purposes during the mid 2nd millennium B.C. His inquiry into socioeconomic strategies used by distinct ethnic groups with multiple and overlap- ping identities produces insights into the varied ways multiethnic communities responded to and negoti- ated Shang state expansion. Working at Tiwanaku sites in Bolivia, Carrie Anne Berryman applies an innovative bioarchaeological approach to her investigation of the degree to which state formation proc- esses altered the diet and nutrition of individuals of distinct status and ethnic affiliation residing at core and periphery communities. By combining isotopic analysis, phytolith analysis from dental calculus and standard dental observations of human skeletal remains, she compares patterns of consumption before and after the rise of the state to assess the nature of Tiwanaku's political authority and its effects on lo- cal domestic economy.

Focusing on historic period colonial encounters, two projects adopt a dialectical perspective of social change instead of a more conventional framework based on simple oppositions between domination and resistance. Working in the Volta region of Ghana, Ray Wazi Apoh draws on oral history, archival sources and archaeology to decipher the ways in which mid 19th century foodways and culinary prac- tices reflect the maintenance and blurring of social distinctions among elite and commoner colonizers and colonized. His study of long-term patterns of change and continuity in ceramic technology and sub- sistence practices at socially differentiated households at four sites addresses mutually influential changes in taste and economic and social organization brought about by the importation of European domestic technologies and containers and introduction of New World crops. Steven Wernke was awarded a Richard Carley Hunt Fellowship to publish a book based on his study of how community or- ganization, land-use patterning and built landscape were mediated by a complex process of two-way negotiation in the Colca Valley of southern highland Peru during successive waves of Inka and Spanish colonization. By integrating a GIS-based reconstruction of ayllu land tenure patterns from the study of Spanish administrative surveys with archaeological settlement data, the book traces the reproduction

4 Program Highlights, cont. and transformation of settlement and landscape organization that both structured and was transformed by interactions between local communities and colonial agents.

Two more historic period, practiced-based projects set in the United States examine theoretical issues of ethnicity, gender, race and class formation. Working in North Carolina at Welches Town, a traditional enclave formed by a group of Cherokee Indians who avoided forced military removal in 1838, Lance Greene investigates how state-sponsored forms of legal and social marginalization during a thirty year period impacted daily life and concepts of community. Drawing on archival and archaeological data, his comparative analysis of artifact assemblages from pre- and post-removal era house sites considers con- tinuities and changes in material culture that reflect how subjugated groups maintained ethnic identity as they modified traditional economic and social practices to cope with the impact of state and capitalist projects designed to subjugate ethnic minorities. Christina J. Hodge focuses on material culture, agency, and practice as she traces the emergence of an incipient middle class identity in Newport, Rhode Island, and chronicles the effects of capitalism and colonialism on people's daily lives and their notions of taste, value and social distinction during the early 18th century. Through a detailed examina- tion of printed sources, archival documents and archaeological evidence, she identifies the processes, actions and choices that molded concepts of identity and class formation.

Biological Anthropology

In 2005 projects were funded from a variety of subdisciplines in biological anthropology including pa- leoanthropology, primate behavior, skeletal biology, and human biological variation. Funds were pro- vided for researchers to undertake research at paleontological field sites in Ethiopia, Libya, and Roma- nia. Both African projects are searching for clues about the earliest human ancestors. One of these sites, following previous funding from the Wenner-Gren Foundation, has already produced a spectacular new 4 million year old early human skeleton that was announced in the pages of Nature magazine. This field project, at the site of Woranso-Mille in the Afar region of Ethiopia, is being run by Dr. Yohannes Haile-Selassie and it promises to yield more important early human fossil remains. The Romanian pro- ject is under the direction of Dr. Eric Trinkaus and he will use funds to determine whether this site has the first clear association between early modern human fossils and Aurignacian tools. Marc Shur, a graduate student at , seeks to determine the adaptive significance of baboon ‘friendships' for males and lactating females using behavioral and hormonal data. He will use these data to explore the potential social and ecological stresses that might have lead to the evolution of pair- bonding and biparental care in large primate social groups, including humans. Kristen Hartnett, from Arizona State University, intends to refine the techniques used to determine age at death from the mor- phology of the pubic symphysis and the fourth rib and to create a large comparative database of speci- mens for anthropologists to use in future research projects. This project has the potential to contribute to both forensic anthropology and archeology. Dr. Christopher Kuzawa will examine data from a large and well-documented sample of male Filipinos to test whether fetal and early postnatal nutrition affects future male reproductive function, in particular testosterone production. This will increase our under- standing of male reproductive development.

Cultural/Social Anthropology

Anthropology has expanded its research on childhood beyond conceiving it as a cultural or developmen- tal stage marking progress towards socialization. Young people are now considered to be social agents in their own right, actively remaking the world and capable of transforming family systems and cultural logics. Popular and professional explanations frequently continue to explain youth practices that lie on the margins of normative social practices, such as adolescent gangs and violence within a framework of deviancy and transgression away from the ideals of what a childhood should be. These ideas are chal- lenged in several projects being supported this year. Thomas Widger focuses on the extremely high rates of suicide among young people in Sri Lanka. Not only is the absence of anthropological research focusing on this form of everyday violence important but high suicide rates are often understood to rep- resent the anomie that befalls youth as their expectations remain unmet. Explanations fall into tautologi- 5 Program Highlights, cont. cal reasoning where suicide is assumed to be the result of rapid modernization and lack of social cohe- sion and at the same time is taken as evidence that social cohesion is being disrupted. Widger ques- tions these interpretations, and through closely tuned empirical investigation he plans to explore how young people, their suicidal ideation, and the media have created a “culture of suicide,” which is rarely subjected to scrutiny and which may uncover more complicated truths.

On the other side of the spectrum, youth gangs and street children have always captured, and disturbed, the public and scientific imagination. Explanatory frameworks for street gangs echo those used for youth suicide: changing forms of social cohesion, marginalization, lack of opportunity and urban anomie lead inexorably to alienated street children and, finally, lawlessness and violence. Emily Margaretten is work- ing with street children in South Africa who have created their own forms of urban shelters. She will be looking at how these individuals transgress the very ideals of Zulu personhood and the value it places on the tightly organized household group. The children have transformed these values and norms to produce and reproduce their own social organization and institutions, and ultimately find a sense of hope within their own social imaginaries.

Medical anthropology continues to be a vibrant field, often on the frontlines of investigating the intersec- tion between technology and society, asking how the incorporation of these new technologies changes our ideas of selfhood and sociality in different culture contexts. Jill Allison starts her work in a clinic in Ireland that offers infertility treatment and looks at how these very possibilities reshape life concepts, such as reproduction and conception, in a society where the right to life of the unborn is enshrined in the constitution. In Italy, Claudia Petruccio follows Filipina women as they are advised about the results of amniocentesis and observes how these interactions are steeped with cultural values that affect women's decision making. Alexis Matza compares testosterone therapy among two different groups: transgen- dered and aging males. The varying notions of masculinity and its medicalization are a core part of her research, as is the individual's struggle with his own ideas of how masculinity is or should be embodied. Finally, Eirini Kampriani will conduct research on genetic testing for ovarian and breast cancer in a rural and urban setting in Greece. She will be looking at how the results are handled in a society where ideas of bodily and spiritual health are intertwined All these projects see a collision of ethical and moral con- cerns over how to manage new information in particular cultural contexts.

The mind and healing is also at the forefront of medical anthropology. Current innovations in science and medicine continue to impact how we understand mental health and sickness. Examining healing practices in different settings can show how various epistemologies collide and highlight the cultural ad- aptations of psychiatry in non-western settings. Two projects funded this year examine how institutions and cultural practices mediate new and older ideas. In Brazil spiritists fund and administer approximately one third of private psychiatric hospitals. Spiritism is increasing in its appeal to a large portion of the up- wardly mobile and middle class. Anna Thiessen asks how the spiritist vision of madness, in which men- tal illness is attributed to moral causes and individual responsibility, engages with western explanations that locate mental illness in the body and/or mind. Jennifer Hale-Gallardo works in Mexico, where she focuses less on the patients and more on traditional healers, who are now being incorporated into some public hospitals. This institutionalization of traditional healing means that healers face new practices and policies and now embody the state. She asks how they manage any tensions and contradictions that emerge from their incorporation into the public realm. Anthropology thus continues to be engaged through these studies with the wide array of practices and changes that emerge as individuals, institu- tions and states keep up with technological advances. At the same time, these studies show how fine- grained ethnographies, situated at the intersection of health, biomedicine and healing can illuminate new cultural politics, and illustrate the ways in which anthropology continues to document the alternative and parallel modernities that are part of everyday life.

Linguistic Anthropology

In 2005, the Foundation supported eight projects in linguistic anthropology. There was a wide range of topics and regions, with projects funded in Kazakhstan, Brazil, Cameroon and India among others. The

6 Program Highlights, cont. role of language in constructing groups, and the idea of “us and them” has been a vibrant site of re- search for linguistic anthropology and continues to be important given the diversity of contemporary life. Immaculada Garcia Sanchez is working with immigrant children in Spain to look at language socializa- tion among these children. She will put special emphasis on the child-child social interactions in order to understand these children's social worlds and cultures in their own right. Valentina Pagliai looks at how ideas of self and other are constructed in everyday conversations in Italy. While racism may is often seen as born out of the social structure, and / or individual psychology, through a micro-analysis in three different places she plans to observe how it is perpetuated only if it is interactionally achieved and con- textually agreed upon by different individuals in group settings. Conflict of another sort is examined by Simon Keeling who will be researching funeral performances in Bazou, Cameroon, to see how these performances and their music and poetry reproduce and take-up the conflict and ambivalences over kin- ship and ethnicity that are present in the community, and compare this to how it expresses ideas of con- sensus and resolution. Finally, Karen Pennesi demonstrates the usefulness of linguistic analysis for a very practical application: in Northeeast Brazil, traditional and scientific weather forecasts are communicated in different ways. Pennesi plans to examine the different communicative forms and styles of these forecasts and relate this to how they influence rural agricultural producers to make use of this information.

7 2005 Annual Report International Symposia and Workshops

The Foundation has convened more than 130 international symposia over its history on topical issues in anthropology. The themes chosen reflect the diversity of the discipline, and scholars from across the globe have participated. 2005 was an exciting year that included symposia in Italy and smaller work- shops held at the Foundation's new offices in .

INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIA AND WORKSHOPS IN 2005

The Foundation organized two international symposia examining current debates in topics of long- standing interest to anthropology: 1) the cultural and political lives of indigenous people, and 2) how changing career structure and opportunities affect the way we think about fieldwork and research in an- thropology. The conference on indigenous experience continued the “Burg Wartenstein” model of a six- day meeting held at remote locations, while the modified format of “Anthropology/ At Work /As Work” launched our new conference facilities in Manhattan, adding a new dimension to the work of the Foun- dation. Extensive pre-planning and a focus on intense discussion remain central to the various formats used in the International Symposium Program and are key to the success of these meetings.Volumes from both symposia are scheduled for publication from Berg in 2007.

In addition to symposia, the Foundation hosted three workshops in 2005. Koray Caliskan, then a Ph.D. candidate and Wenner-Gren grantee at New York University, organized a one-day workshop on anthro- pology and global markets open to the public and it attracted a diverse audience of scholars, some from as far away as Sweden. Next, a team of four primatologists and a social anthropologist brought together a mix of researchers and specialists to explore the possibility of establishing an interactive Primate Life- History Databank. And finally, in connection with the 2005 Viking Fund Award, the Foundation collabo- rated with George Armelagos, recipient of the 2005 Viking Fund medal, to invite a group of fifteen recent grantees along with three senior specialists and Professor Armelagos to a workshop where grantees discussed their research within the context of the future of anthropology and its interdisciplinary possibili- ties.

In 2005 Berg Publishers released Embedding Ethics as part of its Wenner-Gren International Sympo- sium Series. The volume resulted from a 2002 symposium organized by Lynn Meskell and Peter Pels, who also served as editors.

8 Indigenous Experience Today International Symposium March 18-25, 2005 Hotel Villa Luppis Rivarotta di Pasiano, Italy Organized by Marisol de la Cadena (University of California, Davis) Orin Starn (Duke University) This symposium focused on the theme of indigenous experience in the world today. Most observers, including anthropologists, believed that native peoples would vanish with modernity's advance. Instead many tribal groups have survived into the 21st century, from Australian aborigines and New Zealand Maori to Native Americans in this country. Our symposium drew together a diverse group of scholars to examine the nature of indigenous culture and politics – and how they should be best understood – in various places worldwide. Together we were able to explore parallels and linked histories in the trajec- tory of modern native survival and resurgence. It was our consensus nonetheless that indigenous ex- perience can only be understood through close attention to the strikingly varied histories, sensibilities, and configurations of power, culture, and economy of native groups in different parts of the world.

The conference brought together scholars interested in Africa, Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the Ameri- cas. Each presenter wrote a paper grounded in his or her own research as the basis for comparative conversation and the exploration of broader theoretical questions and problems. Why do some groups of people choose to identify as “Indian,” “native,” or “indigenous” and others not? How have indigenous peoples been affected by – and also shaped – the new dynamics of transnationalism and globalization? What has been the relation between indigenous politics and non-governmental organizations, national governments, and international multilateral groups? How have tourism and the hunger of Western tour- ists for an encounter with “authentic” tribal peoples figured into indigenous experience? How have native peoples organized to achieve social goals at a national and global level? These are some of the key questions that we probed during six days of intense, productive conversation.

We had breakout sessions in the last part of the symposium focused around four themes. One group explored the impact of colonialism and postcolonial government on indigenous peoples; a second took up the question of gender relations and their role in both native societies and popular perceptions of tribal groups; a third explored the uses by indigenous groups of technologies from writing to video and the Internet; and a fourth examined the problem of memory, violence, and suffering, and the place of concepts of guilt and obli- gation in popular perceptions of native peoples as well as their own self- understandings. During the final ses- sion, we turned to a one-by-one dis- cussion of each specific paper, includ- ing concrete suggestions for revision for the conference volume. We expect Participants: FRONT: R.Fox, E.Yeh, A. Baviskar, M. de la Cadena, V. Lambert, P. Chaat Smith BACK: F/ Merlan, A. Tsing, C. Briones, K/ to send the volume, with an introduc- Hetherington, J.

New Directions in the Anthropology of Markets a one-day workshop Wenner-Gren Foundation, New York City Organizer: Koray Caliskan, New York University

“The Anthropology of Markets” was the first public workshop held at the Foundation's new offices. Anthropologists, sociologists, and political scien- tists came together for a day to begin a discussion on the nature of today's global markets and ad- dressed the question of what, for anthropologists, is a global market? K. Caliskan presenting his paper in the Wenner-Gren conference room. The day was organized around four sessions. The first focused on “The Earth of Markets.” This session approached markets from the vantage point of the countryside and rural producers. The second session explored “The Rhythms of Markets” and made visible the global nature of markets from the vantage point of financial production. Following these two sites of exchange/production, the third session, “The Making of Markets,” focused on the way markets are studied in anthropology and mapped the current state of literature. The final session, “Science, Technology and the Multi-Sited Faces of Markets,” pulled together themes that had emerged over the course of the day.

Overall, the international workshop addressed the following questions by drawing on the empirical framework of five exciting ethnographies of markets:

1. How do various agents of markets in their local and/or global articulations relate (or not) to one an- other and to the object of exchange? 2. How do various social actors conceive of their engagement with a global market and where do the find their agency within this market? 3. What role, if any, do abstract scientific statements and approaches play in relations of power in these contexts? 4. How relevant is the embeddedness argument that prefigured one of the longest and richest debates of anthropology, namely that between formalists and substantivists in the age of market reform? 5. How do the relations of signification, production and exchange, in this multi-local context of markets, connect social positions to power?

10 Anthropology / At Work / As Work International Symposium May 19-22, 2005 Wenner-Gren Foundation, New York City Organized by Les Field (University of New Mexico) and Richard G. Fox (President Emeritus, Wenner- Gren Foundation)

The Foundation hosted an international symposium on the current situation of anthropology, with par- ticular attention to the distinction between applied and basic research. We wished to speak to the many anthropologists today who worry about the direction for future scholarship. Should anthropology be en- gaged or disinterested, public or ivory-towered, pure or applied, advocatory or objective? Although such arguments about the ultimate direction and responsibility of anthropology predate World War II, they have recently become more urgent as global inequality, environmental degradation, and corporate/state power have grown apace. Another source of urgency is the lack of protected university positions for many young anthropologists. As they look elsewhere for work, they must ask themselves, “what can we offer,” just as employers ask of them, “what can you do.”

Whether it comes from a commitment to say something meaningful about public issues or from the ne- cessity of competing for jobs in novel places, anthropologists increasingly blur the boundary between the applied and the pure. Some anthropologists consult for indigenous movements, others serve the aims of governments, still others work with the disabled—and there are many other novel working relationships for anthropologists today. Anthropology at work and as work means adapting the discipline to new con- ditions of labor in the present, which affect theory, methodology, goals, and consciousness.

The symposium started with an evening session on Thursday May 19th, during which the co-organizers set out their objective and defined the format. Richard Fox began with a historical perspective on the sharp boundary between applied and basic research in his graduate training during the early 1960s. Ba- sic research for him in that period was part of a radical project to make over anthropology into a social science, to rid it of a residual antiquarian character from the study of the primitive world, and to resituate it fully as the study of complex, urban societies.

Les Field followed up with a discussion of the pa- rameters he hoped would guide the proceedings in the days to come. Field proposed that for the pur- poses of the symposium, the participants focus less upon describing the substantive ethnographic features of their work, and more upon their method- ologies, epistemological frameworks, and modes of inquiry. Second, Field called attention to the incon- gruities between the training participants had re- ceived in graduate school and their current work as a way of re-emphasizing the crisis in training new anthropologists. Under such circumstances, the old divide between pure and applied research has be- come particularly debilitating to the future of the Anthropologists At Work.

The format of the symposium made the issue of anthropology's new work situation central. The opening session on Friday morning May 20th, entitled “The Work Place,” considered changes in where and for whom anthropologists work.

Mercedes Doretti spoke of the new work of forensic anthropologists, as they gather evidence for govern- ments or citizen groups in the aftermath of warfare, ethnic cleansing, or death squads. Linda Basch indi- cated the sustaining role played by her identity as an anthropologist, even though the work she does in running a foundation that funds research on women makes little direct use of her training in anthropol- ogy. Drexel Woodson, reporting on research in Haiti by BARA (Bureau of Applied Anthropology, Univer- sity of Arizona), discussed the “indicators” that an anthropologist must provide to international aid or- ganizations as proof of the need for aid. Pam Block related her personal work experiences in the new

11 Anthropology / At Work / As Work, cont. neo-liberal American university, a place that operates on “for profit” and pragmatic principles quite alien from the university as privileged site of protected faculty doing basic research.

The next session, on Friday afternoon, was called “The Work Force” and considered the new working relationships anthropologists have encountered. Anthropologists have historically probed the participant- observer relationship with individual informants, but they have paid much less attention to their relation- ships with social movements in their own and informants' countries, with the university systems in these countries, and with the state and private institutions that fund research.

Craig Howe started off the afternoon session with the case of the working relationships that entered into the planning and construction of the supposedly radical and Nativist National Museum of the American Indian. The appearance of radicalism and a free hand in presentation is insidious, Howe argued, be- cause in actuality, the NMAI does not challenge standard American representation of Indians. Sandy Toussaint described several cases of no less uneasy working relations for anthropologists in Australia, where anthropological collaboration with other specialists is limited because anthropologists do not pro- duce the right kind of knowledge. Gelya Frank's presentation reflected upon the career she has devel- oped mixing anthropology with occupational therapy. Her ethnography of everyday life for the disabled represents a major step in the development of disability studies, and has facilitated a much more pro- found understanding of patient consent and empowerment.

The Saturday morning session focused on “the Work,” that is, on the ways anthropology's methodology, epistemology, and theory have changed in response to new work places and working relations. Andrew Walsh began by reminding anthropologists that what they do is a job, not a religious calling, and when they “fail” at that job, it's because the job market is bad, they interviewed poorly, or their research hunches didn't turn out. It's not because of some inner failing, which the notion of anthropology as a call- ing and fieldwork as a sacred “vision quest” promote. Charles Hale approached the symposium with specific goals for "anthropology at work”: fostering innovative and activist-motivated collaborative ethno- graphic work through institutional changes, including the training of new anthropologists. Dissatisfied with the caricatures of activist work in anthropology, Hale's use of this adjective connotes engagement with the world and a motivation to study both the powerful and the disempowered.

Nandini Sundar showed how the hackneyed definition of anthropology as “what anthropologists do” misses the point that what they do—and what therefore they take to be anthropology—differs greatly in different places and circumstances. In anthropology's early days in India, Sundar noted, many scholars distinguished their research publications from what they put out as popular texts. Sundar then went on to show that this distinction does not operate for anthropologists in a postcolonial India: the colonial mas- ters have departed and Indian scholars no longer need their approval, and, meanwhile, the pogroms permitted or even encouraged by a post-Independence government and the surge of sectarian hostility cry out for anthropologists to get involved.

Joanne Rappaport discussed characteristics and ramifications of the kind of collaborative work she has been conducting with indigenous movements in Colombia. Her recent projects involved participation be- tween US anthropologists, Colombian anthropologists, and indigenous Nasa researchers. Such projects simultaneously train Native researchers in research skills as well as develop uniquely indigenous episte- mologies and forms of knowledge.

On Saturday afternoon Doug Foley presented some unifying themes for the symposium. He felt that the presentations hinged upon a revaluation of new kinds of anthropological work and the products of that work, as well as new kinds of peer-review that could substantiate the quality of the standards and out- comes of such work.

In the final session on Sunday morning, Field outlined three major themes that had been explored. The first focused upon fieldwork and fieldwork methods, particularly in multi-disciplinary work, and especially with regard to a redefinition of the meaning of ethnographic reflexivity. The second theme was an elabo- ration of the ways in which process and product in anthropological work are valued and evaluated, against the backdrop of the new kinds of work the participants have been engaged in doing. The third

12 Anthropology / At Work / As Work, cont. theme recognized the importance of different national traditions in anthropology, especially with respect to the meanings and development of applied, basic, and activist types of work.

Fox considered what it would mean to anthropology to move beyond the applied-basic research distinc- tion and recognize the new work places, working relations, and theoretical and methodological work for anthropology. He felt that it would remove some of the unnecessary scholarly allegiances that now fetter anthropology. These include cultural relativism, rapport in the field, holism, and reflexivity as based on self-realization. In the ensuing discussion, participants reflected on whether there could be or should be a unitary anthropology and on how or whether anthropology could be saved. More than likely, whatever anthropologists might or might not want to happen, the new work places and working relations are going to have their way with anthropology no matter what, and we had better prepare ourselves and our stu- dents for them.

Primate Life History Databank: Setting the Agenda An International Workshop September 23-25, 2005 Wenner-Gren Foundation, New York City Organized by Karen B. Strier (University of Wisconsin, Madison), Susan Alberts (Duke University), Patricia C. Wright (Stony Brook University), Jeanne Altmann (Princeton University), and David Zeitlyn (University of Kent).

The Wenner-Gren Foundation hosted and supported a 2-day workshop entitled “Primate Life History Databank: Setting the Agenda”. Participants included fourteen principal investigators of some of the world's longest-running primate field studies and an eclectic group of data specialists, scientists involved in large-scale collaborations, and representatives of funding agencies. The purpose of the workshop was to discuss the feasibility of launching a unique collaborative effort among primatologists, with the ultimate goal of developing an interactive, supported resource, the Primate Life History Databank (PLHD). The PLHD would allow qualified researchers to archive data and facilitate collaborative re- search efforts around them.

The workshop was organized around the premise that long-term, individual-based field studies are the best sources of life history data for addressing evolutionary and ecological questions. Long-term data on individuals are particularly important because these variables are known to fluctuate in response to local ecological, social, and demographic conditions; this variability profoundly affects the conservation status and management of endangered species, and can contribute vital perspectives for assessing the eco- logical impacts of global climate change. The long-term life history data maintained by principal investi- gators (PIs) of ongoing field studies represent invaluable and irreplaceable resources for the anthropo- logical and larger scientific community, particularly now that the future of so many primates is gravely 13 Primate Life History Databank, cont.

The workshop was designed to maximize taxonomic representation among primate studies and to ex- pose the participants to a wide range of models for large-scale collaborations, data management tech- niques, and data storage options. Species represented by the participating PIs included two species of lemurs (white sifaka [Brockman] and Milne-Edwards' sifaka [Wright]); three species of New World mon- keys (white-faced capuchin [Fedigan], mantled howler [Glander], and northern muriquis [Strier]); four species of Old World monkeys (yellow baboons [Alberts and Altmann], blue monkeys [Cords], toque monkeys [Dittus], and Yakushima Japanese macaques [Sugiura]); and four populations of apes (gibbons [Reichard], Kibali chimpanzees [Wrangham], Gombe chimpanzees [Pusey], and mountain gorillas [Gerald Steklis]). Michael Huffman was also present to contribute per- spectives on provisioned populations of Japanese macaques. Diverse per- spectives on databases and models of collaboration were provided by Karl Pinc, Nico Franz, Jeanne Beck, David Zeitlyn, and William Morris. In addition, Leslie Aiello and Mark Weiss contributed their perspectives on the proposed project and helped to stimulate discussions about the comparative breadth of the project and what it means to have a truly accessible databank.

14 2005 Annual Report International Programs

One important part of the Foundation's mission is to strengthen and support anthropology throughout the world. Through specialized programs such as the Wadsworth Fellowship program which provides sup- port to individuals who aspire for further training and come from countries where anthropology is not well represented and the International Collaborative Research grant which puts together researchers from different countries, the Foundation aims to fulfill this part of its mission. The success of these programs can be seen in the numbers of students who have returned back to their home countries and have prominent academic positions in universities around the world. International Collaborative Research Grant and Wadsworth Fellowship Program

The popularity of Wenner-Gren International Programs continues to grow. In 2005, the International Collaborative Research grant was awarded to 10 different research projects. Scholars from Europe and North America worked together with scholars from a diverse range of countries including Yemen, South Korea, Bangladesh, Brazil and China among others.

Laurel Kendall of the American Museum of Natural History, New York, is collaborating with Nguyen Van Huy of the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology, Hanoi, Vietnam through the support of an ICRG grant on a project titled called "The Sacred Life of Material Goods". In the photo here, Ong Dong Duc, master spirit medium of Vietnam's Phu Tien Huong Temple (center), meets with members of the research team: Ms VuThi Thanh Tam (far left), Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Huong (center right) and Laurel Kendall (Middle right); two unidentified representatives of the district cul- tural office are also present. (Vietnam, November 2004.)

The Wadsworth Fellowship Program (previously known as the Professional Development International Fellowship pro- gram) brings graduate students and scholars to universities from countries lacking adequate resources for training and/ or research in particular fields of anthropology.

Rose Solangaarachchi (Sri Lanka), a Wadsworth Fellow at the University of Florida, was also awarded a Wenner-Gren Dissertation Research grant for her fieldwork. In the picture above she is examining an ancient iron smelting furnace, which she excavated by herself at Dikyaya on the Kiri Oya Basin in Sri Lanka in 2005. Rose is currently writing up her dissertation “Ancient Iron Smelting Technology and the Set- tlement Pattern in the Kiri Oya Basin, the Dry Zone of Sri Lanka” with the support of the forth year dissertation write- up award availble through the Wadsworth Fellowship pro- gram.)

15 International Programs, cont.

In 2005 the Foundation provided continuing support for over 20 fellows and made 13 new awards. Many of the Wadsworth fellows have continued on to postdoctoral research positions, and others have returned home to make significant contributions in their own countries spreading the diversity of anthropological research and training worldwide. Some recent developments among the fellows are listed below:

17 2005 Annual Report Viking Fund Medal

First awarded in 1946, the Viking Fund Medal continued to be given to exceptional anthropologists until 1972. In 2003 the Viking Fund Medal was reinstated in order to periodically recognize anthropologists who have made significant contributions, both academic and professional, to anthropology. In 2005 the medal was awarded to Dr. George Armelagos to honor his dedication to both research and teaching throughout his career. In 2005, the Wenner-Gren Board of Trustees awarded the Viking Fund Medal to Professor George Armelagos of Emory University, Georgia along with a $25,000 award. This is the third time the medal has been awarded since it was reinsti- tuted by the Foundation as a way to honor anthropologists who have followed their own disctinctive trajectory within the aca- demic, professional and teaching realms making a significant contribution to the development of anthropology. Previous re- cent medalists were Dr. Jane Hill (Regents' Professor of An- thropology and Linguistics at the University of Arizona, Tucson) in 2004 and Professor Marilyn Strathern, (Cambridge University, UK) in 2003.

Dr. Armelagos is a biological anthropologist whose contribu- tions and numerous publications span the broad field of Anthropology. His special interests lie in the interaction of bio- logical and cultural systems within an evolutionary context. Through his research in the 1960s and 1970s with Sudanese Nubia, Dickson Mounds, Illinois, and elsewhere, he revolution- ized the study of ancient disease in human populations by pro- moting an epidemiological approach and highlighting the evolutionary and ecological factors that are in- strumental to the disease process. He has also done influential work on the evolution of food choice and the impacts of the agricultural transition on human populations in terms of health and disease. This work has resulted in a general theory of the evolution of human disease and the epidemiological transitions that have taken place throughout the course of human history.

Through his work Dr. Armelagos has also en- couraged a new generation of skeletal biolo- gists to think about disease in prehistory in complex theoretical ways and back it up with good, empirical research. One of his main contributions is the central role he has played in the establishment, development and promo- tion of Bioarchaeology as a field that com- bines physical anthropology, medical anthro- pology, forensics, health sciences and archae- ology into the influential multi-disciplinary dis- cipline that it is today. Alongside this impres- sive record, Dr. Armelagos has been active in thinking about race and its utility as a concept for understanding biological variation in hu- man populations, arguing that race as a bio- Professor Armelagos exchanges a Viking helmet with his logical concept is of little value. He has continu- wife, Lynn Sibley at the Viking Fund Medal reception where ally endeavored to combine biological and cul- he was presented with the Medal and award, October 2005.)

Dr. Armelagos has influenced countless students and colleagues, whom he has encouraged and supported throughout his career and with whom he continues to collaborate.

The award was presented at a reception and dinner for Professor Armelagos at the Foundation Offices in New York City/ A weekend long conference also took place at the Foundation offices where fifteen recent Wenner-Gren grantees were invited to participate and discuss their research along with Professor Armelagos and three other senior scholars all of whom have been influenced by Professor Armelagos' vision of anthropology. The interdisciplinary group of grantees were all invited as their work reflected various strands and themes of Professor Armelagos' research. The outcome was a lively debate about the importance of interdisciplinary work and perspectives, and the future of anthropology.
