Anthropological Explorations in Queer Theory offers a wide ranging fusion of queer theory with anthropological theory, shifting away from the discussion of gender categories and identities that have often constituted a central concern of queer theory and instead exploring the queer elements of contexts in which they are not normally apparent. Engaging with a number of apparently 'non-sexual' topics, including embodiment and fieldwork, regimes of value, gifts and commodities, diversity discourses, biological essentialisms, intersectionality, the philosophy of Bergson and Deleuze, and the repres

Les Touaregs Kel Ferwan nomadisent aux portes de la vieille ville d'Agadez, déplaçant leurs lourdes tentes en nattes de doum. La tente kel ferwan, avec sa base circulaire analogue au cercle de la terre, sa forme sphérique évoquant la voûte céleste, et ses quatre piquets d'angles semblables aux quatre piliers qui, dit-on, soutiennent le ciel aux quatre coins du monde, est censée être une réplique du cosmos. Dieu en donna autrefois le plan aux Touaregs et, depuis, ces tentes toujours reconstruites selon ce modèle immuable et céleste sont transmises de mère en fille. La tente en effet appartient à l'épouse, alors que l'époux, même s'il en est le « maître », n'y est qu'un hôte. Dès qu'il commence à devenir un homme, l'adolescent déserte la tente de sa mère et mène une vie incertaine durant laquelle il partage de précaires abris de nattes avec des compagnons d'âge. Il ne réintègre une tente que lorsqu'il se marie, et un divorce ou le veuvage peut toujours le ramener à la condition précaire de l'adolescent. Cependant, les tentes appartenant à des femmes, et auxquelles toute une symbolique attribue un caractère féminin, se regroupent autour d'hommes puisque chaque campement rassemble un homme, ses fils, son épouse et ses brus. Dans le paradoxe constitué par ces campements d'hommes vivant dans des tentes appartenant à des femmes s'inscrit l'essentiel de la vie sociale touarègue, dont ce livre décrit le déroulement rythmique. The Kel Ferwan Tuareg roam beyond the gates of the old city of Agadez, moving their heavy tents of palm mats. The tent of the Kel Ferwan is held to be a replica of the cosmos : its circular base is analogous to the earth circle, its spherical form recalls that of the celestial vault, and its four stakes are similar to the four pillars said to uphold the sky at the four corners of the earth. Long ago, God gave this design to the Tuareg, and ever since, their tents, always reconstructed according to this unchanging celestial model, have been passed…

Cet ouvrage nous introduit dans un domaine largement méconnu, fascinant pour beaucoup, irritant pour certains, suspect pour d’autres. Les sourciers radiesthésistes de la société rurale franc-comtoise sont des révélateurs d’eau, mais aussi de la société dans ce qu’elle ne dit pas d’elle-même ou, du moins, sans l’intermédiaire de la baguette de coudrier ou du pendule. L’un des intérêts de ce livre est la contribution originale apportée au domaine encore peu exploré d’une anthropologie du corps et du geste. Par ailleurs, il pose la question de la légitimité d’un savoir populaire mis au service de la communauté.

In themid-nineteenth-century United States, as it became increasingly difficult todistinguish between bodies understood as black, white, or Indian; able-bodiedor disabled; and male or female, intense efforts emerged to define theseidentities as biologically distinct and scientifically verifiable in aliterally marked body. Combining literary analysis, legal history, and visualculture, Ellen Samuels traces the evolution of the “fantasy ofidentification”—the powerful belief that embodied social identities are fixed,verifiable, and visible through modern science. From birthmarks andfingerprints to blood quantum and DNA, she examines how this fantasy hascirculated between cultural representations, law, science, and policy to becomeone of the most powerfully institutionalized ideologies of modern society. Yet, as Samuels demonstrates, in every case, the fantasydistorts its claimed scientific basis, substituting subjective language forclaimed objective fact. Fromits early emergence in discourses about disability fakery and fugitive slavesin the nineteenth century to its most recent manifestation in the question ofsex testing at the 2012 Olympic Games, Fantasies of Identification exploresthe roots of modern understandings of bodily identity.
