Abstract

Kann ein philosophisches Konzept dazu dienen, vergangenheitspolitische Debatten besser zu verstehen? Alexander Hasgall nähert sich dieser Frage anhand der (Nach-)Geschichte der letzten Militärdiktatur Argentiniens an. Er zeigt auf, wie den Opfern massiver Menschenrechtsverletzungen durch Anerkennung neue Formen von Subjektivität zugeschrieben werden können, zugleich aber neue Herrschaftsformen entstehen können. Die mit dem Ende der Ära Kirchner einhergehenden vergangenheitspolitischen Verwerfungen stellen dabei einen besonderen Aktualitätsbezug her. Die Studie richtet sich sowohl an Wissenschaftler_innen als auch an Praktiker_innen, welche sich mit der Frage nach einem angemessenen Umgang mit dem Erbe von Gewaltsystemen beschäftigen. »Hasgall schliesst mit seinem Brückenschlag zwischen Philosophie und Vergangenheitspolitik eine wesentliche Forschungslücke in der deutschen Forschungslandschaft. Seine Ergebnisse ergänzen zudem neuere Erkenntnisse aus der Sozialpsychologie. Sein Werk stellt einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur internationalen Transformations- und Versöhnungsforschung dar und ist nicht nur für Akademiker und Praktiker, sondern auch für politische Entscheidungsträger empfehlenswert.« Maria Palme, Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Geschichte, 69/2 (2019) Besprochen in: Handbook of latin american studies, 74 (2020), Franz Obermeier

Abstract

Politics under Salvador Allende was a battle fought in the streets. Everyday attempts to "ganar la calle" allowed a wide range of urban residents to voice potent political opinions. Santiaguinos marched through the streets chanting slogans, seized public squares, and plastered city walls with graffiti, posters, and murals. Urban art might only last a few hours or a day before being torn down or painted over, but such activism allowed a wide range of city dwellers to participate in the national political arena. These popular political strategies were developed under democracy, only to be reimagined under the Pinochet dictatorship. Ephemeral Histories places urban conflict at the heart of Chilean history, exploring how marches and protests, posters and murals, documentary film and street photography, became the basis of a new form of political change in Latin America in the late twentieth century.

Abstract

Praying and Preying offers one of the rare anthropological monographs on the Christian experience of contemporary Amazonian indigenous peoples, based on an ethnographic study of the relationship between the Wari', inhabitants of Brazilian Amazonia, and the Evangelical missionaries of the New Tribes Mission. Vilaça turns to a vast range of historical, ethnographic and mythological material related to both the Wari' and missionaries perspectives and the author's own ethnographic field notes from her more than 30-year involvement with the Wari' community. Developing a close dialogue between the Melanesian literature, which informs much of the recent work in the Anthropology of Christianity, and the concepts and theories deriving from Amazonian ethnology, in particular the notions of openness to the other, unstable dualism, and perspectivism, the author provides a fine-grained analysis of the equivocations and paradoxes that underlie the translation processes performed by the different agents involved and their implications for the transformation of the native notion of personhood.
