Ethnopornography
This volume's contributors explore the links among sexuality, ethnography, race, and colonial rule through an examination of ethnopornography-the eroticized observation of the Other for supposedly scientific or academic purposes. With topics that span the sixteenth century to the present in Latin America, the United States, Australia, the Middle East, and West Africa, the contributors show how ethnopornography is fundamental to the creation of ra…
The New Anthropology of Sexuality
Popular images of our discipline often feature a focus on sexuality as one of the defining elements of anthropology. These impressions are only partly true, because there have been substantial periods of time when relatively little was written on the topic. Nonetheless, sexuality has been an intellectual concern of the anthropological tradition since the Age of the Enlightenment. It was involved in the formation of representations about in the 18…

The television and the shrine
The context in which the new mass media are produced, distributed, and consumed in Nigeria differs as radically from the everyday world of the “developed” nations as it does from traditional Nigerian societies of a century ago. Many sociologists of mass communication have failed to address the issue of cultural difference in their accounts of media and their role in the third world. It is suggested that Weber's concepts of “enchantment” and “rati…

The Two Lives of Sara Baartman
The story of Sara Baartman, the so-called Hottentot Venus, who was exhibited in both London and Paris at the beginning of the nineteenth century, is part of the long narrative of scientific racism. In the years preceding and succeeding her return to South Africa from the museum in Paris where her brain and genitals were stored, her story has been told and retold countless times by anti-racist white (and predominantly male) scholars, Pan-African a…
