Cosmic imperatives
This introductory essay to the special issue, 'Cosmic Imperatives: Critical Thinking Beyond the Earthbound', navigates differences between its co-authors/co-editors to ask what critical and political imperatives emerge from human technological engagements with the nonterrestrial cosmos, prompted by coalescing corporate and state-led plans for the colonization of other cosmic places. Working from the disciplines of geography and anthropology and f…
Afterword
In this afterword, I return to a friendly disagreement between myself and my co-editor, Arun Saldanha, during the writing of the introductory essay of this special issue to make the case that a critical, materialist approach to human presence on Mars demands starting from the material facts of Martian planetary conditions. I argue that the differences between Mars and Earth render terrestrial histories of colonialism, labor, and dissent inadequat…
Vers un commun numérique de l’art public
En 2023, la Maison MONA, un OBNL culturel, met en place une initiative sur les données ouvertes et liées dans le secteur de l’art public. Le projet entrepris entend explorer les usages et les possibilités des LOD, en identifiant les initiatives actuelles, les besoins et les enjeux propres au secteur de l’art public, les défis spécifiques à la structuration et à l’utilisation de données culturelles, et en sensibilisant les artistes et les travaill…
Comorbidity and Cancer Disease Rates among Those at High-Risk for Alzheimer’s Disease
(1) Importance: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is complex and only partially understood. Analyzing the relationship between other more treatable or preventable diseases and AD may help in the prevention and the eventual development of treatments for AD. Risk estimation in a high-risk population, rather than a population already affected with AD, may reduce some bias in risk estimates. (2) Objective: To examine the rates of various comorbidities and can…
Uncommon Futures
In the immediate aftermath of the Cold War, Munn (1992) argued that anthropology had neglected the future as a temporal focus. This concern continues to be echoed by anthropologists, even as a review of post-Cold War anthropology reveals that the future has become a recurrent, dominant temporality in the field. Reviewing texts from the past quarter-century that provide a diagnostic at the intersection of the anthropology of futurity and the futur…
Gravity fixes
What shifts might emerge in theorizations of and debates over "the human"-as a historically specific entity or as nominating a general species difference-if Earth and its variable conditions no longer form the habitual grounds for these arguments? To answer this question, I examine two sites proposed by outer space settlement advocates: the surface of Mars, and the interior of a massive, rotating cylindrical space settlement called Island Three. …
For the machine
What if I wrote this response from a perspective off-planet, not above Earth but from some other place, off to the side: say a camp at the base of Olympus Mons on Mars or in artificial gravity on a
Atmosphere
Since the 1950s, views of Earth from above have been critiqued for provoking detachment from and decontextualization of human, terrestrial concerns. These critiques thus establish Earth's enveloping atmosphere as the ultimate context for meaningful and grounded accounts of humanness, and outer space as a site for abstract, generalizable knowledge. But in outer space, the explanatory work done by "context" is put in question, because spacefaring h…
Relational Space
Anthropology off the Earth opens to new questions and futures for our disciplinary project and reach, while at the same time compelling revisits to classic sites of anthropological inquiry and critique. Taking as a given that human labor and imagination are neither limitable to, nor severable from, terrestrial-scapes of knowledge and practice, we argue that conceptually and materially working with outer space offers a unique opportunity to engage…

sex-reassignment surgery (SRS)?1 I ask this apparently counterintuitive question—framed in terms of choice — as a male non-transexual who has conducted ethnographic research on transgender and transexual politics over the past twenty years. This has been a period in which transexual ity in particular has become a central trope for theorizing gender, sexu ality, embodiment, and most importantly for this essay, human agency. This development is in …
Exit Strategy
Commercial NewSpace industries are increasingly significant players in outer space. The temptation is to see NewSpace as merely the next step in neoliberal capitalism's search for new profits and markets. However, finance capitalism's emphasis on short-term investor "exit strategies" is actually hostile to both the cosmological vision and entrepreneurial practice of NewSpacers, who seek a different "exit strategy": to escape Earth's gravity and e…
Extreme
This paper introduces a special collection of Anthropological Quarterly for examining "the extreme" in contemporary modernity. Drawing upon sites of political, scientific, and economic engagement that source specifically to the extraterrestrial, we argue that the figure of the extreme shapes an analytic of limits and ever-opening horizons-epistemological and physical-provoking new understandings of humanness, environment, temporality, and of inte…

The calculus of pain
In addressing Nancy Scheper-Hughes's (1995) call for 'the primacy of the ethical' in anthropological research, this paper complicates anthropologists' ethical position by exploring a range of practices seen as harmful or violent by transgender-identified people. I argue that an ethical stance on the violence experienced by one's study participants is deeply complicated by what comes to count for participants as harm and violence. By investigating…

Engendering Sexuality in Brazil and the Southern Philippines
Gender and sexuality are hot topics in contemporary social theory and anthropology, and no topic is hotter than that of the newly emerging category of transgender. As with any social category, transgender has its own history and cultural location, but it is being used increasingly in cross-cultural descriptions of people whose expression or subjectivity does not match their ascribed gender. Sometimes referred to as third (cf. Herdt 1994), such ca…
