Memory Fields
George Orwell's novel1984raises a key question in the politics of memory: how far can the nation-state reach into minds and reshape personal memories? Addressing it requires a theoretical framework that can encompass public and personal representations of the past. I develop the conceptmemory field, defined as the set of public and personal memories associated with a putatively past event, object, or situation. The memory field associated with th…

Globalizing Japan: Ethnography of the Japanese Presence in Asia, Europe, and America
The Problem of Missing Persons: Methodological Notes on Japanese-Brazilian Identities
History and anthropology continue to edge closer to each other. Culture, the anthropologist's stock in trade, has become an indispensable component of historians' accounts. For their part, anthropologists increasingly emphasize cultural change. Attuned to cultural relativism, they have readily made the further leap into historical relativism. One might say that both disciplines are trying to free themselves from ethno- and tempocentrism

Restaurante 51 offers Brazilians familiar food, media, and sociability, at the same time implicitly confirming feelings of loneliness, distance, and dislocation. I emphasize that the displaced Brazili…

The Hegemony of Discontent
This article discusses the political significance of common sense, an issue originally broached by Gramsci. It has two objectives: first, to develop a theoretical concept of common sense that recognizes its emotional dimension; and second, to show that commonsense thought and feeling need not tranquilize a restive populace but can even incite violent, if contained, rebellion. The discussion is grounded in a detailed case study of an election and …
