After the World's End, before the Resurrection
In light of Jacques Derrida's writings on death and mourning, it may seem that the Christian teaching that the dead will be raised is a betrayal of others, a failure to take up one's responsibility to testify to those who have died. In conversation with Emmanuel Falque's work on finitude, Martin Heidegger's reading of 1 Thessalonians, and Søren Kierkegaard's reading of Abraham, I respond in two movements to this objection to faith that God will r…
The Look as a Call to Freedom
While the traditional understanding of the look views it in terms of shame and oppression, I read Sartre’s Notebooks for an Ethics with Beauvoir’s Ethics of Ambiguity to argue that the look always gives me the world and inaugurates my freedom. Even the oppressor’s look reveals that I am free and that my existence is conditioned by the existence of other free beings. Because the look gives me the world as the arena within which I act freely, it is…

When the Face Becomes a Carrier
In the midst of a pandemic, what does it mean to see the Other as Other and not as a carrier of the virus? I argue that in seeking a Levinasian response to the pandemic, we must be mindful of the implications of the mechanisms of surveillance and control that, presented as ways to protect the Other, operate by controlling the Other and rendering our relation to the Other increasingly impersonal. Subjected to these mechanisms, the Other becomes a …

Solidarity and the Absurd in Kamel Daoud's Meursault, contre-enquête
This article examines Kamel Daoud’s treatment of solidarity and the absurd in Meursault, contre-enquête and posits that the question of how to live in solidarity with others is central to the novel, although the word ‘solidarity’ never appears in it. After recalling Camus’s discussion of the absurd in Le Mythe de Sisyphe and of solidarity in L’Homme révolté, the article examines the manner in which Haroun, Daoud’s narrator and the brother of the …
Accessibility for business and pleasure
This forum is dedicated to maximizing the success of HCI practitioners within the frenetic world of product and service design. It focuses on UX strategy approaches, leadership, management techniques, and above all the challenge of bringing HCI to peer-level status with longstanding business disciplines such as marketing and engineering. --- Daniel Rosenberg, Editor
Critical Anthropology of Global Health “Takes a Stand” Statement
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010—the U.S.'s first major health care reform in over half a century—has sparked new debates in the United States about individual responsibility, the collective good, and the social contract. Although the ACA aims to reduce the number of the uninsured through the simultaneous expansion of the private insurance industry and government‐funded Medicaid, critics charge it merely expands rather than reforms the exist…

Stigmatized Biologies
Severe early childhood caries (ECC) can leave lasting effects on children's physical development, including malformed oral arches and crooked permanent dentition. This article examines the way that the ECC of Mexican American farmworker children in the United States sets them up for lasting dental problems and social stigma as young adults. We examine the role of dietary and environmental factors in contributing to what we call "stigmatized biolo…
Living Buddhist Statues in Early Medieval and Modern Japan
A study of the surprising functions of Buddhist statues, which helped disseminate Buddhist beliefs among the populace in Tenth- and Eleventh-century Japan. Using ethnographic data drawn from present-d

El tratamiento diferencial de los inmigrantes cubanos y mexicanos en el sistema de salud pública de Estados Unidos
Se examina la participación del sistema de salud pública de Estados Unidos en una construcción social más amplia, de los inmigrantes cubanos como dignos y de los mexicanos como indignos de los beneficios de la salud pública. Se muestra que la privatización acrecentó la preocupación sobre qué grupos sociales son "dignos" de los beneficios públicos. En particular, se expone la adopción por parte de Nuevo México de un sistema de salud privado para s…
The influence of the Ōjōyōshū in late tenth- and early eleventh-century Japan
Scholars of Heian Buddhism frequently comment that because of the influence of Genshin's Ojdydshu, Pure Land thought and practice spread rap idly to all levels of society in the eleventh century. This assertion has become so common that it is rarely questioned. In this article, I investigate eleventhcentury sources, such as novels and diaries of aristocrats, and prove that the Ojdydshu is mentioned infrequently. The Eiga monogatari, the only text…

This paper explores the public health system's differential construction of Mexican and Cuban immigrants' "deservingness" of citizenship benefits and its preparation of them for different roles in U.S. society. Civic institutions such as the public health care system are charged with inculcating normative behavior in immigrants and instilling in them different conceptions about their rights and responsibilities. Faced with limited resources under…
The Spanish Redemption
Where Is the "Mexican" in "New Mexican"? Enacting History, Enacting Dominance in the Santa Fe Fiesta
What are the implications of public commemorations of the Southwest's Spanish colonization, and do such celebrations sanction the conquest's continuing legacy of racial inequality? This paper examines such questions by way of an analysis of the Santa Fe Fiesta, an annual celebration of New Mexico's 1692 re-conquest from the Pueblo Indians by Spanish General Don Diego de Vargas. The Santa Fe Fiesta, which uses living actors to publicly re-enact th…
