Intimacy and mobility in an era of hardening borders: Gender, reproduction, regulation
Silences and Secrets of Family, Community and the State
In this article, we suggest that silence is often more about remembering than forgetting. We consider ways in which silences can occupy and dominate state discourse, community knowledge, family stories and individual narratives. Drawing on research material from Poland and the Czech Republic in the late socialist and post-socialist periods, we look at ways similar patterns of narrative fusion take place in various contexts in which both the publi…
Household
The household is a central analytical concept in anthropology, particularly in the areas of kinship, gender and generation, and economics. It has also been a contested category at various times and for various reasons. It is sometimes defined spatially, as a house or dwelling, sometimes functionally, as a unit of production and consumption, and sometimes socially, as a group of people, usually related by kinship (including fostering and adoption)…
Migration as Hope: Space, Time, and Imagining the Future
In this paper, I look at different contexts of economic migration in the Polish highlands in the cities of Łódź and Lublin. I consider what social and economic factors make migration an investment and a belief in a better future and what other factors may lead to rejection of the possibility of migration. The periods I am considering are the years of crisis during the late socialist era, the period of structural adjustment following the end of so…
Probing the past and imagining the future
The socialist states of the Soviet Bloc fell, some gently and some far more abruptly and even violently, between 1989 and 1991. In the two decades that have followed, there have been continual attempts by politicians, social scientists, and other academics, as well as by the citizens of these "former socialist countries" themselves, to come to terms with competing memories of what socialism meant, was, and might have been. Simultaneously, efforts…
Global Connections and Emerging Inequalities in Europe: Perspectives on Poverty and Transnational Migration

‘The cows and pigs are his, the eggs are mine’: Women’s domestic economy and entrepreneurial activity in rural Poland
Dangerous Modernities? Innovative Technologies and the Unsettling of Agriculture in Rural Poland
■ This article is concerned with the way people understood socialist modernity in different regions of Poland, and with their responses to the collapse of socialism and with it the unsettling of employment, work and economy generally. The article focuses on stories told in central and southern Poland about technologies and progress associated with socialist industrialization and infrastructure development, and on later stories of technologies and…
Pilfering identity: Górale culture in post-socialist Poland
Naming the House and Naming the Land: Kinship and Social Groups in Highland Poland
La maison pour les Gorales du sud-ouest de la Pologne est non seulement le centre de l'identite sociale et economique, mais aussi une metaphore de la parente tres forte. Cet article defend l'idee que le concept de societes-maison propose par Levi-Strauss s'applique tres bien aux cultures rurales peripheriques de l'Europe contemporaine. La maison, dans ce contexte, ne represente pas une forme transitionnelle entre les societes fondees sur la paren…
Maintenir l'économie domestique: Travail, argent et éthique dans les montagnes polonaises
Wiez, jak jest tutaj jezdzimy do Ameryki na zarobki, ale wracamy do wsi aby zyc. » (« Vous savez comment c'est, ici. Nous allons en Amérique pour gagner de l'argent, mais nous revenons au village pour vivre. ») Ces paroles sont celles d'une górale, originaire des montagnes du sud de la Pologne, qui me parlait de la vie à Chicago. Elle marquait par là la distinction entre le travail salarié du migrant dont le but est de rapporter des dollars, et l…
