A Victim’s Shoe, a Broken Watch, and Marbles
Museum Worthy
Wholly New Visions
Christopher Thorpe breaks new ground through his willingness to build theory with concepts and paradigms that are not normally put together in sociological studies of culture. Specifically, Field Theory and the Yale School of Cultural Sociology come together in a study of the historical development of cultural representations of Italy. The result of this experiment is an innovative theoretical framework and a sweeping historical assessment of lay…
Model Cases
Owning Color
Who has the right to claim color? Through three chromatic cases—International Klein Blue, Vantablack, and Pullman, or UPS Brown—the authors explore the social significance of and commercial demands upon the vividly colorful world we all share
Pixel politics and satellite interpretation in the Syrian war
The pixel is a fundamental element of contemporary visual culture, with pictorial and perceptual properties that affect the interpretation of the digital composition as a whole. Despite its importance, however, the pixel remains a neglected object of analysis in cultural sociology and critical media studies. To advance a framework of pixel studies I present a hermeneutical approach. Empirically, I focus on the pixel’s political and socio-technica…
Fingerprinting, civil codes, and the origins of surveillance culture in the United States
Collaborative Practices in Crisis Science
Crises present the scientific community with unusual demands, including the need for rapid solutions. This can translate into a greatly compressed time frame that curtails data collection and analysis procedures used in 'normal' science. Researchers cope with these demands, while maintaining professional standards and a personal commitment to producing reliable work, by engaging in what we call performed separations. These are practices that allo…
Theory of an art market scandal
Cultural Violence and the Destruction of Human Communities
Sketches in the Theory of Culture
A Site-Level Market Model of the Antiquities Trade
Archaeological looting correlates with a number of problems, including the destruction of stratigraphic data and the damage and loss of artifacts. Looting is also understood to generate revenue, but systematic analysis of this issue is challenged by its opacity: how can we study the economic effects of archaeological looting when the practice is rarely directly observable? To address this problem, we estimate the market value of archaeological si…

Orlando Patterson, his work, and his legacy
Long-range continuities in comparative and historical sociology
Free ports and steel containers
Technologies of containment and storage change the materiality and ontology of archaeological artefacts. This article looks at the relationship between ISO shipping containers and the assemblages of values that constitute the illicit trade in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern artefacts. Concealment and revelation are vital properties of this relationship
