Technologized Images, Technologized Bodies
The modern world is saturated with images. Scientific knowledge of the human body (in all its variety) is highly dependent on the technological generation of visual data - brain and body scans, x-rays, diagrams, graphs and charts. New technologies afford scientists and medical experts new possibilities for probing and revealing previously invisible and inaccessible areas of the body. The existing literature has been successful in mapping the impa…

Neglected Transportation Infrastructure
Verkhnemarkovo, a small Siberian town located on an oil field in Russia’s Irkutsk region, is plagued by bad roads and limited mobility. This article explores the relationship between corporate social responsibility and the wellbeing of individuals and communities, with a focus on transport and mobility infrastructure. Some oil companies, such as Irkutsk Oil Company, are tied to the sustainability standards of international financial institutions.…
Landscape and Commerce
The Southern Peruvian Andes is a region where the mountainous landscape memorializes centuries of political history. This chapter sets out to explore how Andean peoples, aware of historical process and of their own social disadvantage in wider national and global contexts, have over time reproduced a sense of the powerful agency of the land and of the mountains. The sense of landscape as the locus of enduring and historically charged agency is fa…

Waste Futures
Drawing on an ethnographic study of attempts to bring new waste infrastructures into being in the Cusco region of Peru, this article considers the specific material and social articulations that such infrastructures imply. The ethnography explores the attempts by engineers, municipal functionaries, and local communities to engage 'waste' both as decomposing matter and as material resource. The article traces the tensions that emerge in experiment…
Infrastructures and Social Complexity
Contemporary forms of infrastructural development herald alternative futures through their incorporation of digital technologies, mobile capital, international politics and the promises and fears of enhanced connectivity. In tandem with increasing concerns about climate change and the anthropocene, there is further an urgency around contemporary infrastructural provision: a concern about its fragility, and an awareness that these connective, rela…

Hybrids of Modernity
Hybrids of Modernity considers the relationship between three western modernist institutions: anthropology, the nation state and the universal exhibition. It looks at the ways in which these institutions are linked, in how they are engaged in the objectification of culture, and in how they have themselves become objects of cultural theory, the targets of critics who claim that despite their continuing visibility these are all institutions with qu…

The Topological Quality of Infrastructural Relation
This article seeks to address how topological approaches to cultural change might be combined with ethnographic analysis in order to suggest new ways of thinking empirically about the dynamic political and moral spaces that infrastructural systems create and sustain. The analytical focus is on how diverse notions of relationality and connectivity are mobilized in the production of infrastructural systems that sustain the capacity of 'state-space'…

Cementing Relations
This article sets out to analyze how concrete is implicated in the transformation of public space in provincial Peru. While concrete enhances a state's capacity to produce reliable, predictable structures, there are also significant limits in relation to its connective capacity in both the material and social domains. Ethnographic attention to the relational dynamics of concrete reveals how its promise to operate as a generic, homogeneous, and ab…

Mujeres que no hablan castellano
Los hechos y las prácticas descritas en este documento sucedieron en Ocongate, un pequeño pueblo andino en el sur del Perú. Es un lugar de mucha actividad, situado al borde de una carretera importante, aunque no asfaltada, que conecta la sierra del sur del Perú con las tierras tropicales de la Amazonía. Trabajadores migrantes, provisiones y materia prima pasan diariamente en los camiones que hacen ruta de Puerto Maldonado a las ciudades del sur d…

Género, comunidad y confrontación
Introducción Fue en el cumpleaños de Jorge. Las mujeres habían dedicado toda la mañana a preparar la comida especial para la ocasión. Jorge había llevado las vacas a pastear en las alturas mientras los demás hombres estaban ocupados por su lado en tareas similares, pero cerca de las 2 de la tarde todo el mundo se había concentrado dentro de la pequeña cocina. Nos servimos unos cuantos vasitos de trago, mezcla de alcohol con agua, y Juana pasó una…
Borrachera y memoria
Hablar, del alcohol en una cultura chula tropieza con una doble dificultad por el mero hecho de tocar un objeto muy familiar, prosaico, común, y por lo tanto poco estudiado y aún menos pensado. Id primer obstáculo remite al filtro de nuestra propia experiencia cultural, histórica pues, del alcohol. Dado que cada pueblo o sociedad tiene su relación privilegiada con cierto alcohol (el vino en la tradición mediterránea, la cerveza en la Europa norte…
