This article traces the fraught history of the file system's adoption by the Japanese Public Prosecutor's Office (PPO) from the late 1940s to the early 1950s, when the U.S. General Headquarters (GHQ), the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, decentralized the PPO's power and transformed it into a 'democratic' judicial agency. This is also a postwar history of the introduction of Taylorism-derived scientific management to white collar office w…
"As if I were otherwise" metapragmatics of ego-splitting and virtualization, nanchatte
Nanchatte is a Japanese gag expression, whose literal English translation could be "I have just completed the saying of something like what I have just said." Its meaning partially overlaps with English expressions such as "Just kidding," or "I am just saying." Its felicitous execution is often intended to "crack up" listeners, to take the edge off an impression of formality, arrogance, aggression, austerity, or bluntness, to break the ice, mitig…

Michael Silverstein, the Charles F. Grey Distinguished Service Professor of Anthropology, Linguistics, and Psychology at the University of Chicago, passed away on Friday, July 17, 2020, after a year-long battle with brain cancer. This tribute essay reflects upon Silverstein's distinguished contributions to contemporary linguistic anthropology and sociolinguistics
"Redrawing the boundary of "speech community
This essay contemplates how we adapt existing sociolinguistic theoretical concepts, methodologies, and analytical units to the world we live in today. Regardless of one's location on the globe, our lives are profoundly affected by increasingly intense global interconnections and, at the same time, equally intense differentiation of space attending late global capitalism and the evolving nation-state system. While sociolinguistics has attended the…
Vicarious Language
This highly original study provides an entirely new critical perspective on the central importance of ideas about language in the reproduction of gender, class, and race divisions in modern Japan. Focusing on a phenomenon commonly called "women's language," in modern Japanese society, Miyako Inoue considers the history and social effects of this language form. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in a contemporary Tokyo corporation to study the ever…
Word for Word
Verbatim-word for word-is assumed to be a text that faithfully captures and represents a discursive event that took place in time and space, which would otherwise be ephemeral and unrepeatable. In modern societies, verbatim stands in for durable indexicality and materializes the social epistemology of evidence, accountability, and authenticity. Today's ubiquitous presence of recording technologies amplifies the conviction that the production of v…
Where has "Japanese women's language" gone
During the 1990s Japan's economy, inflated by speculation, collapsed and a decades-long recession began. Contributing to this special section that revisits the paradigm of language and political economy, this essay discusses the new semiotic condition that has emerged in postbubble Japanese society. Taking a cue from Gilles Deleuze's notion of control societies, I will specifically focus on the fate of "Japanese women's language," or a set of spe…

A new form of collaboration in cultural anthropology
Experiments in collaboration open new investigative possibilities for cultural anthropologists. In this report, we use our research on matsutake mushrooms to show the promise of collaborative experiments for ethnographers of scale making, global connection, and human-nonhuman relations. Anna Tsing introduces. Mogu Mogu (Timothy Choy and Shiho Satsuka) argue that the mushroomic figure of mycorrhizal life illuminates workings of capital and power, …

Language and gender in an age of neoliberalism
We live at a time when neoliberalism – market fundamentalism – appears to organize not only global and national political-economies but also ‘non-economic’ spheres, including one’s personal sense of identity, interests, happiness, hopes, and even the subjective value of life and self. And this article examines the significance of neoliberalism for the critical study of language and gender. Central to my discussion is the concept of neoliberal gov…

What Does Language Remember
This article explores the production of naturalized temporality and its ideological effects by focusing on the semiotic process of indexical order. Linguistic practice is linked with the exercise of power not only by constructing intersubjective social reality in an ongoing communicative process, but also, and perhaps more powerfully, by constructing an historical narrative that logically unfolds from the (naturalized) indexical order. Drawing on…

The Listening Subject of Japanese Modernity and His Auditory Double
Gender, Language, and Modernity
Women's language" is a critical cultural category and an unavoidable part of practical social knowledge in contemporary Japan. In this article, I examine the genealogy of Japanese women's language by locating its emergence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when state formation, capitalist accumulation, industrialization, and radical class reconfiguration were taking off. I show how particular speech forms were carved out as women's langua…
Japanese‐Americans in St. Louis
This article deals with aspects of the resettlement processes of Japanese‐ Americans in St. Louis. Having gone mere from internment camps in the 1940s, they have experienced rapid upward mobility in a city highly polarized along white/black lines. Several factors in the migrants themselves and in the socioeconomic and ethnic structure of the city help explain how local Japanese‐ Americans were accepted as honorary whites. The article also explore…
