Inciting Climate Activism in ‘Secular-Spiritual’ Spaces
Coordinated, interfaith movements offer potential to mobilize civic engagement with the climate crisis and help break from decades of insufficient action. This account explores local to global climate organizing in ‘secular-spiritual’ spaces, and its decompartmentalizing effects upon my roles as ethnographer/scholar, activist, and private person with a spiritual life. I first describe encountering Greenfaith International as an exemplar for organ…
Ethnographies of Religious Responses to Climate Change
While science has guided our understanding of the problem of climate change, and to date policy work has led our responses, many look to religions—both formal and informal—for guidance to confront and navigate the multiple dimensions of the crisis. From heat waves to floods, rising sea levels, climate refugees, and mass extinctions, the threat of climate collapse is increasingly felt and feared. We need new cognitive and emotional capacities to u…
Discussing Empathy and Critique in the Ethnography of Things Military
Whenever we discuss fieldwork experiences with fellow anthropologists working on 'things military', concerns over ethics, politics, and critique pop up as a matter of course.Though important in any field, these matters seem particularly conspicous and insistent in the military field.Meanwhile, anthropology of the military is garnering increasing attention in response to a changing global security landscape.This motivated us to organize this speci…

Victim/volunteer’
How might military service members figure as perpetrators of human rights violations? The question remains a taboo, painful and suppressed topic in United States’ face-to-face communities with strong veteran and active-duty presences. Our 2008–2014 ethnographic, team-based anthropological fieldwork focused on a mid-sized American city and its adjacent army base. We argue that the ambiguities and contradictions between soldiers-as-perpetrators and…
Playing Set® to Discover Qualitative Data Analysis
This article describes the use of an experiential classroom exercise using the card game Set® to introduce concepts related to qualitative approaches to research design and analysis, particularly those based in an interpretive framework. The multiple components of the game, which centers on visual pattern recognition, parallel the “organic” complexity of ethnographic investigation and demonstrate how strong interpretations can be supported with q…
Depending on Context
Few anthropologists or other ethnographers discuss incorporating focus groups into long-term fieldwork. This article demonstrates how they can be a surprisingly enriching addition by attending to their strategic use as supplements to participant observation, surveys and interviews in long-term, mixed method research on gender-based violence and changing codes of masculinity in Northeast Brazil. The author argues two principal points: 1) that shor…

Researching Men's Violence
Criminalising Male Violence in Brazil's Women's Police Stations
In Brazil, the creation of all-female police stations to encourage the denunciation and prosecution of violent crimes against women represents one of several examples of state-institutionalised feminism. This paper recounts the history of the implementation of these innovative institutions, and examines difficulties encountered in this experience, with particular focus on the differences between the predominantly white, middle-class feminists tha…

The Powers and Pitfalls of Gender Essentialism
American Carnival Speech
Several compilations of carnival argot exist: De Belle Starr's Dictionary of Midway Slang: Webster Was a Sucker, published in 1946, and two glossary articles in American Speech, the most recent of which was published in 1966. While reading some of this material was useful as a method of briefing before entering the carnival, this glossary includes only terms that I heard used or that I have reason to believe are in use in the amusement business t…
