Water as Country on the Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands, South Australia
Anangu, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people living in the north-western areas of South Australia, conceptualize changes in the surface of land as evincing the presence of Ancestral power. Rain is one such catalyst of change, though it is by no means a certainty on the Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands. When it does appear, water does not stay long on the surface: it is shimmering and unstable. This chapter examines the nature of various …
Biopower, juridical power and the afterlife of rights: Medical assistance in dying and the Supreme Court of Canada
This article considers how different modalities of power emerge in medical assistance in dying (MAID) cases, particularly with respect to the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in Carter v. Canada (A.G.) [2015]. While juridical rationalities cast the issue of MAID in terms of individual rights, Carter and subsequent legislation distinguishes MAID from assisted suicide through the creation of a regulatory scheme, so that individuals seeking MAID c…
In the red: Substances and materials in the Australian Western Desert
This article discusses the diversity, distribution, and qualities of materials and substances categorized as red among Pitjantjatjara- and Yankunytjatjara-speaking Western Desert Aboriginal people: Anangu. Valued red materials and substances include elements of the encultured landscape - country - such as ochre, timber, food, blood, and fire, alongside cloth and other industrially produced materials. Previous scholarship defines reds among centra…
Color
Although colors are central to our cultural and social interactions with the world, color is a topic that has more often been pushed to the periphery of anthropological study. This entry outlines an anthropology of colors by tracing approaches to color, from interests in perception, linguistics, color naming, evolutionary theories, and semiotics through to the more recent resurgence in material culture studies and the sensorial turn in anthropolo…
Individual Rights and the Negotiation of Governmental Power: The Risk of HIV Transmission and Canadian Criminal Law
In the past 20 years, Canada has seen an increasing tendency to use the criminal law as a means of enforcing norms of safe sex and disclosure among the HIV-positive population – particularly the law of sexual assault. Although the structure of individual rights that underlies the law of sexual assault is conceptually distinct from norms produced through governmental power, this article shows that it is often difficult to draw clear distinctions b…
Bio-Inspired Design of Soft Robotic Assistive Devices: The Interface of Physics, Biology, and Behavior
Wearable assistive robotic devices are characterized by an interface, a meeting place of living tissue and mechanical forces, at which potential and kinetic energy are converted to one or the other form. Ecological scientists may make important contributions to the design of device interfaces because of a functional perspective on energy and information exchange. For ecological scientists, (a) behavioral forms are an assembly of whole functional …
Mutable things: Colours as material practice in the northwest of South Australia
This article details the material colour practices of A n angu (Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people) living in the east of the Western Desert, to show how coloured things have been instrumental in remaking their lives post contact with the colonizers. I argue here that 'colour' is a cultural invention. Brightly coloured things, such as cloth and paints, were eagerly appropriated by Aboriginal people when these were imported during the colon…

Dingo scalping and the frontier economy in the north-west of South Australia
Law and the Foucauldian Wild West in Michael Cimino’s Heaven’s Gate
Classic western films often conceive of the west as existing in a legal void, where the central conflict is a binary one between lawlessness and legalization. The law is a monolith, and the legalization process is linear — a narrative of the west’s inexorable evolution toward a modern state governed by the rule of law. Cimino’s Heaven’s Gate presents a more postmodernist, pluralist conception. There is no grand narrative of legalization; the film…

Claims for Recognition and the Generalized Other: The Reasonable Person and Judgment in Criminal Law
Dans cet article, j'examine l'image de la personne raisonnable dans le domaine de la loi criminelle. J'étudie cette image à l'aide des théories controversées des principes universels abstraits et des particularités de l'individu vivant dans des conditions de diversité. En me basant sur la dichotomie de Seyla Benhabib de l'autre concret et de l'autre généralisé, je soutiens que l'image de la personne raisonnable dans le contexte de la loi criminel…
The Colours of Things
Water as Country on the Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands South Australia
Anangu, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people living in the north-western areas of South Australia conceptualize changes in the surface of land as evincing the presence of ancestral power. Rain is one such catalyst of change, though it is by no means a certainty on the Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands. When it does appear, water does not stay long on the surface: it is shimmering and unstable. This paper examines the nature of various wat…
