Historical Materialist Anthropology and The World of Sugar
Ulbe Bosma’s book on the global history of sugar offers fundamentally new insights into the nexus of technology, corporate capital, government policies, and ideologies of progress in the making of commodity frontiers. From the perspective of historical materialist anthropology, it is important to broaden the research agenda even further. With reference to Maussian historical personae in the making of global capitalism, for example, a long history…
The Anthropology of Special Economic Zones (Free Ports, Export Processing Zones, Tax Havens)
Special economic zones (SEZs) are a key manifestation of neoliberal globalization. As of 2020, more than 150 nations operated more than 5,400 zones. The combined workforce of factories and service industries in bonded warehouses, export processing zones (EPZs), free trade zones (FTZs), science parks (SPs), regional development zones (RDZs), economic corridors (ECs), and other types of SEZs exceeds one hundred million. These figures include tax ha…

Industry and Manufacturing
The 2010s have seen abundant predictions that African economies may soon industrialize on a large scale. Leading economists such as Justin Lin identify low wages and emerging infrastructures as important locational advantages for African nations to benefit from ‘flying geese’ effects, which will come in the form of industrial relocations from middle-income countries such as China, India, Brazil and Russia. Then again, the assumption that now it i…

Export Processing Zones / Special Economic Zones
Export processing zones and special economic zones have become the dominant way for postcolonial nations to attract and regulate manufacturing industries. From their beginnings in Puerto Rico in the late 1940s, the zones have spread across the globe so that today they host most textiles, garments, consumer electronics industries, and increasingly heavier manufacturing, tourism, and financial services. This entry gives an overview of anthropology'…
M arx, K arl (1818–83)
This entry gives an overview of the life of Karl Marx and of how his work as an academic and as public intellectual laid some of the foundations for the emergence of anthropology as a discipline. It considers Marx's collaborations with Friedrich Engels and how their individual and joint writings have lasting impact on economic, historical, and political anthropology—for example, in regard to the concepts of fetishism, modes of production, ontolog…
Proper property or anti-fascist anthropology? The Trojan Horse of possession-based economies and modes of production as its Achilles' heel
This commentary discusses Julien-François Gerber and Rolf Steppacher's proposal for an anthropological engagement with the basic principles of possession-based economies. The empirical and analytical validity of the theory of ownership is dismissed. That theory mistranslates classics of economic anthropology into economics. The modes of production approach reveals that the theory of ownership's core claim is false - capitalism is not based on leg…

Structural contingencies and untimely coincidences in the making of neoliberal India
This article introduces the concepts of untimely coincidences of modes of production and structural contingencies in global capitalism to the study of neoliberalism in India and beyond. I argue that these concepts are crucial to revive a historical anthropology, which shows that neoliberalism is one of several possible manifestations of capitalism, past and present. The analytical gain of such a revised view on neoliberalism is then exemplified b…
Chagos Islanders in Mauritius and the UK. Forced displacement and onward migration by Jeffery, Laura
Dialectical Anthropology
This article explores the relationship between labor unions and labor precarity in Bangladesh's garment industry.After a string of high-profile factory disasters-including the 2013 collapse of the Rana Plaza garment factory building-Bangladeshi labor unions have played a central role in new global initiatives to improve factory safety.These initiatives have provided an opportunity for unions to influence the governance of labor standards in a con…
Vom Nutzen der Geschichte, vom Wissen der Akteure und vom Nachteil der Multi-Sited Ethnography – Welthandel, Wirtschaftskrise und Standortwettbewerb in Mauritius Anfang des 21. Jahrhunderts
Gegenstand des Artikels sind Reaktionen auf eine Wirtschaftskrise, die den Inselstaat Mauritius erfasste, weil Betriebe der äußerst wichtigen Textil- und Bekleidungsbranche ihre Produktion nach China, Indien und auf das afrikanische Festland verlagerten. Anhand der Analyse von zwei besonders markanten öffentlichen Ereignissen, während derer unterschiedliche Interpretationen der historischen Einbettung des Inselstaates in die Weltwirtschaft formul…
Tourism and Scale
Keywords: commentary, tourism, culture, economy, ethnography, globalization, scale, tourism, rituals and life cycle events, Europe, Germany, World Cup, soccer, football
Einleitende Überlegungen
Der folgende Text stellt die drei Beiträge dieses Sonderbandes des Sociologus kurz vor. Zudem werden einige Grundlagen des diesen Band leitenden Themenkomplexes “Wissen um Veränderung“ eingeführt. Neben der Frage nach der Datierung von Epochengrenzen werden die Fragen der Reichweite sozialwissenschaftlicher Theorien und der problematischen Verschränkung von sozialwissenschaftlicher Theoriebildung mit hegemonialen Diskursen, die eine Neuartigkeit …
Projects of scale-making
Scale has recently entered social anthropology as both a unit of analysis and a heuristic tool. This paper highlights the applicability to the anthropology of tourism of what has been identified as “projects of scale-making” by Tsing (2000) and respective “modes of incorporation” by Glick Schiller, Caglar and Guldbrandsen (2006). Because tourism is one of the central industries shaping present-day understandings of what is global and what is loc…
