Deconstructing katakana: Script, norm and variation in contemporary Japanese sociolinguistic interaction
This introductory article outlines the aims and scope of a special issue devoted to the evolving roles of the katakana script in Japanese language and society. Adopting an interdisciplinary sociolinguistic perspective, the special issue examines the diversification of katakana use across sites such as public signage, popular media, online forums, advertising, and foreign language education.

Introduction: Research on Japan in (post-) Covid times
No sleep, no dreams: Imaginings and expectations in online student mobility to Japan during the Covid-19 crisis
The Covid-19 pandemic radically accelerated the digitalization dynamics that were already in motion in many areas of society, from teleworking to e-commerce, online leisure and e-learning. This resulted in a contradictory redefinition of place as a heterotopic site in which different times and spaces were simultaneously juxtaposed. In the case of higher education, universities had to suddenly digitalize their classes in a broader attempt to ensur…

The prevailing socio-political unrest – from the massive student occupation of university campuses, to the campaign against Jap…
The world is a room
It is well accepted that the discussion about intellectual centers and peripheries has a reductionist character that conceals the complexity of a globalizing world. Despite this, we cannot ignore that in the academic history of anthropology central traditions and hegemonic discourses were established, while others were rendered as peripheral or marginal. This historical context has set a disciplinary framework of inequalities and imbalances that …
Imágenes de Hungría. Registro visual e investigación etnográfica en Hungría
El artículo repasa la historia de la fotografía etnográfica húngara, exponiendo las diferentes escuelas —como el denominado «estilo húngaro»—, instituciones y fotógrafos que, desde un punto de vista cada vez más antropológico, han recogido en imágenes los distintos aspectos de la cultura de ese país. Se analizan también los últimos proyectos audiovisuales, fílmicos y fotográficos, llevados a cabo por los más prestigiosos investigadores en antropo…
