Shared secrecy
In recent decades, anthropologists have scrutinized psychologists' claim that humans process information about others by imputing mental states. The debate remains open whether cross-cultural variability in how people conceive of minds and inner states reflects differences in their folk theories only, or whether it engenders deep-grained psychological differences. In this article, I look at the very onset of children's apprenticeship in emotional…
Playing at etiquette, learning respect in contemporary Middle Gobi (Mongolia)
Jouer à l’étiquette, apprendre le respect dans le Gobi Moyen contemporain (Mongolie).L’étiquette mongole (yos), héritée du mode de vie pastorale, est une « technologie morale » omniprésente qui ordonne les relations selon les valeurs de respect et de calme. À la fin des années 2000, les enfants du Gobi Moyen grandissent dans un contexte de changements économiques et sociaux qui remettent en question les régimes de valeur traditionnels. Ce texte e…
Vent répugnant » et « enfants débiles
Dans le Gobi Moyen, les adultes s'inquiètent que l'ignorance répandue des liens généalogiques ait pour résultat des unions consanguines considérées incestueuses.

Par-delà ces raisons d'ordre biologique par lesquelles la prohibition d'unions consanguines est justifiée, liaisons incestueuses postulées ou avérées font l'objet de convers…
What Makes Children Work? The Participative Trajectory in Domestic and Pastoral Chores of Children in Southern Mongolia
This article presents an ethnographic study of how children in rural southern Mongolia became competent at pastoral and domestic chores in the years 2006 and 2008-2009. Previous research shows that children's spontaneous interest in learning to work in order to be helpful is cross-culturally pervasive. Little attention has, however, been paid to the fluctuating nature of children's motivation. In this article, I argue that like learning, motivati…
Why are Mongolian Infants Treated Like 'Kings
As infants and toddlers, Mongolian children grow up as the centre of attention in their home, promptly taken care of and tenderly indulged. In this paper, I seek to explain why young children in the middle Gobi enjoy a privileged status, in contrast with their status as older children. I show how the physical, emotional and moral peculiarities of infants' and toddlers' personhood converge in conferring upon them 'kingly' prerogatives. I then exam…
