Entrevista a Claudio Lomnitz
Interview with Dr. Claudio Lomnitz by Dr. Renée de la Torre, for Encartes vol. 7 no. 13. Dr. Renée comments: I had the opportunity to interview him in Guadalajara on April 19, 2023 for Encartes and I thought of focusing the talk on his reflections on the challenges, dilemmas and paradoxes of producing anthropological knowledge at the intersection of different fields and with different languages and different repertoires. What stands out most abou…
Amlo’s Mexican Time (Business Is Good!)
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has promoted himself as a historical figure equal to the great heroes of Mexico’s national mythology. His populist rhetoric denigrates political opponents as enemies of the people. But more than two years into his term, his promises of economic growth have failed to materialize, partly because of his attachment to austerity

The Ethos and Telos of Michoacán's Knights Templar
This essay is an ethnographic exploration of the ethos and mores of Mexico's contemporary drug culture. It uses temporal directionality (telos) to interpret the idiosyncratic symbols and rituals developed for the warrior order known as the Caballeros Templarios or Knights Templar cartel (Michoacán). The essay shows that Mexican drug organizations, in their dedication to the business of privatizing public goods, are thus at the same time parallel …
An Archaeology of the Political
“The political” is a concept that was originally put forward by Carl Schmitt in the 1930s. It is related to his concept of sovereignty (i.e., “the one who decides in the state of exception”) and refers to “the original instituting act of every political-institutional order” (p. xvii). The notions of sovereignty and the political have had a postfascist theoretical revival during the past few decades in the work of a number of philosophers and soci…
Comentario breve
Will the end of neoliberalism, or at least its outright decline, bring about a renaissance of anthropology? Perhaps, but for that to happen we will have to do more than go out and demonstrate. Although I sympathize with the manifesto of the anthropologists of Poland transcribed by Gustavo Lins in his interesting article, there are obstacles that anthropology will have to overcome to achieve the relevance it currently deserves

Indigenous peoples boxed in by Brazil's political crisis
Agribusiness has unprecedented leverage over highly unpopular Brazilian president Michel Temer, who is faced with several corruption charges and is struggling for political survival. In a little over one year, the agribusiness lobby and its allies have managed to erode thirty years of human rights and conservation laws. Indigenous peoples and their territorial rights are among the main targets of such policies, and there is no resolution to the s…

Mexico’s First Lynching
This article offers a detailed study of a media event—Arnulfo Arroyo’s attempt on the person of Porfirio Díaz, on September 16, 1897. It shows how the modernization of journalism and its subtle connections to the Díaz dictatorship came together in such a way to inflect and infect the whole of Mexican political society with a hermeneutics of suspicion. Crime and criminality, recognized in the period as key elements of positivist interpretations of…
Time and Dependency in Latin America Today
Since the 1980s Latin Americans have had acute difficulties placing their national societies in time-with various narratives competing among each other as available, but often unconvincing, framing devices. Progressive and developmentalist narratives generally lost traction, but emancipatory rhetoric, too, has tended to cede to sentimental gesture and gesticulation, even though it benefits from the backwind of the disasters that were wrought by t…

Anti-Semitism and the Ideology of the Mexican Revolution
This essay traces the development of the ideology that cast Mexico's prerevolutionary technocratic elite, the so-called científicos, as the masterminds of the country's ruination. It shows that anti-científico discourse took the shape of anti-Semitic ideology, even though there were no Jews in the group. Anti-científico rhetoric was first created by applying anti-Semitic invective taken directly from the Dreyfus Affair. The implications for Mexic…

Cronótopos de uma nação distópica
Este artigo desenvolve uma nova abordagem sobre a antropologia e a história de fronteiras nacionais. Ele propõe uma tipologia e uma caracterização fenomenológica de duas formas de se atravessar a fronteira que surgiram paralelamente a uma nova relação de dependência econômica e política entre o México e os Estados Unidos da América no final do século XIX. Tais novas modalidades de se atravessar a fronteira envolvem o desenvolvimento de novos "cro…

Intellectuals and Nationalism
To what extent are intellectuals artisans of nationalism? In this chapter we review past and present anthropological research that has helped to reveal the agency of intellectuals in the projects and operations of states and nations. If the intellectual has long been defined in the Marxian-Gramscian tradition as a social actor with a special praxical investment in ways and forms of knowing, then what we discuss as "intellectualism," the social fo…

Il refuse de mettre l'accent sur la production de marginalite car l'image d'un centre stable et urbain est pure illusion. En realite, le partage est fluctuant, et les pratiques et signes culturels associes a l'idee de sophistication du centre aussi bien que leurs contraires s'inscrivent dans des discours locaux …
