    • Naissance d’une nouvelle collection chez Cornell University Press : “On Land : New Perspectives in Territory, Development, and Environment”

Editeurs : Wendy Wolford, Nancy Lee Peluso and Michael Goodman

“Land is fundamental. Societies are shaped by the control of, access to, and use of land. Books in this series exhibit a concern with the dynamics of life on the land, particularly as expressed though relations of environment, territoriality, and devel­opment. The key premise is that all three are intimately connected. We welcome submissions addressing all historical periods and employing a variety of regional, interdisciplinary, and theoretical foci and approaches.”

    • Inauguration du Centre for Ethnographic Theory à la SOAS : 29-30 avril 2016

“The Centre for Ethnographic Theory (CET) at SOAS is dedicated to re-instate ethnography as the main heuristic in anthropology and return it to the forefront of conceptual developments in the discipline. The centre’s primary purpose is to help the administration of the work of HAU-N.E.T. (www.haujournal.org/haunet) and the Society of Ethnographic Theory and support the publication of HAU: Journal for Ethnographic Theory and HAU Books.”

    • THE INAUGURAL HOCART LECTURE, 29 avril 2016

"The Original Political Society" by Marshall Sahlins, University of Chicago

(with a comment by David Graeber, LSE)

“Even the so-called egalitarian and loosely structured societies known to anthropology, including hunters such as Inuit or Australian Aborigines, are in structure and practice subordinate segments of inclusive cosmic polities, ordered and governed by divinities, ancestors, species masters, and other such metapersons endowed with life and death powers over the human population. "The Mbowamb spends is whole life completely under the spell and in the company of spirits" (Vicedom and Tischner). "[Arawete] society is not complete on earth: the living are part of the global social structure founded on the alliance between heaven and earth" (Viveiros de Castro). We need something like a Copernican revolution in anthropological perspective: from human society as the center of a universe onto which it projects its own forms--that is to say, from the Durkheimian or structural-functional deceived wisdom--to the ethnographic realities of people's dependence on the encompassing life-giving and death-dealing powers, themselves of human attributes, which rule earthly order, welfare, and existence. For Hobbes notwithstanding, something like the political state is the condition of humanity in the state of nature; there are kingly beings in heaven even where there are no chiefs on earth.”

SEMINAIRES

    • Prof. Ashley Thompson Inaugural Lecture - Double Realities: The Complex Lives of Ancient Khmer Statuary, 5 mai 2016, SOAS

“This lecture will begin with a reflection on the Khmer ‘portrait statue’, considered in the traditional art history of ancient Cambodia to have been a late and peculiar invention of the reign of the last of the great Angkorian kings. However I will challenge this view, and indeed take the double ontology of these sculptures – embodying at once gods and people – to in fact constitute the baseline reality of essentially all Angkorian and post-Angkorian statuary.”

    • “Mass murder in Indonesia and its aftermath” by Gerry van Klinken, 30 mars 2016, KITLV

“Were the 1965 murders committed by the state against its people, or by religious groups within society against communist groups? According to Robert Cribb, that remains the central unsolved riddle in studies of the catastrophe. This presentation attempts to solve that question by adopting an approach not often taken before. Most accounts start on 1 October 1965.

But that is like opening a novel at the back to find out what happens. To understand who the collective actors were that opposed each other in October 1965, and why they were so polarised, we need to go back in time. The key turning point was September 1963. Before that, President Sukarno would not permit open confrontation between Indonesians and Indonesians at the centre of national politics. In that month something happened to create a new dynamic of contention. As it developed, friends became enemies, and started openly calling each other names. Discovering what that 'something' was is the quest today.
