追寻村落--对两种不同的人类学田野研究的省思

人类学视野下的村落研究所引起的争议,促使人类学者不断地反省和思考人类学田野研究的理论和方法."回访"与"超越"是两种不同的研究路径,也是对人类学田野研究的有益省思."回访"不仅仅是延伸了先驱者作品的学术生命和意义,更重要的是对过程中的社区进行新知识基础上的再诠释.而"超越"所展现的学术意义则不仅仅在于努力赋予人类学视野下村落研究的合法性,还在于在超越中使其得到持续发展.

关于加强公安情报信息工作的几点思考

公安情报信息工作是整个公安工作的根基。就目前来看,公安情报信息工作还存在一些制约发展的不利因素。对此,必须以公安基层基础建设年为契机,大力加强公安情报信息工作,构建跨警种、跨地区的公安大情报信息系统格局,以切实发挥公安情报信息在公安实战中的作用。     

全球化语境中的中国妇女学建设

中国妇女学全球视野与其行动的均衡点决定中国妇女学的生命力,即妇女学能否在国内广泛渗透和扎根,成为社会机体的一个有机组成部分,从而影响、改变民众的日常生活、行为、观念,而不仅仅停留在教学与科研环节,以学术为壁垒,把妇女学看作是精英妇女的自留地。妇女学发展需要兼具两个功能,一个是专业化,突出对专业人员的提高功能,另一个是通俗化,强调对公众的普及功能。中国妇女学建设是手段,而不是目的,是开始,而不是结束。

The specter of racism: exploring White racial anxieties in the context of policing

The connection between policing and whiteness remains an undertheorized area of police studies. In this article, I explore ordinary policing behaviors through the lens of critical whiteness studies in an effort to understand how White police officers actively make, or fail to make, meaning of race in the context of their work. Drawing on ethnographic work with three police departments in the Midwest, I describe the racial anxieties and insecurities White officers express at the possibility of being viewed as engaging in racializing behaviors. Of particular interest is the power of the crime control focus orienting everyday policing practice in displacing attention from the many ways race, and particularly whiteness, matters in policing. I conclude by discussing the implications this line of inquiry holds for making discussions about the role of white privilege in policing more productive.     

Subalterns and the State in the Longue Durée: Notes from “The Rebellious Century” in the Bhil Heartland

Abstract

Focusing on recent debates over the ways in which subaltern groups engage with the state in India, the article proposes that it is imperative to historicise our conceptions of subaltern politics in India. More specifically, the argument is made that it is imperative to recognise that subaltern appropriations of the institutions and discourses of the state have a longer historical lineage than what is often proposed in critical work on popular resistance in rural India. The article presents a detailed analysis of Adivasi rebellions in colonial western India and argues that these took the form of a contentious negotiation of the incorporation of tribal communities into an emergent “colonial state space.” The conclusion presents a sketch of a Gramscian approach to the study of how subaltern politics proceeds in and through determinate state–society relations.     

Towards resonant places: reflections on the organizing strategy of the International Transport Workers’ Federation

This article explores a geographical dilemma at the heart of union organizing in transnational corporations; namely, how to circulate union power across different spaces when existing labour struggles are generally restricted to single sites. Reflecting on the experience of the International Transport Workers' Federation, this paper argues that single site campaigns have been crucial to its organizing programme. Analysing cases involving dock workers in India and logistics workers in Turkey, it is noted that these struggles are resource intensive but potentially transformational, and should be theorized as ‘resonant places’ in a wider global organizing strategy.     

Nations or Sectors in the Age of Globalization: China's Policy Toward Foreign Direct Investment in Telecommunications

Scholars debate whether states or markets drive economic policy in the context of internationalization. Unpacking the market–state dichotomy, liberal pluralists and institutionalists alike conduct sectoral analysis to examine economic policies and outcomes. They debate the relative importance of sectors versus factors and the impact of sectoral coalitions, structural characteristics, and institutional trajectories. Building on previous scholarship, this article argues that state imperatives, such as national security and technological advancement, are an important guide to understanding dominant patterns of economic policy, defined as state goals, government–business relations, and state methods. Beyond that, the organization of institutions and structural sectoral attributes influence the ways in which actual policy outcomes vary across sectors and time. Case studies of the liberalization and subsequent reregulation of foreign direct investment across subsectors of telecommunications in China substantiate this argument. Evidence from other industries further validates this explanatory model.
