neoliberal market‐oriented approaches to solving social and economic problems defined as “poverty” have received much attention in anthropology and allied disciplines such as sociology and geography and among development studies scholars and practitioners. anthropologists have taken up, and often contend with, the paradigmatic discourse of neoliberalism, debating its adequacy as an explanatory framework

this article re-examines the ongoing debate surrounding early pottery neolithic entities in the southern levant through a technological analysis of ceramic assemblages from five significant sites belonging to the so-called yarmukian and lodian/jericho ix cultural entities. the technological analysis identifies the manufacturing process employed in vessel production across multiple scales of observation

recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early homo sapiens occupation of europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. research on british sites, however, continues to lag. this is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites. some of these limitations are described here

over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of northwest africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. much of this work has been focused in morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters. here we outline some of the critical findings concerning

the rich and diverse evidence from the 2nd millennium bc aegean allows indepth analyses of how past materiality was treated in this period. remembering, forgetting and ignoring have been important tools employed by societies on various occasions and with different meanings and aims. the mnemonoscape in the aegean has provided a template of objects and landscapes, which received diverse treatments depending

archaeology has seen a recent reemergence of interest in ancient forms of governance and variations in political institutions across time and space. while studies of ancient maya politics have frequently assumed a unified political system, an increasing pool of data suggests that there was in fact a high degree of variability regarding governance and political practice. here we discuss changes in rulership

ethics and ontology have become prominent concepts in recent anthropology, informing a variety of research endeavours. despite their different approaches, agendas, and concerns, they share a central focus on alterity and the relationship between self and other: who is the other? how should i relate to the other? in relating these concerns, ontological questions would appear to have logical primacy

this paper considers two indigenous-oriented approaches in contemporary archaeology that seek to increase archaeology’s epistemological breadth: collaborative indigenous archaeology and the ontological turn. one more practical, the other more theoretical, these approaches are rarely considered together. each seeks to build new connections between archaeology and indigenous peoples, politics, and/or

archaeologists understand the limitations of viewing cultural categories as deterministic of material culture use and preference. nonetheless, it is challenging to avoid such assumptions when attempting to interpret material patterns associated with moments of migration. this paper considers how regional identities shaped the ways refugees interacted with resettlement housing landscapes in delhi (india)

for beninese moviemakers, disinformation represents a crisis of morality, not truth. drawing on my experience producing a movie with nàgó (yorùbá) partners in the republic of benin, i show how they embrace artifice: practical techniques for creating audiovisual media that advance their creators’ agenda. these techniques demand that creators separate technical from moral artifice—their production skills

in the second of two interviews with leading anthropologists focused on academic freedom, the editors of american ethnologist speak with eve darian‐smith (university of california, irvine) and virginia r. dominguez (university of illinois urbana‐champaign). darian‐smith recently published policing higher education, and dominguez has addressed academic freedom through her work with the world anthropological

during and after migration, communities can experience adaptive processes leading to collective resilience. such processes are shaped by the challenges these communities face in adjusting to new social contexts, cultural backgrounds, and occasionally new environmental conditions. undergoing a relocation process outside of a homeland, namely in a diaspora, is a strenuous venture. on the one hand, social

pottery decoration, though not essential for a vessel’s function, offers key insights into past societies. beyond aesthetics, it reflects technological skill, social identity, and cultural interaction. this study examines bell beaker pottery from north-eastern poland, a region notable for its stylistic ties to western bell beaker groups and its role in early bronze age developments. through detailed

since ending conscription in 1963, britain has fought its “small wars” with professional soldiers from deprived areas of the country, many recruited under the age of 18. during the 21st‐century war on terror, these personnel were deemed vulnerable, at heightened risk of psychosocial harms, and entitled to more protection. vulnerable soldiers bring a dangerous vulnerability into the state. while postimperial

what makes for a successful submission to american ethnologist? as with article submissions to any anthropological journal, there are several measures you can take to strengthen your article's chance of success. first, produce a well‐written manuscript with a clearly articulated thesis. second, know your journals: is ae really the best venue for your work? third, entice editors and reviewers with a

drawing on fieldwork conducted in a hospital in greater manchester, england in 2016–17, we describe how a set of national health priorities were translated into work for hospital managers and clinicians during a period of significant organizational pressure. departing from the focus on practice and posthuman relations in many recent ethnographies of healthcare, we attend to inequalities between perspectives

this paper introduces the emic concept of guesting, coined by women living in refugee accommodation to distinguish their form of hospitality from other more hierarchical forms of hosting. central to guesting is the unspoken rule that once you have played the host, next time you must be the guest. the reciprocal nature of guesting allows for the continual exchange of gifts and support between the women

what happens when indigenous language‐translation becomes intertwined with state politics? in contrast to scholarship's emphasis on translation as reproducing a source text in another language, in ecuador the translation of an education law to kichwa prioritized other forms of intertextuality that connected the resulting text to a small corpus of pre‐existing kichwa‐language state documents. some translators

in the first of two interviews on the issue of academic freedom, the editors of american ethnologist interviewed hayal akarsu, president of the european association of social anthropologists, and heath cabot, president of the association for political and legal anthropology, about the restrictions faced by scholars and students in europe and beyond. in a wide‐ranging discussion, akarsu and cabot consider

this issue critically considers the binary assumptions archaeologists typically rely on when examining materials and landscapes of migrant and diaspora communities. these assumptions typically involve the search for either migrant associated material culture versus local/host material culture also the search for change versus continuity within migrant associated material cultures. while these ways

in recent years, citizen‐driven initiatives have significantly transformed agrobiodiversity monitoring, exemplified by platforms like wiki papa and varscout, which support andean potato conservation in peru. wiki papa serves as a curated repository documenting local potato varieties, while varscout enables the collection of on‐the‐ground potato data from farming fields and andean households. these

burnt houses are a recurrent phenomenon in the prehistoric archaeological record, yet the specific processes behind their burning—likely varying across time and place—remain poorly understood. this study focuses on a thoroughly studied dwelling (house 1) from the iberian early iron age settlement of cerro de san vicente and investigates site formation processes associated with its burning. to achieve

the early years of the 2000s saw the rise of coupé‐décalé, a musical genre created by undocumented ivoirian migrants in paris. this took place in parallel with the internet's explosion in côte d'ivoire, giving rise to a new figure in ivoirian popular culture: the boucantier (noisemaker). the boucantiers became famous by entering nightclubs and focusing the crowd's attention on themselves. their principal

this essay introduces a collection of essays on illiberal economies, arenas for paradoxical practices that simultaneously critique but rely upon liberal institutions and norms. looking across the cases that the essays present, we argue that three themes stand out as especially salient for helping us gain greater analytical purchase on the challenges that contemporary forms of illiberalism pose, both
