What does the shifting climate of gender and sexuality hierarchies reveal about the paradoxes that allow wounds and healing to coexist in Mexico's gay football scene? Read Max D. López Toledano's "Wounds in Utopia: The Politics of Gay Football in 4T Mexico," in our latest issue.
Check out our latest #TeachingTools! Here, Pinar shows how staying in the scene is a way of defending anthropology’s ongoing wager that knowledge begins not in the final text, but in the difficult and ethically charged labor of learning how to see. culanth.org/fieldsights/st…
"Bitter Sweetness: Compelling Greenhouse Farming and the Inter-mobility among Middle-Aged Farmers in North China" by Yue Liao explores how middle-aged Chinese farmers navigate between a mobile new urban elite and an immobile elderly peasantry. Read here: journal.culanth.org/index.php/ca/a…
"Recalling the Suicide: Affective Storytelling and the Ethics of "Good" Womanhood" by Anjali Krishan looks at middle-class married women's stories about the suicides of their female neighbours. Read here: journal.culanth.org/index.php/ca/a…

🎙️ New AnthroPod alert! How do Iranian diaspora communities navigate identity, belonging, and political change? Sharon Jacobs talks with Amy Malek about her book Culture Beyond Country: Strategies of Inclusion in the Global Iranian Diaspora. Listen: culanth.org/fieldsights/ir…
How can educators assess genuine learning in the age of AI? Alyssa Paredes points to a centuries-old practice, the oral exam, as a compelling model for fostering deeper understanding, critical thinking, and student engagement. Read the full text here: culanth.org/fieldsights/in…
How did Brexit and COVID-19 reveal the temporal regimes in contemporary England, implicitly reinforcing ageist marginalization and unequal power dynamics among different generational groups? Read Cathrine Degnen’s article in our latest issue: journal.culanth.org/index.php/ca/a…

New AnthroPod!🔊 In the first of a three-part miniseries, we listen to the stories people tell themselves about themselves: how people come to connect with history, how traditions are carried and transmitted, and how emotional performances help people move forward.
In a few years, I think we will look back and realize that learning is like physical fitness in its simplicity and resistance to technology: in order to improve, you need to consistently do hard things without shortcuts.
Berkeley Law’s new policy is unenforceable and, in any case, unwise. Universities should adapt their teaching methods to the technologies available to students, rather than expecting students to adapt to the university’s methods.
Probably for the purposes of doing peer-reviewed research and teaching at a university
People are letting AI write their wedding vows, love letters, parents’ obituaries, kids’ birthday cards… Such a powerful loss to self and community when people relinquish the truth of their own words and voices to become epiphenomenal vessels for computers to talk to each other.
People have all sorts of opinions regarding universities, but when it comes down to it, I and many like myself have now 20+ years of experience working at them (me: Canada+USA). One truism: the working conditions of the professoriate are the learning conditions of the students.
it makes me sad when people seem to have a huge vocabulary for critiquing writing but very few ways to describe what moves them, what they find effective or exciting or memorable, what they love—and why
🚨Have you heard? The new issue of Cultural Anthropology is out now! Featuring eleven original papers with ethnographic insights into topics ranging from evasion & repair to belonging across African, Asian & European geographies. Find all the articles ⤵️ Open Access as always!
Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing an essay, writing a eulogy, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing for 5,000 years.
