Abstract:Arguing that cosmopolitan ideas and practices have to be included in a joint matrix, this introduction puts emphasis on the situatedness of cosmopolitanism in specific periods, regions, and political contexts. It highlights nineteenth-century empires as central frameworks and breeding grounds of cosmopolitanism and identifies imperial and anti-imperial thinking as crucial to various conceptions of world citizenship. The introduction points to the campaigning for and enactment of rights and to the related conceptions of humanity as crucial elements of nineteenth-century cosmopolitanism. Seeing cosmopolitanism through the historical prism of the Age of Empire with all its contradictions and ambivalences also provides a framework for thinking about how to deal with difference in the present.
摘要:本文认为世界主义思想和实践必须包含在一个联合矩阵中,并强调世界主义在特定时期、地区和政治背景下的情境性。它强调19世纪的帝国是世界主义的中心框架和滋生地,并将帝国主义和反帝国主义思想视为世界公民权各种概念的关键。引言指出,争取和颁布权利以及作为19世纪世界主义关键要素的相关人性概念。透过帝国时代的历史棱镜来看待世界主义及其所有的矛盾和矛盾,也为思考如何在当下处理差异提供了一个框架。

Postcolonial Cosmopolitan Republicanism: A Conceptual Approach to Nineteenth-Century New Granada/Colombia 后殖民世界共和主义:19世纪新格拉纳达/哥伦比亚的概念方法

Abstract:This article employs a conceptual approach to understand the place and importance of cosmopolitanism for Colombians between independence from Spain (in 1819) and the ensemble of liberal reforms that were designed to end enduring social and economic colonial structures (1846–1863). While the concept of cosmopolitanism did not play a conspicuous role during the first fifty years of the country’s independence, it constituted an ineludible component of its early republican vocabulary and practices. Furthermore, Colombian cosmopolitan republicanism is best understood as structurally ambivalent in that it promoted inclusive citizenship while embodying a civilizing mission directed toward its own Indigenous, African, and mestizo populations.
摘要:本文采用概念方法来理解哥伦比亚人在1819年从西班牙独立到1846-1863年旨在结束持久的社会和经济殖民结构的自由主义改革之间的世界主义的地位和重要性。虽然世界主义的概念在国家独立的前五十年没有发挥显著作用,但它构成了早期共和词汇和实践中不可磨灭的组成部分。此外,哥伦比亚的世界主义共和主义在结构上是矛盾的,因为它促进了包容性的公民身份,同时体现了针对本国土著、非洲人和混血儿人口的文明使命。

Respect!: Edward Wilmot Blyden and the Cosmopolitan Challenge 尊重!: Edward Wilmot Blyden和Cosmopolitan Challenge

Abstract:Edward Wilmot Blyden (1832–1913) is regarded as a pioneer of Pan-African ideas and Afrocentrism. Blyden’s concept of the “African personality” supplied Africans with a history, an identity, and original skills, supposed to counterbalance Western ideas of superiority. Nor did he shy away from the propagation of racial segregation. Many accounts even denounce him as a Black racist. Against this backdrop, this article re-evaluates Blyden’s ideas about education, religious encounter, and humanity. I argue that his main drive was a struggle for respect: he campaigned to endow Black Africans with self-respect and gain recognition from Western people. Thus, Blyden’s struggle exemplifies the challenges in promoting cosmopolitanism from the marginalized position of the colonized. At the same time, ideas of a Black intellectual come to the fore that are no less illuminating than the European blueprints before and after Blyden that never lived up to the reality.
摘要:爱德华·威尔莫特·布莱登(1832-1913)是泛非思想和非洲中心主义的先驱。布莱登的“非洲人个性”概念为非洲人提供了历史、身份和独创的技能,旨在制衡西方的优越感。他也没有回避种族隔离的传播。许多报道甚至谴责他是黑人种族主义者。在此背景下,本文重新评价了布莱登的教育观、宗教遭遇观和人性观。我认为,他的主要动机是争取尊重:他在竞选中赋予非洲黑人自尊,并获得西方人民的认可。因此,布莱登的斗争体现了从被殖民者的边缘地位推动世界主义的挑战。与此同时,黑人知识分子的思想脱颖而出,其启发性不亚于布莱登前后的欧洲蓝图,这些蓝图从未达到现实。

Germany and Colonia Dignidad: Colonial Entanglement, Medical Humanitarianism, and Human Rights Abuses in Chile 德国与尊严殖民地:智利的殖民纠缠、医疗人道主义和侵犯人权行为

Abstract:In the early 1960s, a group of West Germans established the religious colony of Colonia Dignidad (the Colony of Dignity) in central Chile. This article chronicles the violence and atrocity that occurred at the Colony during the era of Augusto Pinochet’s military rule. At the same time, it demonstrates how Germany’s longer history of colonial entanglement and the Nazi practices of torturous medicine served as the underpinnings for the human rights violations that occurred. The Colony’s existence was only possible due to the long-standing ties between Germany and Chile. These same connections have rendered the legacy of the Colony intertwined with failures on both sides of the Atlantic to uphold human rights.
摘要:20世纪60年代初,一批西德人在智利中部建立了宗教殖民地Colonia Dignidad(尊严殖民地)。这篇文章记录了奥古斯托·皮诺切特军事统治时期在殖民地发生的暴力和暴行。与此同时,它展示了德国长期的殖民纠缠历史和纳粹的酷刑医学做法如何成为发生的侵犯人权行为的基础。由于德国和智利之间的长期联系,殖民地的存在才有可能。这些同样的联系使殖民地的遗产与大西洋两岸维护人权的失败交织在一起。

Cosmopolitanism and Imperialism in Nineteenth-Century British India 19世纪英属印度的世界主义与帝国主义
IF 1.1 Q3 SOCIAL ISSUES Pub Date : 2021-04-19 DOI: 10.1353/hum.2021.0003
Claude Markovits
Abstract:In this essay, I examine the link between cosmopolitanism and imperialism in colonial India. In the late eighteenth century, colonial rulers redefined Britishness as a racial category, excluding from it all those who were not of pure white British stock. This racial regime led a growing group of Western-educated Indian literati to adopt cosmopolitanism as an alternative strategy of empowerment. But their cosmopolitanism took different forms: some opted for imperial cosmopolitanism and sought a form of imperial citizenship; others found political models outside Britain, to inspire them in a struggle against empire.
摘要:在这篇文章中,我考察了殖民地印度的世界主义和帝国主义之间的联系。18世纪末,殖民统治者将英国人重新定义为一个种族类别,将所有非英国白人排除在外。这种种族制度导致越来越多受过西方教育的印度文人采用世界主义作为另一种赋权策略。但他们的世界主义采取了不同的形式:一些人选择了帝国世界主义,并寻求一种帝国公民身份;其他人在英国以外的地方找到了政治模式,激励他们与帝国进行斗争。

Abstract:This interview with Jasbir K. Puar marks the 10th anniversary of the publication of her influential book Terrorist Assemblages: Homonationalism in Queer Times (2007). With powerful candor and an erudite lightness of touch, Puar responds, among others, to questions that inquire into the life-worlds and aesthetic-political-scholarly inheritances that found their way into the writing of the book; the ways in which the neologism in “homonationalism” has travelled and mutated outside of the context in which it was produced; the struggles with de-exceptionalizing grief in her work with help from friends; the rethinking that she has brought to understanding the relationship between intersectionality and assemblage in the light of criticism that the book received; the limits and possibilities of queer theory today; what fueled her interest in Israel/Palestine as a Sikh; and the affective intensities between disability and debility in her new book The Right to Maim (2017).
摘要:本次对Jasbir K.Puar的采访是在她颇具影响力的著作《恐怖分子集会:酷儿时代的同性恋》(2007)出版10周年之际进行的。Puar以强烈的坦率和博学的轻松笔触,回答了一些问题,这些问题探究了生活世界和美学政治学术遗产,这些遗产进入了这本书的写作;“谐音主义”中的新词在其产生的语境之外传播和变异的方式;在朋友的帮助下,她在工作中努力消除悲伤;她在理解交叉性和集合性之间的关系时,根据这本书所受到的批评进行了反思;当今酷儿理论的局限性和可能性;是什么激发了她作为锡克教徒对以色列/巴勒斯坦的兴趣;以及在她的新书《Maim的权利》(2017)中残疾和虚弱之间的情感强度。

Abstract:Slavery and anti-slavery were key motifs of political imagination in the age of global Empire. This review essay discusses Amalia Ribi Forclaz’s Humanitarian Imperialism: The Politics of Anti-Slavery Activism, 1880–1940, Richard Huzzey’s Freedom Burning: Anti-Slavery and Empire in Victorian Britain, and Ashutosh Kumar’s Coolies of the Empire: Indentured Indians in the Sugar Colonies, 1830–1920 to explore the multifaceted ties between slavery, abolitionism, humanitarianism, and colonial Empire. The essay goes on to argue that anti-slavery emerged as an idiom for globalization in an imperial age—defined by the anxieties engendered by a massively accelerating mobility and the frictions underlying the colonial civilizing mission.
摘要:奴隶制和反奴隶制是全球帝国时代政治想象的重要主题。这篇评论文章讨论了Amalia Ribi Forclaz的《人道主义帝国主义:反奴隶制激进主义的政治》,1880-1940年,Richard Huzzey的《燃烧自由:维多利亚时代英国的反奴隶制和帝国》,以及Ashutosh Kumar的《帝国的酷烈:糖殖民地的契约印第安人》,1830-1920年,和殖民帝国。这篇文章继续认为,反奴隶制是帝国时代全球化的一个成语,其定义是大规模加速的流动性和殖民文明使命背后的摩擦所产生的焦虑。

Building a Bed for the Night: The Parisian “Yellow Bubble” and the Politics of Humanitarian Architecture 为夜晚建造一张床:巴黎的“黄色泡沫”和人道主义建筑的政治

Abstract:The past decade has seen the expansion of architecture with an explicitly humanitarian purpose. This article examines the politics and functions of this movement by looking in detail at the humanitarian center at Porte de la Chapelle in Paris (the “Yellow Bubble”). Based on in-depth interviews and participant observation during 2017, the article shows how the center provided migrants with a bed for the night while at the same time serving the political imperative to clear informal settlements from the streets of Paris. The design, like many others, therefore replicated both the compassionate discourse of humanitarianism and its deeply political functions.
摘要:在过去的十年里,建筑以明确的人道主义目的进行了扩张。本文通过详细观察巴黎夏贝尔门的人道主义中心(“黄色泡沫”),来考察这场运动的政治和功能。根据2017年的深入采访和参与者观察,这篇文章展示了该中心如何为移民提供过夜的床位,同时为清除巴黎街头的非正规定居点提供政治服务。因此,与许多其他设计一样,该设计既复制了人道主义的同情话语,也复制了其深刻的政治功能。

Earwitnesses and Transparent Conduits of Voice: On the Labor of Field Interpreters for UN Missions 证人与透明的声音渠道:论联合国特派团现场口译员的工作
IF 1.1 Q3 SOCIAL ISSUES Pub Date : 2020-12-17 DOI: 10.1353/hum.2020.0023

Abstract:This essay considers the labor of field interpreters who worked for the UN during two critical missions in Nepal—the UN High Commission of Human Rights (OHCHR) and the United Nations Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) during and after the Maoist civil war. Interpreters negotiate two different ethical stances that resonate with contrasting ethical approaches in human rights and humanitarian work. As conduits of voice, an interpreter seeks to be neutral and impartial, a non-autonomous figure of mediation within the work of human rights. Field interpreters are also earwitnesses, who bear subjective responsibility for the knowledge they convey, through their work of listening to often-traumatic testimonies.

摘要:本文考虑了在尼泊尔毛派内战期间和之后,联合国在尼泊尔的两个重要任务——联合国人权高级委员会(OHCHR)和联合国驻尼泊尔特派团(UNMIN)期间为联合国工作的现场口译员的劳动。口译员谈判两种不同的道德立场,与人权和人道主义工作中截然不同的道德方法产生共鸣。作为声音的管道,口译员寻求中立和公正,在人权工作中是非自主的调解人物。现场口译员也是见证者,他们通过听取往往令人痛苦的证词的工作,对他们所传达的知识负有主观责任。为了理解作为中立的声音管道和主观的证人之间的矛盾,我探索了几个时刻,这些时刻中断了口译员工作的无形透明度意识形态。尽管这些不断的干扰,透明的意识形态继续盛行,口译员的具体化劳动有助于保持这种理想。

Interpreters negotiate two different ethical stances that resonate with contrasting ethical approaches in human rights and humanitarian work. As conduits of voice, an interpreter seeks to be neutral and impartial, a non-autonomous figure of mediation within the work of human rights. Field interpreters are also earwitnesses, who bear subjective responsibility for the knowledge they convey, through their work of listening to often-traumatic testimonies. To get at the paradoxes of between being both a neutral conduit of voice and a subjective earwitness, I explore several moments that interrupt the ideology of invisible transparency within which interpreters work. Despite these constant interruptions, the ideology of transparency continues to prevail, and interpreters’ embodied labor helps preserve such ideals.","PeriodicalId":44775,"journal":{"name":"Humanity-An International Journal of Human Rights Humanitarianism and Development","volume":"11 1","pages":"298 - 316"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/hum.2020.0023","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44293955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
