On Common Speech 论普通言语

The multilingual turn in literary studies emphasizes the fairly recent emergence of a monolingual attachment to language. While this rightly calls into question the academic focus on monolingual competencies and offers a substantial area of inquiry for scholars working with the linguistically diverse regions of South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, this essay posits that the persistence of multilinguality among historical actors from these regions does not merit a shift away from monolingualism in contemporary scholarship. This argument derives from the claims analyzed in this essay, made by South Asian writers in colonial India, about the singularity of one's own language (swabhasha) and the writers' anxieties to protect this language from vulgar speech (gramyam). Building on contemporary work on the vernacular, the essay seeks to draw renewed attention to the role of speech in language debates in Telugu, a language whose particularity has not become a metonym either for the nation (like Hindi) or for a pan–South Indian identity (like Tamil). In tracing the movement from vulgar speech to proper language in this archive, this essay reframes vernacularity as an ethical compulsion premised on the common.
文学研究中的多语言转向强调了最近出现的对语言的单语依恋。虽然这正确地质疑了学术界对单语能力的关注,并为南亚、非洲和中东语言多样地区的学者提供了一个重要的研究领域,这篇文章认为,这些地区的历史行动者坚持使用多种语言,这不值得在当代学术中改变单语主义。这一论点源于殖民地印度的南亚作家在这篇文章中分析的关于自己语言的独特性(swabhasha)和作家们保护这种语言免受粗俗言论伤害的焦虑(gramyam)的主张。在当代白话文研究的基础上,本文试图重新引起人们对泰卢固语语言辩论中言语作用的关注,泰卢固语言的特殊性并没有成为国家(如印地语)或泛南印度身份(如泰米尔语)的转喻。在追踪该档案中从粗俗言论到恰当语言的运动时,本文将乡土性重新定义为一种以共同为前提的道德强制。

What Is a "Minority" in an Imperial Formation? Thoughts on the Russian Empire 什么是帝国编队中的“少数派”?关于俄罗斯帝国的思考

Abstract:Is minority a term applicable to groups in the Russian Empire, as an imperial formation? This article seeks to answer this question by engaging with two others: (1) Was there a term (or terms) that conveyed that idea? And, (2) Was there a historical experience among particular segments of that society with attributes that we may associate with "minorities"? The article proposes that, on the one hand, there can be no minorities unless a majority has itself come into being, and, on the other, that growing association of the state with the Russian people specifically, and the claim that other East Slavs were also Russian despite regional particularities, along with efforts to create a kind of citizenship through institutions that were inclusive of non-Russian peoples, began to constitute such a majority and minorities in Russia.
摘要:作为一种帝国形式,少数民族是一个适用于俄罗斯帝国群体的术语吗?本文试图通过与另外两个术语的接触来回答这个问题:(1)是否有一个或多个术语传达了这个想法?而且,(2)在那个社会的特定阶层中,是否有我们可能将其与“少数群体”联系在一起的历史经历?这篇文章提出,一方面,除非形成多数,否则就不可能有少数民族,另一方面,国家与俄罗斯人民的联系日益紧密,并声称其他东斯拉夫人尽管有地区特殊性,也是俄罗斯人,随着通过包容非俄罗斯人的机构创造一种公民身份的努力,他们开始在俄罗斯占多数和少数。

On the Huihui Question 关于回回问题
IF 0.7 Q2 AREA STUDIES Pub Date : 2021-12-01 DOI: 10.1215/1089201x-9407897
A. Glasserman
In Western discourse today the charge that Islam is “not just a religion” but a comprehensive social system is leveled to cast doubt over Muslims' ability to integrate into a political community. In the People's Republic of China, this understanding of Islam has served the opposite purpose. From the perspective of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), religion cannot be the basis for legitimate political identity. Islam, however, is not just a religion. Rather, as a “social system,” Islam constitutes a legitimate basis for national identity, and the Hui (Huihui), or Chinese Muslims, therefore constitute a minority nationality. This essay explores the origins of the CCP's understanding of Islam in the 1930s and 1940s, when the Party first formulated its policy vis-à-vis the Hui. Glasserman shows how this understanding of Islam as “not just a religion” suited the political, geopolitical, and ideological circumstances of the Yan'an period (1936–48). He also shows how this understanding was informed by contemporary Hui discourse and activism.
在今天的西方话语中,伊斯兰教“不仅仅是一种宗教”,而是一种全面的社会制度的指责被用来质疑穆斯林融入政治社区的能力。在中华人民共和国,这种对伊斯兰教的理解起到了相反的作用。从中国共产党的角度来看,宗教不能成为合法政治身份的基础。然而,伊斯兰教不仅仅是一种宗教。相反,作为一种“社会制度”,伊斯兰教构成了民族认同的合法基础,回族或中国穆斯林因此构成了少数民族。本文探讨了中国共产党在20世纪30年代和40年代对伊斯兰教的理解的起源,当时党首次制定了对回族的政策。格拉斯曼展示了这种对伊斯兰教“不仅仅是一种宗教”的理解是如何适应延安时期(1936–48)的政治、地缘政治和意识形态环境的。他还展示了这种理解是如何被当代回族话语和激进主义所影响的。

Intimacy and Estrangement 亲密与疏远
IF 0.7 Q2 AREA STUDIES Pub Date : 2021-12-01 DOI: 10.1215/1089201x-9407975

This article explores the incremental privatization of what is today East Africa's largest corporation, communications and finance firm Safaricom. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, British multinational Vodafone became a partial shareholder of Safaricom, with the government of Kenya retaining the majority stake in the company. This was followed by the company going “public” in 2008 through an Initial Public Offering (IPO). In exploring these transformations, this article demonstrates that privatization was not a singular event but turned on the production of divisibility: a discursive, epistemological, and material process whereby seemingly “classificatory wholes”—a corporation, an infrastructure, a state asset—were first presented and then rendered as partible entities. As the lines between the public and the private were being redrawn, another conceptual series—“citizenship,” “development,” the “public”—were similarly transformed into partible objects subject to division. Unraveling the historical entanglement of the corporation and the state, this article clarifies why, today, Kenyans—some of whom have been reformatted as shareholder-client-citizens—call on Safaricom to act like the state from which it has been incrementally “unbundled.”
本文探讨了今天东非最大的公司,通信和金融公司Safaricom的渐进式私有化。20世纪90年代末和21世纪初,英国跨国公司沃达丰成为Safaricom的部分股东,肯尼亚政府保留了该公司的多数股权。随后,该公司于2008年通过首次公开募股(IPO)“上市”。在探索这些转变的过程中,本文证明了私有化不是一个单一的事件,而是可分割性的产生:这是一个话语、认识论和物质过程,在这个过程中,看似“可分类的整体”——公司、基础设施、国有资产——首先被呈现,然后被呈现为可分割的实体。随着公共和私人之间的界限被重新划定,另一个概念系列——“公民身份”、“发展”、“公共”——也被类似地转变为可分割的对象。这篇文章解开了公司和国家之间的历史纠葛,阐明了为什么今天,肯尼亚人——其中一些人已经被重新格式化为股东客户公民——呼吁Safaricom像它逐渐“脱离”的国家一样行事

Middle East Popular Politics in Gramscian Perspective 葛兰西视角下的中东大众政治
IF 0.7 Q2 AREA STUDIES Pub Date : 2021-12-01 DOI: 10.1215/1089201x-9408015

Abstract:This article outlines a theoretical framework for researching popular politics in the Middle East and North Africa. It sketches a Gramscian alternative to existing approaches in materialist Marxism, cultural studies, and social movement studies. It also aims to think a Gramsci useful to historians, political scientists, sociologists, and anthropologists, beyond the common loci of Gramsci scholarship in political theory, comparative literature, and international relations. With a start point in Gramsci's philosophy of praxis, it puts forward a concept of popular politics as a mostly slow-moving, complex, and many-layered transformative activity, a form of historical protagonism comprising a variety of moments, capable of working changes on existing forms of hegemony and founding new social relations. The point is to enable researchers in Middle East studies to see and research popular politics, carry on a critique of transformative activity, and inform transformation in the present.
摘要:本文为研究中东和北非的大众政治提供了一个理论框架。它描绘了一种葛兰西式的替代唯物主义马克思主义、文化研究和社会运动研究的现有方法。它还旨在认为葛兰西对历史学家、政治学家、社会学家和人类学家有用,超越葛兰西学术在政治理论、比较文学和国际关系方面的共同点。它以葛兰西的实践哲学为起点,提出了大众政治的概念,认为大众政治是一种缓慢、复杂、多层次的变革活动,是一种包括各种时刻的历史对立形式,能够改变现有的霸权形式,建立新的社会关系。重点是让中东研究的研究人员能够看到和研究流行政治,对变革活动进行批判,并为当前的变革提供信息。

Abstract:In contemporary France, the problem of "immigrant youth"—French citizens, born to migrant parents, often from former French colonies—symbolizes the question of minority and national belonging. The development and disciplining of immigrants have, for several decades, formed the focus of sociological, anthropological, as well as political discourse, especially in the wake of the 2005 urban riots. Considering their case can help us to understand the history and the present-day predicament of "minority" in order to reimagine it beyond restrictive and racist frames.
摘要:在当代法国,“移民青年”问题——法国公民,父母是移民,通常来自前法国殖民地——象征着少数民族和民族归属问题。几十年来,移民的发展和管教一直是社会学、人类学和政治话语的焦点,尤其是在2005年城市骚乱之后。考虑他们的案例可以帮助我们理解“少数群体”的历史和当今困境,以便超越限制性和种族主义的框架重新想象它。

The "Fate of Minorities" in the Early Afro-Asian Struggle for Decolonization 早期亚非非殖民化斗争中的“少数民族命运”

Abstract:This article explores the significance of minority rights to postcolonial internationalism by examining an emerging Afro-Asian collective at the United Nations in the late 1940s. As postcolonial nations became UN memberstates, they fostered transnational solidarity through the Arab-Asian group, a predecessor of the Afro-Asian bloc, and constructed an anti-imperial project that directly engaged with the making of the new international human rights system. However, the Arab-Asian group did not advance minority rights in their struggle for decolonization at the UN. Instead, they favored a gradual path toward formal self-rule and the recognition of national self-determination that worked within the international order, most clearly expressed through the removal of a minority rights article in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
摘要:本文通过考察20世纪40年代末在联合国兴起的一个亚非集体,探讨了少数民族权利对后殖民国际主义的意义。随着后殖民国家成为联合国成员国,它们通过亚非集团的前身阿拉伯-亚洲集团促进了跨国团结,并建立了一个反帝国项目,直接参与了新的国际人权体系的建立。然而,阿拉伯-亚洲集团在联合国争取非殖民化的斗争中并没有推进少数民族的权利。相反,他们倾向于逐步走向正式自治和承认民族自决,这在国际秩序中发挥了作用,最明显的表现是删除了《世界人权宣言》中的少数群体权利条款。

Juridical Pan-Islam at the Height of Empire 帝国鼎盛时期的泛伊斯兰司法

Abstract:Located at the intersection of four regions, the Middle East, East Asia, Central Asia, and South Asia, Afghanistan is a country whose legal history is sure to be diverse and exciting at the confluence of multiple legal currents. In the book Afghanistan Rising: Islamic Law and Statecraft between the Ottoman and British Empires, Faiz Ahmed shows how Afghanistan could be regarded as a pivot for Islamic intellectual currents from the late nineteenth century onward, especially between the Ottoman Empire and South Asia. Afghanistan Rising makes us aware of our own assumptions of the study of Islamic law that has been artificially carved out during the rise of area studies, including Islamic studies. Ahmed provides a good paradigm for a legal history of a country that was attentive to foreign influences without being overwhelmed by them. While pan-Islamism is often portrayed as a defensive ideology that developed in the closing decades of the nineteenth century in reaction to high colonialism, the plotting of Afghanistan's juridical Pan-Islam in Ahmed's book is a robust and powerful maneuver out of this well-trodden path, as the country escaped being "landlocked" mainly by cultivating regional connections in law.
摘要:阿富汗地处中东、东亚、中亚和南亚四大地区的交汇处,是一个法律历史多元而精彩的国家。在《阿富汗崛起:奥斯曼帝国与大英帝国之间的伊斯兰法律与治国之道》一书中,法伊兹·艾哈迈德(Faiz Ahmed)展示了阿富汗如何可以被视为19世纪末以来伊斯兰知识潮流的枢纽,特别是在奥斯曼帝国与南亚之间。阿富汗崛起让我们意识到我们自己对伊斯兰法研究的假设,这些假设是在包括伊斯兰研究在内的区域研究兴起期间人为塑造的。艾哈迈德为一个国家的法律史提供了一个很好的范例,这个国家注意到外国的影响,却没有被它们淹没。虽然泛伊斯兰主义经常被描绘成一种防御意识形态,是在19世纪最后几十年发展起来的,是对高度殖民主义的反应,但艾哈迈德在书中对阿富汗司法泛伊斯兰的策划是一种强有力的策略,脱离了这条早已走过的道路,因为这个国家主要通过在法律上培养地区联系来摆脱“内陆”。

Reconciliation is a central goal of transitional justice. Yet, its importance for democratization can give reconciliation a coercive edge, pressuring victims to abandon legitimate grievances for the good of the nation to come. This article considers struggles over popular sovereignty in Tunisia's democratic transition, by examining the anticorruption campaign Manish Msamah (“I do not forgive”). Manish Msamah was formed in 2015 to defeat the Project Law on Economic and Financial Reconciliation, legislation that proposed amnesty for crony capitalists who profited from the Ben Ali dictatorship. Drawing on participant observation, media analysis, and activist interviews, the author shows how Manish Msamah debunks the ruse of consent at the heart of reconciliation, and in doing so maintains fidelity to the ideals of the 2011 Revolution. The campaign is revealed as an early participant in the “second wave” of the Arab Spring, which has refused the lure of procedural democracy in favor of deeper structural change.
和解是过渡时期司法的中心目标。然而,它对民主化的重要性可以使和解具有强制性的优势,迫使受害者为了国家的未来利益放弃合法的不满。本文通过考察反腐运动Manish Msamah(“我不原谅”),探讨突尼斯民主转型过程中围绕人民主权的斗争。Manish Msamah成立于2015年,旨在挫败《经济与财政和解项目法》(Project Law on Economic and Financial Reconciliation),该法案提议大赦从本·阿里独裁统治中获利的裙带资本家。通过参与观察、媒体分析和对活动家的采访,作者展示了Manish Msamah如何揭穿和解核心的同意策略,并在此过程中保持对2011年革命理想的忠诚。该运动被揭露为阿拉伯之春“第二波”的早期参与者,该运动拒绝了程序民主的诱惑,支持更深层次的结构变革。
