  • The optimistic utopia: sacrifice and expectations of political transformation in the Angolan Revolutionary Movement
  • 2021
  • In: Social Anthropology. - : Berghahn Books. - 0964-0282 .- 1469-8676. ; 29:1, s. 123-140
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • In this paper, I propose an anthropological discussion of the correlation of utopia and optimism, in relation with ideas of personal and collective sacrifice. To do so, I will invoke my ethnographic research on political activism in Angola, particularly the so-called Revolutionary Movement – a group of young activists challenging Angola’s authoritarian regime. During recent Luanda fieldwork, I observed how most of the ‘Revús’ engaged in self-sacrificial behaviour, exposing themselves to police brutality, imprisonment and social discrimination, in their struggle towards a brighter collective future. This optimistic and somewhat Gandhian stance marks a dramatic departure from the sense of fatalism and ‘culture of fear’ that seems otherwise to prevail in Angola. I will question if and in what terms such stances are ‘utopian’ and configure ‘principles of hope’, as Ernst Bloch would put it. In the process, I will perform a critical interrogation of the correlation of utopia, hope and optimism.

  • Utopian confluences: anthropological mappings of generative politics
  • 2021
  • In: Social Anthropology. - : Berghahn Books. - 0964-0282 .- 1469-8676. ; 29:1, s. 5-17
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • In this introductory essay, we introduce the possibility of an anthropology of generative politics, focusing in particular on its utopian unfoldings. We depart from the recognition that the current global political landscape is exposing new forms of collective mobilisation that challenge prevailing understandings of ‘the human’, collective agency and chronotopical experiences. Through a critical review of anthropological and other scholarship on, for instance, (post)humanism, as well as a presentation of contemporary socio-political configurations, we make the case for generative politics being integral to what we term ‘utopian confluences’.

  • Student Visas, Undocumented Labor, and the Boundaries of Legality : Chinese migration and English as a foreign language education in the Republic of Ireland
  • 2011
  • In: Social Anthropology. - United Kingdom : Wiley-blackwell publishing Ltd.. - 0964-0282 .- 1469-8676. ; 19:3, s. 268-287
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • This article studies Chinese student migrants who are at risk of becoming undocumented through their engagement with the labour market in the Republic of Ireland. The migrants I am concerned with are not elite dual-passport holders, but rather individuals who strategically participate in transnational migration as part of an emerging Chinese middle class. By closely examining the interrelation between the educational sector and migration industry through the everyday lives of Chinese student migrants, I argue that criteria set up by states are often translated into bureaucratic categories which can be manufactured and commercially supplied in the process of migration.
