Farmers on the Move: Complex Trajectories and Implications for Philippine Agrarian Life

The Philippines is widely known for its long history of labor migration, largely defined by people’s movement towards non-agrarian work opportunities in the global market. However, Filipino labor has a rich history of sustaining farms in rural settings overseas, with the settlement of Filipino indentured and contract laborers in North America as a prime example.

The Nuclear Energy Machine and Tiny Voices: A Dialogue Between Cultural Anthropologists and a Poet

The Japanese Society of Cultural Anthropology holds a public symposium every year to introduce anthropological ideas to a wide audience. This year’s symposium will focus on the issue of the atomic bombing in Hiroshima. It is not only human beings who were exposed to the atomic bombings, nor are Hiroshima and Nagasaki alone. While rethinking the atomic bombing in the context of the global “nuclear machine,” we will explore the meaning of listening to and expressing the “tiny voices” of humans, animals, and plants that leak out from the bomb through a dialogue between poetic and anthropological imagination, with poet Arthur Binard as our guest speaker.
