“…Within a Europe of unequal political and social power, where western racial classifications were wielded not only on colonized subjects in the far-flung territories of empire but also on their central and eastern European neighbors, such claims to racial parity helped raise the status of eastern Europeans at the expense of the Roma. Furthermore, for Czechs, questions of decolonization that are current in the west are viewed through a different lens, where European postcolonial discourse needs to be interpreted through the parallel but distinct framework of Soviet colonization (Pucherová and Gáfrik, 2015).…”

I examine here the role of anthropology in decolonizing narratives of personal identity, taking my own story as an example. I reflect on different aspects of decolonization between east and west: that of racialized identities in different national contexts; of disciplinary contrasts between European and American anthropology; and between that of eastern and western Europe. Drawing on Ingold’s notion of commoning, I discuss decolonizing practices through teaching anthropologically, using narrative as a method.

“…Slovak social scientists Dobrota Pucherova and Robert Gafrik presented an engaging collection of essays that focus on Eastern Europe's flight from under Moscow's iron fist in Post-colonial Europe? Essays on Post-Communist Literatures and Cultures, a very interesting compilation that merits discussion (Pucherova, 2015). The basic problem with the editors' thesis however, seems to me their lack of discussion on the political economy of Soviet empire.…”

Palgrave Studies in Globalization, Culture and Society traverses the boundaries between the humanities and the social sciences to critically explore the cultural and social dimensions of contemporary globalization processes. This entails looking at the way globalization unfolds through and within cultural and social practices, and identifying and understanding how it effects cultural and social change across the world. The series asks what, in its different guises and unequal diffusion, globalization is taken to be and do in and across specific locations, and what social, political and cultural forms and imaginations this makes possible or renders obsolete. A particular focus is the vital contribution made by different forms of the imagination (social, cultural, popular) to the conception, experience and critique of contemporary globalization. Palgrave Studies in Globalization, Culture and Society is committed to addressing globalization across cultural contexts (western and non-western) through interdisciplinary, theoretically driven scholarship that is empirically grounded in detailed case studies and close analyses. Within the scope outlined above, we invite junior and senior scholars to submit proposals for monographs, edited volumes and the Palgrave Pivot format.
