Agency. A response to Sørensen and Ribeiro
Archaeological Dialogues Pub Date : 2017-05-04 , DOI: 10.1017/s138020381700006x
Torill Christine Lindstrøm

While agreeing to openness to other world views, the underlying premise of ‘otherness’ in ‘the other’ is questioned. It is argued that individual, intercultural and intra-cultural differences run criss-cross throughout the anthroposphere. The often convoluted language in symmetrical, Latourian and New Materialist directions in archaeology is criticized. One questions what their significant new contributions to archaeological research are. The importance of refined differentiations regarding agency and effects, and the living and the non-living, is maintained. Latour's claim of a universal dichotomization in Western thinking (both academic and common) is interrogated, and empirical proofs demanded. The concepts of ‘dichotomy’ and ‘binary thinking’ are discussed. The assumed political and ethical sequelae and implications of adherence to one or another theoretical position and research methodology are questioned. Ecological awareness can be acquired from various positions. In general, political correctness in academia is criticized.

机构。对 Sørensen 和 Ribeiro 的回应

在同意对其他世界观开放的同时,“他者”中“他者”的基本前提受到质疑。有人认为,个体、跨文化和文化内的差异在整个人类圈中纵横交错。考古学中对称、拉图里亚和新唯物主义方向经常令人费解的语言受到批评。一个问题是他们对考古研究的重大新贡献是什么。关于代理和效果以及有生命和无生命的精细区分的重要性得到了维持。拉图尔关于西方思想(学术和普通思想)普遍二分法的主张受到质疑,并需要经验证明。讨论了“二分法”和“二元思维”的概念。坚持一种或另一种理论立场和研究方法的假定政治和伦理后果以及影响受到质疑。生态意识可以从不同的位置获得。总的来说,学术界的政治正确性受到批评。
