This article puts the analytic of “indigenous cosmopolitics” (as used by Mario Blaser and Marisol de la Cadena) in dialogue with the anthropology of Christianity through an ethnography of a dam construction and resettlement project in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. Drawing on long-term fieldwork in the area, I explore how both God and Christian ethnotheology became imbricated with a group of indigenous villagers’ legal struggle to resist the scheme and the template of progressive, modern citizenship bound up with it. I suggest that the villagers’ efforts constituted a form of Christian cosmopolitics that sought to disrupt Sarawakian politics as usual by bringing a previously inconceivable outcome—and a different way of being different—into being. Their eventual victory and its aftermath, however, raise critical questions about the limits and untapped possibilities of “cosmopolitical” proposals, as well as about contemporary anthropology’s own ethicopolitical approaches to difference.

本文通过马来西亚婆罗洲砂拉越的大坝建设和移民项目的民族志，将“土著世界政治”（马里奥·布拉泽和马里索尔·德拉卡德纳使用的）分析与基督教人类学进行对话。借助该地区的长期实地考察，我探索了上帝和基督教民族神学如何与一群土著村民为抵制该计划以及与之相关的进步的现代公民身份的法律斗争而交织在一起。我认为村民们的努力构成了一种基督教世界政治的形式，它试图通过带来以前不可思议的结果——以及一种不同的与众不同方式——来破坏砂拉越的政治。然而，他们最终的胜利及其后果，
