Title = {Reckoning: The Ends of War in Guatemala},
Publisher = {Duke University Press},
Year = {2009},
Month = {February},
Abstract = {Following the 1996 treaty ending decades of civil war, how
are Guatemalans reckoning with genocide and with the fact
that almost everyone collaborated in some way with the
violence? Meaning “to count, figure up” and “to settle
rewards and punishments,” reckoning promises accounting
and accountability. Yet Diane Nelson shows that the means by
which the war was waged, especially its raced and gendered
modes, unsettle the very premises of knowing and being.
Symptomatic are the stories of duplicity and living with
“two faces” pervasive in post-war Guatemala and applied
to the left, Mayan people, and the state. Drawing on over
twenty years of research in Guatemala, Nelson explores how
postwar struggles to reckon traumatic experience illuminate
the assumptions of identity more generally. Nelson lashes
together stories of human rights activism, Mayan identity
struggles, forced-voluntary participation in massacres, and
popular enjoyments like traditional dances, horror films,
and carnivals, with exhumations of mass graves, official
apologies, and reparations. She discusses the stereotype of
the Two-Faced Indian as colonial discourse revivified by
anti-guerrilla counterinsurgency and by the claims of
duplicity leveled against Nobel laureate Rigoberta Menchú,
as well as functioning as a survival strategy for some.
Nelson examines suspicions that state power is also
two-faced, from the left’s fears of a clandestine
para-state behind the democratic façade to the right’s
conviction that NGOs threaten Guatemalan sovereignty.
Comparing anti-malaria and anti-subversive campaigns
suggests biopolitical ways the state is two-faced,
simultaneously taking and giving life. Emphasizing that the
ends of war are always sites of struggle, Nelson offers a
ground-up take on political transition as Guatemalans find
creative ways forward, turning ledger books, technoscience,
and even gory popular culture into tools for making sense of
violence, loss, and the future.},

Title = {Under the sign of the Virgen de Tránsito},

Year = {2009},
Month = {January},
Abstract = {Following the 1996 treaty ending decades of civil war, how
are Guatemalans reckoning with genocide, especially since
almost everyone contributed in some way to the violence?
Meaning "to count, figure up" and "to settle rewards and
punishments," reckoning promises accounting and
accountability. Yet as Diane M. Nelson shows, the means by
which the war was waged, especially as they related to race
and gender, unsettled the very premises of knowing and
being. Symptomatic are the stories of duplicity pervasive in
postwar Guatemala, as the left, the Mayan people, and the
state were each said to have "two faces." Drawing on more
than twenty years of research in Guatemala, Nelson explores
how postwar struggles to reckon with traumatic experience
illuminate the assumptions of identity more generally.
Nelson brings together stories of human rights activism,
Mayan identity struggles, coerced participation in
massacres, and popular entertainment-including traditional
dances, horror films, and carnivals-with analyses of
mass-grave exhumations, official apologies, and reparations.
She discusses the stereotype of the Two-Faced Indian as
colonial discourse revivified by anti-guerrilla
counterinsurgency and by the claims of duplicity leveled
against the Nobel laureate Rigoberta Menchú, and she
explores how duplicity may in turn function as a survival
strategy for some. Nelson examines suspicions that state
power is also two-faced, from the left's fears of a
clandestine para-state behind the democratic façade, to the
right's conviction that NGOs threaten Guatemalan
sovereignty. Her comparison of antimalaria and
antisubversive campaigns suggests biopolitical ways that the
state is two-faced, simultaneously giving and taking life.
Reckoning is a view from the ground up of how Guatemalans
are finding creative ways forward, turning ledger books,
technoscience, and even gory horror movies into tools for
making sense of violence, loss, and the future.},

Pages = {S122-S133},
Year = {2019},
Month = {February},
Abstract = {This essay opens with one of hundreds of massacres carried
out in the early 1980s in Guatemala by agents of the
military state. The killing was meant to depopulate the Rio
Negro valley to make way for a hydroelectric dam. Like much
of the violence of the 36-year conflict, it was low-tech and
carried out by civil patrollers, which is perhaps why the
Guatemalan civil war was considered a “low intensity
conflict” by US Army definitions: “below conventional
war … employing political, economic, informational, and
military instruments.” I suggest that these instruments
encompass what many anthropologists call culture. While
beginning with a moment of spectacular violence, the essay
then traces the mundane, everyday political and economic
embeddings of militarism into Guatemalan social
institutions, life, conditions of possibility, meaning
systems, and abilities to affect and be affected. A history
of the present, it traces the paramil-itarization of the
army/government in the 1960s and 1970s via the development
of death squads and other clandestine bodies and illicit
networks that shape state functioning today. Yet it also
explores the intensities of countercultures of militarism,
the networks that have forced perpetrator accountability,
reparations, and state recognition of Mayan peoples and
their rights to defend their territories from accumulation
by dispossession.},

Month = {July},
Abstract = {Genocide rulings should not care about numbers. Legally,
proving the intent to destroy a people in whole or in part
is what counts. Yet numbers are vital actants in the often
decades-long lead-up to trials. Aggregate numbers give
weight to the specificity of individual testimony,
statistical estimates can transform missing people into
cold, hard facts, and algorithms can reveal ‘excess
death’, even when forensic anthropologists cannot find all
the bones. And because of this power, numbers are highly
contested in both truth commission findings and trials like
that of Generals Ríos Montt and Rodríguez Sánchez. In
this article I analyse the disentangling work of
statisticians and anthropologists in exhuming and counting
bodies, and how particular numbers (200,000; 1,771;
ninety-three per cent) are made, then re-entangled in
efforts to count. The modern ideal of a universal subject of
rationality and abstraction that positions women and natives
as those who cannot count contributed to their historic
exclusion and dehumanization. Counting, as in adding things
up, is part of the historic achievement of the trial to make
Maya-Ixil women and men count, in the sense of to
matter.},

Abstract = {This essay examines China Miéville's The Scar (2004) and
Nalo Hopkinson's Midnight Robber (2000) alongside Fredric
Jameson's work on "the desire called Utopia and other
science fictions," in order to read an anthropological
"social science fiction" from the post-genocide Maya
highlands of Guatemala, involving a scam that promised half
a million quetzals (about $70,000) to people who were deemed
worthy by the Ajau or Earthparent (and who had contributed a
small fee). Only Maya could participate, and those who
created the wealth would get a bit of it. I argue that this
situation was a form of postcolonial or global science
fiction: An emergent form embarking from the point of view
of the enslaved, the indebted, all those who work for
nothing-a.k.a. "free" labor. Exploring Miéville's pirates,
Hopkinson's robber queen, and Mayan shamanic investors
together offers ways to think about the spirits of capital
and their intensely ambivalent allure on this crisis-ridden
planet. © 2000-2013 ITHAKA.},

Abstract = {Working from multiple meanings of reckoning (to count, to
settle rewards or penalties, to pay a bill, to measure
possibilities for the future), this essay explores the
post-war in Guatemala and the work of, and struggles over,
number in making different people and experiences count. The
peace treaty signed in 1996 instituted a truth commission
and efforts to bring justice to the victims. The
commission's quantifications of 250,000 dead, 93 percent at
the hands of the state, mix in complex ways with the
qualitative judgment that those deaths constitute genocide,
leading to further quandaries in quantifying forms of
repair. The state has begun paying reparations to survivors,
but is also compensating civilians who were drafted into
para-militaries that carried out massacres. How these
para-victimizers count in relation to the aggregate of
victims is, in turn, hard to calculate, and I look at some
ways Guatemalans are working to make it all add up.

Volume = {30},

Abstract = {Using critical studes of technology, medicine, and empire to
analyze Europe's colonies as laboratories of modernity where
both work (labor) and slippage (labi) occur, this essay
explores the phenomenon of social science fiction by
examining the novel The Calcutta Chromosome, written by
social scientist Amitav Ghosh. The Calcutta Chromosome is a
mystery thriller in the guise of sf and alternative history
that explores a range of human/technology interfaces, from
railroads, computers, and bureaucracies to genetic
engineering and the mysterious workings of the malaria
plasmodium. The eponymous chromosome is a form of
transmission that shapes the human through books, whispered
secrets, and email messages as surely as through genetic
transfers, disease vectors, and medical contagion. The essay
follows Ghosh in linking malaria (which is less a disease
than a classic network of actants) with colonial tropes
(ways of knowing) and troops (the militarized aspects of
science) in order to imagine a new human entity arising from
the "counterscience" devised in such laboratories.},

either "side," I negotiate the double entendre of "Indian

make up the debate. I track how such assumptions of identity
involve a detour through gendered, ethnic, and transnational
difference. Transactions such as gifting, joking, and
stereotyping are ecstatic and pleasurable, and vacillate
with threatening to suggest that the vacillation itself, the
exchange, is essential to identification and that the
empiricist promise of being "nonduped" is an
error.},

Maya apparently crucified a boy and, emboldened by this
"Indian Christ," they swept out of the hills killing
non-Indians indiscriminately. I argue not only that Guha's
"elementary aspects of peasant insurgency" (1983) aid in
understanding the ferocious mimesis of the Mayan
crucifixion, but also that the Caste War has a disruptive
history that challenges theories of resistance as well as
the relation of the historian and the ethnographer to the
subaltern and to the "colonizer" subject.},
