Abstract

This guest editorial critically examines the current landscape of European politics and reassesses anthropology's role in deciphering contemporary social and political dynamics. It analyzes the surge of populism, epitomized by leaders like Hungary's Viktor Orbán, and challenges prevailing narratives on migration, the Ukraine conflict and European integration. The editorial argues that anthropologists must engage more intimately with grassroots perspectives and the notion of ‘peoplehood’ to grasp the intricacies of national identity and sovereignty in our globalized era. By questioning the dominant liberal cosmopolitan worldview, it proposes an alternative anthropological approach that considers both the advantages and pitfalls of open borders and supranational entities like the EU. This call for a more holistic anthropological perspective aims to deepen our understanding of the complex interplay between local, national and global forces shaping contemporary European societies.

这篇特邀社论批判性地审视了欧洲政治的现状,重新评估了人类学在解读当代社会和政治动态中的作用。社论分析了以匈牙利领导人维克多-欧尔班(Viktor Orbán)为代表的民粹主义浪潮,并对有关移民、乌克兰冲突和欧洲一体化的普遍说法提出了挑战。社论认为,人类学家必须与基层视角和 "人民性 "概念进行更密切的接触,以把握全球化时代错综复杂的国家认同和主权问题。通过质疑占主导地位的自由主义世界主义世界观,文章提出了另一种人类学方法,既考虑到开放边界和欧盟等超国家实体的优势,也考虑到其弊端。该书呼吁从更全面的人类学角度看问题,旨在加深我们对塑造当代欧洲社会的地方、国家和全球力量之间复杂的相互作用的理解。
