Yet, more studies are still needed to understand how memory work—especially the historical memory of trauma among diasporic communities—contributes to the transnational connections in Muslim Asia. Situated in the context of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), this article focuses on how merchant networks and memory work contribute to fostering Islamic cosmopolitanism in Asia. Building upon fieldwork between 2015 and 2020, my ethnography reveals that remembrance rituals and survival narratives become entangled with the merchant networks as Sinophone Muslims move between China and Central Asia. While striving to preserve the memory of historical trauma through rituals, Muslim individuals and associations also selectively downplay the past of ethnoreligious conflicts through heritage performance. In other words, Sinophone Muslims turn to traumatic memory through both remembering and selective oblivion, which is key to facilitating connections beyond the official BRI discourse.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"20 1","pages":"155 - 172"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1683478X.2021.1896271","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45121639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cliff inscriptions in Chinese minority areas may be an attempt to enforce the hegemonic project of the “civilizing centre,” which sees Han culture as a civilizing force on the “barbarians” that live in China’s border provinces. Despite the nominal equality of China’s ethnic minority groups, the language and writing system of the Han majority occupy an undeniably privileged position in the country’s linguistic hierarchy. But powerful writing does not necessarily have to emanate from the centre of political control, and I argue that there are examples of graphic pluralism where the hierarchy is upturned. One such example of powerful, informal public text acts are the graffiti found on the walls of a cave in an ethnically Naxi township of Baidi in Yunnan province. The most powerful and prestigious graffiti inscriptions are those that are written in the native Naxi logographic script. An analysis of these inscriptions may help to reveal the social implications of writing in heterographic situations, showing how the ritual act of writing Naxi inscriptions on the wall inculcates Naxi values and suggests that China’s linguistic hierarchy is not immutable.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"20 1","pages":"210 - 229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1683478X.2021.1889788","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47328951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We defend a need for an integrated, informed and careful address to the cult of the teyyams (like any other post-colonial reality) and argue that the post-colonial discourse, despite its advantages over colonial rhetoric, can still be improved upon. It can be improved upon by acknowledging, besides the obvious consequences of the colonialist cultural and political heritage, the traces of the local, more ancient or discrete influences, interlaced with the later colonial heritage, and can provide clues for understanding of the present in its complexity. The example of the teyyams is not a random choice but rather a specific example in which the history of the relations of power, which continues from pre-colonial times, is visible on the one hand in local political discussions, and on the other hand has been fully inscribed, as tension and transgression, into the ritual in a metaphorical way.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"19 1","pages":"257 - 272"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1683478x.2020.1765465","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44108204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
