This form of accumulation has been enabled by structures of violence and exploitation wrought through desires of ever-bigger and ever-faster within the world of global shipping. But flow is only part of this story, mobility at sea is always interrupted, sticky and delayed. Maritime journeys are constituted by chokepoints, drift, and stuckness and are moments of anxiety and peril for a variety of actors from seafarers to policy makers whose projects seek to overcome these blockages in order to make possible more efficient and more profitable forms of circulation. For others, interruptions point to possibility. Here, I emphasize that for ‘maritime figures’ like insurance brokers, and seafarers, interruptions are part of everyday life at sea: a life constituted through an admixture of peril and possibility.","PeriodicalId":46201,"journal":{"name":"History and Anthropology","volume":"7 1","pages":"196 - 201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83703455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the weeks and months after the incident, the concealed contents of the shipping containers – stuck in legal limbo – captured global attention. Technologically developed in the years after the Second World War, the standardized shipping container has featured as one of the protagonists of the transformations in international trade. But the container’s logic of concealment and transaction has made ‘the box’ a common figure also in popular culture and social theory. This essay interrogates the shipping container’s multiple repertoires by focussing on containers at work. By tracing how the shipping container moves through the port infrastructure this essay takes us from the Suez Canal towards another central maritime passageway: the Strait of Gibraltar. This essay reflects on the different scales at which the shipping container functions in the port: from heavy materiality to abstracted codes and units of measurement.","PeriodicalId":46201,"journal":{"name":"History and Anthropology","volume":"2014 1","pages":"202 - 207"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87752935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cheuk","doi":"10.1080/02757206.2022.2057969","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/02757206.2022.2057969","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT This paper analyses the way in which Sindhi traders – one of the largest Indian diasporic populations in Asia – have managed to live and work in China as de facto migrants despite their inability to be granted settled immigration status by the Chinese state. Drawing on long-term fieldwork that started in 2010, the paper offers a China-centric ethnographic perspective on how Indian traders, particularly Sindhis in the Chinese county of Keqiao, have been dealing with the incongruence between immigration policies that largely preclude the possibility of their permanent residency and their long-term entrepreneurial engagement in China. I argue that this incongruence, despite the tensions and uncertainties it continues to generate, has in fact become a crucial factor in stabilizing the diasporic convergence upon Keqiao by Sindhi traders. The eventual consequence is what I call ‘indifferent survival’: that is, the Sindhi traders, a group of non-white foreigners, are managing to stay together and even expand the size of their diasporic community in China despite their vast internal differences in class, local knowledge, and wealth.","PeriodicalId":46201,"journal":{"name":"History and Anthropology","volume":"10 1","pages":"279 - 294"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84185053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The journey through this connecting point between Asia and Europe usually takes a vessel between 12and 16 h. The 23rd of March 2021, however, would prove to be a day out of the ordinary: the passage of the Ever Given, an ultra-large container ship, came to a halt when strong winds steered the vessel sideways, lodging it into the sandy banks of the narrowwaterway. Operated by a Taiwanese shipping company, sailing under the Panama flag, and on its way from China to Rotterdam in the Netherlands, the Ever Given was amongst the worst contenders for an accident of this kind: with a holding capacity of up to 20,000 twenty foot freight containers (TEUs), it ranks among the world’s largest container vessels. Indeed, despite the massive efforts made by the Canal Authority, the Ever Given would not move; with the queue of waiting ships growing to more than 300 by the time the salvage operation finally succeeded after six long days. In the meantime, the unexpected canal obstruction caused an estimated loss of 400 million US Dollars per hour to the world economy (Vlamis 2021). During the days of the frantic mission to release the ship from the Canal’s banks, the vessel had not only brought maritime traffic between Asia and Europe to a temporary halt. It also sparked unprecedented public interest in contemporary maritime transportation and the global histories behind it. In an effort to steer these conversations into anthropological terrain, we put forward a collection of short essays that focuses onmaritime passages, their interruptions, and on the multifaceted figures that accompany them. The passage, in its most dominant meaning, refers to a path, movement, or channel, which is often, but not always, of the oceanic kind, as the reflections ofWalter Benjamin on the concrete, and land-based urban Passagen (that is arcades) also attest to (Benjamin 2002). Secondly, in figurative speech, ‘the passage of time’ refers to the unstoppable elapsing of minutes, days, and years, which are pictured as gradually flowing away from us. This temporal dimension of ‘passage’ is equally as relevant to our argument around the Suez Canal’s temporary closure. And finally, a passage can refer to a brief composition, both of a written and musical nature – a condensed genre which we also aspire towards in the short interventions presented. The Canal’s obstruction, and the global public attention it received, represents an extraordinary accident-turned-spectacle. While most maritime accidents occur outside","PeriodicalId":46201,"journal":{"name":"History and Anthropology","volume":"25 1","pages":"183 - 187"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88354178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
