Respondents explain why they were willing to take such great risks in 1992 in their own words. The result is a locally-valid historical reconstruction leaning heavily on Abkhaz oral histories. It is provocative, beautifully crafted, destined to be translated into both Russian and Abkhaz, and brings something mar-velous to the ﬁ eld. The case is a potent reminder that, sometimes, a month of focused political violence can freeze a map for decades. Because Abkhazia is such a dif ﬁ cult place to access, most accounts of the ideological battles of the early 1990s are informed by materials found in libraries and by interviews conducted in Tbilisi. Meanwhile, however, life has gone on in a rump Abkhaz state. De-facto independence has been a social reality for 30 years. Shesterininina ’ s research design captures and ampli ﬁ es the worldview of her core subjects: self-de ﬁ ned Abkhaz patriots, currently living in Abkhazia. Her respondents remember a war of national liberation. She chose to live for a long time among residents of this unrecognized political organism. She asked a lot of her subjects. She earned their trust gradually. She makes it clear that Mobilization in Uncertainty stands on many shoulders: veterans that shared oral histories, countless deceased elementary school teachers and librarians who organized letter-writing campaigns in Soviet times, and more than one special archive that no other researcher will access. An Abkhaz nation is rei ﬁ ed with survivalist traits in Shesterinina ’ s text: adaptive, creative, and stubborn.","PeriodicalId":46452,"journal":{"name":"Ethnopolitics","volume":"22 1","pages":"104 - 107"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43881776","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}

The contributors to the Symposium picked up on these foundations. Their commentaries highlight the challenging ﬁ eldwork and careful attention to the voices of ordinary people underlying this book and my openness about the design and process of research, including the changes that took place along the way. They also point out empirical and theoretical contributions of the book, identifying the reconstruction of events of Abkhaz mobilization in the context of Georgian-Abkhaz con- ﬂ ict and the war of 1992 – 1993 in particular, the interaction of prewar shared understandings of con ﬂ ict and one ’ s role in it and social networks at the time of mobilization, and the sig-ni ﬁ cance of uncertainty in mobilization for war as the pillars of the book that can have inter-disciplinary purchase. I appreciate the generosity animating these commentaries. Caspersen ’ s, Driscoll ’ s, and Schatz ’ s critical engagement with the book also points to areas of clari ﬁ cation, discussion, and future research. I will begin by clarifying the purpose of the book, particularly in response to Driscoll ’ s commentary. I will then turn to questions of ‘ ex-post ’ explanation raised by Caspersen and will conclude by accepting Schatz ’ s invitation to think further about the generalizability and extensions of this research.","PeriodicalId":46452,"journal":{"name":"Ethnopolitics","volume":"22 1","pages":"112 - 120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42727548","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}

Drawing upon insights from recent fieldwork, it contrasts the diverse struggles of two of Uganda's most prominent Indigenous groups. Whereas the Batwa constitute a small group of (traditionally) hunter-gatherers from the southwestern District of Kisoro (and surrounding areas) who have low capacity to challenge the state, the Karamojong are a much larger group of agro-pastoralists from the northeastern region of Karamoja who have a long history of conflict and opposition to the central government. These cases highlight the diverging capacities of groups to protect their traditional lands, yet their shared struggle to secure both legal recognition as Indigenous and their right to FPIC from a hostile government. Given the obstacles facing these groups and the potential for FPIC to deepen cleavages between—and within—communities, the article concludes with some reflections for advancing the rights of Uganda's Indigenous peoples without enflaming the divisive identity politics that can accompany Indigenous land rights movements in certain political contexts.","PeriodicalId":46452,"journal":{"name":"Ethnopolitics","volume":"22 1","pages":"353 - 373"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46130211","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}
