摘要

考古学家们最近一直在讨论考古学的未来，他们认为考古学的学科是真实的、合法的，应该有一个未来。在这篇论文中，我想挑战这些观点，转而思考考古学是否应该有未来。这条推理路线是通过考察资本主义与学院之间的关系、新自由主义向高等教育的转变，以及考古学家的一些回应方式来发展的。最后，我提出了一些可供选择的建议，这些建议既适用于那些在占主导地位的资本主义学术结构内部工作的人，也适用于那些回避资本主义本身的人。

Should Archaeology Have a Future?

Archaeologists have recently been discussing what the future may hold for archaeology, a focus firmly situated within the context that the discipline of archaeology is authentic and legitimate and deserves to have a future. In this paper, I want to challenge these ideas and think instead about whether archaeology should even have a future. This line of reasoning is developed by examining the relationship between capitalism and the academy, neoliberal transformations to higher education, and some of the ways that archaeologists have responded. I conclude with some suggestions for alternatives, both for those working within the dominant capitalist academic structures themselves and those that eschew capitalism itself.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Contemporary Archaeology is the first dedicated, international, peer-reviewed journal to explore archaeology’s specific contribution to understanding the present and recent past. It is concerned both with archaeologies of the contemporary world, defined temporally as belonging to the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as with reflections on the socio-political implications of doing archaeology in the contemporary world. In addition to its focus on archaeology, JCA encourages articles from a range of adjacent disciplines which consider recent and contemporary material-cultural entanglements, including anthropology, art history, cultural studies, design studies, heritage studies, history, human geography, media studies, museum studies, psychology, science and technology studies and sociology. Acknowledging the key place which photography and digital media have come to occupy within this emerging subfield, JCA includes a regular photo essay feature and provides space for the publication of interactive, web-only content on its website.
