Brief description
Russian full scale invasion of Ukraine has significant geopolitical and biopolitical consequences for Russian society and neighbouring countries. The tightening of the Putin’s biopolitical regime, however, could be visible much earlier. By referring to the existing literature on biopolitics, thanatopolitics and particularly on analysis of the Putin’s regime as a biopolitical regime, and by referring to the existing data including first-hand ethnographic materials collected during the field research in Russia and neighbouring countries, these seminars encourage the discussions on shape and particularities of Putin’s biopolitical regime and their impact on Russian citizens and societies of neighbouring countries. |

Brief description
The concepts of governmentality and biopolitics are among key elements of the toolkit of contemporary social theory. Originally proposed by Michel Foucault, they have been variously adopted, adapted, and rearticulated by numerous other scholars since. This course explores selected approaches to governmentality and biopolitics in political philosophy and social science, as well as some of the various ways these concepts have been operationalized in social anthropology. |

Brief description
This course explores the innovative literature from anthropology, philosophy, sociology, political science, jurisprudence, and other disciplines that broadens the concepts of 'politics' and 'the political' to include non-human living beings. Humans live in a common world they co-create with countless other organisms, entangled in complex relations that involve power. The acknowledgment of this fact poses challenges to our understanding of politics, which since Aristotle has been conceptualized as uniquely human. How does the presence of other-than-human life impact the meaning and the substance of the political? And how might concepts drawn from political theory elucidate our relationships with our fellow Earthlings? |

Brief description
The course presents the development of political anthropology from the beginning of the 20th century to the present. It first discusses the roots of political anthropology in political philosophy of the 17th-19th centuries. Subsequently, the course presents British political anthropology from structural functionalism to the actionist and processual approaches of the 1960s. Then it moves on to the challenges posed to political anthropology by colonialism and decolonialisation, modernisation theory and the development discourse, globalization, socialism, and post-socialism. Particular attention is paid to the anthropology of the state. Toward the end of the semester, the recent turn to 'anarchist anthropology' is outlined. |

Brief description
This course draws on the growing interdisciplinary literature on the social lives of diverse material infrastructures. It explores infrastructure not merely as taken-for-granted background or passive object of politics, but as agentive and generative of political effects. To do so, the course combines ethnographic and theoretical readings from anthropology, sociology, geography, political science and Science and Technology Studies. |
