The 2022 Culture @Large Distinguished Lecture (Please note-this event is now a virtual event)

With Neferti X. M. Tadiar

“Milieus of Capital, Ambient Splendor”

12:15 PM
In this talk Tadiar will draw on her recent book, Remaindered Life (Duke 2022), to argue for a new conceptual vocabulary to rethink the dynamics of global capitalism maintained through permanent imperial war. Tadiar develops the concept of  being remaindered to describe the surplus life produced by those neither considered entirely expendable nor considered worthy of protection. Drawing on the everyday lives of migrants, domestic workers, and urban slum dwellers, as well as on the repertoire of artists and filmmakers who visibilize remaindered life, Tadiar’s talk will significantly expand our anthropological notions of capital and place, surplus value and dispossession. 


Neferti X. Tadiar is Professor of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Barnard College. She is the author of several books including, Things Fall Away: Philipine Historical Experience and the Makings of Globalization, Fantasy-Production: Sexual Economies and Other Philipine Consequences for the New World Order, and most recently, Remaindered Life.
Culture@Large [culanth.org] is the Society for Cultural Anthropology’s signature contribution to the annual meeting of the American Anthropological Association, in which an influential scholar from outside of the discipline engages in critical discussion with anthropologists.
