E THNOGRAPHIES OF M OVEMENT , S OCIALITY AND S PACE

Material Mediations: People and Things in a World of Movement

Edited by Birgit Meyer, Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Utrecht University, and Maruka Svaek, School of History, Anthropology, Philosophy and Politics, Queens University, Belfast.

During the last few years, a lively, interdisciplinary debate has taken place between anthropologists, art historians and scholars of material culture, religion, visual culture and media studies about the dynamics of material production and cultural mediation in an era of intensifying globalization and transnational connectivity. Understanding mediation as a fundamentally material process, this series provides a stimulating platform for ethnographically grounded theoretical debates about the many aspects that constitute relationships between people and things, including political, economic, technological, aesthetic, sensorial and emotional processes.

A CKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Intellectual work is never a stand-alone exercise. It is always and without exception collaborative: what we write and how we write it is always born in dialogue with the ideas of others; whether we write depends on the encouragement and the support of others. You are holding this book because we, the authors and editors, have each and together been generously helped along the way to writing and publishing it. We extend our warmest thanks to all who, knowingly or not, have walked this way with and beside us. Above all, there is one group of collaborators, without whom any kind of social research is doomed to fail, we would like to mention at the very start. These are the people that we study, and whose voices we represent and draw upon in our analyses. We are grateful to them all.

The initial thoughts for this book first arose in 2013 when, fulfilling the role of postgraduate coordinator in anthropology at the then School of History and Anthropology at Queens University Belfast, Maruka facilitated the weekly anthropology postgraduate seminar. Partly student led, the seminar offers a platform for students in anthropology, ethnomusicology, Irish studies and other disciplines to present and discuss their research at different stages of completion. It is characterized by lively discussions about theories, methods and ethical issues around fieldwork, often ending in a visit to the pub. Maruka would like to take the opportunity to thank all the postgraduate students who have attended the anthropology postgraduate seminar in the past decade for their creative input and dedication. The work presented by MA and PhD students in 2013 was of such a high standard that the idea for a possible publication arose.

Due to the location of Queens University Belfast, the MA and PhD programmes in anthropology and ethnomusicology tend to attract students interested in aspects of Northern Irish politics, in particular the Troubles and their legacy. Until a few years ago, research-based dissertations focused, for example, on victimhood and commemoration, political murals, marching bands, and processes of peace building. As this book demonstrates, more recently students have also chosen alternative topics, partly in reaction to the changing social and political landscape of the region. This sparked the idea for a book that would challenge the image of Northern Ireland as a conflict-ridden society.
