COVID-19: THE ‘INVISIBLE ENEMY’ AND CONTINGENT RACISM: Reflections of an Italian anthropologist conducting fieldwork in Greece

In this text, the creator supplies a story of her expertise as an Italian endeavor fieldwork in Greece whereas the epidemic was in full swing. She displays on representations of ‘the invisible enemy’: an empty class, she claims, which has been contingently stuffed and morally loaded, resting on pre-existing classes, akin to stereotypical representations of nations.
The invisibility of ‘the enemy’ has in reality been rendered seen by means of what she refers to as contingent racism; this consists of the ever present and therefore highly effective use of irony and satire on the expense of China and Italy, but additionally expands to the use of banal and handy tropes of accusation and derision amongst European Union member states, bringing again to the fore the North-South divide and its energy imbalances.
The creator means that the Covid-19 disaster has in the end provoked a veritable epidemic of contingent racism on a number of ranges by stirring stereotypes and cultural prejudices that are rooted in time and quickly renewed; its impact is all however contingent, and prone to accompany us far past the Covid-19 disaster itself.

Contested legitimacy for anthropologists concerned in medical humanitarian motion: experiences from the 2014-2016 West Africa Ebola epidemic.

The rising involvement of anthropologists in medical humanitarian response efforts has laid naked the ethical and moral penalties that emerge from humanitarian motion. Anthropologists are effectively positioned to look at the social, political, cultural and financial dimensions that affect the unfold of illnesses, and the methods in which to answer epidemics. Anthropologists are additionally, with care, in a position to flip a important lens on medical humanitarian response.
However, there stays some resistance to involving anthropologists in response actions in the sphere. Drawing on interviews with anthropologists and humanitarian employees concerned in the 2014-2016 West African Ebola epidemic, this paper reveals the advanced roles taken on by anthropologists in the sphere and divulges how anthropologists confronted questions of legitimacy vis-à-vis communities and responders in their roles in response actions, which centered on performing as ‘firefighters’ and ‘cultural brokers’ in addition to legitimacy as tutorial researchers.
Whilst these anthropologists have been in a position to conduct analysis alongside these actions, or draw on anthropological information to tell response actions, questions additionally arose concerning the legitimacy of these roles for anthropological academia. We conclude that the method of gaining legitimacy from all these completely different constituencies is explicit to anthropologists and divulges the position of ‘giving voice’ to communities alongside critiquing medical humanitarianism.
Whilst these anthropologists have strengthened the argument for the involvement of anthropologists in epidemic response this anthropological engagement with medical humanitarianism has revealed theoretical issues extra broadly for the self-discipline, as highlighted by means of engagement in different fields, particularly in human rights and international well being.

The Role of the Anthropologist in Identification at Two Urban Medical Examiner Offices: New York City and Harris County.

Two city jurisdiction medical expert workplaces, the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (NYC OCME) and the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences (HCIFS), obtain massive numbers of unidentified decedents annually. In 2015, the NYC OCME obtained over 400 decedents whose identities have been initially reported as unknown. The HCIFS obtained 226 unknown decedent circumstances in 2015.
These workplaces have confronted related challenges in the previous when pursuing identification of long-term and in any other case advanced identification circumstances. Within the previous decade, the NYC OCME and HCIFS have efficiently built-in forensic anthropologists into their workplaces to oversee routine identifications, direct decision efforts in advanced identification circumstances, handle catastrophe sufferer identification efforts, and set up neighborhood outreach occasions centered on identification.
Accordingly, the NYC OCME and HCIFS anthropologists have efficiently streamlined identification procedures to make them extra environment friendly for all circumstances, and elevated identifications of fully unknown people, successfully discharging the statutory accountability held by the Chief Medical Examiner for decedent identification.

The Forensic Anthropologist in the Mass Fatality Context.

Mass fatality incidents require a multi-agency, multidisciplinary response to successfully and effectively handle the restoration and identification of human stays. The forensic anthropologist is uniquely fitted to a big position in the catastrophe response, demonstrated in the restoration and triage of human stays, interpretation of skeletal trauma, and identification of victims.
However, the bulk of revealed literature discusses these response operations in the context of large-scale incidents with important numbers of extremely fragmented and commingled human stays, which doesn’t mirror the operational actuality of mass fatality incidents in the United States. This article supplies a sensible definition of the time period “mass fatality incident” for medicolegal jurisdictions and supplies the contributions of the forensic anthropologist for all sorts of incidents.

The Role of the Anthropologist in the Identification of Migrant Remains in the American Southwest.

This article focuses on the position of the forensic anthropologist in the identification of migrant stays in the American Southwest. These migrant circumstances current a novel set of circumstances that necessitate a regional strategy to identification. The Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner (PCOME), positioned in Tucson, Arizona has developed greatest practices that facilitate excessive identification charges of migrant deaths.
These greatest practices have offered a basis for different companies which are confronted with related points; specifically, creating particular protocols for migrant deaths, working with nongovernmental humanitarian organizations, and sharing info have maximized identification efforts. In 2012, Texas surpassed Arizona in the quantity of migrant deaths.
