Time poetics and ageing in the Ik mountains: seeing time disappear Poétique du temps et vieillissement dans les montagnes des Iks : voir le temps disparaître

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In the Ik mountains in Uganda, only few old people still have the skills to ‘see time’ with sundials. Common ways of knowing time and age now include phones and ID cards in digital registers.

Still here: age and generational time Encore là : âge et temps générationnel

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The passage of generational time may be one of the most fundamental ways of experiencing ageing; we age in relation to others with whom our lives are intertwined – by becoming a grandmother or losing a father.

Doing time in old age: unsettling ethics in carceral circuits Vieillir en prison : l’éthique dérangeante des circuits carcéraux

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Since the early 2000s, the proportion of older adults in Japanese penal institutions has risen dramatically, driven largely by high rates of recidivism. This trend has developed alongside growing social insecurity about crime, as well as anxiety about old age and care in a time of increasing neoliberal discourses of individualized risk and ...

The perplexity of Christmas trees: ageing, errantry, and intersectional time La perplexité des arbres de Noël : vieillissement, errance et temps intersectionnel

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
What is offered by considering ageing, ethics, and intersectionality from a critical phenomenological perspective that draws upon critical race theory? Based upon an extended ethnography of African Americans raising children with illnesses and disabilities, I consider the Christmas trees that a grandmother lovingly decorated each year.
