E RESUMO (ENTRADA LIVRE) The
Politics of Archaeological Theory, 2014 CE One
of the distinctive elements of the emergence of a so-called post-processual
archaeology from the 1980s onwards was that it emphasised a reflexive approach
to the discipline, and in particular a consideration of the political
implications of interpreting the past in the present. In recent years, it has
been suggested that a new revolution (or perhaps more realistically a gradual
development) has taken place in archaeological thought. This has involved the
adoption of a 'flat ontology', in which material things are considered
alongside human beings, rather than being only of subsidiary interest, and a
'speculative realism', in which the epistemological issue of how humans can
know the world is set aside in favour of addressing the actual nature of
physical things. Part of the manifesto for this approach within the social
sciences has been Bruno Latour's call for a 'democracy of things', and yet for
the most part, archaeologists have concentrated on the ethical rather than the
political ramifications of these arguments. To some extent this reflects the
way in which the discipline has edged away from political concerns over the
past twenty years, as part of our supposedly post-political era. In this
lecture, I will attempt to tease out some of the political implications of the
current drift of archaeological theory. ESTA
