DESCRIPTION:Anthropologist and mortician\, Ruth E. Toulson\, takes you beh
 ind the scenes in a Singaporean funeral parlor.\n\nWhile multiple authors
  have probed the corpse's power as a potent political symbol\, much of th
 e existing literature on necropolitics has an exclusive focus on contexts
  of violent regime change\, on the bodies of political leaders\, or of "t
 he dead" understood as an undifferentiated mass.\n\nIn Singapore\, in con
 trast\, Toulson argues that the manipulation of corpses is a quotidian st
 rategy of political power\, part of the everyday actions of a stable stat
 e. What's more\, the corpses this state puts to its use are those of ordi
 nary people\, whose unremarkable deaths are marked in what seem initially
  to be unremarkable ways.\n\nThe embalmed body\, she argues\, is a partic
 ularly fraught sites of the politic. But how this comes to be is a puzzle
 \, for the state has little interest in legislating ritual or grief. Toul
 son offers a new anthropology of death\, one both more personal and polit
 icized\, a necropolitics of the ordinary.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nRuth E. 
 Toulson is a sociocultural anthropologist whose research focuses on the d
 ead body\, and death's material culture in Southeast and East Asia. Train
 ed at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology\, University of Cambridg
 e\, Toulson has a multi-sited collaborative international research agenda
  that combines long-term ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth work in muse
 um collections.\n\nProfessor Toulson's scholarship explores the intersect
 ion of death and the state\, particularly in moments of sociopolitical tr
 ansition. She probes this intersection by focusing particularly on the de
 ad body as a form of highly politicized material culture. Her research pr
 ogram has resulted in published work\, including a book\, "Necropolitics 
 of the Ordinary: Death and Grieving in Contemporary Singapore" (2025\, Un
 iversity of Washington Press)\, and numerous book chapters and peer-revie
 wed articles\, including in "Journal of Material Culture." She is an asso
 ciate editor of the journal "Anthropology and Humanism."
