It was drawn by Tupaia, an arioi priest, chiefly advisor and master navigator from Ra'iātea in the Leeward Society Islands in collaboration with various members of the crew of James Cook's Endeavour, in two distinct moments of mapmaking and three draft stages between August 1769 and February 1770. To this day, the identity of many islands on the chart, and the logic of their arrangement have posed a riddle to researchers. Drawing in part on archival material hitherto overlooked, in this long essay we propose a new understanding of the chart's cartographic logic, offer a detailed reconstruction of its genesis, and thus for the first time present a comprehensive reading of Tupaia's Map. The chart not only underscores the extent and mastery of Polynesian navigation, it is also a remarkable feat of translation between two very different wayfinding systems and their respective representational models.}, language = {en} } @misc{EcksteinSchwarz2019, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Schwarz, Anja}, title = {La carte de Tupaia, ma{\^i}tre d'astres et de navigation polyn{\´e}sienne}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, number = {170}, issn = {1866-8380}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-44538}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-445381}, pages = {156}, year = {2019}, abstract = {La carte de Tupaia constitue l'un des art{\´e}facts les plus c{\´e}l{\`e}bres et les plus {\´e}nigmatiques {\`a} {\´e}merger des toutes premi{\`e}res rencontres entre Europ{\´e}ens et {\^i}liens du Pacifique.

The spread of cassette recorders in the 1970s; the introduction of analogue and digital video formats in the 80s and 90s; the pervasive availability of recycled computer hardware; the global dissemination of the internet and mobile phones in the new millennium: all these have revolutionised the access of previously marginalised populations to the cultural flows of global modernity. Yet this access also engenders a pirate occupation of the modern: it ducks and deranges the globalised designs of property, capitalism and personhood set by the North. Positioning itself against Eurocentric critiques by corporate lobbies, libertarian readings or classical Marxist interventions, this volume offers a profound postcolonial revaluation of the social, epistemic and aesthetic workings of piracy. It projects how postcolonial piracy persistently negotiates different trajectories of property and self at the crossroads of the global and the local.}, language = {en} } @misc{EcksteinReinfandt2014, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Reinfandt, Christoph}, title = {Luhmann in the Contact Zone}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-85488}, pages = {107 -- 124}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @unpublished{EcksteinReindfandt2016, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Reindfandt, Christoph}, title = {Luhmann in da Contact Zone}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-103298}, pages = {15}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Our aim in this contribution is to productively engage with the abstractions and complexities of Luhmann's conceptions of society from a postcolonial perspective, with a particular focus on the explanatory powers of his sociological systems theory when it leaves the realms of Europe and ventures to describe regions of the global South. In view of its more recent global reception beyond Europe, our aim is to thus - following the lead of Dipesh Chakrabarty - provincialize Luhmann's system theory especially with regard to its underlying assumptions about a global "world society". For these purposes, we intend to revisit Luhmann in the post/colonial contact zone: We wish to reread Luhmann in the context of spaces of transcultural encounter where "global designs and local histories" (Mignolo), where inclusion into and exclusion from "world society" (Luhmann) clash and interact in intricate ways. The title of our contribution, 'Luhmann in da Contact Zone' is deliberately ambiguous: On the one hand, we of course use 'Luhmann' metonymically, as representative of a highly complex theoretical design. We shall cursorily outline this design with a special focus on the notion of a singular, modern "world society", only to confront it with the epistemic challenges of the contact zone. On the other hand, this critique will also involve the close observation of Niklas Luhman as a human observer (a category which within the logic of systems theory actually does not exist) who increasingly transpires in his late writings on exclusion in the global South. By following this dual strategy, we wish to trace an increasing fracture between one Luhmann and the other, between abstract theoretical design and personalized testimony. It is by exploring and measuring this fracture that we hope to eventually be able to map out the potential of a possibly more productive encounter between systems theory and specific strands of postcolonial theory for a pluritopic reading of global modernity.}, language = {en} } @unpublished{EcksteinHurley2020, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Hurley, Andrew Wright}, title = {German-Australian Colonial Entanglements}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-44449}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-444490}, pages = {30}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Remembering German-Australian Colonial Entanglements emphatically promotes a critical and nuanced understanding of the complex entanglement of German colonial actors and activities within Australian colonial institutions and different imperial ideologies.
