The Future

This forum builds on the discussion stimulated during an online salon in which the authors participated on June 25, 2020, entitled “Archaeology in the Time of Black Lives Matter,” and which was cosponsored by the Society of Black Archaeologists (SBA), the North American Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG), and the Columbia Center for Archaeology. The online salon reflected on the social unrest that gripped the United States in the spring of 2020, gauged the history and conditions leading up to it, and considered its rippling throughout the disciplines of archaeology and heritage preservation. Within the forum, the authors go beyond reporting the generative conversation that took place in June by presenting a road map for an antiracist archaeology in which antiblackness is dismantled.

Asymmetrical Power

AbstractNegotiators for powerful, self-reliant states tend to be less responsive to weak states relative to domestic constituents, while negotiators for states entangled in ties of asymmetric interdependence with more powerful states tend to be more responsive to the demands of powerful states than to the demands of domestic constituents. Asymmetrical power does not necessarily lead to asymmetrical results, however, because negotiators in weaker states may, nevertheless, have more attractive non-agreement alternatives and a longer shadow of the future. Negotiators with attractive non-agreement alternatives will be more willing to put agreement at risk by withholding concessions in the negotiation process. Centralized and vertical institutions are often a bargaining liability precisely because weak states tend to be less responsive to domestic constituents, whereas divided government can be a major asset. These propositions are demonstrated through an analysis and reconstruction of the North American Free Trade negotiation process.

The Relationship

This chapter is based on two national surveys of associates and vowed religious that CARA conducted in 2015, replicating a 2000–2002 CARA study of the same population. Both studies were commissioned by the North American Conference of Associates and Religious (NACAR). The chapter focuses on the relationship between associates and vowed religious, what attracts and sustains associates in this relationship, and how both groups view the future of the associate relationship. Most associates are attracted to the spiritual life and mission of the institute, which is how associates build their relationship with vowed religious. To continue this relationship, associates are willing to assume more control for associate activities. Aging populations and attracting younger members are a challenge for both associates and religious. Both groups are struggling to ensure sustainable leadership for the future.
