Антропология времени: очерк истории и современности
Этнографическое обозрение. 2021. № 6. С. 83–103.
This essay charts the history of the anthropology of time from the vantage point of what I see as its
key contemporary problem: that of temporal multiplicity. I find it endemic to virtually every ethnographic
context where one finds often radically different ways to understand time, measure it and
account for the past, the present and the future. The problem is, if ethnographically time is multiple,
how can we understand relations between different temporalities in such multiplicities? How are they
organised? Drawing on my own ethnography and on other current work, I argue for at least two different
ways to conceptualise multiplicity through relations of (1) change and (2) exchange between
different temporalities

The Gulag as a system of terror and forced labor was the
cornerstone of Soviet mobilization efforts in the 1930s.
Paradoxically, during the war with Nazi Germany, the
Gulag’s capacities and economic significance did not grow,
but in fact declined, contrary to what one would expect. The
massive use of prisoners as a source for replenishing the
