In this special issue, leading neuroscientists and neurologists
present comprehensive review papers and empirical studies on the
topic of the neural basis of self-identification. From
philosophical definitions to single-case studies, the articles
provide the reader with a broad view of the self in contemporary
neuroscience. Review papers address the fundamental question of how
to define and study the construct of identity. Methods in empirical
studies range from socio-linguistic analyses to neuroimaging and
diverse patient populations. As a whole, this issue provides a
diverse sample of the myriad of ways in which identity is defined
and studied in contemporary neuroscience.
On the twelfth floor of an undistinguished-looking high-rise, a
tribunal adjudicates the human rights of Indigenous individuals.
Why isn't the process working? Witness to the Human Rights
Tribunals draws on testimony, ethnographic data, and years of
tribunal decisions to show how specific cases are fought, and
offers an in-depth look at anthropological expertise in the courts.
Bruce Miller's candid analysis reveals the double-edged nature of
the tribunal, which both protects human rights and re-engages the
trauma of discrimination that suffuses social and legal systems. He
definitively concludes that any reform must recognize symbolic
trauma before Indigenous claimants can receive appropriate justice.
