.
The most genera! questions addressed in this book concern the
relationship between individual and society, the political role
of ideology, and - ultimately - the limits of individual freedom.
The author asks how institutionalized power, in this case the co-
lonial polity of German Togo, formed its subjects. He points to
the importance of ideological/practical means for this process,
especially certain historically specific symbolic-ideological com-
plexes, or grand narratives and the associated ritual behavior
conducted in culturally determined space-time, whose discipli-
nary role consisted in shaping subjects cognitive principles of
differentiation and their mental and bodily dispositions (
tus) that were desirable from the point of view of power hold-
ers. Specifically, he analyzes the process and particular effects
of cooperation between holders of economic/political assets in
German Togo (the colonial administration and businesses) on the
one hand, and wielders of cultural/symbolic capital (the Catholic
order of Steyler Missionaries or Society of the Divine Word), on
the other, whose purpose was to discipline German-Togolese
colonial subjects by means of persuasive discourses, public ritual
processes, and individual micro techniques of the body.
Darius J. Piwowarczyk was born in 1958 in Jawor, Lower Silesia,
Poland. In 1983, after receiving his MA degree in ethnology from
the University of Wroclaw (Breslau), Poland, he joined the Society
of the Divine Word and worked as well as conducted research
in Paraguay (1992-1995, 1997, 2000). He completed his doctorate
in cultural anthropology at the Catholic University of Ameri-
ca in Washington, DC, in 2002, and then taught social sciences
at the Divine Word College in Epworth, IA. Since 2007, he has
been conducting extensive socio-historical research on Ger-
man colonialism (1884-1918). In 2016, he obtained postdoctoral
venia legendi for social anthropology at the University of Fribourg,
Switzerland. He currently works as the Editor-in-Chief of the
journal Anthropos in Sankt Augustin, Germany, as well as teaches
cultural and social anthropology at the Philosophisch-Theolo-
gische Hochschule SVD St. Augustin in Sankt Augustin and at the
University of Cracow, Poland.
