Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 2002.

By 'stance' I mean the semiotic means by which we indicate our evaluation of, or orientation to, states of affairs. In natural languages, this indication usually turns on various modes of either value (moral obligation, epistemic possibility) or intentionality (desire and memory, fear and disgust). Stances, then, are inherently reflexive: they indicate psychological qualities of the speaker, and evaluative resources of the speech community, in relation to the world spoken about. By 'second-order stance' I mean the stances speakers take towards their own and others' stances. While any stance is inherently reflexive, second-order stances are a condition for speakers to be relatively reflective about stances themselves. In particular, second-order stances are intrinsic to various modalities of personhood such as empathy, introspection, and choice. For these reasons, (second-order) stances provide a critical tool for social theory: an empirically tractable means to examine the irreducible relation between semiosis, identity, and interiority; and a metaphysically satisfying way to examine the emergent relations between personhood, agency, selfhood, and the soul.

520 $a This dissertation is based on two years of ethnographic and linguistic fieldwork among speakers of Q'eqchi'-Maya living in Chicacnab, a village of some 80 families located in highland Guatemala. I examine the relationship between stance and subjectivity in the context of an NGO's attempt to foster an eco-tourism project in this village, focusing on how local modalities of (im)material labor and local regimes of (in)commensuration interact with the NGO's neoliberal modes of governance. By introducing stance as an analytic tool, I hope to bring an adequately grounded theory of the subject back into the dialectic of language, power, history, and culture.
