Anthropos 100.2005: 193-210 Communal Longevity The Hutterite Case Hanna Kienzier Abstract. - This article reviews ethnographic studies on Hutterite society in order to convey an overview of the ethno graphic writs released during the past thirty years. Thereby the focus will be on factors that have been found to be re lated to the group’s long-term survival. In order to not only describe and analyse an arbitrary accumulation of such factors, Christoph Brumann’s concept of assessing and analysing com munal longevity will be applied onto the Hutterite case. In his book “Die Kunst des Teilens” (1998) he points out that the circumstances leading to communal long-term survival largely depend on the impact of different cultural domains. [Hutterites, communal longevity] Hanna Kienzler studied cultural anthropology at the Univer sity of Tübingen, Germany (M. A. 2004) and the University of Victoria, Canada. She is now planning to do her Ph.D. on Kosovo-Albanian women suffering and coping with their personal war trauma. The Hutterites - An Ethnographic Example for Long-Term Communal Survival The Hutterites of North America are physical de scendants of the Anabaptist movement that orig inated in Austria in 1525. Like other Anabaptist groups, the Hutterites were subject to severe per secution during the early years of the movement. In order to protect themselves they sought refuge in Moravia, Central Europe, where they received official protection and were exempt from having to serve in the army or pay war taxes. In 1593, when war broke out between the Habsburg Empire and Turkey, Moravia was occupied by the Turks and many Hutterites were killed or taken into slavery as a consequence. In 1622, all members of the group were expelled from Moravia and thus fled to Hungary, where they experienced sustained persecution at the hands of the Catholic authorities. Continued persecution in the 18th century led them to seek refuge in Russia, where they were able to live free from outside interference. Howev er, after fifteen years of communal life in Russia, the Hutterites had to pack their belongings once again in order to migrate to North America. The reason for their departure was a new decree that demanded the Hutterite men who were staying in Russia to participate in the compulsory military service. Just like many other German-speaking groups from Russia and the Ukraine, the Hutterites reached the port of New York aboard the Har monia (out of Hamburg) in summer 1874. With the help of land and travel agents they settled in the Dakota Territory (Hartse 1993: 11-25). Upon their arrival the Hutterites split into three different subgroups called Leut: Dariusleut, Lehrerleut, and Schmiedeleut. The first Dariusleut settlement was just 40 miles north of Wolf Creek. The Lehrerleut built their first colony at Elm Spring and the Schmiedeleut settlement was at Bon Homme. Until World War I, the Hutterites attracted very little attention. Yet, once the war began, their situation changed radically. As German-speaking pacifists, who refused to wear uniforms and to contribute to the war effort in any way, several Hutterite men were brutally abused in the army guardhouses and American federal penitentiaries (Stephenson 1991:67). The abusive treatment of
