Consensus, Community, And Exoticism, John W. Adams Oct 1981

Consensus, Community, And Exoticism, John W. Adams

Faculty Publications

Anthropological concepts, which have been taken out of context and applied without full understanding, have been misused by historians of colonial North America. Part of the difficulty is due to the normal hazards of incorporating the work of another field in one's own; and part is due to the reluctance of historians to employ monothematic explanations. This latter difficulty has led historians to favor those concepts of anthropology which are not easily measured.

The Law Of Elephants And The Justice Of Monkeys: Two Cases Of Anti-Colonialism In The Sudan, Richard A. Lobban Jr. Jan 1981

The Law Of Elephants And The Justice Of Monkeys: Two Cases Of Anti-Colonialism In The Sudan, Richard A. Lobban Jr.

Faculty Publications

So often the English language literature accepts the "civilizing" mission and "even-handed" governance of the colonial authorities. My research has shown that such judgments are difficult to support. Since this special commemorative issue of Africa Today is celebrating a quarter century of national independence of the Sudan I have sought to use the case study method to reconstruct something of the perception of colonial rule from the eyes of the colonized rather than colonizer. Although it should go without saying, the British forces arrived in the Sudan as a result of military conquest with battlefields anointed in Sudanese blood. Despite …

Channel Instability In A Braided Sand Bed River, William L. Graf Jan 1981

Channel Instability In A Braided Sand Bed River, William L. Graf

Faculty Publications

The Gila River of central Arizona is representative of braided, sand bed rivers in alluvial valleys that have inherent unstable behavior and destructive channel migration. The 112-year record of channel conditions along a portion of the Gila River provides data for the construction of locational probability maps for main flow channels. Zones of stability and hazardous instability alternate with each other at 3.2 km (2 mi) intervals. During the past century the overall sinuosity of the main flow channel has remained close to 1.18, despite numerous changes in actual location. Spatial and temporal variation of sinuosity have occurred in subreaches …
