Concern About Eating Genetically Engineered Food, Glenn D. Israel, Thomas J. Hoban Dec 1992

Concern About Eating Genetically Engineered Food, Glenn D. Israel, Thomas J. Hoban

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

Concern about eating genetically engineered food is explored for a sample of residents from Florida and North Carolina. Previous research on consumers' food safety concerns and perceived risk associated with food production suggests that concern about genetically engineered food is influenced by three factors. Concern is influenced by how well informed consumers are about food technology, their capacity to understand that information, and the compatibility of genetic engineering with consumers' moral beliefs. Utilizing logistic regression, women and persons who viewed genetic engineering to be morally wrong were found to have greater concern about eating genetically engineered foods. Awareness and educational …

The Cultural Interpretation Of Breast Cancer, Jessica Gregg Jul 1992

The Cultural Interpretation Of Breast Cancer, Jessica Gregg

Southern Anthropologist

By attaching meaning to illness, cultural demystifies seem­ingly random conditions, while simulta­neously entrapping them in inescapable webs of significance. Humans are caught between the need to and give meaning to illness, and the danger of giving illness an interpretation that ul­timately proves deleterious to victims of disease, and to society itself. This paper argues that in the de­veloped Western cultures*, breast cancer is an example of an illness "marked with cultural salience" and saturated with cul­tural meaning. I contend that within the developed Western nations, breast can­cer has developed a pervasive, culture-specific meaning, and that as Western culture has created …

The Practical Importance Of National Character Studies, Honggang Yang

Southern Anthropologist

Over a decade after Hsu's recognition of the urgency of national characte r studies, the pressing need is still there, especially in light of the demand for the anthropo­logical application to the author's career. In this essay, the significance of the approach is exemplified, and im­pediments to its furtherance are revealed. Honggang Yang, a Chinese anthropologist who received his Ph.D. from University of South Florida in 1991, is presently a Research Associate of Conflict Resolution Programs at the Carter Center of Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia.

From Giviaks To Geopolitics: Grabbing Students Who Don't Plan To Major In Anthropology, And Never Will, Burton L. Purrington Feb 1992

From Giviaks To Geopolitics: Grabbing Students Who Don't Plan To Major In Anthropology, And Never Will, Burton L. Purrington

Southern Anthropologist

Most students in my introductory classes are having their first and only formal experience with anthropology, and this may be their only opportunity to examine in­depth beliefs and lifeways different from their own. Graphic examples of cultural practices quite outside the students' experience are analyzed in part to get their atten­tion and in part to dispel ethnocentric stereotypes by showing that seemingly weird practices make sense in the context of Lheir natural, historical, and sociocultural en­vironments. VigneLtes from the students' own society and contemporary sociopoliti­cal issues are similarly subjected to anthropological analysis to show the relevance of this view of …

Through The Looking Glass: Cartoons And Anthropology, Beverlye Hancock, Dorothy J. Cattle Feb 1992

Through The Looking Glass: Cartoons And Anthropology, Beverlye Hancock, Dorothy J. Cattle

Southern Anthropologist

For over twenty-five years, anthropologists have been concerned about the teaching of anthropology, especially introductory anthropology. A major concern has been with the re­sources available to teach introductory courses and another concern has been with teaching methods. This paper describes how both concerns are resolved in a unique way. Students discover, provide, and explain sets of a specific type of "resource," cartoons, and in turn, a departmental museum presents them as an exhibit. In this way, anthropology is introduced to a wider audience and methodology extended be­yond the classroom. Students are collaborators in this broader educational venture.
