Introduction, Neil P. Bernstein

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

In this issue, the Iowa Academy of Science honors three of our colleagues who passed away in 2000. Duane Isely, Larry Eilers, and George Knaphus shared many of the same interests. All three were botanists, although George's research on fungi and heterotrophic protistans relegated him to the botany departments only by default. However, more importantly, all three were teachers. I believe that one of the lessons that they would have taught was the need to carefully document present patterns if we are to understand the future. However, many biologists poorly support this concept today.

Men Kissing, Lisa M. Tillmann Ph.D.

Faculty Publications

The author, a heterosexual woman, uses the theme of men kissing to show relational dynamics in her fieldwork community, a network of gay male friends. Political implications of public same-sex kissing also are discussed. At the time the events described in "Men Kissing" occurred (1997) and for six more years, it was not legal for persons of the same sex to be intimate in Florida and 13 other states.

Latino Access To Health Care: The Role Of Insurance, Managed Care, And Institutional Barriers, J. Emilio Carrillo, Fernando M. Trevino, Joseph R. Betancourt, Alberto Coustasse

Management Faculty Research

The health care system in the United States is the most expensive and yet arguably among the least cost effective in the developed world (Anderson, 1998). Despite the highest per person health care spending among the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) nations, the United States still ranks below many along a variety of health indicators (Woolhandler & Himmelstein, 1991). In a complicated health care system where the rules are many and economic forces drive both structure and function, the needs of vulnerable populations inevitably suffer. This chapter explores the consequences of these market forces on a vulnerable population--Latinos …

The Role Of Witnessing In Performance Ethnography, Dennis M. Doyle

Iowa Journal of Communication

Central connections between performance studies theory with current practices in ethnographic fieldwork are giving rise to new ways of understanding all aspects of the performance process. Performance ethnography weaves together traditional methods of theatrical production with emerging new understandings of ethnographic fieldwork. The intersection of methodologies introduces new accountabilities and responsibilities for performance participants. The term witness, for example, may offer explanatory power when discussing the altered roles and accountabilities of participants within performance ethnography. This essay explores different applications of the term witness, placing these applications in dialogue to determine the potential witnessing holds for describing the kind of …

Some of these papers in turn focused on ''agency,'' the ways …

Household Archaeology And Reconstructing Social Organization In Ancient Complex Societies: A Consideration Of Models And Concepts Based On Study Of The Prehispanic Maya, Julia A. Hendon

Anthropology Faculty Publications

Studies of the settlement pattern in the Copan Valley, Honduras, indicate that a House society model provides the best way to understand the social organization of the Late Classic period Maya. The House society model, based on Levi-Strauss's original work but since modified by anthropologists and archaeologists, does not replace household archaeology. Instead, the model allows archaeologists to discuss the continuation of social identity over time.

Cultural Competence In Epidemiological Field Work With Cultures In Flux: Romania, Diane Depken, Catherine Zeman

International Journal of Global Health

This article is a case study of conducting field -based epidemiological work in a former communist country. A brief background of Romanian history and culture is followed by discussion of the challenges of doing epidemiological science in a culture experiencing socio-political flux. In this former communist country where a common understanding of specific methods of epidemiological science and research ethics is not necessarily shared by both visiting and indigenous scientists, successful fieldwork depends on a high degree of understanding, sensitivity, and patience. The United States Department of Health and Human Services' Office of Minority Health, OMH provides guidelines for culturally …
