Economic Diversification And Sustainable Development: The Role Non-Timber Forest Products Play In The Monetization Of Kayapó Livelihoods , Laura C. Zanotti
Economic Diversification And Sustainable Development: The Role Non-Timber Forest Products Play In The Monetization Of Kayapó Livelihoods , Laura C. Zanotti
Journal of Ecological Anthropology
This paper analyzes the level of market integration of a relatively isolated Kayapó community. The goal is to understand how the commercial networks devoted to non-timber forest products are affecting one community by including cash-income into the economic life of communities previously dominated by non-monetary transactions but currently dominated by a mix of monetary and non-monetary practices. Non-timber forest product projects are a much lauded and much criticized form of sustainable forestry management. This case study analyses different non-timber forest product projects in Aukre, a village that is part of the Kayapó Indigenous Territories, Brazil. Th is article identifi es …
Reviving A Traditional Pasture Management System In Fentale, East Central Ethiopia, Shimelis Beyene, Dafa Gudina
Reviving A Traditional Pasture Management System In Fentale, East Central Ethiopia, Shimelis Beyene, Dafa Gudina
Journal of Ecological Anthropology
In this paper, we describe the process of establishing dry season grass reserves, traditionally known as kalo, among Kereyu and Ittu pastoralists of Fentale in the Awash Valley of eastern central Ethiopia. The data were primarily collected using qualitative research methods such as key informant interviews, group discussions, field observations, and records of community meetings and non-governmental organization (NGO) project reports. In the last decade and a half, several attempts were made by NGOs and local governments to encourage pastoralists to revive their traditional practices of setting aside grass reserves for seasonal grazing, but only a few such private enclosures …
Teetering Towards Economic Sustainability: Alternatives For Commercial Fishermen, Barbara Jones
Teetering Towards Economic Sustainability: Alternatives For Commercial Fishermen, Barbara Jones
Journal of Ecological Anthropology
Sustainable fishing has become a challenging problem for commercial fishermen all over the world. Many efforts to pursue a livelihood based on commercially harvesting fish suffer from catch limits and closings intended to protect diminishing fish resources; rising prices for waterfront real estate that currently houses their home ports; and competition from recreational fishermen. In order to continue a commercial fishing way of life, fishermen are resorting to what they are told represent economic sustainable alternatives to fishing, including aquaculture, retail markets, educational/museum facilities, restaurants, and parks. Yet, can a fisherman remain a fisherman if he is seen as an …

Subsistence And Seasonality At A Late Prehistoric House Pit In Northwest Alaska, Scott Shirar
Subsistence And Seasonality At A Late Prehistoric House Pit In Northwest Alaska, Scott Shirar
Journal of Ecological Anthropology
In this report, I examine a house from a Late Prehistoric village site near the confluence of Maiyumerak Creek and the Noatak River in the Noatak National Preserve, Alaska. In 2006, several thousand artifacts and over 100,000 faunal remains were excavated from this approximately 500-year-old house. Faunal remains and subsistencerelated artifacts associated with the living fl oor of the house were analyzed to assess diet and seasonal occupation. I also address how this house fits into previously proposed Late Prehistoric land- and resource-use models. The dietary reconstruction shows that both classes of data (artifacts and fauna) indicate a primary reliance …

The Culture Industry, Hip Hop Music, And The White Perspective: How One Dimensional Representation Of Hip Hop Music Has Influenced White Racial Attitudes, Walter Edward Hart
The Culture Industry, Hip Hop Music, And The White Perspective: How One Dimensional Representation Of Hip Hop Music Has Influenced White Racial Attitudes, Walter Edward Hart
Sociology & Anthropology Theses - Archive
This theoretical study builds from Ben Agger's theory in his 1992 book, Cultural Studies as Critical Theory:The ideological outcomes of the culture industry are in a sense unintended; they emerge in the interplay of authorial, directorial, and audience assumptions about the nature of the world. (Agger 1992:65)I theorize the effect of the culture industry's cycle of assumptions on the one-dimensional representation of hip hop music and its reflection and reinforcement of Whites' perceptions of Blacks and Black Culture. The reinforcement of Whites' historically negative racial attitudes emerge unintended through a complex cycle of assumptions between the director (culture industry), the …
Historical Archaeology At The Berachah Rescue Home: A Holistic Approach And Analysis Of An Industrial Homestead In Arlington, Texas, Cody Shane Davis
Historical Archaeology At The Berachah Rescue Home: A Holistic Approach And Analysis Of An Industrial Homestead In Arlington, Texas, Cody Shane Davis
Sociology & Anthropology Theses - Archive
Excavations at the historic Berachah Rescue Home in Arlington, Texas were undertaken as part of the 2003 and 2004 University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) Archaeological Field Schools. The excavations explored several features surrounding the Berachah Rescue Home Cemetery on UTA property. The site was heavily disturbed by bulldozing activities and the expansion of surrounding neighborhoods and UTA. The conjunctive approach, as described by Walter Taylor (1983), for analysis of historic archaeological sites was utilized to understand the fullest cultural context of Berachah Rescue Home. Three components, archival research, oral histories, and archaeological data, were examined to reconstruct this historic …
The Facial Masculinity Of Women In Sex Segregated Occupations, Chawki Ahmed Belhadi
The Facial Masculinity Of Women In Sex Segregated Occupations, Chawki Ahmed Belhadi
Sociology & Anthropology Theses - Archive
This purpose of the study was to bring more definition to the "problem" of occupational sex segregation, specifically why male-dominated occupations like engineering, firefighting, and the military still remain sex segregated. The study attempted to do so by integrating two findings: 1) the finding that women in male-dominated occupations are more dominant than women in female-dominated occupations, and 2) the finding that facially masculine women are more dominant than facially submissive women. Facial photos of women from occupations that are at least 90% male dominated and at least 90% female dominated were culled from the internet and rated for their …
A Diachronic Perspective Of Marine Shell Use From Structure B1 At Blackman Eddy, Belize, Jennifer Lynn Cochran
A Diachronic Perspective Of Marine Shell Use From Structure B1 At Blackman Eddy, Belize, Jennifer Lynn Cochran
Sociology & Anthropology Theses - Archive
This thesis examines the marine shell artifacts recovered from Structure B1 at the site of Blackman Eddy, Belize. Typological and taxonomic analyses provided useful information on the types of artifacts used and the species utilized at the site. Two categories were identified in this assemblage, 1) worked shell artifacts and 2) shell debitage. An analysis of both worked shell artifacts and shell debitage was important to this study as it provided information about the use and significance of each category in the past. A contextual analysis helped to identify patterns of use and deposition. Examining the contextual designations of all …
Guiltless Girls: Unpacking 100-Calorie Snacks, Lauren London
Guiltless Girls: Unpacking 100-Calorie Snacks, Lauren London
Sociology & Anthropology Theses - Archive
The intended purpose of this paper is to consider how 100 calorie snacks are primarily advertised and produced for women. Little research has been done on 100 calorie snacks as they were introduced to the food market in 2004. Portioned control snacks came to be another way for the food industry to prey on women's insecurities about their looks and their weight. Although 100 calorie snacks are marketed as a sensible snacking tool they are geared towards women as a weight loss product. First, I examined what society believes is the "idealized" woman and how many women strive to become …

The Limits Of International Humanitarian Law, Melissa Eli
The Limits Of International Humanitarian Law, Melissa Eli
Human Rights & Human Welfare
The goal of international humanitarian law is to humanize war in an effort to minimize human suffering and the long-term negative consequences of war. However, despite the adoption by most countries of the Geneva Conventions and other relevant agreements, crimes of war occur in every conflict around the world on a regular basis. Additionally, as the form of warfare changes, so does the implementation and consequences of various war crimes. Genocide, systematic rape, and the use of child soldiers are three of the most significant war crimes facing sub-Saharan Africa today. Each has consequences so severe that specific international laws …
Exorcising The Specter Of Development: Human Rights In The 21st Century, Frezzo, Farshad Araghi
Exorcising The Specter Of Development: Human Rights In The 21st Century, Frezzo, Farshad Araghi
Societies Without Borders
With the commodification of rights as private privileges under neoliberal capitalism, movements in the Global South have begun to reinterpret the human rights canon. Cosmopolitan notions of human rights have spread from the Global South only to face parochial resistance from postmodern intellectuals and neoliberal power structures in the Global North. In advancing a vision of “cosmopolitanism from below” as an antidote to neoliberalism, these alliances have articulated their demands in terms of economic and social rights. In the process, they have ruptured the connection - crucial to US hegemony from the late 1940s through the early 1970s - between …

Contestatory Performative Acts In Transnational Political Meetings, Lane
Contestatory Performative Acts In Transnational Political Meetings, Lane
Societies Without Borders
Young people are often more eager to use creative and artistic potential when acting politically. The article focuses on moments where contestatory performative acts take place in three different transnational political meetings. With these three examples it is shown how these moments of disruption and disorder - when something unexpected captures the core of the political gathering - are crucial elements for deep democracy. In such moments where the political speeches and the practices of the meeting do not match, young political actors are in a crucial role to initiate contestatory performative, and often carnivalesque, acts to execute the issue. …
Cultural Hybridity: Self-Monitoring And Cultural Frame Switching In Third Culture Kids, Ingmar Gorman
Cultural Hybridity: Self-Monitoring And Cultural Frame Switching In Third Culture Kids, Ingmar Gorman
Theses & ETDs
The first study sought to examine differences between individuals who spent their youth traveling between multiple countries and those who have not had such experiences. Self-monitoring was explored in light of the reported tendency for such traveled individuals to adapt well to foreign cultures. A 62 item survey consisted of five sections. These were: quantitative assessments of international experiences, a Third Culture Kid (TCK) Questionnaire, a Self-Monitoring Scale, an Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale and a Social Desirability Scale. It was hypothesized that TCKs would score significantly higher than non-TCKs on the Self-Monitoring Scale. Despite no statistically significant differences being found between …
