Time Is Of The Essence: Social Theory Of Time And Its Implications For Lis Research, Elizabeth Davies, Pamela J. Mckenzie Jan 2002

Time Is Of The Essence: Social Theory Of Time And Its Implications For Lis Research, Elizabeth Davies, Pamela J. Mckenzie

FIMS Presentations

Abstract: “Time,” like “information,” is a concept that has received a great deal of attention in some disciplines and is ignored or taken for granted in others. Traditional studies of information seeking have focussed on spatial issues – primarily, locating/ location of sources – to the neglect of temporal issues. This paper proposes that the social constructivist theoretical paradigm recently adopted by LIS researchers demands recognition of social time; that is, not absolute time, but another type of meaning constructed between people through their interactions. Attending to social concepts of time can have important implications for research into organizational and …


Seven Aboriginal Marriage Systems And Their Correlates, Ian Keen Jan 2002

Seven Aboriginal Marriage Systems And Their Correlates, Ian Keen

Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)

This paper outlines patterns of kin classi® cation and marriage in seven regions of Australia. It considers the implications of differences in those patterns for such features of economy and society as levels of polygyny, the structure and dynamics of country groups, the form of exchange networks and, very brie ̄ y, cosmologies and the roles of religious leaders. The analysis demonstrates certain associations between modes of kin classi® cation and organisational forms such as moieties. Finally, the paper draws conclusions about the environmental and institutional conditions for differences in `levels’ of polygynous marriage, as well as their political and …
