Blood Culture And The Problem Of Decadence, Jeffrey P. Cain
Blood Culture And The Problem Of Decadence, Jeffrey P. Cain
English Faculty Publications
This paper examines the commodification of hunting practices via the deterritorializing function of capitalism described by Deleuze and Guattari. It also studies counter trends-- predicted by or consistent with Deleuzean theory--that indicate a subtending authenticity displayed by certain hunting practices apparently resistant to commercial exploitation. "Blood culture" is my term for inauthentic hunting activity--a distinction drawn directly by Deleuze in his televised interviews with Claire Parnet. Aspects of "becoming-animal" and other transversal and cross-disciplinary flows of thought are also of course in play. As in some of my former work, I again argue for a Deleuzean cultural mechanics of the …
Illegal Alien? The Immigration Case Of Mohawk Ironworker Paul K. Diabo, Gerald F. Reid
Illegal Alien? The Immigration Case Of Mohawk Ironworker Paul K. Diabo, Gerald F. Reid
Sociology Faculty Publications
In March of 1927 Paul K. Diabo, a thirty-six-year-old Mohawk ironworker from Kahnawake (Mohawk Nation Territory), Quebec, appeared before Judge Oliver B.

As a member of the Rotinonhsionni (Iroquois) Confederacy, Diabo contended that he had a right to cross the international border without interference and restriction—a right, he argued, that had been recognized by the Jay Treaty of 1794. Diabo’s …

Local Merchants And The Regional Economy Of The Connecticut River Valley, Gerald F. Reid
Local Merchants And The Regional Economy Of The Connecticut River Valley, Gerald F. Reid
Sociology Faculty Publications
This paper focuses on valley/hill town interactions and regional economic processes in the upper Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Merchants, those individuals involved in the trading and movement of commodities, are an especially useful point of departure for investigating such concerns because they operated in the economic space between communities, towns, and regions. Attention to their activities is likely to tell us a good deal about economic interaction across space and" over long distances in early America and, specifically, about economic interactions between valley towns and hill towns in the Connecticut River …
