Where Is 'Community' In Community Based Forestry?, Courtney G. Flint, A. E. Luloff, James C. Finley
Where Is 'Community' In Community Based Forestry?, Courtney G. Flint, A. E. Luloff, James C. Finley
Sociology, Social Work and Anthropology Faculty Publications
Community-based forestry and community-based natural resource management have become increasingly common terms in both the scientific and popular press. However, as with so many other concepts currently in vogue, rarely do studies invoking them incorporate either a grounded theoretical understanding or practical inclusion of the central term: community. Community emerges through communication and interaction among people who care about each other and the place they live. In its purest form, community is marked by its multiple and often conflicting perspectives. This article draws upon recent research experience with the Ford Foundation's community-based forestry initiative to illustrate the importance of solidly …

Message In A Bottle: Lyrical Laments And Emotional Expression In Mandopop, Marc L. Moskowitz
Message In A Bottle: Lyrical Laments And Emotional Expression In Mandopop, Marc L. Moskowitz
Faculty Publications
This article explores the ubiquitous themes of loneliness, isolation and anomie in Mandopop (Mandarin Chinese language pop music). This is not to imply that people in the PRC and Taiwan are lonelier than people from other countries but, rather, that being human they experience these emotions. What is distinctive here is that Mandopop becomes a primary conduit to express feelings that are sanctioned in daily speech. The article addresses these concerns and uses in-depth interviews in Shanghai and Taipei to find out why Mandopop's themes of loneliness and isolation are so resonant to its fans.

La Cultura En Disputa: Pintura Figurativa E Identidad Étnica Entre Los Ishir (Alto Paraguay), Ana Maria Spadafora, Luisina Morano
Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America
Desde mediados del Siglo XX, los ishir del Gran Chaco han sufrido transformaciones económicas, políticas e ideológicas que derivaron en una substitución de pautas y prácticas de comportamiento y pusieron en disputa el valor y el significado de la cultura en el nuevo contexto. Esta discusión se manifiesta—como en muchos otros casos etnográficos—en una marcada fractura generacional entre padres que vivieron la vida montaraz e hijos cuya crianza citadina los ubica en un umbral lejano a la experiencia del monte y en un contexto interétnico ajeno a los valores y motivaciones culturales de los ancianos. Sobre la base de nuestra …

Social Networks And Cultivated Plants: Exchange Of Planting Materials And Knowledge, Joana Cabral De Oliveira
Social Networks And Cultivated Plants: Exchange Of Planting Materials And Knowledge, Joana Cabral De Oliveira
Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America
Este artigo discute a dinâmica de trocas e importação de plantas cultivadas feitas pelos Wajãpi, grupo indígena que vive nas bacias dos rios Amaparí e Jarí na Amazônia brasileira. A história dos Wajãpi é permeada por intensas relações de trocas entre subgrupos Wajãpi, com outros grupos indígenas e, mais recentemente, com não-índios, sendo as espécies cultivadas um objeto de vivo interesse nessas relações. Parto de dados sobre os sistemas de classificação nativos das plantas cultivadas para reconstruir a dinâmica e os padrões de relações sociais internas a esse grupo, bem como suas alteridades. Procuro desvendar assim, uma intricad rede de …

Interculturality And The Indigenization Of Modernity: A View From Amazonian Ecuador, Norman E. Whitten Jr
Interculturality And The Indigenization Of Modernity: A View From Amazonian Ecuador, Norman E. Whitten Jr
Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America
After introducing the history and topography of the "forest of Canelos," I turn to the central theme of this essay, "the indigenization of modernity." I next illustrate pervasive mythic cosmology to orient the reader to Canelos Quichua Amazonian perspectives on cultural topography. The relationships that obtain in language, history and ecology between the "lowlands" and the 'highlands" address the subject of ethnogenesis in indigenous thought and in written historical portrayal. Bulding toward an indigenous structure of conjuncture, I treat "epistemic distortion" in various academic sectors and attept to counter or deflect what I take to be such distortions. In so …
Cannibals, Amazons, And Social Reproduction In Amazonia, Astrid Steverlynck
Cannibals, Amazons, And Social Reproduction In Amazonia, Astrid Steverlynck
Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America
This paper analyzes Amerindian representations of Amazon-like women and cannibalism in the context of ideas about the processes of creation. While cannibalism focuses on the socialization of death through male agency and control int he context of relationships with external others, the myths about Amaon-like women focus on the social control of sexuality and female creativity (pregnancy and birth) through the establishment of male-female cooperation. Both discourses rely on the intrinsic qualities of male and female creativity that constitute the elementary structure of Amerindian cosmology. they explore the two most fundamental moments in the chain of creative processes that constitute …
