    Abstract: "Moving away from state categorizations on irregular migration, this Research Handbook critically examines processes and dynamics that generate and reproduce irregularity, and discusses who may count as an irregular migrant. Acknowledging that irregular migration is not just a South-North issue, chapters investigate the many different pathways into irregularity, demonstrating the benefits of understanding dynamics behind irregular migration over statistics. Organised into six thematic parts covering key issues such as approaches and perspectives for research, informal labour and the challenges faced by migrant families, global contributors from a variety of disciplines provide an expert review of geographical and historical paths into irregular migration. Offering their background knowledge and highlighting tools to better understand how irregular migration is linked to geopolitics and migration policies, the Research Handbook on Irregular Migration guides readers through the complex issues facing migrants worldwide. Written in a comprehensive yet accessible style, this Research Handbook will be an excellent resource for undergraduate and graduate students as well researchers and academics interested in migration, policy, law, security, border crossing, informal labour, crime and civil support to migrants"--

    Abstract: "Understanding Society and Knowledge proposes that knowledge, rather than nature, violence, or power, provides the basis of and driving force behind human action in modern society. It demonstrates how the legal containment of knowledge enables the transformation of the knowledge society into knowledge capitalism. Providing an overview of the history of knowledge societies, Nico Stehr analyses the concept of knowledge as well as the nature of post-industrial societies. Chapters examine the genealogy of social scientific theories of modern society; the role of knowledge as a capacity to act or as an intersubjective resource; and recent changes in the structure of the material economy. The book concludes by discussing the political challenges of the knowledge society, highlighting the ways in which discoveries in modern knowledge and subsequent political responses continue to generate controversies. This illuminating book will be an essential resource for students and scholars of economics, political science, sociology and sociological theory, as well as science and technology studies"--

    Abstract: "Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Offering a new theoretical framework for understanding gentrification and displacement, this timely Research Agenda focuses on resistance as the central research area in this subject field. Arguing that the future of gentrification research should focus on accomplishing the end of gentrification, chapters provide practical organizing and policy strategies using international case studies which are rooted in community-based research. Encouraging researchers to find inspiration in new methods, sites and questions for exploring resistance, this Research Agenda seeks to empower communities and cities to reclaim urban life and city space for people by examining key issues such as housing insecurity and lived reality versus policy and practice. Graduate students and researchers of geography, urban planning and urban sociology will find the use of case studies informative and thought-provoking. The suggested practical strategies will also be beneficial for urban planners and policymakers to fight displacement and slow gentrification"--

    Abstract: "Written in a comprehensive yet accessible style, Urban Violence, Resilience and Security investigates the diverse nature of urban violence within Latin America, Asia and Africa. It further analyzes how regular and irregular governing mechanisms can provide human security, despite the presence of chronic violence. The empirically rich and conceptually grounded contributions of established and emerging scholars evaluate the current state and future trajectory of urban development. They also question common explanations of the drivers of violence in urban areas and also provide measured recommendations for improved policy and future governance. Chapters thoroughly examine the opportunities and hazards of focusing on resilience as the only method to improve security and identify governance and policy practices that can move beyond the rhetoric of resilience to evaluate diverse approaches to attaining human security in urban areas of the Global South. This invigorating book will be an excellent resource for academic researchers interested in urban dynamics in the Global South as well as scholars embarking on geography, human security, political science and policy studies. Based on a set of original case studies, policymakers will also benefit from the questions and challenges to the conventional approaches to urban planning and governance that it raises"--

    Keywords: Urban policy ; Public welfare ; Public welfare ; Social policy ; Urban policy ; Aufsatzsammlung ; Aufsatzsammlung ; Stadt ; Sozialpolitik
    Abstract: "The importance of subnational welfare measures, and their complex embeddedness in wider multilevel governance systems, has often been underplayed in both urban studies and social policy analysis. This Handbook gives readers the analytical tools to understand urban social policies in context and bridges the gap in research. It provides a novel perspective of social policy analysis, answering the common debates such as: what is the role of local institutions in welfare provisions? Do they exert an influence beyond their jurisdiction? What difference can we trace among different types of locales (e.g. urban vs. rural)? How does the role of cities change in different national regulatory systems? Chapters disentangle the interplay between jurisdictions, politics, policy instruments and contexts in the spatial construction of social policies. Thanks to the impressive selection of contributors, the volume discusses urban social policies with broad geographical coverage including cases from Europe, North America, South America and Asia, and provides cursory references to the COVID-19 pandemic in different policy fields. This book will be of interest to a broad range of students in different fields from welfare to urban studies, as well as those interested in multilevel governance and policy analysis. Scholars interested in comparative social policy, but also in social innovation, public administration and political science, will also find this book a good companion"--

    Abstract: "This innovative Handbook sets out a conceptual and analytical framework for the critical appraisal of migration governance. Global and interdisciplinary in scope, the chapters are organised across six key themes: conceptual debates; categorisations of migration; governance regimes; processes; spaces of migration governance; and mobilisations around it. Leading international contributors critically assess categorisations and conceptualisations of migration to address theoretical concerns including transnationalism and de-colonisation, climate change, development, humanitarianism, bordering, technologies and the role of time. They closely examine practices of migration governance and politics, and their effects, across diverse spaces, processes and forms of mobilisation. They draw on up-to-date examples from across the globe in order to examine how migrants, whether forced or voluntary, are governed. Reviewing the latest developments in migration governance research through empirically rich and conceptually concise appraisals, the Handbook problematises orthodox perspectives and discusses how a critical reading can add to our understanding of the governance and politics of migration. This Handbook is an invaluable resource for scholars and students of migration, human rights and public policy. Its interdisciplinary approach and wide range of empirical examples will also be useful for policy makers in these fields"--

    Abstract: "This original book examines the experiences cities and urban areas have had with two principal concerns that confront them today: sustainability and competitiveness. Focusing on major cities in East Asia, North America, and Western Europe, Towards a Competitive, Sustainable Modern City illuminates the ways in which cities differ not only in their course and stages of development, but in the nature of their economies and their administrative structures. Featuring a wide-ranging set of contributions from top researchers, this book discusses and analyzes the issues that different cities face, such as social cohesion, tolerance and cultural diversity, and how this will determine their developmental trajectories through the coming decade. These issues are explored in relation to contemporary topics including the growing economy of robotics, the rising importance and use of artificial intelligence and the information and communications economy. Towards a Competitive, Sustainable Modern City will be an invaluable read for scholars and professors in urban economics and urban studies more broadly, particularly those who are focusing on the importance of sustainability in both areas. Its stimulating, yet accessible, approach to the topic and key case studies will also greatly benefit urban planners and economic policy makers looking to improve contemporary cities"--

    Abstract: "Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Offering a unique collection of established and emerging perspectives on event management, this Research Agenda investigates contemporary themes and innovative methodologies. 10 chapters cover core topics in the current academic debate, exploring the development of event management from a management-oriented field into a multidisciplinary research area. Organised into three parts, the Research Agenda contains international contributions from academics across tourism, geography, management, psychology and sociology fields. Initially tackling events in society, the book moves on to look specifically at the consumer, and finally examines the event organization. Chapters recommend the integration of events in geographical and political contexts, suggesting research agendas for the future that focus on the spectator, the participant and, ultimately, the consumer. Critical reading for management and tourism scholars, this book offers key insights to developing topics in the field. Event practitioners and policy makers will also greatly benefit from reading this"--

    Abstract: The rapid pace of technological change and globalization of products, competition and services have conspired to place a new premium on innovation for firms across the world. Although many variables influence creativity and innovation, the effective leadership of creative teams has proved especially important. This timely Handbook presents the state of the art for what leaders must do to lead creative teams and how they should do it. Handbook of Research on Leadership and Creativity is divided into three major sections. The first section on leadership functions identifies key activities that must be executed by leaders if creative efforts are to prove successful. The next section explains creative leadership using available theoretical models, examining the effects of leader behaviors on follower creativity. The final section investigates specific domains where organizations seek creativity. It covers the creative domains of research and development as well as military and academia, which have not traditionally been viewed as domains where creative leadership is critical. This comprehensive Handbook makes a significant contribution to the literature on creativity and innovation and will be welcomed as an accessible yet authoritative text by students, teachers and researchers alike

    Abstract: While recent studies have highlighted the phenomenon and risks of increased inequalities between the top and the bottom of society, little research has so far been carried out on trends relating to the median income range that generally represents the middle class. This volume examines the following questions: what are the main transformations in the world of work over the last 20 years in terms of the labour market, social dialogue and conditions of work, wages and incomes that may have affected the middle class? How has the middle class been altered by the financial and economic crisis? What are the long-term trends for the middle class in Europe? This volume also investigates the potential risks and effects of the reshuffling, or even weakening, of the middle class. On the social side, it explores the ramifications of further retrenchment of the European Social Model, which to a great extent has traditionally been funded by the middle class. On the economic side, the book investigates whether this process - especially from the perspective of consumption and human capital - is endangering the long-term sustainability of the current economic model. While presenting evidence of a definite erosion of the middle class, this book assesses the specific situation in each individual EU member state on the basis of detailed statistics and case studies of professional categories that traditionally represent the middle class. This book issues a timely warning about the latest trends and prospects for the middle class in Europe. On this basis, it presents policy considerations and options that will be useful to policy-makers for ensuring the future of the middle class in Europe. Scholars and researchers of European studies and social policy, especially from a sustainability perspective, will find this volume to be an invaluable reference

    Abstract: At a time when remittances are widely recognised as of growing importance for development in many countries, John Connell and Richard Brown present this comprehensive overview of the role of remittances in economic and social development. They investigate various topics including reflections on methodology, the motives and determinants of remittances, their socio-economic impacts, the particular role of community organisations and social remittances, and the broad social and cultural impacts of remittances. They pay special attention to small island and Central Asian states, where remittances are of particular significance and explore the recent historical evolution of remittances and the policy implications in both sending and receiving countries

    Abstract: This authoritative and in-depth collection presents seminal papers from leading academics in the field of organisation and bureaucracy. It encompasses sections on organisational boundaries, neo-Schumpeterian theories, hierarchy and international organisation, organisational culture and behaviour, power politics and authority, as well as organisational institutions and practices. Professor Jackson has chosen works which have shaped the views of how the economics of organisation and bureaucracy are viewed today and has included papers from conflicting ends of the spectrum to illustrate the fluid and evolving nature of the subject. This indispensable volume, with an original introduction by the editor, will be of immense value to students, scholars and practitioners interested in this topical and relevant field

    Abstract: 'The economic importance of social interactions not mediated by the market has long been recognized. However, it is only the emergence of network analysis that has supplied a useful method of study. The editors have performed a signal service by their anthology of important articles. They have covered all the major studies and represented well the rapid emergence of a new and important field, to which they have been among the most significant contributors.'--Kenneth Arrow, Stanford University, US. This comprehensive two-volume set brings together important contributions providing fundamental economic analyses of social networks and the central roles they play in many facets of our lives. The first volume consists of classic articles that model network formation and games on networks, as well as those on the identification of peer effects from an econometric viewpoint. The second volume provides empirical analyses of network effects on labor, education, development, crime and industrial organization, as well as some laboratory and field experiments. This set of indispensable papers, with an original introduction by the editors, will prove an essential tool to researchers, scholars and practitioners involved in this field

    Keywords: French language--Dictionaries--Teda ; Teda (African people) ; Tibbu (African people)
    Abstract: The documents in the Teda collection, all of them in English, cover a wide variety of cultural, historical and ecological information, circa 1930s to 1980s. The basic sources to consult are two documents translated from French and German to English for HRAF. One is the work of Jean Chapelle, a Colonel in the French army who, arriving at the inception of the final French occupation in early 1930s, worked among the Teda of Tibesti for twenty-five years. The other is by Andreas Kronenberg, a German-speaking professional anthropologist, who conducted fieldwork in the same area in 1953-1954. Together, these documents provide comprehensive information on Teda culture, history, environment, settlement pattern, clan system, material culture, and religious life. The remaining documents compliment these classic ethnographic accounts with additional information. One of these documents provides a general description of Teda culture and society based on fieldwork both in Tibesti and two other locations not covered by previous researchers. A second document is an ethnographic dictionary with covers numerous small but often unique bits of information on a wide range of topics. The remaining last document is a journal article discussing how the Teda came to conquer the Chadian State by establishing dominance in central government in the later 1970s and early 1980s

    Abstract: The Fellahin collection covers historical, cultural and economic information mostly from the 1910s-1970s, with some dating back to the first half of the nineteenth century. Three books in the collection stand out as the basic sources on the Fellahin. The first is a book by Ammar, a native Fellahin scholar which analyzes the social and psychological aspects of education in Silwa, a Fellahin village in Aswan Province where the author grew up. The second is a detailed ethnographic account of the Upper Egyptian Fellahin as observed by a British anthropologist, Blackman, in 1920-1926. The third is a study of ethos and psychology in Lower and Middle Egypt by a Syrian Catholic priest, Ayrout, who lived among the Fellahin in Lowe and Middle Egypt in early 1930s. Together, these three sources cover a wide variety of themes including family life, community organization, class divisions, economic activities, trade, religious practices, socialization and culture change, circa 1920s-1950s. The collection also includes an account by a nineteenth century German physician, Klunzinger, which provides a rich description of religious and secular festivals and ceremonies in Upper Egypt as observed in 1863-1875. This document is the oldest document in the collection, covering useful information relating to religious processions, entertainments, costumes, dances and music. Documents by Rasoul and Hopkins focus on spirits and traditional medicinal practices with particular reference to women and spirit possession, while a document by Blackman focuses on the conception of illness. Aother document, by Bush, focuses on agrarian transformations that occurred in rural Egypt beginning from 1980s when President Mubarak, reversing Nassers brand of socialism, introduced liberalization, including laws allowing for agricultural land to be sold and bought. Bushs work especially focuses on the impact of liberalization on the land rights and security of Fellahin families

    Abstract: Based on fieldwork in the Jelebu district of Negri Sembilan state in 1978-1993, Peletz discusses the effects of colonialism and global market forces on property relations, kinship system and gender issues. Raybeck described the life and cultural values of Malayan villagers near the capital of Kelantan state as observed in 1968-1993. Together, these works provide rich information relating to important socioeconomic changes that have occurred at the family and village levels since the advent of colonialism in 1830
    Abstract: The Malays collection consists of documents, all of them in English, containing cultural, historical and socio-economic information from 1904-1996. Some of the documents were compiled by British government officials who spent most of their career in different parts of Malaysia beginning from early twentieth century. Together, these documents provide the earliest first hand information on Malayan culture and society. Topics covered in these works include history of Malayan culture and society, classic Malay literature, folklores and proverbs, customary law, and daily life and salient features of Malayan custom, arts and entertainment, magic and religious practitioners, traditional architecture, and aspects of material culture. Other themes include economic activities with particular reference to fishing, hunting, trapping, and rice farming.^
    Abstract: The information from these earlier documents is further enriched by the works of anthropologists Raymond and Rosemary Firth who conducted ethnographic fieldwork among Malayan villagers in Kelantan State 1939-1940. Together, these works provide a thorough description of pre-independence Malayan culture and society, but mostly focusing on economic organization and gender roles. The collection also includes the works of two Ph.D. students who completed their dissertation research in Malaysia under the guidance of Raymond Firth. One is M. G. Swift who studied village life in Jelebu district, Negri Sembilan. The other is J. M. Gullicks work which describes dynamics of indigenous Malayan political systems since 1870. The remaining documents in the collection were compiled by two contemporary American anthropologists; Michael Peletz and Douglas Raybeck.^

    Keywords: Osage Indians ; Osage Indians--Folklore ; Osage Indians--History ; Osage Indians--Religion ; Osage Indians--Rites and ceremonies ; Osage Indians--Social life and customs ; Osage mythology ; Osage
    Abstract: The Osage collection covers a variety of cultural, historical and environmental information on different sections of Osage society from pre-contact times to late 1990s. The works of James Owen Dorsey and George A. Dorsey represent the earliest systematic attempts at understanding and reconstructing pre-reservation Osage society and culture. However, the basic and most comprehensive sources in the collection are four works by Francis La Flesche, a native Omaha who studied the Osage in 1910-1920. Topics covered in these works include marriage customs, ceremonies and rituals and child-naming rites. The collection also includes other works by the anthropologist Garrick A. Bailey who conducted ethnographic field work among the Osage in Oklahoma in the mid-1960s and 1970s. Two of these works are broad descriptions of Osage culture and history. The remaining two works, Bailey explores similarities and differences between the traditional Osage world described by La Flesche and the Osage world of later times with particular reference to religion and rituals and social organization. Also included in the collection is an article exploring ideas of justice and punishment held by various Indians and Europeans, ending with the trial of several Osage men accused by the United States of the kind of killing that the Osage had done for a century in protection of their trade and land rights

    Abstract: The Nyakyusa and Ngonde collection covers cultural, economic and historical information, circa 1875 to 1983. Most of the documents in the collection were written by the husband-wife team of Godfrey and Monica Wilson based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 1934-1938. The basic introduction to Nyakyusa society and culture is Godfrey Wilson's "An Introduction to Nyakyusa society". The information in this document is further enriched by the works of Monica Wilson which, together, provide a comprehensive first-hand account of Nyakyusa culture and society as observed in mid-1930s. Main themes covered in these works include social and economic structure of a Nyakyusa age-village, communal rituals related to burials, marriage, birth, misfortunes, etc, relationship of religion to Nyakyusa social structure, changes in generational and gender relations, and traditional land tenure systems. The collection also includes two other documents that focus on the Ngonde. These documents cover the traditional political structure of Ngonde society and aspects of socioeconomic change since 18th century. Finally, the collection also includes one essay which seeks to re-evaluate some of the key arguments in the earlier work by the Wilsons. The focus is on dynamics of kinship and chieftainship in age-villages, a uniquely Nyakyusa residence pattern in which a cohort of boys establish their own village settlement in previously uninhabited land

    Abstract: The Omaha collection covers a variety of cultural, historical and environmental information on different sections of Omaha society from pre-contact times to early 2000s. The work of Alice Fletcher, an anthropologist who lived with the Omaha for thirty years in 1875-1905, and Francis La Flesche, a native Omaha, is the basic and most comprehensive document in the collection. The collection also includes two works by a missionary/anthropologist, James Dorsey, who worked among the Omaha in 1878-1980. Together, these works provide the earliest systematic attempts at understanding and reconstructing pre-reservation Omaha society and culture. The remaining documents describe and examine more specific aspects of Omaha culture including acculturation with particular reference to women, religious life and organization of secret societies, and recent dynamics of ethnicity and identity especially among current generation Omaha peoples in Nebraska

    Abstract: The Marquesans collection covers a wide range of ethnographic data, covering a time period of from 1770 to approximately 1977. Although nearly all the documents in this collection discuss Marquesan traditional ethnography to varying degrees, probably the best general coverage will be found in Handy, and the works by Linton. Other ethnographic topics in this collection are as follows: tattooing designs, methods, and differences between southeastern and northwestern island groups in Handy; Marquesan sexual behavior in Suggs; a theoretical and comparative study of the Marquesan understanding of person, personal development, differentiation, similarities and potentials in Kirkpatrick, and a summary of major themes in the literature on Polynesian socialization in Martini and Kirkpatrick

    Abstract: The Yi Collection contains documents concerning twentieth century ethnographic fieldwork and the history of the Yi. The core ethnography is found in books by the anthropologist Lin Yaohua on Yi kinship and genealogical system and Yi society, politics, economy and religion based on fieldwork carried out in 1943. Ma and Lei wrote on Yi exorcism rituals and religion in the same period. Tseng wrote a short ethnography on Yi culture and history based on a 1941 excursion in the region. Graham provides a very brief overview of Yi culture and society. Feng looks at historical accounts of Yi in Chinese and Western records going back as early as 400 BC. The missionary Pollard, who lived in southwestern China from 1888-1915, writes about Yi material culture circa 1900. Mueggler did his fieldwork in the 1990s and writes about a past form of political organization imposed on the Yi by the Han Chinese during the Imperial and Republican periods and which is now used in Yi historical discourse to articulate an unique location and identity within contemporary Chinese society

    Abstract: The Luo collection covers cultural, historical, economic and demographic information circa 1895 to 2000. There are a number of general ethnographies on Luo culture and society as observed by professional anthropologists in late the 1920s to the mid-1930s. Specific themes covered in these works include tribes, kinship and social organization, marriage and sex restrictions, religion, life cycles and burials. These ethnographic accounts are further supplemented by the works of historian Jean Hay, discussing changes in material culture and gender relations that took place before the Second World War as a direct result of British colonial rule and the complex forces it set in motion. The collection also includes anthropological works that specifically focus on the post Second World War decade with particular emphasis on dynamics of lineage and family ties, customary law and Luo attitudes toward homicide and suicide. Other documents in the collection focus on the actual experiences of Luo men and women with urbanization and nationally designed development programs in the post-independence period (1963-2000). Specific themes covered include Luo responses to urbanization, modern education and population growth, changes in public health and nutrition, land policy, and the local effects of labor migration and global market forces; and misguided development programs. The remaining documents by Blount provide a linguistic analysis of Luo genealogical accounting, personal naming systems, and comprehensive bibliographic information of existing works on Luo culture and society, circa 1920-2000

    Keywords: Havasupai Indians ; Yuman Indians
    Abstract: The Havasupai collection covers a wide range of ethnographic data, covering a time period from approximately 1776 to 2004. Two of the major ethnographies on the traditional culture of the Havasupai are Spier and Cushing. These are supplemented by Smithson who compares modern (twentieth century) Havasupai ethnography to what it was like before European contact, and Schwartz whose culture summary, although relatively brief, covers a wide range of topics. The document by Smithson and Euler provides information on religion and mythology. Land rights and inheritance are topics discussed in Service and Martin. Other subjects of interest in this collection are: prehistory in Schwartz; political structure and leadership in Martin; diet in Bonyshek, and Martin who describes three distinct versions of Havasupai-Hualapai origins and ethnohistoric relations as suggested by Kroeber, Schwartz, and Euler and Dobyns

    Keywords: Acculturation ; Caduveo Indians ; Guana Indians ; Terena Indians
    Abstract: The Terena collection consists of several documents from English, German, and Portuguese Oberg is a study of culture change in Terena society resulting from contact and interaction with the Caduveo, the Mbayá, and Brazilian culture in general. The theme of culture change is continued in Oliveira, which attempts to record and interpret the processes of social interaction between Terena and Brazilian society with the goal of determining the operative socio-cultural mechanism affecting the more specific process of assimilation. Baldus is a study of the succession to chieftainship within a Terena group living near the city of Miranda in the southern part of the Brazilian Mato Grosso. This study also contains some incidental information on such aspects of Terena ethnography as names and naming, eschatology, conception and pregnancy, marriage regulations and arrangements, and kinship terminology and relationships. The second work included by Oliveira is a structural analysis of the Terena marriage and social stratification system

    Abstract: The Uttar Pradesh Collection covers cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1900s to mid-1980s. A majority of the included documents are village-level studies. The basic works to consult are two documents by anthropologist Edward Morris Opler and his India co-author Rudra Datt Singh. One of these works is a comparative study of the villages of Ramapur and Madhopur with particular emphasis on similarities and differences in aspects of the economy, political organization, social structure and the caste system. The other focuses on the nature of the caste-based division of labor and village life in Senapur. The information in these documents is enriched by four follow-up studies by Opler. Coverage includes the place of religion in village life, regional and inter-village socioeconomic ties, recent changes in family structure and local political economy

    Abstract: The Gond collection covers a broad range of ethnographic topics dating from approximately 1854 to 2006, with an emphasis on the Gond tribes of Bastar State. The primary document in this collection is Grigson dealing with the general ethnography of the Maria Gond, particularly the Hill and Bison Horn Maria tribal groups. Grigson's data are further supplemented by the ethnographic description of Gond cultural life in Fuchs, and in Elwin. The Grigson's, Elwin's, and Fuchs' studies, however, are limited in time depth to the early and mid-twentieth century. Other topics of ethnographic interest are: the description and analysis of the ghotul, a communal dwelling where the young people of the Gond villages live; murder and suicide among the Bison Horn Maria; genealogical studies of the Gond people in Bastar State; and sociocultural changes in Orcha village introduced by the Indian government

    Abstract: The Tsonga collection covers cultural, economic and historical information circa 1895 to 1990. The basic sources to consult are two books by the Swiss Missionary anthropologist Henri Junod who lived among the Tsonga in 1895-1909. Together, these books provide a comprehensive account of Tsonga culture and society as observed by the author and his key informants. Major themes covered include agricultural and industrial activities, literary and artistic life (with particular emphasis on language, folklore and music, and texts of songs, proverbs, riddles and folktales), and religious beliefs including concepts of nature and man, medicine and ancestor worship, magical practices, spirit possession, witchcraft and divination, and morality and taboos. The remaining documents examine specific issues relating to change and continuity including the local consequences of labor migration, dynamics of kinship, history of ethnicity and gender relations and rites of passage

    Keywords: Marshallese ; Ethnology--Marshall Islands ; Majuro (Marshall Islands) ; Bevölkerung ; Marshallinseln ; Marshallinseln ; Bevölkerung
    Abstract: The Marshallese collection consists of 15 documents, covering a wide variety of cultural and historical information, circa 1900 to 2005. The earliest descriptions of Marshallese culture and society in the collection are translations from the German originally compiled by a colonial official, two ethnologists, and a missionary. Together, these three documents provide detailed geographic and ethnographic information as observed in 1900-1909. Two documents in the collection are first-hand accounts of Marshallese village life and economic situation as observed in 1946-1947. One of these was a commissioned research by the U.S. government company which sought background cultural and economic information for planning future economic development for the Marshall Islands. The other was authored by Alexander Spoehr, a former U.S. Navy who returned to the Majuro in 1947 as a civilian to conduct ethnological work. In this work, Spoehr contrasts changes in Marshallese culture he observed with his own earlier observations while on active duty with the Navy during World War II. L. M. Carucci conducted extensive fieldwork among inhabitants of Ujelang/Enewetak Atolls on various occasions in 1976-2005. Topics covered by Carrucci include domestic violence (1990, no. 9), community life and concepts of morality (1998, no. 10), dynamics of grandparent/grandchildren relations, aspects of cosmology (1989, no. 22), and rites of passages. The remaining documents in the collection further enrich information in the above three category of works with additional themes and in-depth analyses including land tenure and inheritance rules, gender and family life, internal political dynamics and international relations, and contemporary development issues

    Abstract: With the publication of The Rise of the Creative Class by Richard Florida in 2002, the "creative city" became the new hot topic among urban policymakers, planners and economists. Florida has developed one of three path-breaking theories about the relationship between creative individuals and urban environments. The economist Åke E. Andersson and the psychologist Dean Simonton are the other members of this "creative troika". In the Handbook of Creative Cities, Florida, Andersson and Simonton appear in the same volume for the first time. The expert contributors in this timely Handbook extend their insights with a varied set of theoretical and empirical tools. The diversity of the contributions reflect the multidisciplinary nature of creative city theorizing, which encompasses urban economics, economic geography, social psychology, urban sociology, and urban planning. The stated policy implications are equally diverse, ranging from libertarian to social democratic visions of our shared creative and urban future

    Abstract: The Chagga collection consists of documents in English (including two translations from the German, and one from Swahili), covering cultural, economic and historical information circa 1880 to early 2003. The most comprehensive works are by a missionary who lived with the Chagga for more than two decades in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Together, these books provide the first systematic attempts to understand pre-colonial Chagga culture and society with particular reference to customary law, religious life, social organization, and status of elders. The collection also includes two works which provide a general description of Chagga society and various customs by a British government official and a former native chief. The remaining works are ethnographic accounts by professional anthropologists. Specific themes covered include socialization and child-rearing practices, change and continuity in customary laws and aspects of divination

    Abstract: The Nyakyusa and Ngonde collection covers cultural, economic and historical information, circa 1875 to 1983. Most of the documents in the collection were written by the husband-wife team of Godfrey and Monica Wilson based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 1934-1938. The basic introduction to Nyakyusa society and culture is Godfrey Wilson's "An Introduction to Nyakyusa society". The information in this document is further enriched by the works of Monica Wilson which, together, provide a comprehensive first-hand account of Nyakyusa culture and society as observed in mid-1930s. Main themes covered in these works include social and economic structure of a Nyakyusa age-village, communal rituals related to burials, marriage, birth, misfortunes, etc, relationship of religion to Nyakyusa social structure, changes in generational and gender relations, and traditional land tenure systems. The collection also includes two other documents that focus on the Ngonde. These documents cover the traditional political structure of Ngonde society and aspects of socioeconomic change since 18th century. Finally, the collection also includes one essay which seeks to re-evaluate some of the key arguments in the earlier work by the Wilsons. The focus is on dynamics of kinship and chieftainship in age-villages, a uniquely Nyakyusa residence pattern in which a cohort of boys establish their own village settlement in previously uninhabited land

    Abstract: The documents in the Teda collection, all of them in English, cover a wide variety of cultural, historical and ecological information, circa 1930s to 1980s. The basic sources to consult are two documents translated from French and German to English for HRAF. One is the work of Jean Chapelle, a Colonel in the French army who, arriving at the inception of the final French occupation in early 1930s, worked among the Teda of Tibesti for twenty-five years. The other is by Andreas Kronenberg, a German-speaking professional anthropologist, who conducted fieldwork in the same area in 1953-1954. Together, these documents provide comprehensive information on Teda culture, history, environment, settlement pattern, clan system, material culture, and religious life. The remaining documents compliment these classic ethnographic accounts with additional information. One of these documents provides a general description of Teda culture and society based on fieldwork both in Tibesti and two other locations not covered by previous researchers. A second document is an ethnographic dictionary with covers numerous small but often unique bits of information on a wide range of topics. The remaining last document is a journal article discussing how the Teda came to conquer the Chadian State by establishing dominance in central government in the later 1970s and early 1980s

    Abstract: The Tsonga collection covers cultural, economic and historical information circa 1895 to 1990. The basic sources to consult are two books by the Swiss Missionary anthropologist Henri Junod who lived among the Tsonga in 1895-1909. Together, these books provide a comprehensive account of Tsonga culture and society as observed by the author and his key informants. Major themes covered include agricultural and industrial activities, literary and artistic life (with particular emphasis on language, folklore and music, and texts of songs, proverbs, riddles and folktales), and religious beliefs including concepts of nature and man, medicine and ancestor worship, magical practices, spirit possession, witchcraft and divination, and morality and taboos. The remaining documents examine specific issues relating to change and continuity including the local consequences of labor migration, dynamics of kinship, history of ethnicity and gender relations and rites of passage

    Abstract: The Terena collection consists of several documents from English, German, and Portuguese Oberg is a study of culture change in Terena society resulting from contact and interaction with the Caduveo, the Mbayá, and Brazilian culture in general. The theme of culture change is continued in Oliveira, which attempts to record and interpret the processes of social interaction between Terena and Brazilian society with the goal of determining the operative socio-cultural mechanism affecting the more specific process of assimilation. Baldus is a study of the succession to chieftainship within a Terena group living near the city of Miranda in the southern part of the Brazilian Mato Grosso. This study also contains some incidental information on such aspects of Terena ethnography as names and naming, eschatology, conception and pregnancy, marriage regulations and arrangements, and kinship terminology and relationships. The second work included by Oliveira is a structural analysis of the Terena marriage and social stratification system

    Keywords: Havasupai Indians ; Yuman Indians ; Havasupai ; Havasupai
    Abstract: The Havasupai collection covers a wide range of ethnographic data, covering a time period from approximately 1776 to 2004. Two of the major ethnographies on the traditional culture of the Havasupai are Spier and Cushing. These are supplemented by Smithson who compares modern (twentieth century) Havasupai ethnography to what it was like before European contact, and Schwartz whose culture summary, although relatively brief, covers a wide range of topics. The document by Smithson and Euler provides information on religion and mythology. Land rights and inheritance are topics discussed in Service and Martin. Other subjects of interest in this collection are: prehistory in Schwartz; political structure and leadership in Martin; diet in Bonyshek, and Martin who describes three distinct versions of Havasupai-Hualapai origins and ethnohistoric relations as suggested by Kroeber, Schwartz, and Euler and Dobyns

    Abstract: The Nuu-Chah-Nulth collection covers a period from about 1780 to 1990. The various works making up this collection are roughly divided between the northern, central, and southern Nuu-Chah-Nulth tribes of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, and the Makah, a subgroup living on the Olympic Peninsula at Neah Bay, Washington State in the United States. Major studies in this collection are: Drucker, Colson, Swan, Koppert, Sapir and Swadesh, Arima and Dewhirst, and Reniker and Gunther. Other ethnographic topics discussed in this collection are: the girl's puberty ceremony and potlatch in Sapir; Makah games in Dorsey; an analysis of the Nuu-Chah-Nulth wolf ritual in Ernst; changing marriage patterns over a one hundred year period (1860-1960), in Gunther, and an account of a modern (ca.1970s) Nuku-Chah-Nulth community (Vancouver Island) in historical perspective in Kenyon

    Abstract: The Yi Collection contains documents concerning twentieth century ethnographic fieldwork and the history of the Yi. The core ethnography is found in books by the anthropologist Lin Yaohua on Yi kinship and genealogical system and Yi society, politics, economy and religion based on fieldwork carried out in 1943. Ma and Lei wrote on Yi exorcism rituals and religion in the same period. Tseng wrote a short ethnography on Yi culture and history based on a 1941 excursion in the region. Graham provides a very brief overview of Yi culture and society. Feng looks at historical accounts of Yi in Chinese and Western records going back as early as 400 BC. The missionary Pollard, who lived in southwestern China from 1888-1915, writes about Yi material culture circa 1900. Mueggler did his fieldwork in the 1990s and writes about a past form of political organization imposed on the Yi by the Han Chinese during the Imperial and Republican periods and which is now used in Yi historical discourse to articulate an unique location and identity within contemporary Chinese society

    Abstract: The Marquesans collection covers a wide range of ethnographic data, covering a time period of from 1770 to approximately 1977. Although nearly all the documents in this collection discuss Marquesan traditional ethnography to varying degrees, probably the best general coverage will be found in Handy, and the works by Linton. Other ethnographic topics in this collection are as follows: tattooing designs, methods, and differences between southeastern and northwestern island groups in Handy; Marquesan sexual behavior in Suggs; a theoretical and comparative study of the Marquesan understanding of person, personal development, differentiation, similarities and potentials in Kirkpatrick, and a summary of major themes in the literature on Polynesian socialization in Martini and Kirkpatrick

Swift - 1965 , The Malays collection consists of documents, all of them in English, containing cultural, historical and socio-economic information from 1904-1996. Some of the documents were compiled by British government officials who spent most of their career in different parts of Malaysia beginning from early twentieth century. Together, these documents provide the earliest first hand information on Malayan culture and society. Topics covered in these works include history of Malayan culture and society, classic Malay literature, folklores and proverbs, customary law, and daily life and salient features of Malayan custom, arts and entertainment, magic and religious practitioners, traditional architecture, and aspects of material culture. Other themes include economic activities with particular reference to fishing, hunting, trapping, and rice farming. , The information from these earlier documents is further enriched by the works of anthropologists Raymond and Rosemary Firth who conducted ethnographic fieldwork among Malayan villagers in Kelantan State 1939-1940. Together, these works provide a thorough description of pre-independence Malayan culture and society, but mostly focusing on economic organization and gender roles. The collection also includes the works of two Ph.D. students who completed their dissertation research in Malaysia under the guidance of Raymond Firth. One is M. G. Swift who studied village life in Jelebu district, Negri Sembilan. The other is J. M. Gullick's work which describes dynamics of indigenous Malayan political systems since 1870. The remaining documents in the collection were compiled by two contemporary American anthropologists, Michael Peletz and Douglas Raybeck. , Based on fieldwork in the Jelebu district of Negri Sembilan state in 1978-1993, Peletz discusses the effects of colonialism and global market forces on property relations, kinship system and gender issues. Raybeck described the life and cultural values of Malayan villagers near the capital of Kelantan state as observed in 1968-1993. Together, these works provide rich information relating to important socioeconomic changes that have occurred at the family and village levels since the advent of colonialism in 1830

    Abstract: The Uttar Pradesh Collection covers cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1900s to mid-1980s. A majority of the included documents are village-level studies. The basic works to consult are two documents by anthropologist Edward Morris Opler and his India co-author Rudra Datt Singh. One of these works is a comparative study of the villages of Ramapur and Madhopur with particular emphasis on similarities and differences in aspects of the economy, political organization, social structure and the caste system. The other focuses on the nature of the caste-based division of labor and village life in Senapur. The information in these documents is enriched by four follow-up studies by Opler. Coverage includes the place of religion in village life, regional and inter-village socioeconomic ties, recent changes in family structure and local political economy

    Abstract: The Gond collection covers a broad range of ethnographic topics dating from approximately 1854 to 2006, with an emphasis on the Gond tribes of Bastar State. The primary document in this collection is Grigson dealing with the general ethnography of the Maria Gond, particularly the Hill and Bison Horn Maria tribal groups. Grigson's data are further supplemented by the ethnographic description of Gond cultural life in Fuchs, and in Elwin. The Grigson's, Elwin's, and Fuchs' studies, however, are limited in time depth to the early and mid-twentieth century. Other topics of ethnographic interest are: the description and analysis of the ghotul, a communal dwelling where the young people of the Gond villages live; murder and suicide among the Bison Horn Maria; genealogical studies of the Gond people in Bastar State; and sociocultural changes in Orcha village introduced by the Indian government

    Abstract: The Osage collection covers a variety of cultural, historical and environmental information on different sections of Osage society from pre-contact times to late 1990s. The works of James Owen Dorsey and George A. Dorsey represent the earliest systematic attempts at understanding and reconstructing pre-reservation Osage society and culture. However, the basic and most comprehensive sources in the collection are four works by Francis La Flesche, a native Omaha who studied the Osage in 1910-1920. Topics covered in these works include marriage customs, ceremonies and rituals and child-naming rites. The collection also includes other works by the anthropologist Garrick A. Bailey who conducted ethnographic field work among the Osage in Oklahoma in the mid-1960s and 1970s. Two of these works are broad descriptions of Osage culture and history. The remaining two works, Bailey explores similarities and differences between the traditional Osage world described by La Flesche and the Osage world of later times with particular reference to religion and rituals and social organization. Also included in the collection is an article exploring ideas of justice and punishment held by various Indians and Europeans, ending with the trial of several Osage men accused by the United States of the kind of killing that the Osage had done for a century in protection of their trade and land rights

    Abstract: The Fellahin collection covers historical, cultural and economic information mostly from the 1910s-1970s, with some dating back to the first half of the nineteenth century. Three books in the collection stand out as the basic sources on the Fellahin. The first is a book by Ammar, a native Fellahin scholar which analyzes the social and psychological aspects of education in Silwa, a Fellahin village in Aswan Province where the author grew up. The second is a detailed ethnographic account of the Upper Egyptian Fellahin as observed by a British anthropologist, Blackman, in 1920-1926. The third is a study of ethos and psychology in Lower and Middle Egypt by a Syrian Catholic priest, Ayrout, who lived among the Fellahin in Lowe and Middle Egypt in early 1930s. Together, these three sources cover a wide variety of themes including family life, community organization, class divisions, economic activities, trade, religious practices, socialization and culture change, circa 1920s-1950s. The collection also includes an account by a nineteenth century German physician, Klunzinger, which provides a rich description of religious and secular festivals and ceremonies in Upper Egypt as observed in 1863-1875. This document is the oldest document in the collection, covering useful information relating to religious processions, entertainments, costumes, dances and music. Documents by Rasoul and Hopkins focus on spirits and traditional medicinal practices with particular reference to women and spirit possession, while a document by Blackman focuses on the conception of illness. Aother document, by Bush, focuses on agrarian transformations that occurred in rural Egypt beginning from 1980s when President Mubarak, reversing Nasser's brand of socialism, introduced liberalization, including laws allowing for agricultural land to be sold and bought. Bush's work especially focuses on the impact of liberalization on the land rights and security of Fellahin families

    Abstract: The O'odham collection consists of sixteen English language documents covering the Spanish period from 1687 to 1821; the Mexican period from 1821 to 1848, the American period from 1848 to approximately 1981, and interspersed, on occasion, with bits of information on the prehistory of the general region. Although many historians and anthropologists have treated the Pima and Papago as two separate peoples, by the early twenty-first century, the cultural similarity between the two, has led us to combine them in this collection under the new designation "O'odham". Cultural history and general ethnography are the major topics in many of the documents in this collection, notably by: Underhill; Fontana; Ezell; Bahr; and the history of Christianity among the Pima-Papago in Bahr. Other ethnographic topics discussed in this collection are: the life history of a Papago woman in Underhill; regional geography in Castetter; and Fontana; cultural adaptation in Fontana, Hackenberg, and Castetter. Personalilty development and child-rearing practices are major topics of discussion in Joseph. Finally, shamanism, theories of disease, and curing are all described in Bahr, while food and diet in comparison to disease factors, form a significant topic of discussion in Fazzino

    Keywords: Hutu (African people)--Tanzania--Ethnic identity ; Political refugees--Burundi ; Political refugees--Tanzania ; Rundi (African people)
    Abstract: The Burundi collection provides historical, cultural and economic information on Burundi culture and society, circa 1907-1998. Documents that discuss the colonial period cover important themes including physical geography and material culture, ethnicity and social structure, law and custom, and gender roles and cultural ideals. Other documents deal with political processes and important historical events in the post independence period including the politics of genocide in the Great Lakes region. This includes R. Lemarchands analysis of the genocide of Hutu by Tutsi in Burundi (1972), of Tutsi and Hutu by Hutu in Rwanda (1994) and of Hutu by Tutsi in Congo (1996-1997). Also included is a book by a professional anthropologist who lived among Burundian Hutu refugees in Tanzania. Malkki focuses on the ways the displacement of these Hutu refugees led to the creation of "essentialist" ethnic identities and the horrible violence generated both in Burundi and neighboring countries

    Keywords: Tucuna Indians
    Abstract: The Ticuna Collection documents, all of them in English, cover cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1941 to 1995. Two of these documents are produced by Curt Nimuendaju, a German anthropologist who conducted ethnographic fieldwork among the Ticuna in 1935 and 1941-1942 on behalf of University of California. The documents vary in size, and coverage. One is a larger monograph describing economic activities, aspects of material culture, personality character and social life, social organization (largely focusing on clans and moieties), art, religion and magic. The other is a brief over view of Ticuna culture originally published in the Handbook of South American Indians. Together, these works provide a well rounded first hand account of Ticuna culture and society as observed by the author. The document by Hammond, Dolman and Watkinson discusses the ways the Ticuna adaptively transformed their traditional swidden-fallow land use practices to make advantage of emerging market opportunities in timber and forest products

    Abstract: The Trumai File contains a monograph by Murphy and Quain, the only available primary ethnographic account on the Trumai. This document provides a first hand account of Trumai culture and society as observed by anthropologist Buell Quain in 1938. The document is especially comprehensive in its coverage and analyses of the Trumai personality, ethos, life cycle, and interpersonal attitudes and behavior, but less extensive on material culture and religion. The document also incorporates important ethnographic data from the work of Karl Von den Steinen who visited the Trumai in 1884

    Abstract: The Shilluk Collection covers a wide variety of cultural and historical information, circa 1900 to 1990. The earliest and most comprehensive source in the collection is the ethnographic survey by C.G. Seligman and Brenda Z. Seligman, covering political organization, kinship, family life, marriage system, religion and funeral customs as observed in 1909-1910. The collection also includes Evans-Pritchards classic essay on the divine kingship of the Shilluk, and two summary articles by professional anthropologists working with the International African Institute. Other works in the collection include brief ethnographic descriptions, articles and manuscripts that appeared in scholarly journals and records of the Anglo-Egyptian colonial administration. Topics covered in the collection include religious and medical beliefs, folklore, settlement pattern, social organization, customary laws and succession to kingship

    Keywords: Abipon Indians ; Paraguay--Description and travel--Early works to 1800
    Abstract: The Abipón ethnographic collection is a small collection. The primary work, and the one that provided the major source of data for this summary, is that of the Jesuit, Father Martin Dobrizhoffer, who lived among this group for eighteen years in the mid eighteenth century. Dobrizhoffer was a keen observer of Abipón behavior and customs and the information he recorded forms the basis of what little we know about this now extinct group. The Dobrizhoffer document deals primarily with various aspects of ethnography, covering such topics as territory occupied, historical origins, physical appearance and characteristics, religion, tribal divisions, leadership (chiefs, captains or caciques), food, clothing, language, marriage customs, games, diseases, shamans (jugglers), death and mortuary customs, fauna, and warfare. The study by Metraux is a brief summary of the history of the Abipón, their relations with the Spanish and other aboriginal groups, and of missionary activity among them. This document, abstracted from the Handbook of South American Indians (Bulletin 143, Vol.1), largely duplicates information already contained in Dobrizhoffer

    Keywords: Nambicuara Indians
    Abstract: The Nambicuara Collection documents, now all of them in English, cover cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1907 to 1987. The basic source, translated from French, is by Levi-Strauss. This work deals mainly with family and social life, but also covers religion, kinship and subsistence activities. Information from this source is further supplemented by a brief ethnographic description originally published in the Handbook of South American Indians and two other works which focus on specific themes including chieftainship and social use of kinship terms. Seven documents in the collection were written by anthropologists P. David Price and Paul L. Aspelin who conducted original ethnographic fieldwork among different Nambicuara groups in 1967-1976. Five of the documents in this group revisit Levi-Strauss's data and analysis of Nambicuara economic activities, political organization and leadership, while the remaining two focus on specific themes including socioeconomic change and government efforts at resettling several Nambicuara groups. The collection also includes a work, translated from Portuguese, by E. Roqueto-Pinto (based on fieldwork conducted in 1910s) that represents the first anthropological description of the Nambicuara and their culture. This book features extensive anthropometric and linguistic data on Nambicuara groups who lived along a newly built public road crossing through the region

    Keywords: Apache Indians--Biography ; Apache Indians--Claims ; Mescalero Indians ; Mescalero Indians--Biography ; Mescalero Indians--Religion ; Mescalero astronomy ; Mescalero philosophy ; Mescalero
    Abstract: The Mescalero Apache collection consists of all English language documents covering a time span from approximately 1540 to the late 1980s. Documents which provide a general summary of Mescalero culture history and ethnography are Opler, and the last section of Farrer's work on this group. The three studies by Basehart in this collection, also provide information on social and political organization, leadership, and subsistence patterns. Dealing with the more metaphysical concepts of Mescalero society are the works by Farrer. Farrer discusses Mescalero concepts of space, time, and sound and the way they communicate meaning and order within the culture. The second study by Farrer, describes native concepts of cosmology, ethnoastronomy, and the relationship between celestial phenomena and the environment. Various other ethnographic topics of interest in this document are: shamanism and supernatural power in Chris and Opler; mythology associated with the birth of the culture hero, Child-of-the Water; Mescalero beliefs and practices related to death, and peyote ceremonialism in Opler. Of major interest in this collection of documents is the study of the girls' puberty ceremony in Nicholas, which gives a general account of this ceremony, and is further supplemented in greater detail in Farrer

    Keywords: Toda (Indic people)
    Abstract: The Toda collection covers a variety of cultural, linguistic and historical information from 1870s to 1980s. The earliest account was compiled by William Marshall, a British colonial official who, with help from missionaries in the Nilgiri hills, visited the Toda in 1870. It provides a firsthand description of Toda villages, family system, marriage and burial customs, diet, religion and rituals. Marshalls portrait of the Toda was largely shaped by a mix of European stereotypes and phrenological inferences. The remaining documents are based on research conducted in the 1900s, 1930s, 1940s and 1980s. W. H. R. Rivers systematically covers a broad range of Toda culture as observed in 1901-1902. The works of Emeneau and Peter compliment Rivers by documenting and examining more specific aspects of Toda culture including marriage regulations and taboos, beliefs and practices associated with menstruation, language and social forms and patterns of acculturation

    Abstract: Documents in the Mam Maya Collection, all of them in English, provide first hand accounts of culture and society as observed in late 1930s and 1980s. Two of these documents are the works of anthropologist Charles Wagley who lived in the Mam Mayan town of Santiago Chimaltenango in 1937 when the influence of the Guatemalan government on indigenous communities was still very minimal. In the first work, Wagley describes economic life with particular emphasis on agricultural practices, land tenure, wage labor, and trends in consumption and economic stratification. The second work focuses on social organization and religious beliefs. Topics discussed include kinship, the expected life cycle of individuals and families, and religious organizations. This document also contains a field diary by Juan de Dios Rosales, a researcher with the Carnegie Institution who visited Santiago Chimaltenango in 1944 looking for nutritional information on indigenous Mayan diet. The collection also includes a fairly recent book by anthropologist John Watanabe who, inspired by Wagley, conducted extensive fieldwork in Santiago Chimaltenango in 1978-1988. Watanabe is mainly concerned with the interplay of identity, history, and experience in this Mam-speaking Maya community. He builds on contemporary anthropological theories on ethnicity and social change to argue that the continuity of Mam Maya's ethnic distinctiveness has to do with to specific social, economic and political processes that shaped their choices and relationships, as opposed to some enduring cultural sentiments or powerful external forces

    Keywords: Quechua Indians
    Abstract: The documents in this collection focus on a time span from 1936 to 1978, although some contain considerable historical background information as far back as the Inca occupation and the Spanish Conquest in the sixteenth century. The fundamental ethnography, by Beals, is based on fieldwork conducted in the community of Nayón in 1949. It is a study of community organization emphasizing how the growing links between the traditional and national economies on the eastern outskirts of the capital city of Quito in Pichincha Province, and ways in which the resultant forces of acculturation are affecting social organization. Other prominent themes include the daily routines of life and forms of mutual aid. Beals follows up with an argument that encroaching urbanization with its pressures on land ownership is a more potent force for social change in Nayón than the lure of cultural assimilation (mestizaje) that accompanies economic integration. In a study of what were by the late 1970s the newly (sub)urbanized eastern barrios of Quito, Salomon validates Beals' hypothesis with a fascinating look at the psychological, religious, social, and philosophical dimensions of the Yumbo dancing that is part of the Corpus Christi festival, revealing how the costumed dance/dramatic performance is a means of reaffirming collective ethnic identity and asserting ethnic pride given increasingly nationalized and westernized surroundings and individual aspirations

    Abstract: The Canelos Quichua collection consists of English language documents covering the period from about 1961 to 1976, focusing on the fieldwork of the Whittens. The major source of information on this group will be found in Sicuanga Runa. Although this monograph focuses primarily on the site of Nueva Esperanza (Nayapi Llacta) in Ecuador in order to explore the theme of the duality of power patterning in the community, it does contain a variety of information on various aspects of Canelos Quichua ethnography. Ritual structure is a study of the large-scale Ayllu ceremony held once or twice each year involving a period of from two to three weeks in initial preparation, and then its actual enactment on a final Sunday feast day. The third document, by Whitten and Whitten, is a detailed study of kinship structure and marriage among the Canelos Quichua of East-Central Ecuador

    Keywords: Ahaggar Mountains (Algeria) ; Tuaregs
    Abstract: Documents in the Tuareg Collection provide a wide variety of cultural, historical and ecological information, circa 1908 to 2004. Maurice Benhazera, a French army interpreter who visited the Ahaggar region in 1905, describes pre-colonial Tuareg culture and daily life. Henri Lhote provides the first systematic description of Taureg society by a professional ethnologist based on materials (mostly relating to political organization, social classes, marriage system, descent, childbirth and adolescent) collected in 1929-1940. Cabot L. Briggs critiques the above two earlier sources based on fieldwork conducted in 1956. Nicolaisen covers a broad range of themes in Tuareg social organization and cultural ecology as observed in 1951-1962. The remaining articles by Rasmussen explore particular themes including conflict management practices, changes relating to witchcraft and morality, dynamics of class and ethnicity, and local perceptions of health and illness

    Keywords: Kinship ; Tallensi (African people) ; Tallensi (African people)--Religion ; Talensi
    Abstract: Documents in the Tallensi Collection, all of them in English, cover cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1930 to 1994. Most are by Meyer Fortes, a leading British social anthropologist who conducted extensive fieldwork among the Tallensi in 1934-1937 and 1971. Fortes's works provide detailed first hand description and analysis of Tallensi society with particular emphasis on clans and lineages, kinship and social relations, and religious practices including divination, ancestor worship and moral life. Other documents in the collection compliment Fortess seminal works by examining other themes relating to Tallensi culture and society including food culture, communal fishing, naming custom, the judicial process, ritual festivals, education and socialization, land tenure and settlement patterns. Most of the information in these documents was collected from a locality called Tongo which Fortes described as the biggest settlement in Tallensi land

    Abstract: The Gikuyu Collection covers cultural, economic and historical information circa 1900 to 1995. Two documents were compiled by two famous Kenyans; these works provide a very comprehensive and intimate account of Gikuyu culture and recent history. Four documents provide information on pre-colonial Gikuyu culture and society. Ten documents are based on findings of multidisciplinary research conducted, from 1967-1973, in a Gikuyu village called Ngecha; focusing on Ngecha's physical geography and resident families and historical settings, as well as aspects of change in behavior and family life. Other documents are based on work in different Gikuyu villages in 1980s and 1990s. These deal with the lives of women, patterns of marriage across generations, trends in adolescent sexual behavior and fertility, household economic strategies, and continuities in the cultural values of children. A document reviews works on the Mau Mau Rebellion in light of women's participation

    Keywords: Canelo Indians ; Quechua Indians
    Abstract: The documents of the Saraguro Quichua collection include historical information but focus on the latter half of the twentieth century. Linda Belote describes ethnic relations between largely rural Indians and largely town-dwelling whites in the Parish of Saraguro, Loja Province, Ecuador. Religion is discussed as another sphere of ethnic competition, highlighting the role of a progressive (white) priest in social change. The author also touches upon often interrelated forces of outmigration and transculturation. Belote and Belote review the roles of three institutions in promoting culture change among the Saraguro Quechua during the middle/late-twentieth century. In order of importance these were: folklore music groups, religious organizations, and the Andean Mission, a government development agency whos featured modernization programs included sanitation, furniture, textiles and clothing, and agriculture and animal husbandry. James Belotes dissertation is a study of the changing adaptive strategies of the Saraguro indigenes who live in the southern Ecuadorian provinces of Loja and Zamora-Chinchipe. The study is divided into three major parts: background information on the highland region; "the highland adaptation", an analysis of the Saraguro economy; and "the lowland adaptation", cultural and economic adaptation to living conditions in the lowland region. Ruthbeth Finerman presents a succinct culture summary of the Saraguro people who live in Loja Province in Ecuador's southern Andes. Major emphasis in the study is on illness, theories of illness, treatment of the sick, and life cycle events related to problems of health

    Keywords: Bhil (Indic people)
    Abstract: The Bhil collection of documents, all in English, deal with a population that comprises the third largest (after the Gond and Santals) and most widely distributed ethnic group in India. Two major studies of traditional Bhil ethnography will be found in Naik and Nath. Naiks work deals with the Rajpipla and Western Khandesh regions of western India, while Naths is concerned with the Ratanmal area of northwestern India. Both of these documents however are limited in time depth covering culture history and ethnography only through the mid 1950s. More recent studies deal largely with problems of culture change and effects of acculturation on the society, as indicated in Doshi, Hooda, and Ram. Other major topics deal with marriage in conflict with the Indian Penal Code in Singh, and the status and position of women in terms of changing cultural perspectives, in Mann

    Abstract: The NT18 Tewa Pueblos documents, all in English, cover a time span from approximately 1540 to the late twentieth century. Although this collection does deal to some extent with most of the Tewa pueblos of New Mexico San Juan, Santa Clara, San Ildefonso, Tesuque, Pojoaque, and Nambe - major emphasis in this document is on the two pueblos of San Juan and San Ildefonso. A "classic" study of traditional Tewa ethnography, at least up to 1927, is found in Parsons, focusing on social organization, ritual, and ceremonies, but lacking much information on material culture. Brief culture summaries on some of the other pueblos will be found as follows: San Ildefonso; Santa Clara; Nambe; Pojoaque; Tesuque; and San Juan. Other major topics include population statistics on San Juan in Aberle; recent (twentieth century) culture change in San Ildefonso in Whitman; Tewa world view and the role of dual moiety organization in a functioning society in Ortiz; and details of the Raingod Drama, and the making of medicine men in San Juan in Laski

    Keywords: Otavalo Indians ; Quechua Indians
    Abstract: The Otavalo Quichua collection documents focus upon a time span from 1940 to 2001, but include significant historical information extending to the late pre-Inca period (ca. AD 1250). Although the Otavalo may now be encountered in major urban areas worldwide, this collection concentrates on core area in Imbabura province, Ecuador (cantons of Otavalo and Cotacachi); in particular, the towns of Peguche, Ilumán and Cotacachi. Parsons is the classic ethnography, providing basic description of material culture, close observation of family life, participant observation in divination, a full chapter of folklore, and good descriptions of the annual round of religious festivals. Wibbelsmans doctoral dissertation focuses almost exclusively on the ritual/festival cycle, while considering its cosmological underpinnings and role in (re)constituting and revivifying and communities ever more engaged with, and living throughout, Ecuador and the world. Solomon details the politico-economic history behind a uniquely successful ethos and means of cultural survival and promotion

    Abstract: The African American Collection provides information on history, race relations, civil rights movement, culture and contemporary economic problems, circa 1620s to 2000s. Davis and Pinkey cover from the earliest days of slavery up to about 1970. Four documents deal with racial segregation and discrimination both prior to and immediately after the civil rights movements. Three documents feature in-depth portrayals of individual life histories, communities and families, and kinship networks and migration patterns. Two documents provide a theoretically complex discussion of race relations and opportunities in urban communities. Two recent documents address deconstructing erroneous representations of African Americans in scholarly discourse and public policy and education and popular culture. The remaining documents discuss the continuity of racial discrimination and class- and gender-based exploitation in the lives of African American women and artists

    Abstract: The Javanese Collection features documents, all of them in English, covering a variety of cultural and socioeconomic information. Most of the documents deal with the post 1949 period in which the Javanese, as citizens of the newly founded Indonesian Republic, witnessed political violence and rapid economic transformation. The place focus is central Java where a group of scholars, sponsored by Massachusetts Institute of Technology, conducted ethnographic research in early 1950s. The outputs of this study included the works of the scholarly couple Hildred and Clifford Geertz, and several other researchers. Major themes covered include kinship and family system, religion and culture change, social organization and village life, marketing behavior of peasants. Together, these studies provide a comprehensive account of Javanese culture and society as observed in the 1950s-1970s. These earlier studies are supplemented by other documents in the collection which, based on information from 1980s to mid-2000s, examine more specific themes. Coverage includes family life, aspects of culture including concepts of self, shame, place, gender and power. Other documents in the collection include broad ethnographic descriptions of Javanese culture by an Indonesian anthropologist

    Abstract: The Mescalero Apache collection consists of all English language documents covering a time span from approximately 1540 to the late 1980s. Documents which provide a general summary of Mescalero culture history and ethnography are Opler, and the last section of Farrer's work on this group. The three studies by Basehart in this collection, also provide information on social and political organization, leadership, and subsistence patterns. Dealing with the more metaphysical concepts of Mescalero society are the works by Farrer. Farrer discusses Mescalero concepts of space, time, and sound and the way they communicate meaning and order within the culture. The second study by Farrer, describes native concepts of cosmology, ethnoastronomy, and the relationship between celestial phenomena and the environment. Various other ethnographic topics of interest in this document are: shamanism and supernatural power in Chris and Opler; mythology associated with the birth of the culture hero, Child-of-the Water; Mescalero beliefs and practices related to death, and peyote ceremonialism in Opler. Of major interest in this collection of documents is the study of the girls' puberty ceremony in Nicholas, which gives a general account of this ceremony, and is further supplemented in greater detail in Farrer

    Keywords: Bhil (Indic people) ; Bhil ; Bhil
    Abstract: The Bhil collection of documents, all in English, deal with a population that comprises the third largest (after the Gond and Santals) and most widely distributed ethnic group in India. Two major studies of traditional Bhil ethnography will be found in Naik and Nath. Naik's work deals with the Rajpipla and Western Khandesh regions of western India, while Nath's is concerned with the Ratanmal area of northwestern India. Both of these documents however are limited in time depth covering culture history and ethnography only through the mid 1950s. More recent studies deal largely with problems of culture change and effects of acculturation on the society, as indicated in Doshi, Hooda, and Ram. Other major topics deal with marriage in conflict with the Indian Penal Code in Singh, and the status and position of women in terms of changing cultural perspectives, in Mann

    Abstract: The Burundi collection provides historical, cultural and economic information on Burundi culture and society, circa 1907-1998. Documents that discuss the colonial period cover important themes including physical geography and material culture, ethnicity and social structure, law and custom, and gender roles and cultural ideals. Other documents deal with political processes and important historical events in the post independence period including the politics of genocide in the Great Lakes region. This includes R. Lemarchand's analysis of the genocide of Hutu by Tutsi in Burundi (1972), of Tutsi and Hutu by Hutu in Rwanda (1994) and of Hutu by Tutsi in Congo (1996-1997). Also included is a book by a professional anthropologist who lived among Burundian Hutu refugees in Tanzania. Malkki focuses on the ways the displacement of these Hutu refugees led to the creation of "essentialist" ethnic identities and the horrible violence generated both in Burundi and neighboring countries

    Keywords: Tucuna Indians ; Tukuna ; Tukuna
    Abstract: The Ticuna Collection documents, all of them in English, cover cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1941 to 1995. Two of these documents are produced by Curt Nimuendaju, a German anthropologist who conducted ethnographic fieldwork among the Ticuna in 1935 and 1941-1942 on behalf of University of California. The documents vary in size, and coverage. One is a larger monograph describing economic activities, aspects of material culture, personality character and social life, social organization (largely focusing on clans and moieties), art, religion and magic. The other is a brief over view of Ticuna culture originally published in the Handbook of South American Indians. Together, these works provide a well rounded first hand account of Ticuna culture and society as observed by the author. The document by Hammond, Dolman and Watkinson discusses the ways the Ticuna adaptively transformed their traditional swidden-fallow land use practices to make advantage of emerging market opportunities in timber and forest products

    Abstract: The Shilluk Collection covers a wide variety of cultural and historical information, circa 1900 to 1990.

Seligman, covering political organization, kinship, family life, marriage system, religion and funeral customs as observed in 1909-1910. The collection also includes Evans-Pritchard's classic essay on the divine kingship of the Shilluk, and two summary articles by professional anthropologists working with the International African Institute. Other works in the collection include brief ethnographic descriptions, articles and manuscripts that appeared in scholarly journals and records of the Anglo-Egyptian colonial administration. Topics covered in the collection include religious and medical beliefs, folklore, settlement pattern, social organization, customary laws and succession to kingship

    Abstract: The Gikuyu Collection covers cultural, economic and historical information circa 1900 to 1995. Two documents were compiled by two famous Kenyans; these works provide a very comprehensive and intimate account of Gikuyu culture and recent history. Four documents provide information on pre-colonial Gikuyu culture and society. Ten documents are based on findings of multidisciplinary research conducted, from 1967-1973, in a Gikuyu village called Ngecha; focusing on Ngecha's physical geography and resident families and historical settings, as well as aspects of change in behavior and family life. Other documents are based on work in different Gikuyu villages in 1980s and 1990s. These deal with the lives of women, patterns of marriage across generations, trends in adolescent sexual behavior and fertility, household economic strategies, and continuities in the cultural values of children. A document reviews works on the Mau Mau Rebellion in light of women's participation
