    Abstract: The Taiwan Hokkien collection consists of 64 documents, all in English. None of the 64 documents maybe considered a comprehensive general survey of Taiwanese Hokkien culture or society. Given the variability of cultural forms among Hokkien, in such institutional realms for example, as kinship and religion, it is doubtful that such a survey could even be written. Yet it is precisely this variability, and the highly sophisticated use of social theory employed in many of these documents, that make this collection extremely rich for cross-cultural or comparative studies (researchers should check for time and place coverage to determine the specific collection focus for the document he or she is using, since the generalizations made by authors often apply only to specific fieldwork locales rather than to the entire collection unit). Specific areas of inquiry for which the cross-cultural researcher will find this collection rewarding include the relationship between varieties of religious belief and community structure, the relationship of ecology and settlement patterns to lineage organization, and patterns of family/household organization

    Keywords: Bambute ; Mbuti ; Mbuti
    Abstract: The Mbuti (Bambuti, pl.) in a general sense are the Pygmies of the Ituri forest in Democratic Republic of the Congo and consist of four subgroups; the Aka, Efe, Mbuti, and Sua. This file on the Mbuti consists of 6 documents with coverage from 1930 to ca. 1975. The file is restricted in its coverage to the Pygmies of the southern and central Ituri forest who are associated with the Babira villagers. The literature contained in the Mbuti file is almost all by Colin Turnbull, whose fieldwork spanned the period from ca. 1950 through 1973

    Keywords: Chinese Canadians ; Chinesen ; Chinesen
    Abstract: This collection of 6 documents covers the time period from the middle of the nineteenth century to the 1980s with an emphasis on some of the major Chinatowns located in several Canadian cities. Much of the file deals with the migration of the Chinese to Canada and the restrictive immigration policies applied to them by the Canadian government. Nearly all the documents address the discriminatory and racist practices imposed on the Chinese immigrants by the Caucasian Canadian society. Probably the best general coverage on the Chinese in Canada is presented in Li, which deals with the period from their first arrival in Canada in 1858 to about 1985. Lai is a definitive history of Chinatowns in Canada from 1858-ca. 1985, with particular reference to Victoria, British Columbia. Works describing specific Chinatowns in specific cities begins with Thompson, which is an examination of the history and social organization of the Chinese population in Toronto, Canada. Anderson contributes a systematic analysis of the relationship between Vancouver's Chinese and Canadian communities from the late 1880s to about 1980. Hoe presents a socio-historical study of the structural changes taking place in various Chinese communities in British Columbia and Alberta (Calgary and Edmonton), from the mid-nineteenth century to ca. 1972

    Keywords: Chinese Americans ; Chinatown (San Francisco, Calif.) ; Taiwanese Americans ; Chinesen ; Chinesen
    Abstract: Chinese Americans are the migrants and their descendants who migrated from China to the United States, starting in approximately 1848. This file contains fifteen documents covering the time period from ca. 1848 to the 1980s. These documents deal with Chinatowns located in several American cities (e.g., San Francisco, New York City), plus additional data on the Chinese American populations in such regional areas as the Monterey Bay region of California, and Hawaii. Much of the file deals with the history of the migration of the Chinese to the United States and the restrictive immigration policies applied to them by the United States government. Additional topics that appear in all the documents in this file are those of the discriminatory and racist practices imposed on the Chinese immigrants by the Caucasian American society, cultural adaptation and acculturation, Chinese associations, and ethnic businesses (e.g., restaurants, laundries, and groceries)

    Keywords: Berbers (Morocco) ; Berber ; Berber
    Abstract: The Shluh belong to the Masmuda branch of sedentary Berbers inhabiting the Grand-Atlas and Anti-Atlas Mountains and the plain of the Sous River Valley in southern Morocco. They are divided into a large number of relatively small named groups. The term Shluh refers rather indiscriminately to nearly all speakers of Berber dialects in Morocco. This file consists of six documents, three are translations from the French, and three are in English. Berque and Montagne are the major works in the file supplemented by the more recent data presented in Hatt. Montagne deals with the history and political evolution of the Shluh, dealing in turn with the Sous region, with the political organization of the Berber republics, and with the rise to personal power of individual chiefs. Dupas is a short description of the community storehouses in use among the Shluh. Hoffman contains general information on the structure of traditional society, ecology, and economy. Hatt updates the existing material on the Shluh through 1971, deals with the Idaw Tanan confederation of the Shluh, and contains information on economy, subsistence patterns, social structure, and social relationships
