Finin Dedication This is dedicated to my late grandfather Karl-Heinz Hermes, whose favourite exclamation while heading to his bookshelves was “I have a book on that”. i Acknowledgements Thank you to my family, who let me pursue Pacific Islands Studies as a cover-up for vacationing in Hawai’i for almost three years, who brought me to Papua New Guinea for the first time in 1992, and who gave me the genes for critical thinking and enjoying research. Thank you to my great professors and other clever people here, in Germany, and in Australia, who all gave me reassurance when in a slump of impostor syndrome. Thanks to those who encouraged my work at university social events, including, but not limited to, lunch with Benedict Anderson and dinner with James C. Scott, those who came out to presentations to hear me sound smart, and those who talked to me about my research to make me realize again and again how exciting it was and to not give up on it. Thank you to my dear friends in PNG, who inspired me in this research, emotionally supported me, willingly participated, and gave me new insights along the way.

    Chapter 13 Migration and Enslavement: A Medieval Model Youval Rotman At the beginning of the third millennium sociologist Stephen Castles has called for “a sociological argument that points to the significance of forced migration in contemporary society and in current processes of change”.1 Castles’ words have since become a landmark for scholars and activists interested in and working on migration and forced migration.2 Five years prior to the publica- tion of Castles’ article, the Refugee Participation Network – rpn – newsletter changed its name and format and became the Forced Migration Review. Pub- lished since 1998 by the Refugee Studies Centre in the Oxford Department of International Development, University of Oxford, it was launched in order to “contribute to improving policy and practice for people affected by forced mi- gration; provide a forum for the voices of displaced people; be a bridge be- tween research and practice; raise awareness of lesser-known (or little cov- ered) displacement crises; and promote knowledge of, and respect for, legal and quasi-legal instruments relating to refugees, idps and stateless people”.3 Although the fmr preceded Castles article’s publication by five years, its foundation can be considered as a response to the same need for a conceptual framework in the study of what has become over the last two decades the larg- est movement of people today. This is evident in particular in view of the premises that Castles has laid out in connecting forms of forced migration to the new economic system of globalization as well as to the socio-political framework of transnationalism.

  • Copán: the History of an Ancient Maya Kingdom 1
    Copán: The History of an Ancient Maya Kingdom 1 Contributions and Controversies in the Archaeology and History of Copán William L. Fash and Ricardo Agurcia Fasquelle The Classic Maya kingdom of Copán has enriched and enlivened scholarly debate on a host of anthropological issues since the mid-nine- teenth century. Best known for the abundance and great artistry of its stone sculpture, Copán reached its apogee during what scholars refer to as the Classic period (A.D. 250–900) of Lowland Maya civilization. Its settlements, architectural history, and hieroglyphic inscriptions attest that this southeasternmost Maya state peaked during the historically documented dynasty that reigned from A.D. 426 to 822. Copán has pro- vided fertile ground for productive theoretical debates on issues as diverse as state formation, urbanism, sociopolitical organization, eco- nomic specialization, the relative merits and strengths of historical texts and archaeological data, architecture and space, warfare, the Classic Maya collapse, and the possibilities for linking archaeology, epigraphy, and iconography in Mesoamerican studies. As Joyce Marcus (2004:372) noted recently, the Copán case has transcended its region: “One need no longer be a Mayanist to find the Copán story com- pelling. It is now one of the most detailed archaeological examples of secondary state formation in the prehistoric world.” COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL 1 W ILLIAM L. FASH AND R ICARDO A GURCIA FASQUELLE The abundance of Copán’s carved stone monuments has privi- leged the study of its hieroglyphic inscriptions and pictorial sculpture ever since ancient Maya ruins became an object of search, and research, in the early nineteenth century.

  • Logic of Allies and Enemies (LAE)
    A Logic of Allies and Enemies Wiebe van der Hoek Louwe B. Kuijer Y`ı N. Wang´ [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Dept. of Computer Science Dept. of Computer Science Dept. of Philosophy University of Liverpool University of Liverpool Zhejiang University Abstract We introduce the Logic of Allies and Enemies (LAE). This logic describes the dynamics of relations in a social network, under the assumption that agents have an tendency to estab- lish more stable relationships with others in the network, which was studied extensively in structural balance theory. Stability scores are introduced to evaluate the stability of a social network. We demonstrate a number of validities of this logic, apply it to concrete cases, and show that its model checking problem is PSPACE-complete. 1 Introduction Structural balance theory, also called “social balance theory” or simply “balance theory”, was initiated in Heider’s work on social psychology [15, 16, 17], and later reinvented by Harary et al. using graph theory in [12, 3, 14], where they use signed graphs to represent social networks of agents, with positive signs for allies or friends and negative signs for enemies or antagonists. This has become a basic framework for studying positive and negative relationships, and has since then become an active area in the field of social network analysis. A social network is (structurally) balanced if it meets certain structural conditions on its pos- itive or negative relationships between agents. For example, a “triad” of three agents that are all enemies of one another is considered unbalanced.
