Papua JOHN BRAITHWAITE, MICHAEL COOKSON, VALERIE BRAITHWAITE and LEAH DUNN1
2. Papua JOHN BRAITHWAITE, MICHAEL COOKSON, VALERIE BRAITHWAITE AND LEAH DUNN1 Papua is interpreted here as a case with both high risks of escalation to more serious conflict and prospects for harnessing a ‘Papua Land of Peace’ campaign led by the churches. The interaction between the politics of the Freeport mine and the politics of military domination of Papua, and military enrichment through Papua, are crucial to understanding this conflict. Replacing the top- down dynamics of military-political domination with a genuine bottom-up dynamism of village leadership and development is seen as holding the key to realising a Papua that is a ‘land of peace’ (see Widjojo et al. 2008). Papuans have less access to legitimate economic opportunities than any group in Indonesia and have experienced more violence and torture since the late 1960s in projects of the military to block their political aspirations than any other group in Indonesia today. Institutions established with the intent of listening to Papuan voices have in practice been deaf to those voices. Calls for truth and reconciliation are among the pleas that have fallen on deaf ears, which is an acute problem when so many Papuans see Indonesian policy in Papua as genocide. Anomie in the sense of withdrawal of commitment to the Indonesian normative order by citizens, and in the sense of gaming that order by the military, is entrenched in Papua. Background to the conflict Troubled jewels of cultural and biological diversity The island of New Guinea and the smaller islands along its coast are home to nearly 1000 languages (267 on the Indonesian side) and one-sixth of the world’s ethnicities (Ruth-Hefferbower 2002:228). -

The interpretations presented are my own and do not represent the view of any other person except where acknowledged in the text ii. Acknowledgments I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. David Hyndman, whose concern for the people of the Fourth World encouraged me to continue working on this area of study, and for his suggestion that I undertake fieldwork in the Western Province refugee camps in Papua New Guinea. The University of Queensland supplied funds for airfares between Brisbane, Port Moresby and Kiunga and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees arranged for UN transport in the Western Province. I thank both these institutions for supporting my visit to Papua New Guinea. Over the course of time, officials in both government and non-government institutions change; for this reason I would like to thank the institutions rather than individual persons. Foremost among these are the Department of Provincial Government and the Western Province Provincial Government, the Papua New Guinea Departtnent of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the Young Women's Christian Association of Papua New Guinea, the Papua New Guinea Department of Health, the Catholic Church Commission for Justice, Peace and Development, the Montfort Mission (Kiunga and East Awin), the ZOA Medical mission, and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (Canberra and Port More�by). -

Yabon, a Symbol for Peace and Freedom in West Papua, by Louise
YABON-A SYMBOL FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM IN WEST PAPUA Louise Byrne, December 2001 Yabon, the hero of this story, was born in the temperate climate of rural Victoria, bred to be vacuum-packed in a Coles Christmas hamper. He has become, instead, an important symbol for peace and justice in West Papua, for breaking the tension between Jakarta and Jayapura. 1 THE AGE, 27 AUGUST 2001, PHOTO HEATH MISSEN Caption: Walkie-porky: Yabon, pictured in Melbourne’s city centre, is a Very Important Pig right now. It will be his job to head the West Papua delegation to the Yumi Wantaim seminar, coinciding with PNG’s 26th anniversary of independence, which begins on September 15 on the banks of the Maribyrnong. In the highlands of New Guinea, the Bird of Paradise-shaped island on the western rim of Melanesia, men coat themselves in pig fat to keep out the cold, and little girl-mothers grieve when their pets are trussed, ready for market or for sacrifice. Pigs are the centre-piece of religious and social life. Their blood sanctifies land for ceremony, and opens negotiations between families for a marriage. They are financial capital, and if cash is required, perhaps to pay school fees or fund a funeral, a pig will be sold. They underpin the village economy, and are still the most popular form of compensation in the art of Melanesian peace-making. “When our people from the islands meet a family from the highlands, we cook barapen, have a feast. We cook pig—which the mountain people usually eat, and fish—which is more usually the diet of the islanders. -
On the Distribution and Complexity of Gender and Numeral Classifiers Kaius Sinnemäki University of Helsinki
Chapter 4 On the distribution and complexity of gender and numeral classifiers Kaius Sinnemäki University of Helsinki This paper surveys the occurrence of gender and numeral classifiers inthelan- guages of the world and evaluates statistically whether there is a complexity trade- off between these two linguistic patterns. Complexity is measured as overt coding of the pattern in a language, an approach that has been shown earlier toprovide a reliable first estimate for possible trade-offs between typological variables. The data come from a genealogically and areally stratified sample of 360 languages. The relationship between gender and numeral classifiers in this data was researched by constructing Generalized Linear Mixed Models. According to the results a signifi- cant inverse relationship occurs between the variables independently of genealog- ical affiliation and geographical areas. The distributions are explained functionally by economy, that is, the tendency to avoid using multiple patterns in the same functional domain. Keywords: gender, numeral classifiers, language universals, complexity trade-off, description-based complexity, mixed effects modeling, economy, distinctness, lan- guage contact. 1 Introduction In the past 35 years there has been an increasing amount of cross-linguistic re- search on gender, and more broadly on noun classification (e.g., Dixon 1982; Cor- bett 1991; Aikhenvald 2000; Audring 2009; Kilarski 2013; Di Garbo 2014). How- ever, much of this research has been qualitative and not many researchers have focused on noun classification from a statistical typological perspective. Earlier work on noun classification systems suggested that languages might not have both classifiers and gender as separate categories (e.g., Dixon 1982). Kaius Sinnemäki. -

Ito, Akira ; Nakao, Minoru ; Wandra, Toni Human Taeniasis and Cysticercosis in Asia
Lancet (2003. Dec) 362(9399):1918-1920. Human Taeniasis and cysticercosis in Asia Ito, Akira ; Nakao, Minoru ; Wandra, Toni Human taeniasis and cysticercosis in Asia Akira Ito, Minoru Nakao, Toni Wandra Context Human taeniases caused by the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium and by the beef tapeworm, Taenia saginata are meat-borne parasitic diseases, and require pork and beef contaminated with metacestodes, the larval stage of these parasites, respectively. Taeniasis of T. solium has serious medical or public health problems, since it simultaneously causes cysticercosis, especially neurocysticercosis (NCC), threatening human life through accidental ingestion of eggs released from taeniasis patients. Approximately 70% of human population who has the custom to eat pork is risky for taeniasis/cysticercosis of T. solium. In contrast, taeniasis of T. saginata appears to be more widely distributed and common than T. solium. Over several decades it has been generally noticed that adult taeniid tapeworms expelled from local people in Asia appeared to be T. saginata (so called Asian Taenia), although they ate pork. It is now named Taenia asiatica and has been found from Taiwan, Korea, China, Vietnam and Indonesia, at least. (152 words) 1 Starting point Recent work on taeniasis in Asia indicates a third taeniid species, Taenia asiatica (AL Willingham and others. SE Asian J Trop Med Pub Health 2003; 34 (Suppl 1): 35-50) which is still unfamiliar even for the majority of parasitologists.
