  • Laura Nader: a Life of Teaching, Investigation, Scholarship and Scope
    Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California LAURA NADER Laura Nader: A Life of Teaching, Investigation, Scholarship and Scope Interviews conducted by Lisa Rubens and Samuel Redman in 2013 Copyright © 2014 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Laura Nader dated August 28, 2013. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

Pp. xxiii, 343. $37.50. Harmony Ideology presents a retrospective look at how law and its varied social and cultural uses emerge, take on particular form and social significance, and change. The setting is Talea de Castro, a Zapotec town in Southern Mexico, whose legal arrangements as cap­ tured by Laura Nader teeter between autonomy and subordination, traditional usages and a host of changes about to hit home. Nader sets the town, along with its people, identities, and institutions, in a larger comparative and theoretical context that provides perspectives for un­ derstanding dispute resolution, local autonomy, and ideology. Nader's basic thesis is that the way villagers see the law and use the courts for specific disputes makes sense in a context in which it is important that disputes are contained within the town, not appealed to or assumed by the larger state apparatus.

But global concerns over ecological destruction and climate change is prompting the UAE’s leaders to pursue alternative sources of energy. From this ecological fear, Masdar City was born, an ambitious project that hopes to create the world’s first “zero-carbon” emission city. The project’s goal is to utilize energy in a socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable system without sacrificing modern lifestyles. This case study will utilize theory on energy and infrastructures to analyze the implications of the project’s innovations, as well as to explore the rising intersection of neoliberalism and environmentalism to understand how a project like Masdar came to be.

  • Up the Anthropologist: Perspectives Gained from Studying Up
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 065 375 SO 002 093 AUTHOR Nader, Laura TITLE Up the Anthropologist: Perspectives Gained Frcm Studying Up. PUB 'DATE [72] NOTE 28p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$3.29 DESCRIPTORS *Anthropology; Citizenship; Community Study; *Field Studies; Higher Education; Intellectual Disciplines; Lower Class; Middle Class; *Power Structure; Relevance (Educatior); Research Needs; *Social Class; Social Problems; Social Sciences; *Student Research; Upper Class IDENTIFIERS Social Institutions ABSTRACT In this essay, the author presents a rationale (and opportunities) for anthropologists to study the middle and upper end of the social power structure, as well as the lower. Anthropologists have much to contribute to an understanding of the processes whereby ',Omer and responsibility are exercised in this country; indeed there is a certain urgency to this kind of anthropology. Among students at Berkeley, there is a tremendously energizing phenomenon in studying major institutions and organizations that affect everyday lives, such as the California Insurance Commission and the Better Business Bureau. (Reports of these studies are discussed and the value of this kind of research for citizenship education is pointed out.) "Studying up" as well as down would lead us to ask many "common sense" questions in reverse; and the consequences of not studying up as well as down are serious in terms of developing adequate theory and description. If one's pivot point is around those who have power/responsibility, then the questions change. It is particularly appropriate that anthropologists should lead the way in this work by virture of several characteristics of our discipline. There are those who would oppose such a reorientation of anthropology, and their reasons are discussed here.(Author/JLB) 4" U.S.
