  • ANTHROPOLOGICAL RESEARCHES and STUDIES No 4, 2014 3 a Lithuanian “Ethnographic Village”: Heritage, Private Property
    ANTHROPOLOGICAL RESEARCHES AND STUDIES No 4, 2014 A Lithuanian “Ethnographic Village”: Heritage, Private Property, Entitlement Kristina Jonutyte Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology Address correspondence to: Kristina Jonutyte, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, PO Box 11 03 51, 06017 Halle (Saale) Germany. Ph.: +49 (0) 345 2927 0; Fax: +49 (0) 345 2927 502; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In this article, various aspects of engagement with the past and with heritage are explored in the context of Grybija village in southern Lithuania. The village in question is a heritage site within an "ethnographic villages" programme, which was initiated by the Soviet state and continued by Independent Lithuania after 1990. The article thus looks at the ideological aspects of heritage as well as its practical implications to Grybija's inhabitants. Moreover, local ideas about private property, righteous ownership and entitlement are explored in their complexity and in relation to the heritage project. Since much of the preserved heritage in the village is private property, various restrictions and prohibitions are imposed on local residents, which are deemed as neither righteous nor effective by many locals. In the meantime, the discourse of the "ethnographic villages" project exotifies and distances the village and its inhabitants, constructing an "Other" that is both admired and alienated. Keywords: heritage site, private property, Lithuania. The fieldsite Grybija is a small village in the far South of Lithuania, Dzūkija region. There are around 50 permanent inhabitants and another dozen or so who stay for the summer, plus weekend visitors.1 The village is in the territory of Dzūkijos National Park which was established in order to protect the landscape as well as natural and cultural monuments of the region.

Brochini, Chairman, Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation, Yosemite, CA; Danette Johnson, Tribal GIS Analyst, Mariposa, CA ABSTRACT Indigenous names relating to Significant people and places along major tributaries emptying into the great San Joaquin River define culture boundaries. Compilation of data necessary for completing a Tribal GIS database used seven criteria listed by the BIA and implemented into theme layers. When GIS resource layers from other agencies are queried, patterns emerge to relate lineages of 11 culture resource routes through ceremonial villages, camps, and Treaty E and Treaty M boundaries to ethnographic village records. Tribal GIS protocols can be applied to datasets from other tribal cultures using a simple set of table guidelines for watershed nomenclature. INTRODUCTION Just before the culture changes had taken their toll upon the indigenous communities located at a major ford across the Merced River, Se-saw-che had been a central area for local cultures to come together. Resources that existed within a 20 mile radius consisted of salt manufacturing, salmon harvesting, seed fields in the meadows just above the cliffs, bulb and onion fields along the bottoms 2 called “yowoko” meaning “muddy or slow sluggish waters”, and other necessities. 1 This bustling place was used as a crossing by the Chimteya and the Awalache people, by Moraga, by the Gold Rush multinationals, and by the U.S.

It describes and analyses native lore and associated cultural values related to fish. In contrast to a number of researches on the other faunal taxa like mammals and birds, ethnoichthyological studies are still few. It is also the case for the study of fishing activities in tropical rainforest.

Two periods frequently cited as examples of this are the 19th-century consolidation and expansion of the German Empire and the 20th century Nazi Germany.

    TRANS: GENDER AND RACE IN AN AGE OF UNSETTLED IDENTITIES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Rogers Brubaker | 256 pages | 01 Nov 2016 | Princeton University Press | 9780691172354 | English | New Jersey, United States Trans: Gender and Race in an Age of Unsettled Identities PDF Book Retrieved October 1, Ethnic and Racial Studies. In his analysis, transracial identities generate uneasy resonances with not only the dark histories of racial passing, but also the contemporary realities of racial oppression. How the transgender experience opens up new possibilities for thinking about gender and race In the summer of , shortly after Caitlyn Jenner came out as transgender, the NAACP official and political activist Rachel Dolezal was "outed" by her parents as white, touching off a heated debate in the media about the fluidity of gender and race. Ja Du, a trans woman who was born Caucasian but now considers herself Filipina, created a Facebook page and community for others who self-identify as transracial. The use of the term to describe changing racial identity has been criticized by members of the transracial adoption community. Transgender identities have moved from the margins to the mainstream with dizzying speed, and ethnoracial boundaries have blurred. This is a timely, judicious, and tremendously thoughtful and learned investigation into present-day debates. Mail address P. Rogers Brubaker. The New York Times. By rethinking race and ethnicity through the multifaceted lens of the transgender experience—encompassing not just a movement from one category to another but positions between and beyond existing categories—Brubaker underscores the malleability, contingency, and arbitrariness of racial categories.

Members of Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage (“DR”) seek to create an alternative model for a more just and sustainable world. They face twin challenges in seeking to expand that model through recruitment to their community and retaining the integrity of their unique lifestyle that makes it possible and enjoyable. DR utilizes processes of recruitment and retention to construct and defend a collective identity based in accommodating for personal and political concerns, one characterized specifically by the values of egalitarianism and environmentalism as focal points for their shared lifestyle. Yet they also erect barriers to keep out potential recruits who may compromise that identity.

SILVA)\.1() and ALPINA BEGOSSI Nilcleo de Estudos e Pesquisas 11mbientais, University of Campitlas, C P. 6166, CPP: 13083 970, Campinas (SP), Brazil ABSTRACT.~ The impounded portion of the Piradcaba River sustains a recently established smaU scale fishery. The aims of this vlOrk are to \o"'€rity the knowledge of Piracicaba River fishennen about fish biology and behavior, and to compare this knowledge to scientific information. We interviewed 22 fishermen with ques­ tionnaires and photographs of ten fish species. The fishermen showed a detailed knowledge about fish diet predators, spatial and temporal distributions, repro­ duction and migratory patterns. Fishermen know better the common and com­ mercially valuable fishes than the rare ones. Important factors influencing local ethnoichthyological knmvledge are the value and abundance of the fishes~ their usefulness in the fishery, and the frequency with which fishermen observe some of the biological attributes (such as feeding habits) of fishes. Much of the folk knmvledge agreed with observations from the scientifk literature, Fishermen un­ derstand the trophic relationships among native and exotic fish species, and they know the migratory patterns and the habitat preferences of the most valuable fishes, Such folk information may contribute to fishery management strategies, These results show that the folk knowledge held by small scale tropical fishermen is important for improving biological research. Key words: Ethnobiology, tropical freshwater fishes, fishery, reservoir! fresh\vater fishermen.

There has been no social psychological research to date exploring the effects of ethnonyms. The authors report the results of 3 studies examining the potential effects of various features of ethnonyms on intergroup behavior. Analyses of archival data indicate that among indigenous African cultures (Study 1), indigenous Native American cultures (Study 2), and African Americans (Study 3), intergroup hostility was greater among in-groups characterized by less complex ethnonyms.

  • Ethno-Nationalism During Democratic Transition in Bulgaria: Political Pluralism As an Effective Remedy for Ethnic Conflict
    Ethno-Nationalism during Democratic Transition in Bulgaria: Political Pluralism as an Effective Remedy for Ethnic Conflict Bistra-Beatrix Volgyi Department of Political Science York University YCISS Post-Communist Studies Programme Research Paper Series Paper Number 003 March 2007 Research Papers Series publishes research papers on problems of post-communism written by graduate and undergraduate students at York University. Following the collapse of communism in the 1990s in Central and South- Eastern Europe, the region has not only undergone a difficult period of economic and political transition, but also has witnessed the rise of ethno-nationalism in several states, along with problems of national identity, state formation and the exclusion (or extermination as in the Yugoslav case) of minorities. Nationalism may adopt a variety of forms simultaneously - ethnic, cultural or civic, where either one of these forms or a mixture of elements from the three, may predominate in a state over time, influenced by politico-economic realities, elite behavior, party coalitions, international interests and ideological influences, as well as societal attitudes. Nationalism in its ethnic variant has led to the alienation and violation of minorities’ rights, and its supporters have advocated the creation of ethnically homogenous states. Proponents of cultural nationalism have attempted the assimilation of national minority ‘low cultures’ into the dominant national ‘high culture.’ On the other hand, civic nationalism has mobilized people in Eastern
