The papers were written with the hope that a comparison of the Brazilian with the Indian academic experience could enlarge our understanding of the social, historical and cultural implications of the development of anthropology in different contexts.

Socio-Economic Characteristics of Tribal Communities That Call Themselves Hindu
Socio-economic Characteristics of Tribal Communities That Call Themselves Hindu Vinay Kumar Srivastava Religious and Development Research Programme Working Paper Series Indian Institute of Dalit Studies New Delhi 2010 Foreword Development has for long been viewed as an attractive and inevitable way forward by most countries of the Third World. As it was initially theorised, development and modernisation were multifaceted processes that were to help the “underdeveloped” economies to take-off and eventually become like “developed” nations of the West. Processes like industrialisation, urbanisation and secularisation were to inevitably go together if economic growth had to happen and the “traditional” societies to get out of their communitarian consciousness, which presumably helped in sustaining the vicious circles of poverty and deprivation. Tradition and traditional belief systems, emanating from past history or religious ideologies, were invariably “irrational” and thus needed to be changed or privatised. Developed democratic regimes were founded on the idea of a rational individual citizen and a secular public sphere. Such evolutionist theories of social change have slowly lost their appeal. It is now widely recognised that religion and cultural traditions do not simply disappear from public life. They are also not merely sources of conservation and stability. At times they could also become forces of disruption and change. The symbolic resources of religion, for example, are available not only to those in power, but also to the weak, who sometimes deploy them in their struggles for a secure and dignified life, which in turn could subvert the traditional or establish structures of authority. Communitarian identities could be a source of security and sustenance for individuals. -
On the Non-Existence of "Dravidian Kinship"
Edinburgh Papers In South Asian Studies Number 6, (1996) _____________________________________________________________________________ On the Non-Existence of "Dravidian Kinship" Anthony Good Social Anthropology School of Social & Political Studies University of Edinburgh For further information about the Centre and its activities, please contact the Convenor Centre for South Asian Studies, School of Social & Political Studies, University of Edinburgh, 55 George Square, Edinburgh EH8 9LL. e-mail: [email protected] web page: www.ed.ac.uk/sas/ ISBN: 1 900 795 05 1 Paper Price: £2 inc. postage and packing On the Non–Existence of “Dravidian Kinship”* Anthony Good The proposition underlying this paper is a simple one, namely, that there is no such thing as the Dravidian kinship system. Naturally, such a stark statement requires a great deal of qualification and explanation if it is to represent anything more than gratuitous iconoclasm. I shall try to satisfy that requirement in three ways, as follows. Empirically, I shall show using published ethnographic evidence that the great majority of Dravidian speakers in South Asia do not have a Dravidian kinship system as conventionally defined. Neither the relationship terminology nor the preferential marriage rules are in fact as they have been conventionally represented. Rather more briefly, I shall also claim that, taxonomically, “the Dravidian kinship system” forms one element in an inadequately constructed typology of kinship systems; while, theoretically, the notion of a “kinship system” leads to an overly static analysis, and involves an unacceptable degree of reification. First, however, it is necessary to say something about the nature of kinship, and explain why there is nonetheless an over–riding need to grasp it as a whole – though as a totality rather than as a system. -

Kautilya’s Arthashastra (324-296 BC) was a treatise on politics, statecraft and economics but also described the functioning of Indian society in detail. Megasthenes was the Greek ambassador to the court of Chandragupta Maurya from 324 BC to 300 BC. He also wrote a book on the structure and customs of Indian society. Al Biruni’s accounts of India are famous. He was a 1 Persian scholar who visited India and wrote a book about it in 1030 AD. Al Biruni wrote of Indian social and cultural life, with sections on religion, sciences, customs and manners of the Hindus. In the 17th century Bernier came from France to India and wrote a book on the life and times of the Mughal emperors Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb, their life and times. -

Without visual sensibility there is no light, no movement. Robert Delaunay, Light (1912) This chapter explores the relational ethics of how meaning is made through the reflexive process of judgments about existential life positions which create moral identities by our actions in the world. I will examine how this moral identity can emerge through using stories as a “social (re)membering”. It is in the act of social remembering, recognition and regret where Freud (1962) and Nietzsche (1994) argue that morality acts as “the ethics of care” and as a societial mechanism of obligation. Morality serves to legitimatize the social structures and institutions of co-created roles and expected behaviours. The individual develops ways of being to compensate for frustrations and uncertainty. Nietzsche (1994) explores this tension between the psychological need and the rationalizion of behaviour as moralised actions and sees this experience as the individual’s attempt to impose one’s will within a socio-economic context. I will attempt to explore relational ethics by examining the performative aspects of teaching relational ethics through interpersonal relationships between self and other. -
