  • Why a Public Anthropology? Notes and References
    WHY A PUBLIC ANTHROPOLOGY? NOTES AND REFERENCES While the placement of notes and references online is still relatively rare, they are quite easy to examine in a PDF online format. Readers should use find (or control F) with a fragment of the quote to discover the cited reference. In a number of cases, I have added additional material so advanced readers, if they wish, can explore the issue in greater depth. Find can also be used to track down relevant citations, explore a topic of interest, or locate a particular section (e.g. Chapter 2 or 3.4). May I make a request? Since this Notes and References section contains over 1,300 references, it is likely that, despite my best efforts, there are still incomplete references and errors. I would appreciate readers pointing them out to me, especially since I can, in most cases, readily correct them. Thank you. Readers can email me at [email protected]. Quotes from Jim Yong Kim: On Leadership , Washington Post (April 1, 2010, listed as March 31, 2010) http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp- dyn/content/video/2010/03/31/VI2010033100606.html?hpid=smartliving CHAPTER 1 1.1 Bronislaw Malinowski, a prominent early twentieth century anthropologist, famously stated his goal in anthropology was "to grasp the native's point of view, his relation to life, to realize his vision of his world" (1961 [1922]:25) To do this, he lived as a participant-observer for roughly two years – between 1915-1918 – among the Trobriand Islanders of Papua New Guinea (in the South Pacific). Quoting him (1961[1922]:7-8): There is all the difference between a sporadic plunging into the company of natives, and being really in contact with them.

  • BF Skinner, JM Diamond E O Destino Das Culturas
    disponível em www.scielo.br/prc Sobrevivência ou Colapso? B. F. Skinner, J. M. Diamond e o Destino das Culturas Survival or Collapse? B. F. Skinner, J. M. Diamond and the Fate of Cultures Alexandre Dittrich* Universidade Federal do Paraná Resumo Um dos aspectos mais interessantes e polêmicos da obra de B. F. Skinner é sua interpretação sobre a evolução das culturas. De acordo com o autor, as conseqüências de práticas culturais retroagem sobre as culturas, no sentido de aumentar ou diminuir suas chances de sobrevivência. O livro “Colapso”, do biólogo e geógrafo norte-americano Jared Diamond, apresenta semelhanças marcantes com a teoria de Skinner, evidenciando que as conseqüências de práticas culturais têm influência decisiva sobre o destino das culturas. Este artigo busca detalhar tais semelhanças, argumentando que o livro de Diamond serve como complemento à teoria skinneriana, pois ilustra com exemplos concretos as afirmações gerais de Skinner sobre a evolução das culturas e, com isso, confere-lhes maior clareza e credibilidade. Palavras-chave: Skinner, Burrhus Frederic; Diamond, Jared Mason; cultura; behaviorismo radical. Abstract One of the most interesting and polemic features of B. F. Skinner’s work is his interpretation about cultural evolution. According to that author, the consequences of cultural practices have a retroactive effect over the cultures, increasing or decreasing their chances of survival. The book “Collapse” – written by the north-Ameri- can biologist and geographer Jared Diamond – shows remarkable resemblances with Skinner’s theory making clear that the consequences of cultural practices have a decisive influence over the fate of cultures. This paper aims to detail such resemblances, considering that Diamond’s book serves as a complement to Skinner’s theory, because it illustrates with concrete examples the general statements made by Skinner about cultural evolution and, by doing so, makes these statements clearer and more credible.

  • Hunting As a Moral Good
    © 2009 The White Horse Press. www.whpress.co.uk Unlicensed copying or printing, or posting online without permission is illegal. Hunting as a Moral Good LAWRENCE CAHOONE Department of Philosophy College of the Holy Cross Worcester, MA 02093, USA E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT I argue that hunting is not a sport, but a neo-traditional cultural trophic practice consistent with ecological ethics, including a meliorist concern for animal rights or welfare. Death by hunter is on average less painful than death in wild nature. Hunting achieves goods, including trophic responsibility, ecological expertise and a unique experience of animal inter-dependence. Hunting must then be not only permissible but morally good wherever: a) preservation of ecosystems or species requires hunting as a wildlife management tool; and/or b) its animal deaths per unit of nutrition is lower than that caused by farming practices. Both conditions obtain at least some of the time.

    Jared Diamond, “The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race,” Discover Magazine (May 1987), pages 64-66 To science we owe dramatic changes in our smug self-image. Astronomy taught us that our earth isn’t the center of the universe but merely one of billions of heavenly bodies. From biology we learned that we weren’t specially created by God but evolved along with millions of other species. Now archaeology is demolishing another sacred belief: that human history over the past million years has been a long tale of progress. In particular, recent discoveries suggest that the adoption of agriculture, supposedly our most decisive step toward a better life, was in many ways a catastrophe from which we have never recovered. With agriculture came the gross social and sexual inequality, the disease and despotism, that curse our existence. At first, the evidence against this revisionist interpretation will strike twentieth century Americans as irrefutable. We’re better off in almost every respect than people of the Middle Ages, who in turn had it easier than cavemen, who in turn were better off than apes. Just count our advantages. We enjoy the most abundant and varied foods, the best tools and material goods, some of the longest and healthiest lives, in history. Most of us are safe from starvation and predators. We get our energy from oil and machines, not from our sweat. What neo-Luddite among us would trade his life for that of a medieval peasant, a caveman, or an ape? For most of our history we supported ourselves by hunting and gathering: we hunted wild animals and foraged for wild plants.
