    Lands of the Lakota: Policy, Culture and Land Use on the Pine Ridge

    1 Lands of the Lakota: Policy, Culture and Land Use on the Pine Ridge Reservation Joseph Stromberg Senior Honors Thesis Environmental Studies and Anthropology Washington University in St. Louis 2 Abstract Land is invested with tremendous historical and cultural significance for the Oglala Lakota Nation of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Widespread alienation from direct land use among tribal members also makes land a key element in exploring the roots of present-day problems—over two thirds of the reservation’s agricultural income goes to non-Natives, while the majority of households live below the poverty line. In order to understand how current patterns in land use are linked with federal policy and tribal culture, this study draws on three sources: (1) archival research on tribal history, especially in terms of territory loss, political transformation, ethnic division, economic coercion, and land use; (2) an account of contemporary problems on the reservation, with an analysis of current land policy and use pattern; and (3) primary qualitative ethnographic research conducted on the reservation with tribal members. Findings indicate that federal land policies act to effectively block direct land use. Tribal members have responded to policy in ways relative to the expression of cultural values, and the intent of policy has been undermined by a failure to fully understand the cultural context of the reservation. The discussion interprets land use through the themes of policy obstacles, forced incorporation into the world-system, and resistance via cultural sovereignty over land use decisions. Acknowledgements I would like to sincerely thank the Buder Center for American Indian Studies of the George Warren Brown School of Social Work as well as the Environmental Studies Program, for support in conducting research.

    Rolston on Animals, Ethics, and the Factory Farm

    [Expositions 6.1 (2012) 29–40] Expositions (online) ISSN: 1747–5376 Unnaturally Cruel: Rolston on Animals, Ethics, and the Factory Farm CHRISTIAN DIEHM University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point In 2010, over nine billion animals were killed in the United States for human consumption. This included nearly 1 million calves, 2.5 million sheep and lambs, 34 million cattle, 110 million hogs, 242 million turkeys, and well over 8.7 billion chickens (USDA 2011a; 2011b). Though hundreds of slaughterhouses actively contributed to these totals, more than half of the cattle just mentioned were killed at just fourteen plants. A slightly greater percentage of hogs was killed at only twelve (USDA 2011a). Chickens were processed in a total of three hundred and ten federally inspected facilities (USDA 2011b), which means that if every facility operated at the same capacity, each would have slaughtered over fifty-three birds per minute (nearly one per second) in every minute of every day, adding up to more than twenty-eight million apiece over the course of twelve months.1 Incredible as these figures may seem, 2010 was an average year for agricultural animals. Indeed, for nearly a decade now the total number of birds and mammals killed annually in the US has come in at or above the nine billion mark, and such enormous totals are possible only by virtue of the existence of an equally enormous network of industrialized agricultural suppliers. These high-volume farming operations – dubbed “factory farms” by the general public, or “Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs)” by state and federal agencies – are defined by the ways in which they restrict animals’ movements and behaviors, locate more and more bodies in less and less space, and increasingly mechanize many aspects of traditional husbandry.

  • Differential Obligations Towards Others in Need Palmer, Clare

    Differential Obligations Towards Others in Need Palmer, Clare

    Astrolabio. Revista internacional de filosofía Año 2013 Núm. 15. ISSN 1699-7549. pp. 242-246 Differential obligations towards others in need Palmer, Clare. Animal Ethics in Context, New York: Columbia University Press, 2010. CRITICAL NOTE ON CLARE PALMER'S ANIMAL ETHICS IN CONTEXT In human ethics, there is a common belief that our moral obligations towards other individuals are not restricted to abstaining from harming them. We should also prevent or relieve a harmful state of affairs for other human beings, whenever it is in our power to do something about it. However, in the animal ethics debate, the idea that we may have reasons not only to refrain from harming animals but also to help them has not been particularly welcome. Animal Ethics in Context constitutes, regardless, a remarkable exception to this tendency by examining the hypothesis of positive obligations to assist animals in need. The book opens by considering the case of 114 horses left starving to death by their owners, in Amersham, Buckinghamshire. If it was in our power to do something to alleviate their suffering, ought we to do it? Would it be wrong to let them to suffer and die if we could otherwise help them? The immediate response to this case is that it failing to assist them would be wrong. But, if this is the case, does it imply that we should assist every animal in a situation of need? What about the animals that live in the wild? Wild animals experience systematic suffering during their lives and have premature deaths. For example, every year there is a massive drowning of wildebeest during their migration from Tanzania to Kenya.
