  • Evolutionary Biology and Health of Hunter-Gatherer Populations
    9 Evolutionary biology and health of hunter-gatherer populations ALi\lN FROMENT Introduction Hunter-gatherers display a wide variety of morphological and physiological characteristics, and should provide a good model for the evolution of human biological characters across a considerable range of environments in presumably isolated situations. This chapter examines both ecological and genetic aspects of the evolu­ tion of present-day hunter-gatherers and also comments on what the future will hold for those who now face or soon will face cultural and technological transition through contact with dominant groups. Hunter-gatherers are not recognisable by their biological character­ istics - they are defined by their way of life, namely their relation to nature, which is a cultural, not a biological, definition (see Panter­ Brick, Layton and Rowley-Conwy, this volume). However their close interaction with the physical and animal environment, their small and mobile groups, their dietary and work patterns, did create ecological and evolutionary characteristics which shaped biological outcomes. Existing variation in biological traits will be examined as evolutionary responses to climate, diet and disease. Some partially unanswered questions related to evolution and transition can be listed. Concerning morphology, is small stature an adaptation to hunting and gathering? What is the genetic basis for anatomical characteristics and what room is there for modulation by nutritional and infectious variables? Is there a secular trend modifying these

  • Brazil's São Luiz Do Tapajós
    www.water-alternatives.org Volume 8 | Issue 3 Fearnside, P.M. 2015. Brazil’s São Luiz do Tapajós dam: The art of cosmetic Environmental Impact Assessments. Water Alternatives 8(3): 373-396 Brazil’s São Luiz do Tapajós Dam: The Art of Cosmetic Environmental Impact Assessments Philip M. Fearnside National Institute for Research in Amazonia (INPA), Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil; [email protected] ABSTRACT: Brazil’s planned São Luiz do Tapajós dam is a key part of a massive plan for hydropower and navigable waterways in the Tapajós basin and on other Amazon River tributaries. The dam’s Environmental Impact Study (EIA) illustrates the fragility of protections. EIAs are supposed to provide input to decisions on development projects, but in practice these studies tend to become formalities in legalizing prior decisions made in the absence of information on or consideration of project impacts. The EIA has a tendency to minimize or ignore significant impacts. Loss of fisheries resources is likely to be critical for Munduruku indigenous people and for traditional riverside dwellers (ribeirinhos), but the EIA claims that there is "low expectation that natural conditions of aquatic environments will be significantly altered". The destruction of Munduruku sacred sites is simply ignored. The Brazilian government’s priority for the dam has resulted in blocking creation of the Munduruku’s Sawré Muybu indigenous land and other indigenous lands throughout Brazilian Amazonia. With the exception of one legally recognized community (Montanha e Mangabal), non-indigenous ribeirinhos are considered as not 'traditional people'. Even the one recognized community is not considered to require free, prior and informed consent.

  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • Indigenous Peoples and Development Projects in Brazilian Amazonia
    SÉRIE ANTROPOLOGIA 364 THE CHALLENGES OF INTERCULTURALITY: Indigenous Peoples and Sustainable Development Subprojects in Brazilian Amazonia Paul E. Little Brasília 2004 2 THE CHALLENGES OF INTERCULTURALITY: Indigenous Peoples and Sustainable Development Subprojects in Brazilian Amazonia Paul E. Little University of Brasilia Introduction The Pilot Program for the Protection of Brazilian Tropical Forests (hereafter “Pilot Program”) grew out of national and international concern over the accelerated destruction of the world’s tropical rain forests and currently represents the most ambitious ongoing effort in Brazil to protect its Amazon and Atlantic tropical forests. Based upon a proposal originally made by then German Chancellor Helmut Kohl at the 1990 Group of Seven Industrialized Countries1 (G-7) meeting in Houston, the Pilot Program began operation in 1995, after several years of intense negotiations and program design initiatives, with joint financing by the G-7 countries and the Brazilian government (see Fatheuer 1994). The PD/A (Demonstrative Projects Type A) Project, which will be analyzed here, promotes innovative development initiatives at the local level through the financing of small-scale sustainable development subprojects.2 The Project also seeks to disseminate those experiences that have proven to be successful, thereby providing a positive “demonstrative” effect for the implementation of environmentally sustainable production techniques. The PD/A Project is one of the few spaces within the entire Pilot Program that directly involves local civil society associations, organizations and cooperatives as an integral part of its programming. In its first nine years of operation, the PD/A Project financed a total of 194 sustainable development subprojects, of which 21 involved, directly or indirectly, Indigenous peoples: 16 in the Amazon region and 5 in the Atlantic forest region.

    IPP264 Paraguay Community Development Project Indigenous Peoples Development Framework Introduction Public Disclosure Authorized 1. Indigenous Peoples (IP) in Paraguay represent only 1.7% of the total population (about 87,100) people, according to the most recent Indigenous Peoples Census (2002). Notwithstanding, IP, show a higher population growth rate (3.9%) than the average for the national population (2.7%). Therefore, it is possible to expect that the proportion of IP will continue to grow for some time, even though they will continue to be a small proportion of the total population. 2. There are 19 different ethnic groups1 belonging to five linguistic families2, being the most numerous those belonging to the Guarari linguistic family3 (46,000 or 53%), followed by the Maskoy linguistic family groups4 (21,000 or 24%). The four largest IP groups are the Ava-Guarani (13,400 or 15.5%), Mbyá (14,300 or 16.7%), Pâí Tavyterâ (13,100 or 15.2%), and the Nivacle (12,000 or 13.9%). Most indigenous peoples speak Public Disclosure Authorized their own language and have a limited command of Spanish.
