  • Science and Evolution in the Public Eye
    Science and Evolution in the Public Eye Laurie R. Godfrey Many educators have expressed surprise at the extent to which students believe sensationalistic and catastrophic explanations of the origins of cultural and biological traits. Their inclination is to ignore sensationalism as "unworthy" of serious discussion, but they are being hampered by political pressures from the sensationalists, who tend to view themselves as bearers of "true science" and as opponents of outdated scientific beliefs or orthodoxies. Thus these catastrophic and often cryptoscientific views of racial and cultural trait origins are being given increasing exposure in popular literature, on TV, in movies, and in public school and college classrooms. Among the most notorious examples of this alarming trend are von Daniken's Chariots of the Gods? (1970), Barry Fell's America B.C. (1976), Jeffrey Goodman's Psychic Archaeology (1977), the "In Search of TV series, and the current UFO mania. Organizations with blatantly racist motives, such as the Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan, who proclaim separate "origins" (or creations) for different "races," are once again growing in visibility. The "orthodoxies" of the anthropological "establishment" are being challenged by students who proclaim separate-origins explanations (a series of invasions from outer space, or "experiments" by a creator) and by some of those proclaiming a single creation. These sensationalist views are financially supported by evangelistic grass-roots organizations. These organizations are politically active in the sense that each is "spreading the word." The various Bible research groups that hold weekly or biweekly meetings on college campuses engage in peculiar mixtures of odd-fact collecting and religious ceremony.

  • Noah's Ark and Ancient Astronauts: Pseudoscientific Beliefs About the Past Among a Sample of College Students
    Noah's Ark and Ancient Astronauts: Pseudoscientific Beliefs About the Past Among a Sample of College Students Creationist views are tied to a deeply held set of values and world-view. Cult archaeology and other pseudoscientific beliefs are unrelated to most such variables. Francis B. Harrold and Raymond A. Eve OST PEOPLE are curious about the distant past, especially that of our own species. This curiosity has led to the rise of archaeology Mand related sciences, which have given us a growing understanding of human origins and prehistory; but it has also spawned some of the most outlandish pseudoscience on record. Many people readily accept baseless claims about the past—including college students, as one of us (an anthro- pologist) has come to learn while teaching courses in archaeology and human evolution. Students who held such beliefs when they entered these classes did not always change their minds when they were exposed to scientific ap- proaches to the past. One student wanted to leave no doubt as to where he stood; at the end of a test on the human fossil record, he wrote, "Of course I don't believe any of this. 1 believe in the Bible." Such encounters aroused our curiosity concerning these pseudoscientific beliefs among our students. The result was a research project, using the perspectives and methods of social science, to learn more about these beliefs: how widely and strongly they are held, by whom, and why. The research (for a more detailed report, see Eve and Harrold 1986) helped us progress toward answering these questions and suggested ways to deal with such beliefs.

  • Anson Are to Continue to Maintain That This Is a True Story, They Are Obligated to Clarify the Discrepancies Mentioned
    Anson are to continue to maintain that this is a true story, they are obligated to clarify the discrepancies mentioned. If they can do so, fine and dandy. If not, then the public should be informed loudly and clearly that this book and any fur- ther representation of it in the media should be regarded as entertainment only. As it stands, the cover of the book would appear to constitute false advertising and should be handled in the same way as false advertising is handled in analo- gous cases. • The World Almanac Book of the Strange. By the Editors of the World Almanac. New American Library, New York, 1977. 482 pp., paperback, $2.50. Reviewed by James Randi Several members of the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal were contacted months before this book went to press. The results of those consultations are obvious, though we understood from the begin- ning that many of our comments and corrections would not be incorporated, simply because of a lack of time to rewrite certain sections; books just do not get into print if every last-minute revision and correction is implemented. Where the Committee was able to serve the editors, accounts of apparent miracles are well tempered—in other places, the usual misinformation is repeated. The cover advertises this very informative and intriguing volume with: "The world is full of amazing things: strange people, creatures, places, powers, prac- tices, miracles, facts, legends, frauds, objects, customs, religions, and every other phenomenon that anyone has ever wondered about." Inside, we come upon many genuine and fascinating items such as "killer bees," black holes, Druids, Tiahuanaco, and Oak Island.

  • Rethinking Subjectivity João Biehl, Byron Good, Arthur Kleinman
    31183_U01.qxd 9/15/06 2:29 PM Page 1 Introduction: Rethinking Subjectivity joão biehl, byron good, arthur kleinman This book is an extended conversation about contemporary forms of human experience and subjectivity. It examines the genealogy of what we consider to be the modern subject, and it inquires into the continuity and diversity of personhood across greatly diverse societies, including the ways in which inner processes are reshaped amid economic and political reforms, violence, and social suffering. It is an ethnographic conversation, with authors con- fronting specific forms of social life in particular settings, and it is a theo- retical conversation, exploring the debates and disciplinary disagreements about how we think and write about human agency today. The writings in this book suggest that contemporary social formations, with their particular ways of being and the theoretical frames available for analyzing them, have destabilized our observation, thinking, and writing about subjectivity. In editing this collection, we have sought to show the multiple ways in which scholars address the diverse phenomena we call sub- ject and subjectivity. Striving for a single analytic strategy would have been limiting and premature at best. This volume is thus exploratory, aiming to provide new directions for studies of subjectivity and intersubjectivity in today’s distinctive conditions. In the many settings in which anthropologists now work, the vagaries of modern life are undoing and remaking people’s lives in new and ominous ways. The subjects of our study struggle with the possibilities and dangers of economic globalization, the threat of endless violence and insecurity, and the new infrastructures and forms of political domination and resistance that lie in the shadows of grand claims of democratization and reform.
