The Academic–Practitioner Relationship
Alcohol Studies and Anthropology
This collection of four books, published over the past decade, regarding anthropology and alcohol (and other drugs) studies continues to increase the value of anthropology in understanding the relationship between human societies and psychoactive substances. Pierre Bourdieu, Sidney Mintz, Victor Turner, and Eric Wolf are those scholars whose work is most centrally drawn upon in these manuscripts for their theoretical and methodological acumen. Au…
Responding to Community Needs Through Linking Academic and Practicing Anthropology
We argue in this article that applied anthropology offers a compelling model for conducting engaged scholarship in higher education and developing an engaged scholarship platform. As colleges and universities increasingly endorse meaningful ways to address critical needs of their wider communities, anthropology faculty, students, and alumni can lead the way in forging successful and effective partnerships and grappling with crucial community need…

Career Subjectivities in U.S. Anthropology
This article explores shifts in anthropological career opportunities and subjectivities in the United States since World War II. Survey and interview data reveal a lively discourse surrounding the changing job market in which practicing anthropology outside of the academy is often identified as a secondary occupational choice. We argue that the nonacademic practitioner's subjectivity is defined in contrast to (and by) academically based anthropol…
A Review of Tenure and Promotion Guidelines in Higher Education
Anthropology as a discipline over the past four decades has attracted increasingly more students studying at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. At the same time, the career expectations of many students have shifted from a primary focus on full‐time academic positions to a multitude of types of positions in the public and private sectors. Many of these positions are in the area of practicing, applied, and public interest anthropology. An…

Overview
Encyclopedia of World Cultures
Strategies for Social Mobility
Anthropological research on culture change and continuity all too rarely narrows in on particular family dynamics as a means for describing and explaining cultural transmission and transformation. Myrna Silverman's study is a welcome exception to this generalization, thereby making it a special contribution to understanding ethnicity as a cultural process. Her focus is, of course, upon the Jewish community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In the 1990…

Morphological variation and population structure on the island of Korčula, Yugoslavia
A comparison of head and body morphology on the ecologically uniform island of Korčula provides a good example of the balance that occurs in microevolution between selective pressures toward homogenization and selective inertia toward heterogeneity. thirty-eight measurements were made from a sample of 471 males and 526 females. Head variables, being more eco-stable than body variables, remain relatively more different between two distinct populat…
Isolation by distance on the Island of Korčula
Within the framework of holistic anthropological investigations of the rural populations on the Island of Korčula, various measures of biological distances between eight villages were estimated (Mahalanobis' D 2 for anthropometric, physiological, and dermatoglyphic traits); socio‐cultural similarities and distances were determined (kinship coefficient estimated from migrational data and Hemming similarity measure estimated from linguistic data). …
Contrasts in Demographic Structure and Linguistic Variation on the Island of Korčula and the Pelješac Peninsula, Yugoslavia
Around 800 A.D. the Adriatic Island of Korčula and adjacent Pelješac Peninsula commenced upon distinct courses in population movement, the results of which are evident today in demographic structure and linguistic patterns. This divergence encompasses contrasting experiences in political control, land tenure, economic development, epidemics, and physical-social isolation. Korčula and Pelješac fell under different political-economic spheres of inf…
Isolation by distance in Middle Dalmatia—Yugoslavia
Parameters of Malécot's isolation‐by‐distance model are estimated for biological (anthropometric head and body dimensions, morphometric dimensions of metacarpal bones, quantitative and qualitative dermatoglyphic traits, and physiological/cardiorespiratory/variables) and linguistic distances and migrational kinship on the island of Korčula and the Pelješac peninsula in Middle Dalmatia, Croatia, Yugoslavia. Resulting parameters and the fit of the m…
Family Rituals
Family rituals, consisting of celebrations, traditions, and patterned family interactions, are defined and illustrated in this paper. The power of ritual practice in families is explained by three underlying processes - transformation, communication, and stabilization - concepts whose roots lie in anthropology and ethology. We propose that all families struggle with finding a suitable role for rituals in their collective lives but their actual ac…
Alcohol and Ethnography
The modern ethnographic literature on alcohol tends to underestimate problems due to drinking. This "problem deflation" probably reflects a concurrence of various assumptions, methods, and theoretical orientations. Functionalist assumptions direct attention more to the gains than to the losses involved in drinking. The pleasures of drinking are more easily observed, given the ethnographer's focus on the everyday and the social, than the private p…
