Commonly consumed foods are roughly 80percent plant, and 20 percent animal products. Cookingis common. Eating includes one or two main daily mealswith occasional snacking.

Muslim Palawan
Three significant forms of difference crosscut ethnic boundaries within the diverse population of 75,000-100,000 Muslims who presently reside in southern Palawan. These include differences in length of residence and sense of place, in how Islam is known and practiced, and in acceptance of the Philippine state and associated institutions of power. The presence of these and other social differences between Muslims in Palawan makes both ethnic and r…
Environmental reconfi gurations and livelihood transformations in rural Southeast Asia
Degradation and reconfiguration of natural resources in coastal and upland Southeast Asia have set in motion a characteristic process of rural livelihood diversification with significant implications for gender roles and economic well-being. Drawing primarily on case material from the Philippines, this paper explores the transformations in household economies that have accompanied the search for more profitable and sustainable livelihoods and sug…
Ethnic Differences, Islamic Consciousness, and Muslim Social Integration in the Philippines
This study of the close to 100,000 Muslims of diverse geographical and ethnolinguistic origins inhabiting Palawan Island in the southwest Philippines reveals the locally variable and historically contingent nature of the integration of Muslims with non-Muslims and their interaction with the Philippine state and helps explain why the Islamic resurgence of the 1970s and 1980s took hold in some parts of that nation but not in other parts. Ethnicity …

Environmentalism, Development, and Participation on Palawan Island, Philippines
On Palawan Island, Philippines, known for its high biodiversity and dynamic environmental movement, development, participation, and conservation have been enveloped by the twin discourses of environmentalism and sustainable development. This essay considers environmental policy on Palawan and several case studies of sustainable development projects that emphasize community-based resource management (CBRM). Recent critiques suggest that CBRM has n…
Dentition of the Batak people of Palawan Island, the Philippines
Introduction The Batak are an indigenous people of Palawan Island, the Philippines (Krieger 1942, Eder 1987; see Fig. 1.2, p. 6), who speak an Austronesian language related to that of other peoples in the Palawan region and classified with the Visayan group of Philippine languages. The Batak closely resemble other so-called ‘Philippine Negritos’, both in their mobile hunting and gathering lifestyle and in their physical attributes (short stature,…
Gender Relations and Household Economic Planning in the Rural Philippines
This paper lies at the intersection of the considerable scholarly literatures on household livelihood strategies and on the role of women in Southeast Asia. Focused ethnographically on rural Philippine households engaged primarily in various combinations of fishing and farming activities, and analytically on how gender relations figure in the decisions that the co-heads of these households make regarding their economic plans for the future, it co…

A Generation Later
A Generation Later moves beyond analytical models of rural change that focus on the peasant/agricultural aspect of rural communities and makes a convincing case for an approach that integrates farm and nonfarm occupations and does justice to the conditions of occupational multiplicity that characterize, to an increasing extent, many of the rural communities in Asia. In this context, it challenges conventional (and simplistic) "peasant to proletar…
Hunters and Farmers
Infrastructures are material forms that allow for the possibility of exchange over space. They are the physical networks through which goods, ideas, waste, power, people, and finance are trafficked. In this article I trace the range of anthropological ...Read More
Family Farming and Household Enterprise in a Philippine Community, 1971-1988
The tenacity of family-farming householdsin agrarian economies experiencing capitalist penetration has long figured in a debate about the ultimate consequences of such penetration for agrarian social structure. On the one hand are those who argue that, while various forces may work to speed or delay the process, the most likely long-term outcome of the capitalization of agriculture is that envisioned by Lenin: polarization of the countryside into…

Agricultural Intensification and Labor Productivity in a Philippine Vegetable Gardening Community
This paper concerns the evolution of commercial vegetable gardening as a source of household livelihood in a Philippine farming community during 1971-1988. This period was locally marked by dramatic population growth and agricultural intensification, the latter evidenced by a growing emphasis on gardening at the expense of more land-extensive agricultural systems, and by a two-to threefold increase in labor invested per unit of land in gardening …

The Impact of Subsistence Change on Mobility and Settlement Pattern in a Tropical Forest Foraging Economy
I critically examine archeological presumptions that a continuum from "mobility" to "sedentism" underlies the evolutionary transition from hunting-gathering to agriculture. An ethnographic case from the Philippines shows that some foraging societies undergoing subsistence change may become more mobile as they near or cross the threshold to sedentary life. A distinction between residential and logistical mobility does not account for this finding,…

Who Shall Succeed?
This book records the emergence and institutionalization of social inequality in San Jose, a pioneer farming village located on Palawan Island in the Philippines. Early chapters reconstruct the historical circumstances surrounding San Jose's settlement and growth under conditions of relative equality of opportunity. The community's development is examined in detail through the experiences of eight migrant farmers, all self-made men some conspicuo…
