Moonwalk Memories
In the Field
The authors draw on their 40 years as anthropologists and educators to illustrate through a narrative-style text and photographs what it is like to be an anthropologist and to “do” anthropology—the problems encountered as well as the pleasures and rewards of living in other cultures and learning from other people. Through accounts of their lives and work in varied cultural settings, the authors describe the many forms fieldwork can take, the kind…

Introduction to Tourism
This special issue of Practicing Anthropology draws together an exciting and diverse set of papers and presentations on the topic of tourism written by both veteran anthropologists and graduate students. The study of tourism is no longer on the periphery of anthropology. Tourism's far-reaching connections and consequences for the tourist, the toured, and the anthropologist who studies them are clearly recognized today. The SfAA has long been a le…

Rural-Urban Difference and Student Fieldwork
This article compares the research and field experiences of students studying in rural villages with those studying in a city. The student subjects are participants in two anthropology field training programs (rural Barbados and urban Tasmania) designed to give them a hands-on experience of anthropological fieldwork. The comparison of rural and urban field schools reveals that the students doing fieldwork in the city have: 1. greater difficulty i…

Barbados's Amerindian Past
Les fouilles archeologiques sur le site de Chancery Lane a Barbade permettent de mieux connaitre la population prehistorique : population horticole plantant du cassava dans les clairieres, vivant sur la cote et s'alimentant de poissons et de coquillages. Les Amerindiens vivaient dans des maisons communes ou les espaces pour hommes et pour femmes etaient distincts. Ceremonies et rituels etaient importants et ils croyaient en une vie apres la mort.…
Elbridge Warren Merrill
Elbridge W. Merrill photographed Sitka, Alaska and its Tlingit and Euro-American populations with sensitivity and thoroughness for 30 years between 1899 and 1929. Although Merrill's work was well known within Alaska during his day, it is virtually unknown today outside of Sitka. Yet Merrill and his work deserve to be recognized. For the Tlingit it was a time of significant transition.1 The pressures to assimilate—coming from missionaries, wage la…
Gender and Migration
Significant gender differences were found in the satisfaction and readjustment of return migrants to Barbados, Ireland, and Newfoundland. In all three societies, women were less satisfied than men to be home. The greater dissatisfaction among women appears to stem from their limited employment opportunities and a range of social factors

Groups That Don't Want In
Small, endogamous populations of artisans, traders, and entertainers have existed for centuries within complex societies, competing successfully with permanently established businesses. Their organizational flexibility and willingness to move and to switch occupations enables them to fill gaps in the host economy and exploit marginal opportunities. Other attributes that make them successful include their minimal overhead, use of wage-free househo…
