  • Malinowsky for today

    Open AccessFrederick H DamonARTICLEAnthropologica2023

    From the point of view of a contemporary Kula Ring ethnographer, this paper surveys Malinowski's heritage, sums up the current state of Kula Ring research, and asks of the status of the ethnographic research heritage Malinowski did much to define. All recent Kula Ring anthropologists partly define themselves with respect to Malinowski's tradition. And the resultsof their work over the last 50 years again made the region central to the discipline …

  • Experimental Voyages by Two Traditional Canoes of the Kula Area, Papua New Guinea, One Real and One Virtual, Provide Insights into the Study of Ancient Sailing Technology of the Pacific Ocean

    Open AccessLoughlin Dudley, Richard G J Flay et al.ARTICLEJournal of Pacific Archaeology2021

    We compare identical voyages by two traditional Kula sailing canoes in the Massim, Papua New Guinea. One voyage was made by a real canoe in 2002 and the other voyage by a virtual canoe, retrospectively in 2020. Both voyages were made in the same recorded weather. The sailing capability of the two canoes was closely matched. The simulated voyage establishes that theoretical modelling of canoe sailing performance can be realistic and applied to the…

  • Deep historical ecology

    Frederick H DamonARTICLEWorld Archaeology2016Citada por: 2Referencias: 57

    The timescape for this paper is human action across the changes configured through the Holocene. The landscapes it outlines contrast social action coming out of Western Europe with the very different management plans witnessed from India and China to Australia. This opening funnels into a focused view of the Kula Ring in Papua New Guinea understood as a particular realization of the Austronesian spread out of East Asia. Unlike in the Euro-America…

  • The Good, the Bad, and the Dead

    Open AccessFrederick H DamonARTICLESocial Analysis2016Referencias: 9

    This article is a thought exercise concerning the following observation: many societies define the good by means of the bad and often organize, wittingly or not, methods of destruction to instantiate the good. Such methods, sometimes dressed up as sacrifice, at other times as scapegoating, and still other times as the experience of necessity, always lead to a hierarchy. Whatever the means, destruction helps to organize social systems throughout t…

  • Labour Processes’ Across the Indo-Pacific

    Frederick H DamonARTICLECanberra Anthropology2012Citada por: 1Referencias: 15

    This paper initiates a comparative analysis of the labour process in three different social systems in order to shed light on the singularities of East Asian social forms. The point of departure for the project highlights the place of substitution central to the labour process in the West. There time's flow entails the replacement of human ingenuity by mechanical power and so distils into Western culture a fascination with the possibilities of su…

  • On the Order of Chaos

    Frederick H Damon, Mark S Mosko et al.BOOKOn the Order of Chaos2005

    Over the past two decades, “chaos theory” – the perception of order previously hidden in phenomena of apparent randomness and disorder – has fundamentally transformed the natural sciences. In recent years, numerous scholars in the social sciences and humanities have attempted to adapt the insights of chaos theory to their studies of human cultural and social systems. Several of the world’s leading anthropologists, such as Roy Wagner, Marshall Sah…

    Open AccessFrederick H DamonARTICLEL Homme2002Citada por: 15Referencias: 16

    Les objets précieux du kula : le problème de la valeur et la production des noms. - Cet article montre comment la production des biens précieux échangés dans le kula et, par le biais de leur circulation, l'établissement du renom des personnes, devient la forme de richesse prééminente pour les habitants de Muyuw (île de Woodlark, dans la partie nord-est de l'anneau du kula, en Papouasie-Nouvelle Guinée). La première partie de l'article décrit la c…

  • From regional relations to ethnic groups

    Frederick H DamonARTICLECanberra Anthropology2000Citada por: 2Referencias: 12

    L'A. soutient que ni le concept de groupe ethnique ni l'interpretation en termes de frontieres ethniques ne sont pertinents pour rendre compte du systeme social Kula en ce qu'il est representatif de la construction de la socialite dans la region indo-pacifique. Selon lui, ce type d'interpretation repose sur une philosophie politique de l'ordre social qui a constitue les fondements de l'Occident depuis plusieurs siecles. D'autre part, si les socie…
