The Family Herds
Common sense' and 'governmentality
Early paradigms in political anthropology identified formal government councils as a subject for cross-cultural comparison (structural functionalism) or as a political resource for goal-orientated actors (transactionalism). Recent concerns with power and regulation can also profit from a focus on local-level government councils by using them to explore the conceptual and empirical linkages between 'common sense' and 'governmentality'. In this art…

Cross-Cultural Interviewing
A Sentimental Economy
On the fringe of western Europe, yet fully integrated into the capitalist market, the rural economy of the west of Ireland seems to provide a fascinating object of analysis to the student of European folk cultures. This book concentrates on a particular aspect of that rural economy: the social organization and cultural construction of work in a community of family farms. The concept of work, which is primarily farm work, is taken here as a very e…

Approaching the Past
In recent years the study of has become a central area of inquiry within anthropology. While classical anthropology focused on the present, current approaches seek to do history by using a variety of conceptual and methodological approaches. Approaching the Past is a highly provocative and original volume that examines the issues, themes, and difficulties emerging out of the new anthropological concern with history. Anchoring the discussion with …

Rules and Processes
Rules and Processes is at once a compelling essay in social theory and a pathbreaking ethnography of dispute in an African society. On the basis of a sensitive study of the Tswana of southern Africa, John Comaroff and Simon Roberts challenge most of the orthodoxies of anthropology. They argue that the social world, and the dispute processes that occur within it, are given form and meaning by a dialectical relationship between sociocultural struct…

Negotiations as a Mode of Dispute Settlement
In a previous essay I sought to make a distinction, not an original one, between two processes of dispute settlement: adjudication, and negotiations (Gulliver, 1969: 17). This was not intended as an absolute distinction, for clearly there are certain features common to both. But I was emphasizing what seems to be a key factor: the existence or absence of a third-party adjudicator. Whilst recognizing that this distinction is not acceptable to some…

The Family Estate in Africa
The Karamajong Cluster
Opening ParagraphWithin the Nilo-Hamitic group of tribes in East Africa is a sub-group, the tribes of which speak closely related dialects. So close are these dialects that a native speaker of any one can understand a speaker of any other. In the normal intercourse between the peoples this does in fact happen constantly. Linguistically this group of dialects might be called the Teso Dialect Cluster, after the tribe of that name

THE JIE ARE ONE OF SEVEN TRIBES comprising the 'Karamajong Cluster' (Gulliver 1952). They number about 18,ooo, and live in the Karamoja District of north-eastern Uganda. Their country is about go by 70 miles in extent, and most of it is utilized as grazing-grounds, for the permanent settlements are restricted to a rough circle with a six miles radius round Kotido. They have a mixed economy of agriculture and transhumance pastoralism, but with a v…

Land shortage, social change, and social conflict in East Africa
Social conflict to some degree is inevitable in any society for it is inconceivable that in the real world the whole network of social roles and relationships and the ideas and values associated with them should be so well adjusted that conflict is removed. Utopia remains a literary and political dream. In situations of rapid social change the degree of conflict is likely to be greater for many of the established modes of mutual adjustment and re…

Incentives in Labor Migration
To anthropologists and economists, as well as to local employers and governments, the subject of large-scale labor migration has long been one of great interest and concern particularly in the eastern and southern regions of Africa. References and publications can be traced back over many years and the earliest definitive study was probably that by Schapera in Bechuanaland in 1943. It is assumed therefore that the phenomenon of labor migration in…

Structural Dichotomy and Jural Processes among the Arusha of Northern Tanganyika
Opening ParagraphIn his ethnographic survey of the Masai Huntingford remarks that 'there is a constant dualism in the structure of Masai groups, largely expressed in terms of cattle colour. It is found not only in an antagonistic setting, as when cattle are divided after a raid, but also in the sections into which a tribe may be divided.' He gives examples only of major divisions of the Kisongo and Wuasingishu Masai and the Samburu which, at leas…
