Global Human Rights
Global human rights, writ large, impact the entire human condition. They span cultural, social, economic, ecological, political, and civic realms. They pertain to how people are treated, protected, and respected. They are interrelated, interdependent, and of importance to all people, yet in actuality—as they play out—do not apply equally to all people. They have not been formulated by representatives of all societies, have not been accepted by me…
Activity Patterns of Asmat Hunter-gatherers
Learning Applied Anthropology in Field Schools
This chapter illustrates how principles of applied anthropology can be learned through ethnographic or "cultural" field schools. Aside from a well-rounded classroom education, aspiring applied anthropologists ideally should have substantial "experience in the field" before graduating, either through individualized experiences (the more common approach), or through group experiences. The chapter focuses on the latter, and discusses how such field …

Flight and Integration
Although the integrated zone approach for planning and organizing the economic development of refugee settlements is not new, developmental assistance which includes the needs of the local population in the refugee affected areas has not been forthcoming. There is a growing consciousness regarding the relation between development and refugee problems. It is now widely acknowledged that local integration efforts cannot be effective unless they are…
Life and Death in New Guinea
Using a combination of comparative/historical and ethnographic approaches, the concepts of the “life-death continuum” and the cosmic “life force” are examined for the Asmat tribe of New Guinea. Primary attention is paid to data gathered in Irian Jaya (Indonesian New Guinea) in 1973–74 and 1979. The roles of magic and sorcery are examined in the context of death causation, as is the notion of societal equilibrium/disequilibrium. The symbolism of t…
