Political Resistance in a Contemporary Hunter-Gatherer Society
The northeastern Athapaskan-speaking Bearlake Indians prefer experiential knowledge and primary epistemic reasons in the justification of beliefs. Bearlakers base local authority on such knowledge and justification, the epistemological and political significance of which derives historically from their hunter-gatherer mode of production. In the 1970s, the association between primary knowledge and legitimate authority affected Bearlake opinion abo…
A Hopi Social History
All anthropologists and archaeologists seek to answer basic questions about human beings and society. Why do people behave the way they do? Why do patterns in the behavior of individuals and groups sometimes persist for remarkable periods of time? Why do patterns in behavior sometimes change? A Hopi Social History explores these basic questions in a unique way. The discussion is constructed around a historically ordered series of case studies fro…
The Legitimation of Beliefs in a Hunter-Gatherer Society
Anthropologists sometimes suggest that northeastern Athapaskan-speaking Indians have distinctive ideas about the relationships among individual autonomy, knowledge, and power. One feature of northeastern Athapaskan culture, as realized among the Bearlake Athapaskans, is the significance attributed to experiential knowledge and primary epistemic reasons in the justification of beliefs. Individual authority is based on and legitimated by primary kn…

To understand these principles it is first necessary to analyze the Bear Lake system of kinship classification - the description of which requires use of structural semantic analysis. Such a description is productive and accounts for the ability of Bea…

Speaking to 'Relatives-through-Marriage
Among the Northeastern Athapaskan-speaking Bear Lake Indians, affinal relatives speak to one another using a distinctive speech style. Particularly important is the use in direct conversation of an "affinal index," consisting of a shift from second person singular to second person plural pronominal forms. A cultural interpretation of the meaning of this speech style requires reference to norms of fundamental significance among the Bear Lakers. Th…
