Toward A General Theory of Directed Value Accumulation and Institutional Development
The Rhythms of Drinking in a Peruvian Coastal Mestizo Community
A result of field research in Virú, Peru in 1947-48 and in 1960, this paper describes traditional drinking patterns in a peasant village. The primary beverage in Virú is chicha, made from maize. A nineteenth-century recipe and present methods of manufacture are compared. Holmberg describes daily drinking patterns, drinking at annual religious festivals, and patterns of alcohol use at the ritual celebration of life cycle events. Consumption of chi…

The Process of Accelerating Community Change
The Peruvian Indian community of Vicos had existed in a state of relative cultural stability for a very long time prior to the intervention of the Cornell Peru Project. So long had this stability endured that the Vicosinos and other Indians of the neighborhood had developed subculture spatially and socially isolated from modern Western civilization

Land Tenure and Planned Social Change: A Case from Vicos, Peru
In 1952, Cornell University, in collaboration with the Instituto Indigenista Peruano, sublet, for a period of five years, an hacienda called Vicos, a Quechua-speaking community of about 2,000 inhabitants located in the highlands of northcentral Peru, for the purpose of conducting a research and development program on the modernization process. One of the principal developmental outcomes of this program to date has been a shift in the status of Vi…

The Research and Development Approach to the Study of Change
What I have to say on the question of values in actionstems largely from a rather deep and personal involvement with this question for the past five years. In 1952, quite by design, although unexpectedly and suddenly, I found myself in the delicate position of having assumed the role of patrón (in the name of Cornell University) of a Peruvian hacienda, called Vicos, for a period of five years, for the purpose of conducting a research and developm…

Participant Intervention in the Field
Traditionally, anthropologists have approached the study of culture change from the perspective of the outside observer of a naturally on-going process. By contrast, few attempts have been made to approach the study of change from the perspective of the intervening participant; in other words, as both the designer and activator of a socio-cultural process. It is the purpose of this paper to explore some of the potentialities of this latter method…
