Show me your CDIB: Blood Quantum and Indian Identity among Indian People of Oklahoma
Discourse concerning the legitimacy of claims of Indian identity characterize much of the debate in Indian country today. Any legitimate claim to an Indian identity rests, in part, on tribal membership, which requires certification by the U.S. government in the form of a Certified Degree of Indian Blood (CDIB) and a tribal membership identification. Once a person establishes biological heritage with the CDIB, the blood quantum-full, 1/2, 1/256, a…
Being Indian in Northeast Oklahoma
Among Native American peoples the complex issue of social identity and community often arises in terms of asserting a tribal rather than an Indian identity. That pattern may not hold true, however; for the eight tribes now located in the northeast corner of Oklahoma (NEO). All of these tribes were removed to the area in the mid-nineteenth century; each suffered from the European American policies intended to disintegrate their culture and a simil…

A Short Discussion of Discourse: The 1988 President's Session Overview
Logical Assumptions in Contemporary Discourse Analysis
Scholars from anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and linguistics, as well as other academic disciplines approach the questions of discourse analysis. While there is wide variability in these approaches, most agree that internal coherence is one of the most important features of discourse and that some variety of the propositional calculus is the most appropriate means for accounting for that coherence. I present data that suggests that proposit…

Theory in Ethno-Logic
Because thought processes underlie all human action and can distinguish one culture from another, the social sciences must face the problem of determining how people think. Reasoning can be viewed as abstract and not connected to any particular human activity, as it is in philosophical logic, or it can be seen as a process in a particular linguistic, social and cultural setting, as it is in ethno-logic. Recently anthropologists, developmental psy…
Navajo Syllogisms: Structures and Use
Modern cognitive anthropology has shifted its interests from analyzing groups of related lexemes to analyzing discourse with emphasis on the schemata that provide coherence to speech. Logical inference patterns such as syllogisms play an important role in these schemata and have received attention in the recent literature. The results of an investigation into the structural validity and folkloric use of Navajo syllogisms are reported in this arti…

Syllogistic Reasoning and Taxonomic Semantics
The patterns of human reasoning have been a matter of debate in the field of anthropology for almost its entire history, but little of the discussion has been translated into empirical study. The syllogism offers a good opportunity to study universal and particular aspects of human logic because its logic is well known, and folk taxonomies are found in all human languages. In this study the syllogism as explicated in philosophical logic was used …
