Lead Mining and the Survival and Demise of French in Rural Missouri
Old Mines is just about all that remains of French Missouri, a remnant of eighteenth century French and Spanish colonial ambitions. Rich lead deposits attracted the early French to what is now Washington county. The demand for hand dug lead (tuf) and later barite permitted French miners to continue their mode of production with its linguistic and cultural complementarities until World War II. Since, the Missouri French have been gradually disappe…
The French Frontier of Settlement in Louisiana: Some Observations on Cultural Change in Mamou Prairie
Changes in Cajun culture of the Southwestem Prairies of Louisiana can best be explained through the ethnohistorical study of pre-1952 cotton sharecropping communities, and the subsequent displacement of the tenant farmers to service centres. Isolation of the sharecroppers was culturally-reinforced by a strong egalitarian ideology. From this milieu, Cajun music emerged as a marker of an indigenous Louisiana francophone society. The decline of cott…
Rediscovering place: Experiences of a quadriplegic anthropologist
Cyberspace is an ‘archetypal place’(Lifchez) for disabled fieldworkers enhancing opportunities for fieldwork. This article uses a concept of place similar to that used in French‐speaking Louisiana. In this approach, ‘place’ overcomes barriers of accessibility through extended ‘weak’ networks and transnational diaspora. In cyberspace, ‘invisible’ communities are defined only by text and narrative. Yet the boundaries of cyberspace communities are c…

Constructing Ethnicity: Myth of Return and Modes of Exclusion among Israelis in Toronto
Drawing upon data from ninety intensive interviews and from participatory observations of various social gatherings of Israelis living in Toronto, this study explores the role of the desire to return to the mother‐country in the production of a distinctive ethnic community. Although plans to return rarely materialize, they do contribute to both the individual’s psychological well‐being and the group’s need to defy assimilation. On a personal leve…

Studying Voluntary Associations as Adaptive Mechanisms: A Review of Anthropological Perspectives [and Comments and Reply]
In this paper an attempt is made to review selected anthropological studies of voluntary associations, in particular, and common-interest associations, in general. The aim is to show how these groups have been studied as adaptive mechanisms in situations of social, cultural, and technological change, especially in those types of change involving rapid urban growth and large-scale migrations of rural populations to towns and cities. The review is …

Social Borders: Definitions of Diversity [and Comments and Reply]
Discovery of cultural diversity was catalytic for the development of anthropology, and diversity has remained a justification for anthropology as a distinct way of studying man. Paradoxically, a new kind of diversity in the range of societies studied by anthropologists is now a severe challenge to established concepts and methods. Much of this new diversity results from an increase in the numbers and kinds of social differentiation anthropologist…
