Atomism and Social Integration
In evolutionist as well as "developmental" anthropological literature, social atomism has been linked with internal social conflict. Applied in particular to "peasant society," the notion of an "atomistic-type society," in which interpersonal conflict and antagonism are assumed to be a prevailing part of the "normative order," has been widely accepted. In fact social atomism--understood as a social order which recognizes no collective allegiance …

An Economic Analysis of Eminent Domain
A theoretical analysis of land assembly with and without eminent domain concludes that, contrary to traditional assumptions, eminent domain is not necessarily a more efficient institution than the free market for consolidating many contiguous but separately owned parcels into a single ownership unit. In practice, prices paid under eminent domain may differ systematically from the "fair market value" standard, depending on court costs of buyer and…

Sense' and 'Intention' in Max Weber's Theory of Social Action
Ambiguities in Weber's theory of social action have been compounded in translation into English. American commentators have generally given a psychological twist to Weber's concepts of 'intended sense' and 'understanding,' in terms of an 'imputation of motive.' Weber, on the other hand, distinguishes between the intended sense of an action and the actor's motivation. As a sociologist, he is interested, not in the imputation of motive to the indiv…

The Song Tradition of Tristan da Cunha
"What Became of "Little Powder-Monkey Jim: Additional Song Material from Tristan da Cunha
IN 1938, WHEN I FIRST VISITED Tristan da Cunha as a member of a Norwegian scientific expedition under the leadership of Dr. Erling Christophersen, I wrote down a few traditional songs that were frequently performed for entertainment on the island.' Some of the older songs were then already in an advanced state of corruption. But most of the songs were fairly well preserved specimens of a nineteenth-century vintage, witness to the fact that they w…
Economic Development and Conflicting Values: A Social Experiment in Tristan da Cunha1
In the small, utopian community of Tristan da Cunha, the core values of equality, anarchy, and individual integrity find expression and reinforcement in an intricate system of selective reciprocity that takes the form of mutual aid, services, and gifts in a network of overlapping and interlocking personal relationships. This pattern of selective reciprocity is closely tied in with activities connected with the traditional subsistence economy.Afte…

The Peasant Movement in Norway: A Study in Class and Culture
rN ALL parts of the Western World, indeed wherever Western civilization is making its influence felt, the increasing mechanization in technical culture, i iparticularly in means of transportation and communication, has brought about a radical change in the ecological situation of the rural locality group. From a rather stable condition of relative isolation and economic, social, and cultural self-dependence, the rural community has been thrown in…

Social Adjustment among Wisconsin Norwegians
FROM the point of view that culture, in the broadest sense of the word, is the total adjustment of human society to its physical and social environment, it is evident that no specific form of culture can be transplanted from one environment to the other without a more or less radical change. Unless the two environments are exactly alike in every respect-and no two environments will be found to be exactly alike-the migrating group will have to re-…

Why is the Mainland of Orkney called Pomona
A note from Professor Peter Andreas Munch, an Honorary Member of the Society, that was read out loud at the meeting on December 8, 1851. It describes the Professor's investigations into how the mainland of Orkney came to be called Pomona by George Buchanan when it's name in Old Norse was Hrossey. He traces the misnomer back to a line in Solinus. Professor Munch is challenged by another fellow, who believes Solinus is describing Zetland rather tha…

Cultural Contacts in an Isolated Community Tristan Da Cunha
Two hundred persons live in almost complete isolation on the island of Tristan da Cunha. Though of various ethnic origins, they have a social order which is distinctive and consistent. This is because for historic reasons it is predominantly of one culture, namely, British; the tradition of an equalitarian co-operative society lives on from the early days when a deed of partnership governed the relations of the first settlers. The people have dev…
