Connecting urban green infrastructure and environmental justice in South Africa
Green Infrastructure (GI) connects across a city's urban fabric and exhibits multiple meanings. It inevitably ties to questions about environmental justice. In South Africa, the historical legacy of colonialism and apartheid has left deep scars and the fragmentation of people and places. The justice issues surrounding urban GI are many, complex and unpredictable. They include insecurity, contested access to urban parks, differing perceptions of e…
Transdisciplinary approaches assessing unmanaged urban green spaces reveal benefits for biodiversity and people
Rapid urbanization is projected for African cities at the cost of urban green space, which could jeopardize biodiversity and human benefits. Studies focusing specifically on human–green space relationships in the Global South are lacking, and the validity of extrapolating results from studies in the Global North remains questionable and cannot provide local context-specific design solutions. This study combines methods and perspectives from ecolo…
A life course approach to understanding associations between natural environments and mental well-being for the Danish blood donor cohort
Residential green space in childhood is associated with lower risk of psychiatric disorders from adolescence into adulthood
Urban residence is associated with a higher risk of some psychiatric disorders, but the underlying drivers remain unknown. There is increasing evidence that the level of exposure to natural environments impacts mental health, but few large-scale epidemiological studies have assessed the general existence and importance of such associations. Here, we investigate the prospective association between green space and mental health in the Danish popula…
Mode of Subsistence and Folk Biological Taxonomy [and Comments and Reply]
There are significant differences between the folk biological taxonomy and nomenclature of hunter-gatherers and that of small-scale agriculturalists. While foragers possess sizable inventories of labeled plant and animal classes, small-scale farmers tend to have inventories that are considerably larger. Also, binomial names, such as English blue oak and shingle oak, are common in folk taxonomies of cultivators but rare in those of hunter-gatherer…
Women's Status in Egalitarian Society
The analysis of women's status in egalitarian society is inseparable from the analysis of egalitarian social-economic structure as a whole, and concepts based on the hierarchical structure of our society distort both. To see relations of power and property that characterize our society as present in band societies, although extremely weak, obscures the qualitatively different relations that obtained when, in place of dyadic lines of dependency, e…
Food Taboos, Diet, and Hunting Strategy
The issue of food prohibitions on such Amazonian game animals as deer is examined from an ecological perspective, in contrast to previous symbolic or structuralist views on this subject. Examined in conjunction with settlement pattern, technology, animal behavior, and habitat productivity, which together determine the food-extraction potential of a population, the avoidance of certain inherently edible species by characterizing them as inebible i…
A Worldwide Evolutionary Classification of Cultures by Subsistence Systems [and Comments and Reply]
Comparative ethnology now provides the data by which all known cultures can be usefully arrayed in an evolutionary series on the basis of their subsistence systems. The isight is an old one, but the massing of evidence about expressive,as well as societal and ecological, patterns which the computer makes possible lends new weight to an evolutionary treatment of cultural variation. The main data for our experiment consisted of the codings for food…
