Will make a good Admiral’: A reassessment of Captain Scott's naval career
In his book Scott and Amundsen (1979) Roland Huntford described Captain Robert Falcon Scott R.N. as ‘not well thought of in the Service’ and ‘an obscure, rather dull torpedo lieutenant with mediocre prospects’. A myth has subsequently arisen that Scott was forced into Antarctic exploration as his only route to naval promotion. In reality, Scott was an extremely able officer held in high regard by his naval contemporaries; he was on course for pro…

Some of these Bootleggers, They Make Pretty Good Stuff: Love and Theft from the Dylan Underground
Bob Dylan is easily the most bootlegged artist in the world. This essay briefly discusses the Dylan bootlegging phenomenon in general, than attempts to group bootlegs by performance type into five categories. For each category, the essay offers and describes a small number of standout examples that, taken together, give a far more complete view of the work of this artist than the body of his commercially released work does alone

Storm blowing from paradise: Social protest and oppositional ideology in popular Hawaiian music
In the early 1970s, in the American Island State of Hawaii, popular music began a transformation that was, to some extent, similar in form to what occurred on the American mainland ten to fifteen years earlier, when popular music first merged with the civil rights movement and then with the anti-Vietnam movement. Hawaiian popular musicians, reacting to the commercially slick music of the tourist trade and the Wai Ki Ki nightclubs, reached back to…
Beyond the reef: Role conflict and the professional musician in Hawaii
There have been, since Becker's pioneering work in the field of jazz (Becker 1951), a small handful of empirical studies that have focused on the popular musician in society - most specifically with respect to the conflicts such musicians can feel between what they want to play and what is demanded of them by their audience and the larger commercial market. Becker pointed out the vast differences between the expectations of the audience, those of…

Social groupings in organized crime: The case of La Nuestra Familia
The paper addresses the question of organization in criminal groups. Organized crime appears to consist of highly organized families loosely linked to one another only by common interests. It is argued that these groups may be an underworld reflection of overworld pluralism and may tend to organize along racial and ethnic lines
