An Action Anthropologist Looks Back to Chicago’s Skid Row in the 1950s
In the early 1950s an interstate highway cut through Chicago's West Madison Street. or what was better known as Skid Row. By the mid- 1950s, the city had secured funding from the urban structures that served as hotels, at least part of the year, for the "homeless." In 1957, city officials contracted with the National Opinion Research Center to determine. what kind of housing the homeless men would prefer

Technology and Politics in the Ecology of the Sahel
Recent technological and political changes in the Sahel resemble earlier innovations that have failed to increase production or achieve equity in distribution, but perceived needs for large-scale changes remain, based on numerous misperceptions of what occurred in the famine of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Drought, large numbers of deaths, and decimation of cattle herds have been stereotyped to justify large capital-intensive development proje…
The Evolution of Indian Leadership on the Great Plains, 1750-1950
TO LOOK AT 200 YEARS of political organization on the Great Plains requires that we use the methods of ethnohistory for most of the first 100 years. I understand these methods to consist of essentially two steps. One, we simply project the present back onto the past, hoping to filter out of our projection whatever it is that was caused by contact with current events-usually meaning a situation of acculturation-or the presence of a dominant societ…

Social Responses During Severe Food Shortages and Famine [and Comments and Reply]
Although emergency food shortages and famines have been a prominent part of human experience for thousands of years and recur somewhere on our planet almost annually, data describing behavioral and organizational responses are few and scattered. Generalizations, when not speculative, tend to be vague and frequently contradictory. Practical, humanistic, and scientific concern with how people respond when overtaken by nutritional catastrophe provid…

Ancient Society and Morgan's Kinship Theory 100 Years After [and Comments and Reply]
The synchronic, antievolutionary approach to kinship has made it impossible to grasp its nature and define it adequately. Understanding of the phenomenon is tobe found in the implications of Morgan's distinction between the classificatory and descriptive systems of kinship. These systems are based respectively on the tribal and family organizations, each giving rise to a different notion of kinship: one as recognition of common identity in a mate…

Development by Grantsmanship: Economic Planning on the Lower Brule Sioux Reservation
For nearly 100 years the Bureau of Indian Affairs has expended large sums on Indian reservations for subsistence and agricultural development. A review of this expenditure for the Lower Brule Sioux Reservation shows that this pattern has resulted in poverty and unemployment. In 1950 the tribal council and Bureau of Indian Affairs began to consider investment that would create employment opportunities, but BIA control and other barriers prevented …

Value Themes of the Native American Tribalistic Movement Among the South Dakota Sioux
In 1967 and the years following, many Sioux were beginning to question that assimilation into various social strata of Anglo American society was inevitable, and there was a tendency toward identification with the Sioux "tribal heritage." This tribalistic movement, the local expression of a general movement among Native Americans in Canada and the United States, appears to be having a profound effect on the values of the Sioux. It represents a cu…

Contemporary Migration and Culture Change on Two Dakota Reservations
Two studies were made by the author to validate the conclusion of earlier writers that while the more acculturated Indians left the reservation, a reservoir of traditional culture-carriers remained behind.After consideration of such factors as use of language, expressed white values, degree of Indian blood, and degree of education it is concluded that the acculturation of migrants is greater than that of non-migrants. It was also found that the r…
Manual for Kinship Analysis
Originally published in 1964 by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, this volume has been used by more than 50,000 students as an introduction to classifying and analyzing the kinship systems of the world. This second edition introduces in a simple, step-by-step style the methods of componential analysis as well as determining the structure of Iroquois, Crow-Omaha, and other kinship systems. A good supplemental text for Introductory Anthropology courses
