The Microdemographic Community-Study Approach
Survey methods have been criticized for producing unreliable, invalid data and for failing to provide contextual information to test complex causal hypotheses. We discuss a technique that combines survey and ethnographic methods at every stage of the data collection process to overcome these shortcomings. We use ethnographic and survey evidence to show how the combined approach reduces coverage errors, nonresponse errors and measurement errors ar…
Family organization and the wage labor transition in a Tamang community of Nepal
Darwinian Transitions
This note contrasts John Caldwells wealth flows theory of fertility decline with an alternative approach to explaining the demographic transition advanced by Paul Turke based on the assumptions of work in sociobiology. Caldwells general theory fits quite well with known empirical patterns whereas Turkes model is contradicted by empirical studies. Moreover while sociobiological considerations of demographic transition are valuable in drawing atten…
Elementary Structures in the Nepal Himalaya
The relationships organized by marriage and kinship in small scale societies have long been a mainstay of anthropological approaches to society. These approaches have, however, varied in contentious ways through the years. Some have stressed adherence to positive rules of marriage and behavior embedded in kinship terminologies (Levi-Strauss 1969 [1949]); others have stressed social organization as an outcome of statistical patterns of behavior (M…

This paper examines the influence of social and economic change on family structure and relationships: How do such economic and social transformations as industrialization, urbanization, demographic change, the expansion of education, and the long-term growth of income influence the family? We take a comparative and historical approach, reviewing the experiences of three major sociocultural regions: the West, China, and South Asia. Many of the ch…

Rural punjabi social organization and marriage timing strategies in Pakistan
Using data from the Asian Marriage Survey and ethnographic material for the Punjab and South Asia we examine the contribution of social organization and marriage processes to the explanation of female marriage age in rural Pakistan. The perspective is that marriage constitutes an alliance-building strategy involving whole households and patrilines and that kinship distance between families dowry values landed status of families and direction of w…
