Visions and Revisions of Reality
Varying perceptions of gender, sex, and sexuality are investigated, using several examples, from the Pokot of East Africa to the Tewa Indians in New Mexico. The role that labels play in the acquisition of gender identity is also explored; and the influence of Cartesian dualism is challenged, suggesting a need to expand Euro-American conceptions of gender

The North American Berdache [and Comments and Reply]
The status of berdache among North American Indians was filled by persons, usually male, who remained members of their biological gender but assumed important social characteristics of the other gender. Concentrated in western and midwestern North America, berdaches were few. The status tended to disappear after Indian societies came under outside political control. Male berdaches, particularly, combined the social roles assigned to both genders.…
Cross-cultural Perspectives on Middle-aged Women [and Comments and Replies]
Several exploratory cross-cultural studies have suggested that positive changes take place in the lives of women in non-Western societies as they age beyond the childbearing years. They are freed from a variety of restrictions. They are given authority over certain specified kinsmen, and they are provided with opportunities for achievement and recognition beyond the household. The fact that such changes are more dramatic in some societies than in…

Systems Theory in Anthropology [and Comments and Reply]
When the first Anthropology Today panel met in the early 1950s, modern systems theory barely glimmered on the horizon. Since then, an entire generation of scholars has matured in an intellectual atmosphere which focuses on systemic relationships in social life. In the fall of 1977 a new World Anthropology conference was convened. One panel was devoted to identifying major research foci and continuing problems in systems theory in anthropology. Fi…

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…

Issues in the Ethics of Research Method
There is a pattern of elements within the Anglo-American structure of thinking and reasoning which affects methods of data collection, data analysis, and systems of information dispersion with respect to studies of non-Western cultures. An argument is built in this paper which maintains that: (1) These same elements hinder some Anglo-American anthropologists from studying their own cultures. They form a pattern which begins with the selection of …
