Fabricating Transnational Capitalism: A Collaborative Ethnography of Italian-Chinese Global Fashion
In this innovative collaborative ethnography of Italian-Chinese ventures in the fashion industry, Lisa Rofel and Sylvia J. Yanagisako offer a new methodology for studying transnational capitalism.

Variance in American kinship: Implications for Cultural Analysis
The question of variance in American kinship provides a rich basis for a discussion of several critical conceptual, theoretical, and methodological Issues embedded in the cultural analysis of kinship or any other cultural domain. The paper begins with an examination of the extent to which David Schneider's cultural account of American kinship represents and explicates the symbolic system of second‐generation Japanese‐Americans. This leads to the …
Women-Centered Kin Networks in Urban Bilateral Kinship
Previous explanations of female centrality and "matrilateral asymmetry" in urban bilateral kinship have tended to reduce women's roles in extrahousehold kinship relations to their roles as mothers, and they have failed to explicate the social and cultural processes through which this asymmetry has emerged. In contrast, the present analysis of kinship relationships in an urban Japanese-American community attributes the centrality of women in inter…
Two Processes of Change in Japanese-American Kinship
Two processes of change in Japanese-American kinship are analyzed using a theoretical framework which differentiates the cultural structure of kinship (kinship as a system of symbols and meanings) from the social structure of kinship (the patterning of actual interaction between kinsmen). The first process, which follows Parsons's model of structural differentiation, entails a normative reorganization that leaves higher order values and the symbo…
