Historian E. Taylor Atkins is one of a burgeoning number of scholars in this field, and in this relatively short book, he not only covers a huge swath of time and territory but also integrates into his writing a host of Japanese words and names as well as ic…
Assessing Effects of a Media Literacy-Based Intervention on US Adolescents' Responses to and Interpretations of Sexual Media Messages
This study, a pretest-posttest quasi-experiment conducted in the field (n = 1098), examined a media literacy curriculum to determine its influence on adolescents' responses to and interpretations of sexual media messages. Main effects were confirmed on seven of eight dependent variables tested. Treatment-group participants increased their understanding that media influence teens' decisions regarding sex and media depictions often misrepresent sex…

The Dynamics of Capitalism in the Irish Linen Industry
Toward an Historical Anthropology of the ‘Ethical State’
The cultural formation of citizens and the hegemony of the ‘ethical state’ in England emerged in the mid-nineteenth century, a period when capitalist social relations were consolidating, operating through the processes of bourgeois institutional differentiation and the regulation of culture and social space from above. This paper employs the methods of historical ethnography to address the historical vertities of these cultural processes in colon…

An Anglo-Welsh Teaching Dynasty
Occasions of Faith
Due to the tenacity of disciplinary boundaries in the Irish academy, only a small number of anthropologists seek to integrate past and present in their analyses. The book Occasions of faith: An anthropology of Irish Catholics makes a valuable contribution to such interdisciplinary methodologies, while it examines the beliefs and practices of residents in Southwest Donegal. Throughout the book, Taylor masterfully weaves past and present together u…

Survival Strategies in Female-Headed Households
Recent scholarship reveals that women's employment patterns in the nineteenth century were more complex than the prevailing family wage ideology might suggest. This was especially true for those women living in female-headed households. Although female-headed households represented a sizeable minority of the working class, there has been little systematic analysis of them in Ireland. This article addresses this gap and contributes to a more diffe…
