    James M Sebring•ARTICLE•Journal of Anthropological Research•1987•Cited by: 1

    An erroneous conception that Hindu farmers starve unwanted bovine calves in a state of ignorance, or "unknowingness," is shown to be the result of three interrelated factors: (1) too deductive an application of a general theory; (2) a field methodology which is a consequence of the theory; and (3) a conception of Hinduism not germane to the farmers to whom it is applied

  • Caste Indicators and Caste Identification of Strangers

    James M Sebring•ARTICLE•Human Organization•1969•Cited by: 2
