Interactions with alloparents are associated with the diversity of infant skin and fecal bacterial communities in Chicago, United States
Introduction: Social interactions shape the infant microbiome by providing opportunities for caregivers to spread bacteria through physical contact. With most research focused on the impact of maternal–infant contact on the infant gut microbiome, it is unclear how alloparents (i.e., caregivers other than the parents) influence the bacterial communities of infant body sites that are frequently contacted during bouts of caregiving, including the sk…
Association Between Preterm Birth and Fulfillment of Desired Permanent Contraception
Obstetrician-Gynecologist Perspectives and Counseling Practices on the U.S. Medicaid Waiting Period for Permanent Contraception
Patient Perspectives on Clinician Support When Pursuing Permanent Contraception in the United States
Background Given the history of coercion in the provision of sterilization, it is important that patients who desire permanent contraception receive patient‐centered care that respects their preferences. Recent literature examining the provision of postpartum permanent contraception has not explored whether patients who desire permanent contraception feel supported by their clinical teams. Methods We interviewed patients from four medical centers…

Mennonite Chaco Mission, Iglesia Evangélica Unida (IEU), and Argentina's Nation-State
Research reports on Christian missions to foreign lands have tended to focus on the relationship between missionary and native people, giving little attention to the interplay of nation-state agencies. Furthermore, the reports portray a one-way process in which the missionary gives and natives receive, although the intervention actually entails multiple agents influencing one another. This study documents the dynamic interaction among a Mennonite…
Peoples of the Gran Chaco
The Gran Chaco region of South America constitutes a cultural area that is little known and largely misunderstood by the majority of people living outside its borders. From the earliest period of European contact, the societies under consideration here defended their territory and resisted first colonial and later national policies of domination and assimilation. The unique forms such resistance took constitute the subject of this book. Contrary …

field. It was my impression then that this was due in large part to strong feelings of ambivalence that anthropologists had toward missionaries. On the one hand, missionaries turned out to be helpful in the field;on the other, their activities and goals conflicted with those of the anthropologist. While the ambivalence may still be present, certainly the record of anthropological interest in missionary activity has changed dramatically. During th…

On the Interpretation of South American Folklore
English-reading scholars everywhere are indebted to Wilbert and his colleagues for the translation of Gusinde's collections of Selknam (Ona) and Yamana (Yahgan) folktales from Tierra del Fuego. These two volumes, together with Wilbert's previous publication on Warao "folk literature" (Orinoco Delta), contribute significantly to the documentation of aboriginal lore from lowland South America. Along with Metraux's account of Chaco myths and tales, …

Shamans, power symbols, and change in Argentine Toba culture1
Despite nearly four centuries of contact with Europeans, the Argentine Toba symbolic system did not appear to be significantly influenced by Western symbolism until recent decades. This paper discusses the nature of that system, particularly as expressed in cosomology, shamanism, and sorcery, and the nature of change introduced by Pentecostalism. Emphasis is placed upon the communication processes involved when different symbolic systems confront…

The Christian Missionary, Agent of Secularization
Anthropologists tend 'to view Christian missionaries as conveyers of a supernaturalistic world view. This paper argues, in contrast, that missionaries are primarily agents of secularization. Socialized in a largely secular society, Western missionaries look to science for the explanation of most day-to-day experiences of human existence. Naturalistic, rather than supernaturalistic, beliefs form the organizing basis for viewing the vast majority o…

Toba Kin Terms
This article examines the kin term system of the Toba, an indigenous group in the Gran Chaco region of South America. Miller analyzes the complexities of Toba kinship terminology, highlighting its bifurcate merging features and the influence of social organization and cultural practices on kin classification. The study reveals how Toba kin terms reflect not only genealogical relationships but also social roles, obligations, and behavioral pattern…
