Epilogue
Language education policy in Afghanistan
Afghanistan lies at the historical crossroads of Central Asia, where before the Colonial Period the trade route into South Asia connected with the inter-urban trade route from the Mediterranean to China. In Afghanistan, although Persian has never been the first language of the majority, it has been and continues to be the main language of public affairs, and the preferred second language of non-native speakers. Language began to become a policy i…
Deserts and Desertification
Deserts are areas that lack the natural resources to support settled human life. Besides the polar regions, they are found in the arid zones of the northern and southern hemispheres. The significance of deserts in human history is a product of the relationship between climate change and human adaptation. Since social processes extend beyond the boundaries of ecosystems, life in desert areas varies according to the historical relationship of human…

The Baloch in Islamic Civilization, Western Ethnography, and World History
Our interest in the Baloch today is different from when we first studied them over a hundred years ago. None of the published work on the Baloch explains how or why they have changed. Each publication describes a situation rather than a process and provides no link to earlier or later situations. This article uses the published work and the writer's ethnographic experience to construct a historical framework that allows us to see the Baloch in a …
Literacy in the Persianate World
This book offers the first comparative study of the historical role of writing in three languages, including two in non-Roman scripts, over a period of two and a half millennia, which provides an opportunity for reassessment of the work on literacy in English that has accumulated over the past half century.

Weavers and dealers
The Orient is an integral part of European material civilisation and culture. Edward Said, Orientalism Carpets, oriental Oriental carpets have been recognized as prestigious furnishing in the West since the Middle Ages. In many ways, they represent the epitome of Western concern with alien things – especially utilitarian alien things. Carpets entered the Western cultural arena as a rare alien item of interest and eventually became a commodity. Bu…

Population Growth
essays collected in this book explore a new and important field of study--the interrelationship between population growth and decline and changes in technology, culture, and social organization. They were generated by a discussion of Ester Boserup's anti-Malthusian theory that the increased pressures of population on resources triggered evolutionary changes in the technology, culture, and social organization of historical agricultural societies. …

City and River in Iran
If viewed in full historical perspective, Isfahan may reasonably claim to have been the most important city on the Iranian plateau. It is also the most studied. However, although its unique historical monuments may possibly have (compared with the historiography of other great cities) received scholarly attention commensurate with the city's historical role, relatively little attention has been paid to its social and ecological history. Why did S…

Towards a Generative Model of Nomadism
The anthropological study of nomadism should be approached via cultural ecology and by the generative method. A preliminary generative model is presented, consisting of a series of seven rules. The first five are derived from the literature and are concerned with group formation. The last two are proposed by the writer with a view to making the articulation between group formation, social ecology and social organisation

Politics, Kinship, and Ecology in Southeast Persia
The Iranian plateau is an ideal area for investigating the relationship be? tween ecological and sociological factors because of its stark aridity, on the one hand, and its historical role as a meeting place of ethnic and cultural movements on the other. The part of the plateau which forms the southeast corner of Persia is particularly interesting from this point of view. Over an area of some 200,000 square kilometers the great majority of the po…

The language of the Administration is of course Persian, but outside the major settlements few people are bilingual, and probably as much Urdu as Persian is known-which is…
