Collecting Local Views on the Post-Covid Future of Flying Using Online Qualitative Methods
The aviation sector represents an important terrain for contemporary environmental politics and policy. This position has been complicated by the Covid-19 pandemic, which led to a dramatic slowdown in international travel and threatened the position of the aviation and airline sectors. The temporality of this decline remains unclear. In this article, we present online qualitative research that explores how people think their flying habits might c…
Justicia alimentaria, de la tierra y climática en el Caribe
Through an interdisciplinary conversation in the context of the project: Food Insecurity in Times of Climate Change: Sharing and Learning from Bottom-up Responses in the Caribbean Region, we expose the voices, history and knowledge of local communities and activists in Barbuda, Belize, Colombia (San Andres and Providencia), Jamaica and Puerto Rico to the food insecurity and ecological crisis in the Caribbean. The composite effect of climate injus…

Domestic Hospitality
This article examines the connections between the economic, social and cultural aspects of a rather peculiar practice - events of domestic hospitality which involve a meal. In formats ranging from the formal dinner party to impromptu potluck events, an economic good is transferred from one household to another, ostensibly as a unilateral gift although often prompting reciprocity. Illustrated with results from a mixed methods re-study of the pract…

What role for trade in food sovereignty? Insights from a small island archipelago
The food sovereignty movement has been gathering momentum in advocating the rights of individuals and nations to control their own food systems. Alongside this is a mounting critical engagement regarding its privileging of local food production as the means through which to achieve this goal. Adopting a place-based approach, we explore the foodways of diverse communities across a small island archipelago - the Turks and Caicos Islands in the West…
Studying consumption through the lens of practice
This chapter describes how the application of current popular theoretical interest in the concept of practice has affected the study of consumption. Reckwitz located theories of practice in relation to dominant schools of cultural analysis, arguing primarily that the latter's focus on symbolic aspects failed to appreciate the material attributes of social life. Extrapolating the specific implications of this account of practice theory for consump…
Changing consumption, changing tastes? Exploring consumer narratives for food secure, sustainable and healthy diets
The changing meaning of eating out in three English cities 1995–2015
Positioning Food Cultures
Many sociological studies to date have explored the role of food in marking distinctions between groups. Less well understood is how 'alternative' means of food consumption become figured in such relations. Drawing on accounts of food practice derived from 20 in-depth interviews and a two-year period of participant observation, this article considers the role of class culture in the practice of alternative food consumption. As participants speak …
The Imagery of Fire, Water and Marriage in Saint Teresa of Ávila
Household consumption and environmental change
Central to debates concerned with societal transition towards low-carbon living is the imperative to encourage individual subjects to shift their behaviours to support less consumptive ways of life: eating less meat, consuming less energy and water, and wasting less of what we do consume. Exploring narratives derived from 30 interviews with householders living in and around a UK city, this article considers the dynamics surrounding consumption, u…
Peter Tyler, Teresa of Avila
Invoking Simplicity
Contributing to debates that question the prevalence of distinction surrounding contemporary food culture, this article considers the persistence of social differentiation within the context of 'alternative' food practice. Doing so is predicated upon the impasse between arguments that food offers a means of conferring status on the one hand, and a means for wide participation in cultural consumption on the other. Starting from this binary of 'omn…

The Anatomy of Envy
Envy is a pan-human phenomenon, universally feared, at least subconsciously, as a particularly dangerous emotion, since it implies hostility and aggression capable of destroying individuals and even societies. Especially in Western society, man has rather successfully repressed his true feelings about envy, which he is taught is the most shameful and reprehensible of all emotions. But even while denying it, man in all cultures has found devices, …

The Economic Systems of Ancient Oaxaca
Archaeological data from a regional settlement pattern survey of the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico, are used to monitor how scarce goods and resources were allocated to members of society through eight phases from 600 B.C. to A.D. 1520. The goal is to determine how distinct historical social structures performed economically in terms of the goods and resources recoverable archaeologically. Measures utilized include land use and settlement characterist…
The Hypoglycemia-Aggression Hypothesis
In a critical evaluation of work by Ralph Bolton on the relationship between hypoglycemia and aggression among the Qolla of Peru, Ted Lewellen has argued that the Qolla are not highly aggressive, that they have been the victims of pseudoscientific stereotyping and prejudice, that they are not especially prone to problems in glucose homeostasis, and that whatever aggression they display can be explained in large part by their consumption of alcoho…

Social Norms, the Self, and Sociobiology
A. I. Hallowell tried to turn anthropology towards a sociobiology while the former field was still strongly opposed to any consideration of the evolution of human behavior. His work is of more than historical interest, however, because he stressed the evolution of the human ability to internalize social norms and evaluate self and others in terms of them. This ability is the basis of our species's trait of cultural rather than biological adaptati…
Descriptive Statements, Covering Laws, and Theories in Archaeology [and Comments and Reply]
The paradigm for explanation in archaeology presented by the "new archaeologists" is reviewed and shown to need further elaboration. It is argued that that presentation has overemphasized the form of explanatory arguments and insufficiently considered their content. Not all explanatory arguments provide intuitively satisfactory explanations of particular observations. Instead, intuitively satisfactory explanations require general theories which s…
Socio-archaeology [and Comments and Reply]
This article represents another attempt to combine archaeology and social anthropology in order to investigate the possibility of reconstructing some major features of prehistoric social systems. As man has always had to come to terms with the ecosystem of which he is an integral part, ecology comes to be extremely important, the more so since it is a truly holistic science dealing with the entire homeostatic balance in nature. The main differenc…

They want to know the results, and unlike laboratory rats, they regard the findings with emotion, says Douglas G. Haring (1956:61) of the literate people among whom he worked in Amami Oshima, Ryukyu Islands. The question of imparting the results to the people studied is fundamental, he adds, in any anthropological investigation among a literate population. The forthcoming issue of a Spanish translation of Five Families brings up this question. Al…
The Alleged Diffusion of Hindu Divine Symbols into Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica
Parallels between certain religous symbols in Hindu and Mesoamerican cultures have been drawn by three modern writers and adduced as evidence suggestive of trans-Pacific diffusion of Hindu influences dating to about the mid-1st millennium A.D. and later. The symbols concerned are those of the deities of the lunar asterisms and the planets-the naksatra and navagrahah series, respectively-of the Hindus as compared with the structural features and s…
Violence and behavior
Biological and social scientists met to consider violence as a form of human behavior. Rather than conflicting conclusions, what emerged was a set of hypotheses — some of long standing, others new — that tended to fit together and form a coherent, if still far from complete, picture in spite of the striking diversity of disciplines and methods represented. Not for the first time, but with unusual force, the old idea of heredity versus experience …

Studies on antiviolent and “normal” communities
Limited preliminary studies have provided identification of several communities in the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico, that successfully control major interpersonal violence without formal police and judicial apparatus of the sort customary in industrial societies, even though these antiviolent towns are surrounded by others showing a “normal” level of violence. Because the antiviolent places share biological inheritance, culture, language (Zapotec and…
