Abstract:

In September 1992, we embarked upon a research project designed to investigate lesbian attitudes towards HIV/AIDS risk and the impact on these attitudes of a safer sex workshop for lesbians and bisexual women. This project was part of a graduate seminar aimed at familiarizing students in the Anthropology Department at the University of Kentucky with techniques involved in community-based ethnographic research. As anthropologists, we were interested in collecting data on individual behaviors and perceptions of risk. We then wanted to contrast our findings with institutionally recognized risk ca

Abstract:

Whether as professional endeavor or intimate personal experience, anthropologists are going beyond the ivory tower to work on projects where intervention and social change are the norm. This paper traces the journey of one academic as she ventures out of the classroom to become a social change agent late in her career. Discussion focuses on the dynamic process of applying twenty-five years of women and development studies to the creation of a campaign for girls' education in a Guatemalan town. Based on her considerable knowledge of gender relations in the community, the author is able to work

Abstract:

Abstract COVID-19 brought widespread social isolation, anxiety, and economic instability. No aspect of societal function was unaffected, including anthropologists’ ability to use traditional face-to-face methodologies. In this paper, we describe our adaptation to these constraints as we examine the problems people faced during the early pandemic. We draw on cultural ecology to discuss how researchers and the public adapted to extraordinarily challenging environments. We conducted an anonymous online survey with Connecticut residents to assess behaviors, knowledge, and attitudes about COVID-19

Abstract:

   Menopause is defined by its relationship to menstruation––it is the cessation of menstruation. Medical texts identify menopause as part of the cycle of “decay” associated with female reproductive functions; early menopause is often a dreaded result of various medical treatments and a sign of disfunction. It turns out that only three types of animals experience menopause: killer whales, short-finned pilot whales, and humans, while other animals can reproduce until death.

Abstract:

In recent years the analysis of individual communities in England has shed increasing light on their economic, social, demographic, cultural and religious development during the three centuries prior to the Industrial Revolution. Contemporaneously, and to some extent resulting from these local studies, there has been a growing interest in the family and patterns of inheritance. Similarly, among social anthropologists there has been the development of the concept of ‘strategy’ with writings on marriage, fertility, inheritance and migration strategies, although these may be regarded as component

Abstract:

The image and interpretation of the ballerina has shifted over time since she first took her place in the pantheon of romantic female performers in the early nineteenth century. For many, she is still romanticized, respected, and revered; in other circles, she has become suspect as a creature who may be obsessed, exploited, and retrogressive in light of the egalitarian strides women have made or are still trying to make. The female ballet dancer's basic contradiction—her ethereal exterior and her iron-willed interior—has not been sufficiently accounted for in either scheme, nor has it been wov

Invoking issues related to women, family, slavery, nostalgic landscapes, and an overall sensibility to Lusotropicalist fantasies, Freyre embraces multiracial ideology while also exuding a laissez-faire attitude towards the struggles of the weak—,the colonized Amerindian and ensla

Across European nations, the binary distinction between ‘us’ and ‘them’ has been reinforced by right-wing populists seeking to frame global mass migration waves as the backdrop against which increased social fragmentation can be explained. While persisting resentments and continuing ethnicization of different social groups amplify hatred towards migrants, refugees and people of colour, many artistic and cultural institutions have taken a stand against such discriminatory rhetoric, trying to use their programmes as gateways to imagine new forms of solidarity and possibilities of organizing livi

These scrapbooks are considered one of the small forms of urban and rural folklore of the recent Soviet past and have become an object of study by folklorists and anthropologists. This type of handwritten folklore has been widely studied in the works of foreigners, especially Russian theorists. It is usually referred to as post-folklore or subculture (Neklyudov). Various manifestations of adolescent behavior can be found in these manuscript albums: from rebelliousness

In recent years more than in the past, we have witnessed the spread of a series of murders that took place in familiar circumstances.  In a contemporary society, the child is protected and defended by legal regulations, but still, the phenomenon of filicide remains one of the crimes that raise an alarm in public opinion.

At the same time, fashion (Entwistle), including clothing and skin (Bille), have emerged as crucial to understanding the human condition.

This article investigates the prosthesis of identity through the process of branding. It examines cross-cultural manifestations of this phenomena from sixth millennium BCE Syria to twelfth century Japan and Britain. From the Neolithic Era, humanity has sort to extend their identities using pictorial signs that were characteristically simple. Designed to be distinctive and instantly recognisable, the totemic symbols served to signal the origin of the bearer. Subsequently, the development of branding coincided with periods of increased in mobility both in respect to geography and social strata.
