2. Community Context, Women's Natal Kin Ties, and Demand for Children: Macro-Micro Linkages in Social Demography1

Subjects: education.field_of_study, Sociology and Political Science, media_common.quotation_subject, Population, Ethnic group, Developing country, Social environment, Fertility, Social relation, behavior and behavior mechanisms, Kinship, Residence, Sociology, education, Demography, media_common
Abstract: This study uses survey and qualitative data for examining the impact of kinship relations on fertility and fertility preferences among the Tamang in Nepal. It is argued that individual-level mechanisms depend on the social and cultural context specifically that womens natal kin ties will be linked to fertility and vary with social context within one culture. It is predicted that closer ties to natal kin in Timling will increase womens demand for children and Timling women will have higher fertility than Sangila women who have weaker ties and greater participation in wage labor. Kin ties are measured by whether women still live in their natal village. Womens support from natal kin is measured by inheritance. Data are obtained from ethnographic sources and surveys conducted in Sangila and Timling during 1987-88. Multivariate models control for individual-level factors that affect the supply of children. Findings from logistic models indicate that Sangila women who still lived in natal villages were slightly more likely to desire more children while in Timling living in the natal village reduced the odds of desiring more children. The demand for more children was more strongly affected by strong and supportive ties to natal kin than residence in the natal village. Sangila women who received or expected an inheritance were significantly less likely to desire more children. The impact of inheritance was independent of the impact of living in the natal village. Contact with natal kin and support from natal kin had a large positive impact on the likelihood of Sangila couples adopting contraception to stop childbearing. Support from kin had a stronger impact on contraceptive use than contact with kin. Having or expecting an inheritance increased the odds of desiring more children by nine times in Timling and by 50% in Sangila. Findings show that kin ties can have different effects in different social contexts.

Abstract: We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with the 2006 March 29 SGR 1900+14 storm. A new search method is used, "stacking'' the GW data around the times of individual soft-gamma bursts in the storm to enhance sensitivity for models in which multiple bursts are accompanied by GW emission. We assume that variation in the time difference between burst electromagnetic emission and potential burst GW emission is small relative to the GW signal duration, and we time-align GW excess power time-frequency tilings containing individual burst triggers to their corresponding electromagnetic emissions. We use two GW emission models in our search: a fluence-weighted model and a flat (unweighted) model for the most electromagnetically energetic bursts. We find no evidence of GWs associated with either model. Model-dependent GW strain, isotropic GW emission energy E_GW, and \gamma = E_GW / E_EM upper limits are estimated using a variety of assumed waveforms. The stacking method allows us to set the most stringent model-dependent limits on transient GW strain published to date. We find E_GW upper limit estimates (at a nominal distance of 10 kpc) of between 2x10^45 erg and 6x10^50 erg depending on waveform type. These limits are an order of magnitude lower than upper limits published previously for this storm and overlap with the range of electromagnetic energies emitted in SGR giant flares., Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures

4. 'From sweet potatoes to God Almighty': Roy Rappaport on being a hedgehog

Author: Brian A. Hoey and Tom Fricke
Subjects: Rappaport, Field experience, Anthropology, Humanity, Ecological psychology, Anthropology of religion, Biography, Sociology, Religious studies, Ecological anthropology, Making-of
Abstract: Recognized as a principal figure in ecological anthropology, Roy Rappaport is best known for his study Pigs for the Ancestors (1968). His work in the anthropology of religion has received less attention. Least acknowledged is Rappaport's role in defining an “engaged” anthropology. Drawn from interviews Tom Fricke conducted with Rappaport in the year before his death in October 1997, this article gives insight into these three facets of his professional life. Beginning with an account of Rappaport's fieldwork with the Tsembaga Maring, the discussion takes up his core themes, ideas that evolved out of his early field experience and with which he was engaged as he worked to finish his final book, Ritual and Religion in the Making of Humanity (1999).

5. Culture and Causality: An Anthropological Comment

Author: Tom Fricke
Subjects: Sociology and Political Science, Interpretation (philosophy), Ethnography, Specialization (logic), Meaning (existential), Sociology, Coherence (statistics), Development, Constant (mathematics), Social psychology, Causality, Demography, Epistemology
Abstract: Anthropology's unique contribution to a discussion of causality is rooted in its specialization in culture rather than in methodological protocols for bolstering our confidence in correlations. This is so because causal arguments are inherently interpretive and, moreover, because human actors themselves operate in terms of meaning. The best interpretive models direct analytic attention to contexts of meaning and motivation. Because these meanings lie inside of people's heads, the interpretation of causality in these terms demands that the validity of analyses be argued for in terms of logical coherence based on highly localized criteria. As with all explanations of human behavior, demographic explanations are as a consequence open to constant reformulation based on new information and the never-ending search for coherence.

6. Design of a Neutral Macrocyclic Ionophore: Synthesis and Binding Properties for Nitrate and Bromide Anions

Abstract: A macrocyclic neutral ionophore 8 (X = O) capable of binding weakly coordinating anions such as nitrate and bromide in DMSO solution has been designed by a stepwise, deductive approach. The optimum geometrical arrangement of the hydrogen bond donor sites in the target ionophore was determined by DFT calculations. From these data, a suitable macrocyclic molecular framework was constructed. The 24-membered macrocyclic ionophore was synthesized by standard macrocyclization methods. NMR titrations revealed molecular complexes with defined 1:1 stoichiometries in DMSO for 8 (X = O) with nitrate, hydrogensulfate, acetate, cyanide, iodide, and bromide ions, while dihydrogenphosphate, sulfate, and chloride ions yielded aggregates of higher stoichiometry. The nitrate binding constants of 8 (X = O) are substantial for a neutral ionophore with defined binding sites in pure DMSO solution. Bromide ions, which have a similar ion radius, are bound with an even higher affinity. Chloride is obviously too small, and iodine too large, to form 1:1 complexes. The binding motif of 8 (X = O) was compared with related molecules of similar structure, such as 8 (X = S) and 19. As predicted from calculations, the small structural variations give rise to a complete loss of nitrate and bromide ion binding ability in DMSO. This sensitivity to geometrical changes and the affinity of 8 (X = O) to nitrate and bromide ions, which are poor hydrogen bond acceptors, confirm the predicted complementarity of ionophore binding site and anion geometry. According to DFT and MD calculations the higher affinity of 8 (X = O) to bromide than to nitrate is mainly due to the greater flexibility of the bromide complex and thus to its higher entropy.

Abstract: Substituted phenazines 7 and 15 with two urea units have been prepared and characterized. X-ray structure analyses are reported for intermediates 5, 9, 11b and 12. According to theoretical calculations the geometry of the two urea moieties in phenazines 7 and 15 should be well suited for the binding of trigonal planar anions, such as nitrate. NMR titration revealed that compound 15 indeed shows a weak interaction with nitrate ions in DMSO.

Abstract: Concave 1,10-phenanthrolines 1 are selective and efficient carrier molecules for membrane transport of copper(II) and lead(II) ions. With competitive membrane transport experiments the selectivity patterns of three concave 1,10-phenanthroline membrane carriers have been determined. Measurements with copper(II) and lead(II) nitrates confirmed the predicted selectivities and revealed high transport rates for 1a and 1b. While 1b shows a high preference for copper(II) nitrate, 1a transports lead and copper nitrates equally well, but with much higher flux. In bulk liquid membranes, the carrier mediated ion flux remained constant over an extended period, whereas it decreased significantly in reused supported liquid membranes, which indicates rapid loss of carrier from the membrane under these conditions.

Abstract: The links among family characteristics, pre-marital experiences organized outside the family, and participation in choice of spouse are now well established for historical transformations in a range of social settings. Less examined are the consequences of these changes for subsequent inter-familial relationships in societies where marriage organizes kin alliances and interfamilial labor obligations. Using survey and ethnographic data gathered in Nepal, this paper examines the implications of change in work, living experiences, and the marriage process for subsequent inter-familial relationships exemplified by crosscousin marriage and the provision of brideservice. Hypotheses are developed which consider the impact of community context on these behaviors; these are tested in logistic regression analyses for the first marriages of all 430 ever-married women in the community. Cross-cousin marriage and brideservice are shown to be related to prior familial characteristics, life-course experience, and elements of the marriage process in ways that are significantly conditioned by community history and proximity to urban centers.

Abstract: We report on a matched-filter search for gravitational wave bursts from cosmic string cusps using LIGO data from the fourth science run (S4) which took place in February and March 2005. No gravitational waves were detected in 14.9 days of data from times when all three LIGO detectors were operating. We interpret the result in terms of a frequentist upper limit on the rate of gravitational wave bursts and use the limits on the rate to constrain the parameter space (string tension, reconnection probability, and loop sizes) of cosmic string models., Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures.

Abstract: We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries, of total mass between 2 and 35M(circle dot), using LIGO observations between November 14, 2006 and May 18, 2007. No gravitational-wave signals were detected. We report upper limits on the rate of compact binary coalescence as a function of total mass. The LIGO cumulative 90%-confidence rate upper limits of the binary coalescence of neutron stars, black holes and black hole-neutron star systems are 1.4x10(-2), 7.3x10(-4) and 3.6x10(-3) yr(-1) L-10(-1), respectively, where L-10 is 10(10) times the blue solar luminosity.

Abstract: This paper reports on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from sources such as deformed isolated rapidly-spinning neutron stars. The analysis uses 840 hours of data from 66 days of the fifth LIGO science run (S5). The data was searched for quasi-monochromatic waves with frequencies f in the range from 50 Hz to 1500 Hz, with a linear frequency drift \dot{f} (measured at the solar system barycenter) in the range -f/\tau < \dot{f} < 0.1 f/\tau, for a minimum spin-down age \tau of 1000 years for signals below 400 Hz and 8000 years above 400 Hz. The main computational work of the search was distributed over approximately 100000 computers volunteered by the general public. This large computing power allowed the use of a relatively long coherent integration time of 30 hours while searching a large parameter space. This search extends Einstein@Home's previous search in LIGO S4 data to about three times better sensitivity. No statistically significant signals were found. In the 125 Hz to 225 Hz band, more than 90% of sources with dimensionless gravitational-wave strain tensor amplitude greater than 3e-24 would have been detected., Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures

Abstract: According to general relativity a perturbed black hole will settle to a stationary configuration by the emission of gravitational radiation. Such a perturbation will occur, for example, in the coalescence of a black hole binary, following their inspiral and subsequent merger. At late times the waveform is a superposition of quasi-normal modes, which we refer to as the ringdown. The dominant mode is expected to be the fundamental mode, l=m=2. Since this is a well-known waveform, matched filtering can be implemented to search for this signal using LIGO data. We present a search for gravitational waves from black hole ringdowns in the fourth LIGO science run S4, during which LIGO was sensitive to the dominant mode of perturbed black holes with masses in the range of 10 Msun to 500 Msun, the regime of intermediate-mass black holes, to distances up to 300 Mpc. We present a search for gravitational waves from black hole ringdowns using data from S4. No gravitational wave candidates were found; we place a 90%-confidence upper limit on the rate of ringdowns from black holes with mass between 85 Msun and 390 Msun in the local universe, assuming a uniform distribution of sources, of 3.2 x 10^{-5} yr^{-1} Mpc^{-3} = 1.6 x 10^{-3}yr^{-1} L_{10}^{-1}, where L_{10} is 10^{10} times the solar blue-light luminosity., 8 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: A search for periodic gravitational waves, from sources such as isolated rapidly-spinning neutron stars, was carried out using 510 hours of data from the fourth LIGO science run (S4). The search was for quasi-monochromatic waves in the frequency range from 50 Hz to 1500 Hz, with a linear frequency drift f-dot (measured at the solar system barycenter) in the range -f/tau < f-dot < 0.1 f/tau, where the minimum spin-down age tau was 1000 years for signals below 300 Hz and 10000 years above 300 Hz. The main computational work of the search was distributed over approximately 100000 computers volunteered by the general public. This large computing power allowed the use of a relatively long coherent integration time of 30 hours, despite the large parameter space searched. No statistically significant signals were found. The sensitivity of the search is estimated, along with the fraction of parameter space that was vetoed because of contamination by instrumental artifacts. In the 100 Hz to 200 Hz band, more than 90% of sources with dimensionless gravitational wave strain amplitude greater than 1e-23 would have been detected., 29 pages, 19 figures

Abstract: We present an all-sky search for gravitational waves in the frequency range 1 to 6 kHz during the first calendar year of LIGO's fifth science run. This is the first untriggered LIGO burst analysis to be conducted above 3 kHz. We discuss the unique properties of interferometric data in this regime. 161.3 days of triple-coincident data were analyzed. No gravitational events above threshold were observed and a frequentist upper limit of 5.4 events per year on the rate of strong gravitational wave bursts was placed at a 90% confidence level. Implications for specific theoretical models of gravitational wave emission are also discussed., Comment: 13 pages, accepted for publication in Physical Review D

Abstract: We have searched for gravitational waves from coalescing low mass compact binary systems with a total mass between 2 and 35 Msun and a minimum component mass of 1 Msun using data from the first year of the fifth science run (S5) of the three LIGO detectors, operating at design sensitivity. Depending on mass, we are sensitive to coalescences as far as 150 Mpc from the Earth. No gravitational wave signals were observed above the expected background. Assuming a compact binary objects population with a Gaussian mass distribution representing binary neutron star systems, black hole-neutron star binary systems, and binary black hole systems, we calculate the 90%-confidence upper limit on the rate of coalescences to be 3.9 \times 10^{-2} yr^{-1} L_{10}^{-1}, 1.1 \times 10^{-2} yr^{-1} L_{10}^{-1}, and 2.5 \times 10^{-3} yr^{-1} L_{10}^{-1} respectively, where $L_{10}$ is $10^{10}$ times the blue solar luminosity. We also set improved upper limits on the rate of compact binary coalescences per unit blue-light luminosity, as a function of mass., Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures, 2 tables; changes associated with referee comments, inclusion of recent LIGO calibration data, fixing small error in upper limit calculation

Abstract: Survey methods have been criticized for producing unreliable, invalid data and for failing to provide contextual information to test complex causal hypotheses. We discuss a technique that combines survey and ethnographic methods at every stage of the data collection process to overcome these shortcomings. We use ethnographic and survey evidence to show how the combined approach reduces coverage errors, nonresponse errors and measurement errors arising from the interviewer, the questionnaire, and the respondent. Complete integration of the two methods during data collection can uncover information that a survey alone would have missed. Ethnographic data can also be used to understand the meaning behind relationships among survey variables that would have otherwise been unclear. Finally, although the combined approach is intensive, it is flexible enough to be used in a variety of settings to study many different research questions.

Abstract: We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron star f-modes, usually considered the most efficient GW emitting modes. We find no evidence of GWs associated with any SGR burst in a sample consisting of the 27 Dec. 2004 giant flare from SGR 1806-20 and 190 lesser events from SGR 1806-20 and SGR 1900+14 which occurred during the first year of LIGO's fifth science run. GW strain upper limits and model-dependent GW emission energy upper limits are estimated for individual bursts using a variety of simulated waveforms. The unprecedented sensitivity of the detectors allows us to set the most stringent limits on transient GW amplitudes published to date. We find upper limit estimates on the model-dependent isotropic GW emission energies (at a nominal distance of 10 kpc) between 3x10^45 and 9x10^52 erg depending on waveform type, detector antenna factors and noise characteristics at the time of the burst. These upper limits are within the theoretically predicted range of some SGR models., Comment: 6 pages, 1 Postscript figure

Abstract: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) operates a 40m prototype interferometer on the Caltech campus. The primary mission of the prototype is to serve as an experimental testbed for upgrades to the LIGO interferometers and for gaining experience with advanced interferometric techniques, including detuned resonant sideband extraction (i.e. signal recycling) and dc readout (optical homodyne detection). The former technique will be employed in Advanced LIGO, and the latter in both Enhanced and Advanced LIGO. Using dc readout for gravitational wave signal extraction has several technical advantages, including reduced laser and oscillator noise couplings as well as reduced shot noise, when compared to the traditional rf readout technique (optical heterodyne detection) currently in use in large-scale ground-based interferometric gravitational wave detectors. The Caltech 40m laboratory is currently prototyping a dc readout system for a fully suspended interferometric gravitational wave detector. The system includes an optical filter cavity at the interferometer's output port, and the associated controls and optics to ensure that the filter cavity is optimally coupled to the interferometer. We present the results of measurements to characterize noise couplings in rf and dc readout using this system.

Abstract: This paper explores familial contexts of transition to a wage labor economy using ethnographic and survey data from Tamang communities at the northern edge of Nepal's Kathmandu Valley. Historically agro-pastoralist, the Tamang of this area have experienced social watersheds drawing them into ever closer relationships with Kathmandu. The earliest was their nineteenth century induction into corvee labor for national elites; more recent has been the accelerating monetization of the twentieth century. This analysis demonstrates trends and frames hypotheses about the social structuring of this latest process, testing them at the individual level with combined ethnographic and survey data from 1028 respondents. Multivariate analyses explore the effects of birth cohort, education, domestic group status, and settlement location on participation in non-family organized wage work. Substantive findings are related to the broader historical literature on household and family with special attention to varieties of subsistence to monetized transition.

25. The Micro-Demographic Community Study Approach

Abstract: Survey methods have been criticized for producing unreliable, invalid data and for failing to provide contextual information to test complex causal hypotheses. We discuss a technique that combines survey and ethnographic methods at every stage of the data collection process to overcome these shortcomings. We use ethnographic and survey evidence to show how the combined approach reduces coverage errors, nonresponse errors and measurement errors arising from the interviewer, the questionnaire, and the respondent. Complete integration of the two methods during data collection can uncover information that a survey alone would have missed. Ethnographic data can also be used to understand the meaning behind relationships among survey variables that would have otherwise been unclear. Finally, although the combined approach is intensive, it is flexible enough to be used in a variety of settings to study many different research questions.

Abstract: We report a concise method for the preparation of 1,4,7,10-tetra-N-alkyl-1,4,7,10-tetraaza-cyclododecanes via deprotonation to the fourfold lithium amide followed by alkylation with alkyl bromides. The procedure circumvents the problem of ammonium salt formation and provides direct access to hydrophobic 1,4,7,10-tetraaza-cyclododecanes in moderate yield. The so obtained hydrophobic macrocycles were converted into the corresponding zinc(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes, that may be used as water stable Lewis-acids in catalysis and anion extraction.

Abstract: A processing error in the signal template used in this search led to upper limits about 30% lower than we now know is warranted by the early S5 data. We have re-analyzed that data and find new upper limits on the strain parameter h 0 of 4.9 × 10–25/3.9 × 10–25 for uniform/restricted prior assumptions concerning the Crab inclination and polarization angles. These results have now been superseded by upper limits of 2.6 × 10–25/2.0 × 10–25 based on the full S5 data and presented in Abbott et al. (2009). The multitemplate search was not affected by the error. This is an Erratum for the article in Astrophysical Journal, 683 L45 2008

Abstract: The chapters in this volume are substantially revised versions of papers originally presented at the Brown University Conference on Anthropological Demography November 3-5 1994.... This volume is motivated by a sense that the time is ripe for a reconsideration and renewal of past achievements together with the development of a new synthesis in the relationship between anthropology and demography.... The contributions take various and not always reconcilable points of view. The opening chapters for example illustrate that the foundations of demographic engagement with anthropology in issues of kinship social organization and the formation of domestic groups are as alive and valid today as in the past. Subsequent chapters expand on standard demographic concepts by demonstrating the role of anthropology in rethinking their cross-cultural validity. Some chapters more critically evaluate the relationship between demography and anthropology with reference to their epistemological roots while others apply specific frameworks from the general anthropological and theoretical literature to demographic issues.

Abstract: FOR A CULTURAL anthropologist, one of the most promising developments in demography over the last 20 years has been the demise of its once guiding paradigm, classic demographic transition theory. Wielding the hammers that drove the nails into its coffin were demographers themselves, writing in the summary volume of the Princeton study of European fertility transitions. Comments on that study by John Knodel and Etienne van de Walle, Susan Watkins, and Barbara Anderson (Coale and Watkins 1986) all referred to the failure of the supposed predictors-urbanization, literacy, infant and child mortality, and industrialization-to account for the pattern of decline in the various regions of Europe. All of these authors noted the impact of a theretofore little understood variable, cultural setting, on the rates and shape of transition. Their striking candor, along with the parallel developments in John Caldwell's work in other geographic areas (Caldwell 1982; Caldwell, Reddy, and Caldwell 1988), opened a new era in demographic research. The new era, which we are still in, is marked by a self-conscious search for methodologies that will allow demographers to incorporate cultural meanings into their explanations of demographic processes. All of us have benefited from the resulting openness to methodological experiment and, especially, from the welcome extended to anthropologists interested in demographic issues. That welcome has provided me with the opportunity to engage in a series of ongoing collaborations that have been among the most satisfying and intellectually exciting of my career as an anthropologist and a demographer. Nevertheless, I see the current state of our discipline as posing some danger for the continued exploration of ways to introduce culture and meaning into our explanations and interpretations of demographic phenomena. I once raised the hackles of some of my demographic colleagues by suggesting that demography was in the midst of what some philosophers

Abstract: Marriage in most societies constitutes one of the primary transitions in a person's life course. Its significance is heightened by including the interests of networks beyond the couple in societies organized by kinship. Because marriage can carry multivalent meanings for individuals and groups joined by it in these settings, it has been identified as a key moment in the reproduction of social relations incorporating hierarchy, exchange, and domestic group activities in its web of significance (Barnard and Good 1984; Collier 1988). From a somewhat different perspective, demographers have investigated the timing of marriage and drawn out its implications for other population processes in those settings where marriage initiates childbearing (Smith 198 3). Trained in predominantly Euro-American social science. traditions to study predominantly Euro-American people, demographers have focused mainly on the individual determinants of marriage processes. While often acknowledging the wider familial interests brought to bear on marriage timing, they seldom go beyond immediate family members for contextualizing their analyses of these processes. Recent statements by anthropologically sensitive demographers and others point to a union of these traditions (Macfarlane 1986; Caldwell et al. 1988; Greenhalgh 1990). Marriage as just one instance of social action should be subject to the same analytic frameworks found to be productive in other social analysis. If particular marriage forms are evidence of wider strategies of social reproduction (Bourdieu 1976), then the timing of marriage should itself be seen as a part of that process. Thus marriage timing is no less the proper study of anthropology than any other element of marriage behavior. At the same time, marriage timing should be seen to have implications beyond the merely demographic. Here we draw on these two traditions of analysis to explore the differential timing of marriage among the women of Timling, a central Himalayan village in Nepal inhabited by the Tamang and Ghale descendants of migrants from Tibet. We explore the family politics of marriage timing in one setting of the Tamang Family Research Project, a microdemographic study of changing life course experience, family relationships, and fertility behavior in two Nepali communities (Axinn et al.1991 The project involved ethnographic and survey data collection in 1987-88 and 1991, building on earlier fieldwork in Timling in 1981. Our analysis begins with the anthropological insight expressed recently by Jane Collier (1988), that in societies organized by kinship, marriage processes are instrumental to structuring social reproduction. We pursue our argument in light of this principle. Our methodological approach, on the other hand, makes use of quantitative tools of event history analysis which, while well established among demographers as essential methods for analyzing dynamic processes quantitatively (Allison 1984; Teachman 1982; Yamaguchi 1991), are used by only a tiny number of anthropologists (Jones 1989; Kertzer and Hogan 1989; Fricke and Teachman 1993; Hill, in press).(2) DETERMINANTS OF MARRIAGE TIMING Alan Macfarlane (1986), writing in the tradition linking the culture and organization of families to demographic events, has suggested that societies lie along a continuum from those in which familial interests dominate to those in which the interests of individuals prevail. Following on the work of Caldwell (1982), he argues that marriage systems are tied to various other elements of domestic economy and demographic regime. In cross-societal comparisons, high familial levels of organization are generally associated with wealth flows from children to senior kin, relatively early ages at marriage, and higher fertility levels (Thornton and Fricke 1987). Widespread transformations toward individuation in these family-organized societies has occupied the attention of social demographers and family sociologists since the early 1960s (Goode 1970; Caldwell 1982; Caldwell et al. …

37. Elementary Structures in the Nepal Himalaya: Reciprocity and the Politics of Hierarchy in Ghale-Tamang Marriage

Author: Tom Fricke

Abstract: The relationships organized by marriage and kinship in small scale societies have long been a mainstay of anthropological approaches to society. These approaches have, however, varied in contentious ways through the years. Some have stressed adherence to positive rules of marriage and behavior embedded in kinship terminologies (Levi-Strauss 1969 [1949]); others have stressed social organization as an outcome of statistical patterns of behavior (Murdock 1949). Still others have discussed social organization in terms of decision-making models, themselves structured by an embedded hierarchy of rules available to the conscious repertoire of social actors (Keesing 1967). More recent and promising analyses have attempted to join the improvisations of human agency with accounts that recognize the role of structured historical relationships and their strategic recreation (Bourdieu 1977). These are largely subsumed under the heading of practice approaches (Ortner 1984, 1989:11-18) and themselves encompass applications to various sets of data from historical (Bourdieu 1976) and secondary ethnographic sources (Collier 1988) to actual analyses of process among contemporary groups (Bradburd 1984). Among the advantages of practice approaches is an explicit concern with individual strategic behavior conducted within particular contexts of meaning and prestige rather than in response to an integrated, highly structured set of rules (Bourdieu 1976:119-120). This stress on defining particular local contexts does not exclude economic considerations from the understanding of practice although they are not given a priori analytic prominence. Moreover, where other approaches have stressed logical coherence, either in parallels between behavior and terminology or in normative systems, the practice perspective allows for the simultaneous existence of apparently contradictory motivations. Indeed, these points of tension provide actors with the alternatives that give flexibility to social systems. Leach recognized the importance of these inconsistencies in his work on the Kachin, suggesting that the "overall process of structural change comes about through the manipulation of these alternatives as a means of social advancement" (1977:8). Recent work demonstrates the pivotal position of marriage in recreating and extending political and domestic statuses in classless societies. Much of this work, however, seems to imply that any particular society will be defined by highly integrated ideal models which define the differences along which inequalities are structured. Jane Collier's (1988) three models of social inequality defined by marriage, for example, take social inequality as a necessary condition in all societies, but appear to assume single discourses of social interaction within any particular setting.

Abstract: This note contrasts John Caldwells wealth flows theory of fertility decline with an alternative approach to explaining the demographic transition advanced by Paul Turke based on the assumptions of work in sociobiology. Caldwells general theory fits quite well with known empirical patterns whereas Turkes model is contradicted by empirical studies. Moreover while sociobiological considerations of demographic transition are valuable in drawing attention to kinship support networks they are limited by their tendency to define these networks solely in biological terms at the expense of social definitions of proximate interest.

43. Social change and the family: Comparative perspectives from the west, China, and South Asia

Author: Arland Thornton and Tom Fricke
Subjects: education.field_of_study, Economic growth, Sociology and Political Science, Population, Social change, Extended family, Family life, Industrialisation, Demographic change, Kinship, sense organs, Sociology, education, Sociocultural evolution
Abstract: This paper examines the influence of social and economic change on family structure and relationships: How do such economic and social transformations as industrialization, urbanization, demographic change, the expansion of education, and the long-term growth of income influence the family? We take a comparative and historical approach, reviewing the experiences of three major sociocultural regions: the West, China, and South Asia. Many of the changes that have occurred in family life have been remarkably similar in the three settings—the separation of the workplace from the home, increased training of children in nonfamilial institutions, the development of living arrangements outside the family household, increased access of children to financial and other productive resources, and increased participation by children in the selection of a mate. While the similarities of family change in diverse cultural settings are striking, specific aspects of change have varied across settings because of significant pre-existing differences in family structure, residential patterns of marriage, autonomy of children, and the role of marriage within kinship systems.

44. Rural punjabi social organization and marriage timing strategies in Pakistan

Author: Sabiha H. Syed, Peter C. Smith, and Tom Fricke
Subjects: education.field_of_study, Population, Kinship, Ethnic group, Social environment, Developing country, Survey data collection, Dowry, Sociology, education, Social organization, Socioeconomics, Demography
Abstract: Using data from the Asian Marriage Survey and ethnographic material for the Punjab and South Asia we examine the contribution of social organization and marriage processes to the explanation of female marriage age in rural Pakistan. The perspective is that marriage constitutes an alliance-building strategy involving whole households and patrilines and that kinship distance between families dowry values landed status of families and direction of wealth flows at marriage have significant effects on marriage timing separate from those of more standard indicators. The analysis is shown to support this hypothesis. "Implications extend to perspectives and variables used to explain marriage behavior and potential for combining survey data and ethnography in analysis." (EXCERPT)

45. Introduction: Human ecology in the Himalaya

Author: Tom Fricke
Subjects: Adaptive strategies, Sociology and Political Science, Ecology, Cultural ecology, Ecology (disciplines), Subsistence agriculture, Subsistence economy, Environmental ethics, Environmental Science (miscellaneous), Social relation, Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous), Anthropology, Human ecology, Ethnology, Sociology, Adaptation (computer science)
Abstract: Knowledge of human adaptation in the Himalayas has developed more slowly than that for other world mountain systems. At the same time, the opening of the region to research has focused attention toward description in a "natural history" mode until quite recently. Where these studies have addressed issues of adaptation they have tended to do so more as a heuristic tool rather than in terms of contributing to the development of adaptive perspectives from a uniquely Himalayan vantage point. The contributions to this special issue suggest some of Himalayan cultural ecology's new themes as it more directly assumes a truly processual approach that incorporates the individual and domestic dimensions of adaptation within historical and social contexts.

Abstract: LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration; In gravitational-wave detection, special emphasis is put onto searches that focus on cosmic events detected by other types of astrophysical observatories. The astrophysical triggers, e.g. from gamma-ray and X-ray satellites, optical telescopes and neutrino observatories, provide a trigger time for analyzing gravitational wave data coincident with the event. In certain cases the expected frequency range, source energetics, directional and progenitor information is also available. Beyond allowing the recognition of gravitational waveforms with amplitudes closer to the noise floor of the detector, these triggered searches should also lead to rich science results even before the onset of Advanced LIGO. In this paper we provide a broad review of LIGO's astrophysically triggered searches and the sources they target.
