Abstract
− Subsistence − "How people get their groceries" − fundamental to understanding everything else about a c lture − subsistence is inextricably linked to everything el se (remember "culture is integrated") − as a result, anthropologists can rarely, if ever, d iscuss subsistence without bringing in other aspects of culture − such as gender roles and relations − marriage rules − ideals and practices about status and wealth − systems of trade or other kinds of exchange, etc. − the three readings all illustrate this − Anthropologists describe subsistence strategies for various reasons − as context or background to explain how a particula r group lives, as part of an ethnography, so that other aspects of the culture w ill make sense − as in the reading by Lee 1984 (The Dobe !Kung) for today, and Pospisil (on the Kapauku Papuans of Papua New Guinea), Chapter 4 of Fratkin (on the Ariaal of Kenya) for next time − to explain the logic behind general types of subsis tence systems and what factors affect them − as in Lee 1994 (Scarce Resources) for today, or the in roductory section of the reading by Fratkin (Ariaal) for next time − to evaluate theories or generalizations about cultu res, cultural evolution, and so on − as in Lee 1994 (Scarce Resources)
生存——“人们如何购买日用品”——这是理解一种文化其他方面的基础——生存与其他方面有着千丝万缕的联系(记住“文化是一体的”)——因此,人类学家在讨论生存问题时,如果不考虑文化的其他方面,几乎是不可能的——比如性别角色和关系——婚姻规则——关于地位和财富的理想和实践——贸易制度或其他形式的交换制度,等等——这三篇阅读材料都说明了这一点——人类学家出于各种原因描述生存策略——作为解释特定群体如何生活的背景或背景,作为民族志的一部分,这样文化的其他方面就会有意义——就像李1984年(the Dobe !Kung)为今天所做的阅读材料,以及波斯皮尔(Pospisil)(关于巴布亚新几内亚的Kapauku巴布亚人)。弗拉特金的第4章(关于肯尼亚的阿里阿勒),下节课-解释一般类型的物质体系背后的逻辑以及影响它们的因素-如李1994年(稀缺资源),或弗拉特金(阿里阿勒)阅读材料的生产部分,下节课-评估有关文化,文化进化等的理论或概括-如李1994年(稀缺资源)
