{"title":"An ethnographic expose of Mithun-human interrelationship among the Kuki community of Northeast India","authors":"Paul Lelen Haokip, None Maya M, D. Benjamin Haokip","doi":"10.1080/14631369.2023.2275588","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14631369.2023.2275588","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTUnrestrained consumption and a lack of a proper breeding ecosystem have depleted the variety and species count of mithun (Bos frontalis). Indigenous Kuki tribes have a unique relationship with mithun, reared in the semi-domestic countryside. For the Kuki community, a mithun is used during community festivals, as a bride price in marriages, to settle disputes, in land-deed covenants, and at death ceremonies. Mithun-human interrelationship lessens poverty, empowers community survival, guarantees the completion of critical cultural obligations, and maintains marital bonds in the Kuki community. The head of a mithun signifies solemnity and celebration in many cultural underpinnings. A white cock, a dog, a goat, a pig, and a mithun were sacrificial elements to appease the unseen spirits for good health and prosperity. While some Indigenous practices have faded with the arrival of Christianity, the cultural involvement of mithun persists to this date.KEYWORDS: Mithun-human interrelationshipKukiculturemithunbride price AcknowledgmentsThe authors acknowledge Christ University for providing access to articles through its library portals.

{"title":"Navigating boundaries of Japaneseness: identity options and constraints for ‘invisible’ multiethnic individuals in Japan","authors":"Yuna Sato","doi":"10.1080/14631369.2023.2269538","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14631369.2023.2269538","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTThis article examines how multiethnic individuals in Japan navigate both racial and ethno-national boundaries between Japanese and non-Japanese, and how these boundaries shape or constrain their identity option as Japanese. While previous research primarily focused on the (in)visibility of mixedness (race) as constraints, this study emphasises the role of ethnicity and nation in shaping their identity choices and constraints. Through interviews with 17 individuals born to Japanese and non-Japanese Asian parents, the study reveals that ethno-national boundaries often limit their self-identification as Japanese, even though their non-Japanese backgrounds are not visibly apparent. It challenges the dominant narrative surrounding ‘hāfu’, which emphasises a desire to be fully seen as Japanese, by revealing that some multiethnic individuals in Japan do not aspire to be perceived as entirely Japanese. Despite the contrasting nature of these two identifications, they both stem from the same issue ― the narrow conceptualisation of Japaneseness.KEYWORDS: Japanesenessmixed identitymixednessmixed racehāfumultiethnicmixed ethnicityethnic option AcknowledgmentsI would like to express my gratitude to the participants of this study. I also wish to extend my appreciation to Yoshikazu Shiobara, Yu-Anis Aruga, as well as the members of the seminars led by Gracia Liu-Farrer and Glenda Roberts at Waseda University, and Yoshikazu Shiobara’s seminar at Keio University, for reading and providing feedback on the previous version of the manuscript.

It provided the necessary resources, defenses, and transportation networks, allowing early societies to grow and flourish. States that were able to successfully harness these environmental features were often able to consolidate power and rule for a long run. The Ahoms, a migrant ethnic group, formed a powerful state in Assam from the 13th to 19th century, and their success was largely dependent on their ability to mobilize the natural resources of the region. This study will focus on the Ahom’s agendas regarding mobilization of natural resources and how they utilized these resources to build a strong and prosperous state. This article contributes to our understanding of the ways in which human societies can utilize natural resources and offers valuable insights into the ecological history of the Brahmaputra Valley.KEYWORDS: Ahom statenatural resourceresource mobilizationstate formationpre-colonial assamenvironmental history AcknowledgmentsWe are thankful to the Editor and the Reviewers for their insightful and quick comments on the earlier draft of this paper.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.
