摘要

我们从一个谜题开始：在萨哈共和国（雅库特）的偏远北极地区，为什么许多驯鹿放牧家庭被排除在官方的“游牧家庭”福利之外？共和国的《游牧家庭法》本应支持土著少数民族过“传统”生活方式，但它经常失败。我们确定了三种工作中的家庭结构模型，每种模型或多或少都与物理环境和生产过程的流动性相匹配。虽然我们的实地调查揭示了土著人对关联性的高度灵活和包罗万象的理解，但对城市官员法律的分析表明，这些法律是基于植根于俄罗斯术语中的未经审查的“家庭”概念，基于核心家庭的狭隘观念，而不是基于在共享空间中劳动力的互补分配。我们建议，法律举措应包括更广泛的人种学基础，以更好地理解流行病概念，同时咨询受影响最直接的当地人。

Where Is the Nomadic Family? Rigid Laws and Flexible Tundra Life in North-East Siberia

We start from a puzzle: in remote Arctic regions of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), why are many reindeer-herding families excluded from official 'nomadic family' benefits? The Republic's Nomadic Family Law is supposed to support indigenous minorities leading a 'traditional' lifestyle, but it often fails. We identify three models of family structure at work, each matching the fluidity of the physical environment and productive process more or less realistically. While our fieldwork reveals a highly flexible and all-embracing indigenous understanding of relatedness, analysis of the urban officials' laws show them to be based on unexamined concepts of 'family' rooted in Russian terminology and based on narrow ideas of the nuclear family rather than on the complementary distribution of labour across a shared space. We suggest that legal initiatives should include a wider ethnographic basis to provide a better understanding of emic concepts, while also consulting the local people most directly affected.
