On Feminist Nomadism
Barry Smith T o grasp the full poignancy of Rosi Braidotti's piece, and of the sad strain of academic feminism that it represents, it is necessary to think back to a time, not·so long ago, when children still represented the primary form of social insurance for almost all groups in society. This was a time, too, when infant mortality rates were by modem standards atrociously high, giving rise t...
متن کاملTowards a Generative Model of Nomadism
The anthropological study of nomadism should be approached via cultural ecology and by the generative method. A preliminary generative model is presented, consisting of a series of seven rules. The first five are derived from the literature and are concerned with group formation. The last two are proposed by the writer with a view to making the articulation between group formation, social ecolo...

Her slowness is probably explained by long isolation, poor training, and mental deficiency. Comparison with another case, a girl found in Ohio at the same age and under similar circumstances, suggests that Anna was deficient, and that, ...
متن کاملA note on the derivation of epidemic final sizes.
Final size relations are known for many epidemic models. The derivations are often tedious and difficult, involving indirect methods to solve a system of integro-differential equations. Often when the details of the disease or population change, the final size relation does not. An alternate approach to deriving final sizes has been suggested. This approach directly considers the underlying sto...
متن کاملFinal note on why genetic correlations are not squared.
Correlations between related persons (twins, siblings, parent-child, etc.) should not be squared in order to determine the proportion of variance they have in common. The correlation coefficient itself is this proportion. We are not using the correlation to predict the variance in a given trait for one set of persons from a knowledge of the trait values of their relatives, but to express the de...
