Book Born Primitive in the Philippines

Download or read book Born Primitive in the Philippines written by Bag-etan and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an account that reads like an ethno­graphical novel, this journal of a five-year period in the life of a Buhid teen­ager provides a unique view of primitive life in the Philippines. Bag-etan, today twenty-two years old, liv­ing in the Siangi river area of Mindoro Is­land, and not entirely removed from the G-string culture he reveals in this extra­ordinary account, first met Severino N. Luna, the narrator of this story, in 1968, when he was about fifteen. From countless conversations, personal friendships with theMangyans, and careful study extending over a quarter of a century, Mr. Luna derived this life history and cultural story of Bag-etan. The boy is just entering adolescence when we meet him. He has recently escaped en­slavement and has been adopted by the chief of the Mangyan settlement. We come to know his friends and the girls to whom he is attracted; with him we attend feasts and funerals, build huts and prepare planting areas, harvest crops and snare wild animals. His story gives us a firsthand knowledge of community law, the forms of punishment and reward, and the superstitions that gov­ern every act of these fascinating primitives. This is a book about people so remote and so primitive that itwill startle and amaze the average reader. Students of ethnology will find here a unique instance of accultur­ation. And general readers interested in strange places and people will find this book delightful as well as fascinating.

Book Frontier Encounters

Download or read book Frontier Encounters written by Danilo Geiger and published by Iwgia. This book was released on 2008 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poverty and the maldistribution of land in core areas of developing countries, together with state schemes for the colonization of unruly frontiers, have forced indigenous peoples and settlers into an uneasy co-existence. Presenting material from various Asian and Latin American countries, Frontier Encounters examines factors that make for conflict and accommodation, studies the role of policy frames, and looks at promising mitigation strategies. The range of topics covered by the articles includes the texture of everyday-relations at the settlement frontier and the reconfiguration of ethnic hierarchies in tune with changing conquest cycles; settler land and resource use strategies; anti-settler riots and their politics; peace accords and what they can and cannot achieve as instruments for halting migration-induced violence; communal land titles as a promising avenue for conflict prevention and the empowerment of weak and defenseless groups; and the need for balancing indigenous rights advocacy with support and legal protection for disenfranchised parts of the settler population. Danilo Geiger has an M. A. in social anthropology from the University of Zurich, Switzerland and is a lecturer in political anthropology. His experience includes fieldwork in the Philippines and Indonesia and he is currently coordinating a four-year comparative research project on conflicts between indigenous communities and settlers in South and Southeast Asia.
