Oral Tradition A Study in Historical Methodology

Oral Tradition A Study in Historical Methodology

Oral traditions are historical sources of a special nature. Their special nature derives from the fact that they are unwritten sources couched in a form suitable for oral transmission and that their preservation depends on the powers of memory of successive generations of human beings. In many parts of the world inhabited by peoples without writing oral tradition forms the main available source for a reconstruction of the past. Do the special characteristics of oral traditions u unwritten information dependent on the memory of successive generations u invalidate them as sources of historical data? If not are there means for testing their reliability? Professor Vansina shows in Oral Tradition that with knowledge of the language and of the society the anthropologist and historian can extract or deduce the historical content of oral testimonies. Based on the author's many years of fieldwork in Africa this definitive work explores the possibility of reconstructing the history of non-literate peoples from their oral traditions surveys existing literature offers a typology of oral traditions and evaluates methods of collection and interpretation. On first publication Daniel McCall in the American Anthropologist called Oral Tradition a tour de force. Indeed this may well be the most significant work written on the relation of oral tradition to history in thirty yearsafor any field worker who intends to collect oral traditions this work is indispensable. | Oral Tradition A Study in Historical Methodology

Climate Justice and Collective Action

Climate Justice and Collective Action

This book develops a theory of climate cooperation designed for concerted action which emphasises the role and function of collectives in achieving shared climate goals. In debates on climate change action research focuses on three major goals: on mitigation on adaptation and on transformation. Even though these goals are accepted concerted action is still difficult to realize. Climate Justice and Collective Action provides an analysis of why this is the case and develops a theory of climate cooperation designed to overcome the existing roadblocks. Angela Kallhoff starts with a thorough analysis of failures of collective action in the context of climate change action. Taking inspiration from theories of water cooperation she then establishes a theory of joint action that reframes climate goals as shared goals and highlights the importance of adhering to principles of fairness. This also includes an exploration of the normative claims working in the background of climate cooperation. Finally Kallhoff puts forward proposals for a fair allocation of duties to cooperate with respect to climate goals. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of climate action climate justice environmental sociology and environmental philosophy and ethics more broadly.

The Mathematics of Collective Action

The Mathematics of Collective Action

Philosophers social scientists and laymen have used two perspectives in analyzing social action. One sees man's action as the result of causal forces and the other sees action as purposive and goal directed. Mathematical treatment of social action has shown this same dichotomy. Some models of behavior describe a causal process in which there is no place for intention or purpose. Most stochastic models of behavior whether individual or group are like this. Another body of work however employs purpose anticipation of some future state and action designed to maximize the proximity to some goal. Classical microeconomic theory statistical decision theory and game theory exemplify this direction. This book examines these two directions of work and makes original contributions to the second. An introductory chapter outlines these two bodies of work and casts them in a common frame to display their similarities and differences. Chapter 2 reviews at length recent work in stochastic processes that makes up the first body of work which sees social action as the resultant of causal forces. The remaining chapters develop a mathematical framework for the study of systems of social action using a purposive theoretical base. These chapters are designed particularly to contribute to the study of collective decisions a form of social action that has proved particularly challenging to theoretical analysis. First published in 1973 this became a significant work both in problem solving and in the future career of the author. It is of continuing importance to researchers and students interested in statistical analysis. | The Mathematics of Collective Action

The Biological Foundations of Action

The Biological Foundations of Action

Philosophers have traditionally assumed that the difference between active and passive movement could be explained by the presence or absence of an intention in the mind of the agent. This assumption has led to the neglect of many interesting active behaviors that do not depend on intentions including the mindless actions of humans and the activities of non-human animals. In this book Jones offers a broad account of agency that unifies these cases. The book addresses a range of questions including: When are movements properly attributed to whole agents rather than to their parts? What does it mean for an agent to guide its action? What distinguishes agents from other complex systems? What is the relationship between action and adaptive behavior? And why might the study of living systems be the key to understanding agency? This book makes an important contribution to current philosophical debate on the nature and origins of agency. It defines action as a uniquely biological process and recasts human intentional action as a specialized case of a broader and more common phenomenon than has been previously assumed. Uniting findings from philosophy cognitive science psychology biology computer science complexity theory and ethology this book will be of interest to students and scholars working in these areas. | The Biological Foundations of Action
