Laid in loosely at front is a printed slip reading, "With the compliments of Cambridge University Press, American Branch . Publication: 31 January, 1975." xii, 238 p. (Cambridge studies in social anthropology ; 10). Published at $14.95. Summary: This is a study of the effects of "modernization" on the social and economic world of women in Morocco. Vanessa Maher suggests that three systems of social stratification modify one another: a system of classes based on relation to the means of production; a system of estates, differentiated by inherited status; and a system of segmentary tribal groups, based on territorial rights. Although all Moroccans use all these systems on different occasions it is the women who, faced with their own exclusion from wage-earning, along with the instability of marriage and the inadequacy of most family incomes, respond by perpetually reconstituting the groups on which they must depend, those based on territorial rights and putative kinship. By observing these social networks, Maher has been able to identify part of what inhibits the development of class consciousness, and what favours a clientistic political structure. Contents: Introduction --- 1. The background -- 2. Estates, tribal groups and the market today -- 3. Patron-client relations -- 4. How it looks on the ground -- 5.

Condizione: Good. Berg Publishers, 1992. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Name on inside covers. Shows some signs of wear, and may have some markings on the inside.On the whole, the debates surrounding the issues of breast-feeding - often reflecting ethnographic and ill-informed medical and demographic approaches - have failed to treat the deeper issues. The significance of breast-feeding reaches far beyond its biological function; in fact, the authors of this volume argue, there is nothing `natural' about breast-feeding itself. On the contrary, attitudes and practices are socially determined, and breast-feeding has to be seen as an essential element in the cultural construction of sexuality. This volume offers an `ethnography' of breast-feeding by examining cultural norms and practices in a number of European and non-European societies, thus presenting valuable and often astonishing empirical material that is not otherwise readily available. The highly original focus of this volume therefore throws new light on gender and on social relationships in general. 224 pp.
