Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 806-816 pages with tables and cited references. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Volume 61, number 5 Part 1. First edition. Dunning's article addresses Steward's theory which suggests that demographic form and social system depend on ecology. Th…e article presents ethnographic data that help to support Steward's ecological theory. More specifically, the data comes from studies done on the Northern Ojibwa. Dunning's article suggests the importance of resident rules for society. He describes in great detail the resident patterns of the Ojibwa as he presents much data from his studies. Residence for the Ojibwa change seasonally as families move from the husband's family's domain to the wife's or vice versa. The data showed that the residence patterns were also changing over time because there started to be a high proportion of uxorilocal residence in a patrilateral hunting society with patronymic totem groups. Dunning suggests the reason for this phenomenon rests in the fact that in former times of small population concentrations and low male numbers, uxorilocal residence was crucial to the survival of these trapping bands. But further study and data showed a change to almost complete virilocal residence. Dunning offers government subsides as the impetus for the change as the provided monies freed the Ojibwa from the rigid demographic control caused by the environment. Dunning then goes on to suggest that a great division exists between cross and parallel relationships. Despite the marriage between cross-cousins, cross relationships are intentionally avoided. Relationships between parallel members results in more friendly, open interactions that those between cross relatives. Condition: Spine sunned, previous owner's name to front wrapper, corners bumped else very good.
