Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 1076-1080 pages with table, chart and cited references. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Volume 56, number 6 Part 1. First edition. In his article Lappish Herding Leader: A Structural Analysis, Robert Pehrson studies the implications and basis for leadership in the small group of Konkama Lapps of Karesuando Parish, Sweden. Perhson's thesis asks whether there are inherent or similar characteristics of leadership within other small groups or bands. Because bilateralism is a feature of the Konkama Lapp society (where there is gender equality in regards to rights such as inheritance and property) and leadership can be transmitted bilaterally, Pehrson questions if there is a connection between bilateral descent and mode of leadership in Konkama. Perhrson sees that the traditional ties of kinship and local group affiliations that structure the 'Konkama Lapp Society' are manifested in the persona of the Lappish herding leader. The leader, who is male, can be defined as one who heads a socio-economic group whose members are unified by ties of kinship and who live in proximity to each other in order to pursue a common economic goal the maintenance and propagation of their reindeer herd. Although there is no concise Lapp definition of leader, Pehrson notes that a leader's characteristics and selection criteria include: maturity (rather than seniority), having siblings and solidarity with one's siblings, membership in the wealthiest sibling group (wealth is determined by the number of reindeer that are owned), birth order, marriage and children. The article attempts to show that marriage, fertility, and wealth relate to structural principles of sibling solidarity, birth order and bilateral decent that are integral components for the selection of the Lappish herding leader. Perhrson contends that other bilaterally organized societies should be studied to see if any correlations can be found between modes of leadership and bilateralism. Condition: Spine sunned, old institution stamp to front wrapper, corners bumped else very good.
