Relational Anthropology – When Observation Doesn’t Match the Script: An Anthropologist’s Reflection on Infant Care Narratives This post discusses the tension between dominant cultural narratives and caregivers' observations in infant care. It argues that rigid scripts may invalidate caregivers' insights about infant behavior, emphasizing the importance of recognizing lived experiences and bodily awareness as legitimate knowledge sources. Ultimately, it advocates for the integrity of personal observations in caregiving.

People are developmentally challenged, literally. Designed to be held, babies are put in cribs and playpens. Where they are safe, but fail to develop along human lines.

Relational Anthropology – When “Relational” Institutions Reproduce Control: The Hidden Traps Everywhere The article critiques various institutions marketed as supportive and relational, such as schools and youth programs, arguing they perpetuate control and coercion. Despite parents seeking emotional growth and community for their children, these institutions often enforce compliance and hierarchy, leading to a cycle of control rather than genuine relational development.

Control leads to shame, anxiety, and compliance, whereas Connection fosters trust, resilience, and authenticity.

Relational Anthropology – The Ritual of Disconnect: How “Standard-of-Care” Sleep Practices Coerce Caregivers and Disrupt the Dyad Chapter The Ritual of Disconnect: How “Standard-of-Care” Sleep Practices Coerce Caregivers and Disrupt the Dyad There is a moment in nearly every new family’s life when the cultural script collides with the biological one.The script says: separate, schedule, standardize.The biology says: stay close, cycle down together, regulate as one system. What we call “sleep training” in many Western contexts is not simply a set of recommendations. It is a ritual of behavioral control imposed on caregivers and infants alike. It is framed as safety, as science, as necessity — but its architecture reveals something else entirely: a system designed to regulate the…

42) Bonobo Cycle Breakers The post discusses the significance of Bonobos and other non-aggressive cultures in understanding dysregulation within society. It highlights how these groups demonstrate mechanisms for regulating aggression and power dynamics, contrasting them with societies that favor power for its own sake. Ultimately, it advocates for examining and learning from these cycle-breaking models.

It seems pretty obvious and simple actually. Certainly, throughout history, we have been able to recognize that following the lead of the least regulated person is a harmful practice. #bonobo #regulation #kung #inuit #respectwomen #survivor #anthropology #sociology

In #anthropology, there isn't a value-added weight given to evidence provided by theists vs. atheists. It's a study of mankind from their earliest times to the present. As such, there is no deist, theist, or atheist narratives.

Religion, primitive and its modern variants, is an outgrowth of a variety of 'ghost' cults by ancient man. Fear of the afterlife motivated primitive man. Today's religions equally exhibit this birthmark. #anthropology

The Living Axis: Deconstructing Bali's Sacred Beringin Updates from the field, cultural stories, and news on conservation efforts. Read the latest articles and interviews regarding Asia's sacred groves.

To encounter a Beringin tree in Bali is to feel the weight of centuries. 🌳
