    Memetik Evrim

    Kültürü evrimci bir bakis acisina göre anlamaya calisanlar icin asil soru sudur Kültür eslenir mi, yoksa kültürel evrim sadece kalitimdan mi ibarettir Diger bir deyisle, her nesil, sosyal iletim yoluyla kendine benzeyeni yaratabilme kapasitesinin yani sira, kültürel varliklarin eslenmesi sonucu bir önceki nesle baglandigi icin mi onu andirmaktadir Kültürel benzerlik sosyal bir olguysa, memetikcilerin öngördügü üzere bireyler arasindaki bilginin özel birimlerinin eslenmesiyle ilgili midir Ya da, tarihin seyri, toplumsal güclerin neden oldugu bir sürec degil de, önceki tecrübelere dayali inanc ve degerlerin iliskisi sonucunda mi olusmustur Belki de kültürel tezahürler arasinda zaman icinde kabul edilen benzerliklere genler yol aciyordun Bu genler toplumsal düzeyde üretilen bir olgu icinde hareket ederler; örnegin, sürekli ayni davranisi sergilemesi icin beyni evrensel özelliklerle donatmak gibi... Aunger bu kitabinda, Dawkins tarafindan ortaya atilan mem kavramini detaylariyla analiz ediyor. Memetik Evrimin temel hedefi, menilerin genler gibi elle tutulur, fiziksel olarak ölcülebilir özelliklerini bulmak. Darwinci evrim mekanizmalarinin detayli incelemesinin yer aldigi kitapta yazar, menilerin DNAlar gibi kopyalanmasindan daha cok prionlar gibi cogaldigini öne sürüyor. Aungere göre memlerin fiziksel varligi da, tipki internetteki ag gibi, birbirine bagli elektrik sinyalleri gibi degerlendirilmelidir.

  6. Reflexive Ethnographic Science
    1. Robert , Aunger

    Reflexive Ethnographic Science

    Aunger proposes a solution to a fundamental debate in contemporary ethnography: the source of ethnographic authority. He advocates the method of reflexive analysis as a new way of doing ethnography and making it a more effective scientific endeavor. Reflexive Ethnographic Science constitutes a foil to those in cultural studies and related fields who deride the possibility of verifiable ethnographic representations. Aunger's new work promises to reinvigorate ethnographic research and methods by a unique combination of traditional and postmodern objectives, through the reflexive achievement of authority. He explains how reflexive analysis requires changes in standard ethnographic practice in terms of data collection, analysis, and presentation. Using this method, the author offers a case study of the food taboos in a multi-ethnic population in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which includes pygmy foragers and their horticulturalist Bantu neighbors. This book is a valuable tool for graduate level courses in ethnographic method and theory, and a key reference for researchers in the social sciences who employ interviewing, participant observation methods, and multivariate statistical models, including anthropology, sociology, and psychology.
