Should She Stay In The Tribe Case Study

The parties involved in this case analysis are the Makah tribe, the young members of the Makah tribe, the elder members of the Makah tribe, the Makah tribal leaders, the gray whales, and the environmental community. The moral issues for this case analysis are the safeguarding of the gray whale population, which was on the decline back in the 1920’s. Another moral issue is the fact that the Makah tribal leaders want to use whale hunting as a way of re-establishing traditions, pride, and discipline with the young men of the tribe.

“Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging”, by Sebastian Junger, is an insightful examination of the flaws of a modernized society. Through scientific evidence and first-hand accounts, the book explores the correlation between a nation’s level of modernness and it’s rates of mental illness. Junger careful choice of words and phrasing shows that he is not arguing that a tribal society is better than a modern society- as “there’s no use arguing that modern society isn’t a kind of paradise” - but is instead proposing a blend of both society’s beneficial qualities (Junger 108). His chronological writing style within “Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging” allows for the development of his argument. Particularly focusing upon Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in veterans, Junger utilizes accounts from Vietnam War and World Wars to bring light to the “antihuman society” set forth by our modernized ways (Junger 93).

Just like men, women were seeking for a better life, economic, and freedom of religion. Perhaps, they were treated as equally as men, if there were not enough food, women would not be the first one to eat or get full. But at the same time, the amount of works they putted in were not, or even more, less than what men did. For example, Judith Giton, she was one of the refugees, wrote:” I have been six months without tasting bread, working like ground slave; and I have even passed three and four years without having food when I wanted it.” The author used this evidence to show the audience the role of women in the early age of America, they still need to put a lot of effort into farming and building the community, but then their contributions were totally ignored by the society. Furthermore, the introduction of “civilization”-European influence-brought about decline in female status, specifically Indians females, they were viewed as more susceptible to religion and moral coercion, the white disagreed of strong roles for women, they distorted images of Indian women as well as men to support their own political and economic drives to dominate, and drain Indian cultures. Speaking of an Indian woman, Tekakawiha (Lily of the Mohawks), she joined the Catholic Church at the age of eighteen, but still then earned her the enmity of tribal leader. This is showing the women do play a major roles within Indian tribe, as it was their cultures and religion (such as mother of earth), but the the whites wanted males to dominate politically and economically, then this believes started to fade, not as vivid as

In Life, you can’t force people to do something they don’t want to do or be someone they’re not. In the historical fiction novel The Poisonwood Bible, Orleanna Price experiences such a rough quarrel and becomes cut off from her hometown. Orleanna Price who is Nathan’s wife becomes indignant with her husband’s decisions to take a missionary trip to the Congo. She was a very intelligent woman but because of her husband behavior she is sometimes forced to hide her own talents from others. The Price family experience while being in the Congo started to drift their family away from each other as a whole. They were not mentally or physically stable to fit in Africa but with the help of others they were able to get along in the Congo. Mama Mwanza

Do peace, unity, and equality still exist this day in time among groups of people? Are we influenced by our environment to associate our way of seeing things and create language based on that fact? How we view the environment around us helps shape our understanding by creating language to give it meaning. Based on the linguistic data of the recently discovered tribe, we can draw conclusions about the tribe’s climate and terrain, diet, views on family and children, system of government and attitude towards war. This data shows that the lost tribe was an isolated group that lived in a valley, coexisted in unison, valued life, had high regards for

“There one of them asked me why I wept; I could hardly tell what to say, yet I answered they would kill me. ‘No,’ said he, ‘none will hurt you.’ Then came one of them and gave me two spoonfuls of meal to comfort me, and another gave me half pint of peas which was more worth than many bushels at another time.”(71). The Natives showed her great affection with was not expected of them from her puritanical views. Although she knew no harm would come to her she expected to leave “them” as soon as possible.

The strange diseases that went throughout the tribe were known as smallpox, pneumonia, influenza, malaria, measles, cholera, and whooping cough. Little did the family know, that their mother (Amadahy) was coming down with smallpox? They had no doctors to help Amadahy. All they could do was pray and sing for their poor mother. Adsila was growing eminently worried for Amadahy’s

The use of a case for exam purposes can help the instructor understand a student’s depth of understanding of the material. Points can be taken off if they fail to identify the ethical issues and important stakeholders or justify their decision relative to their stated moral philosophy base. To help you with this exam type we have included three cases that can be used for exam purposes.

This case had several ethical, legal and professional ramifications, including aspects of cultural differences between non-indigenous and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients. There is a requirement for counsellors to actively understand the diverse cultural backgrounds, and differences in behaviour of their clients; stated in; The Australian Counselling Association (ACA-Au., 2008); Code of Conduct (2, 2.1), American Counselling Association (ACA, US, 2005), Code of Ethics (A.2c; B.1a; c.2a) and Education Queensland (EQ) Code of Conduct (1994) 2.1.1, and Education Queensland (EQ) (2008) Ethical Code, and Watson, Herlihy & Pierce, 2006.

Leadership is defined in Webster’s Dictionary as the “action of leading a group of people or an organization.” Leadership is also the ability to set trends, inspire, motivate, and sway others to produce desired results. There are different styles and ways of performing leadership and a good leader has the ability to take ordinary people, put them all together, and hopefully yield successful results. For organizations to have sustained results from their performance there must be a good balance of business insight, technical and interpersonal skills, and good team dynamics. A leader must know how to use all these areas as well as trust and communicate with their people in

There are hundreds of Native American tribes and millions of people that are within North America that identify themselves as Native Americans. Each tribe has their own unique customs, language, and myths. However, within the confines of this paper I will take a broad view with regards to Native American customs and traditions from a small sample of tribes that were observed prior to the vast expansion of colonizing the west.

In the first place, the uncontacted tribes are facing new diseases that are being brought to them. A tribe in Brazil, which was flourishing with many people in it, was nearly wiped out with

In this essay, I will be creating a discourse on anthropological activism and how it relates to the basic principles of anthropology, whilst referring to the case study Activist Anthropologists by Victoria Sanford. I will provide my anthropological views on this subject based on my research.
