Australian Aboriginal Policy: Aboriginal Pressure Groups or Government Advisory Bodies?
Authors: Weaver Sally M.
Published: February 2015

Western democracies in the 1970s including Australia experimented with more permanent mechanisms for obtaining policy advice at the national level from their politically unorganized indigenous minorities. This paper examines some of the difficulties encountered when federal governments attempt to foster national Aboriginal organizations with possible pressure group functions. As a case study in federal policy‐making this two‐part paper analyzes the steps by which the Australian government terminated the initial experiment with the government‐created National Aboriginal Consultative Committee (1973–76) and, using selectively a commissioned report by Dr L. R. Hiatt (Part I), structured in detail two new bodies: the National Aboriginal Conference and the Council for Aboriginal Development (Part II). The paper argues that unless governments develop a serious policy of Aboriginal political development at the national level, governments will subvert their own goals by fostering Aboriginal organizations in which neither they nor Aboriginals have confidence.

PLAYING AT BEING MEN
Authors: Zimmer Laura J.
Published: February 2015

Among the Gende people in Madang Province the game of Last Card is played almost exclusively by young men. Requiring greater concentration and skill than the more popular games of Three Leaf and Seven, Last Card is rejected by older players on the grounds that it angers them when their carefully planned strategies are upset by the lucky draw of a less skilled opponent. This paper examines Last Card's appeal for young men and puts forward the proposition that, in many respects, Last Card is a functional equivalent of traditional male initiation. Providing frequent opportunity for public displays of self‐control and mastery, games of Last Card give otherwise undistinguished village youths a chance to attract the attentions of potential mates and brideprice supporters. For players who are especially talented (or lucky) Last Card is a source of income to be invested in exchange relations with other youths as well as older men and women. Finally, although older card players rarely play Last Card, they are keen observers of the game and will sponsor new players by giving them the initial stakes.

SINGING SUBJECTS AND SACRED OBJECTS: MORE ON MUNN'S ‘TRANSFORMATION OF SUBJECTS INTO OBJECTS’ IN CENTRAL AUSTRALIAN MYTH
Authors: Morton John
Published: February 2015

Nancy Munn's ‘The Transformation of Subjects into Objects in Walbiri and Pitjantjatjara Myth’ is a landmark in our understanding of the processes by which the Aboriginal world is created and sustained. Her paper is summarised and then related to similar concerns extant among the neighbouring Aranda. Munn's account of relationships between people and country is shown to be part of a wider reality encompassing all stages of the life‐cycle and characterised by a triple dialectic between ‘surface’ and ‘depth‘, between male and female, and between life and death. The study is preliminary to a psychological account of these dialectical processes to be published at a later date.

MISSIONARIES AND WAR LORDS: A STUDY OF CULTURAL INTERACTION ON ABAIANG AND TARAWA
Authors: Rennie Sandra
Published: February 2015

Hiram Bingham Jr, Protestant missionary, landed at Abaiang in the Gilbert Islands in November 1857. He came not only with a distinct missionary policy but also with an inner vision based on his ideals and his own personal interpretation of the Protestant Christian message. Bingham envisaged a loving community which was made up of both ruler and the ruled, including men and women, young and old.

For their part, Gilbertese on Abaiang did not share Bingham's view of God or the cosmos. They had their own spirits (Anti) and lived in a world punctuated by wars. Given their limited contact with Europeans, most Islanders on Abaiang and Tarawa saw little relevance in the particular type of Christianity that Bingham espoused and attempted to convey to them.

Yet despite this dissonance, two war chiefs (uea) began a communication. This communication was meaningful to their side but was not shared by the other. Bingham was perceived in a way he would not have wanted and he, in turn, misinterpreted the entire situation in Abaiang and nearby Tarawa. The result was that the missionaries became embroiled in the wars and failed to usher in a reign of peace and benevolence.
CONSTRUCTION SACRIFICE, RUMORS AND KIDNAPPING SCARES IN MANGGARAI: FURTHER COMPARATIVE NOTES FROM FLORES
Authors: Erb Maribeth
Published: February 2015

R.A. Drake in Oceania (59:269–79) analyzed rumor panics in Borneo about the purported need for children's heads in concrete construction initiated by the state, as a form of ideological warfare. These rumors are ways of dealing with ambiguous situations and expressions of anxiety. The plausibility of these rumors, he argues, lies in the experience that tribal Borneo has had with state governments, most particularly during colonial times when head‐hunting activities were suppressed. The present article looks at a similar rumor complex found in the district of Manggarai in Western Flores within a different cultural and historical context. Manggarai rumor panics center on European missionaries who have been in their region since the beginning of the century and who have been responsible for most of the concrete construction there. This rumor expresses the Manggarai's ambivalence towards foreigners which may be particularly understood, also, in light of their experience with slave‐raiders up to the beginning of this century.

The Snake Bone Case: Law, Custom, and Justice in a Papua New Guinea Village Court
Authors: Goddard Michael
Published: February 2015

One of the outcomes of judgmental administrative attitudes toward indigenous praxis in colonial Papua New Guinea was a convention that an antagonistic relationship existed between European law and ‘native custom‘. By the end of the colonial period the defence of ‘custom’ had become part of an anti‐colonial polemic among indigenous intellectuals and politicians. The Village Court system was established in this rhetorical climate. Its mission, reinforced in legislation, included the favouring of ‘custom’ in the dispensation of justice. Subsequent academic and journalistic commentaries on the development of the Village Court system have perpetuated a binary notion of the relationship between law and custom, whether portraying it as antagonistic or articulatory. This article focuses on a single case from a Port Moresby village court, involving an accusation of attempted sorcery. The case raises questions not only about the validity of the discursive law/custom dichotomy but about the notion of custom itself in the context of the dispensation of justice in contemporary Papua New Guinea. It is suggested that in village court praxis, the notion of custom serves the exploitation of village court officers as cheap labour in the justice system.
The Thrill of the Line, the String, and the Frond, or why the Abelam are a non‐cloth culture
Authors: Hauser‐SchäUblin Brigitta
Published: February 2015

With few exceptions, weaving was traditionally unknown in Oceania. Yet soft, pliable bark cloth — often richly decorated — was produced, and used like textiles, especially in Polynesia. This cloth was artistically draped around objects and people and in turn ritually removed. These cloth cultures are based on a system of aesthetic values radically different from those of inland groups especially in New Guinea.

This article demonstrates that within Oceania there are two different cultural traditions with opposing aesthetic fundamental values. Taking as an example the Abelam (East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea) whose aesthetics is based on the principle of ‘visual open‐work’, the fundamental aesthetic values of a non‐cloth culture and the gender specific attributes associated with them are analyzed.
Binding in the Pacific: Between Loops and Knots
Authors: Kuchler Susanne
Published: February 2015

The paper argues that the prevailing use of the term ‘template’ in the investigation of the reproductive and generative capacity of artworks in Oceania is profoundly misleading and in need of replacing. Tracing a similar dilemma in New Genetics and Biology, the paper argues that the contemporary fascination with the knot as a model of non‐linear, topological systems enables us to look at the importance of binding in the creation of the figural in Oceanic art from a new perspective. This paper intends to open up the investigation of binding as technique and as patterned design in its distinct articulation in artifactual form across the Pacific by raising questions about the relation between the figural and the social. The material provoking the rethinking of the difference created by material articulation of the mundane, personal, and yet also profoundly mathematical technique of binding in society and culture is that ofmalangganfigurative art.
Death and the Sacrifice of Signs: ‘Measuring’ the Dead in Tana Toraja
Authors: Tsintjilonis Dimitri
Published: February 2015

Suggesting the existence of an intrinsic connection between sacrifice and embodiment, this article considers the meaning and symbolism of traditional mortuary rituals among the Sa'dan Toraja of Indonesia. Manifesting different ways of being, these rituals engender different ways of dying. Focusing on the sacrificial patterns of their engenderment, I discuss these differences and the way in which they are thought to ‘emerge from the body’.

Longing for Completion: toward an Aesthetics of Work in Suau
Authors: Demian Melissa
Published: February 2015

Aesthetics is a relatively recent ‘discovery’ for anthropologists, and on the whole has been limited to analyses of art and other forms of material culture. This article asks whether aesthetics might not also be applied to ‘cultural images’, or the forms in which people imagine their relationships to be made manifest. I take as my example gendered working relationships in the Suau region of Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea. In Suau the work of men and women is contingent upon, and assessed according to, values which appear at the juncture of particular relational configurations. Work is in fact the medium through which these relationships are made visible and ‘real’ to those who witness it. The forms taken by work refer to a morally freighted domain of values and interpretations, and the appropriate performance of work thus maintains an image of sociality as it is ideally conceived.

Dangerous Visions: the Cassowary as Good to Think and Good to Remember among the Anganen
Authors: Nihill Michael
Published: February 2015

The cassowary, although no longer a popular animal for possession or gift exchange in contemporary Anganen, is good to think in the Lévi‐Straussian sense and good to remember. Its excessive violence may stand for the violence of which men are capable. This is the case for inter‐group warfare. It also refers to intra‐community hostilities, not sharing cassowary meat being a frequent cause for clan fission and an agonistic exchange called rawa where those conceptualised as brothers engage in the competitive slaughter of, ideally, cassowaries. The article primarily concerns rawa and its extraordinary character. It is typified by paradox and danger despite the displacement of anger from direct attacks on humans to the slaughter of animals. Rawa protagonists throw blood and uncleaned entrails at each other while shouting the vilest of insults in the hope the opponent will eventually not respond and lose the contest. However, while escalation of a dispute to the level of rawa is evidence of failed mediation, this competitive exchange establishes the condition for eventual intervention and, via a communal feast of the slaughtered animals, the resumption of strong community relations, including those between the former protagonists. The final ethnographic section focuses on the fact that warfare and rawa were prohibited by the Australian Administration. Anganen men feel they were disenfranchised by the Administration, in part because they were denied access to the culturally lauded male pursuits of being warriors and rawa men. As such, that cassowaries are thought to have been much more popular in the past is central to my claim they are good to remember.
Photos in Wiradjuri Biscuit Tins: Negotiating Relatedness and Validating Colonial Histories
Authors: Macdonald Gaynor
Published: February 2015

Tins, cardboard boxes and albums hold one of the most prized and jealously guarded of all Wiradjuri Aboriginal ‘material’ possessions, the family photos. They are used to tell and recall stories, introduce people to kin, as items of exchange and as important statements of identity and belonging in the spatial and temporal politics of kinship. In this ethnographic study of Indigenous photo collections in south‐east Australia, I argue that photos have the capacity to extend the face‐to‐face nature of kin‐relatedness through time and space; they are important in negotiations of sociality; and they validate the past in contexts in which recourse to both myth and history have been constrained.
The Death of a Strong, Great, Bad Man: An Ethnography Of Soul Incorporation
Authors: Mimica Jadran
Published: February 2015

The paper is a detailed description and interpretation of the death of a Yagwoia‐Angan great killer‐warrior and of two soul‐incorporation rites performed in the period preceding the interment of the corpse. The interpretive framework is a synthesis of existential phenomenology, psychoanalysis, and archetypal psychology articulated through the cosmo‐ontological specificities of the Yagwoia life‐world. The paper elucidates the dynamics and originality of the Yagwoia sense of the world as a self‐generative bodily totality (world‐body) which incessantly reproduces itself through its internal constitutive parts, individual humans and their group‐containers. This dynamic is simultaneously self‐devouring and self‐copulating. Its most apposite characterisation is the archetypal image of ouroboros, the serpent that eats its own tail. Following the ontological clarifications of the Yagwoia‐Angan life‐world the main theme of the paper unfolds as a hermeneutic synthesis of concrete ethnographic descriptions and critical interpretations of the Yagwoia existential process made manifest in concrete experiences and practices of the living and the dead.

Fellowship and Citizenship as Models of National Community: United Church Women's Fellowship in Ranongga, Solomon Islands
Authors: McDougall Debra
Published: February 2015

From humble beginnings in the 1960s, the United Church Women's Fellowship (UCWF) is now viewed as one of the most effective organizations on the island of Ranongga (Western Province, Solomon Islands). This essay considers reasons for the success of women's fellowship in Ranongga, focusing on the distinctive position of women in gendered local and translocal forms of social organization. Far from being isolated from the outside world, Ranonggan women have long been engaged in drawing outsiders into local communities. I explore this theme in narratives of Christian conversion and of the beginning of women's fellowship; I also consider the practices of local and national women's fellowship groups that work to constitute unified communities out of diverse groups of people. My discussion of Ranonggan women's fellowship illustrates local dynamics of community‐making that do not map easily on to dominant models of nation‐states and ethnic groups. I ask whether the UCWF provides an alternative model for thinking about larger‐scale political formations, particularly in the Solomons. This question is especially relevant considering the significant contribution that women's Christian organizations have made in efforts to reconstitute a national community in the context of the ongoing political crisis in Solomon Islands.

Introduction to Relations in Multicultural Fiji: The Dynamics of Articulations, Transformations and Positionings
Authors: Hermann Elfriede , Kempf Wolfgang
Published: February 2015

Focussing on three historically constituted domains of relations of great importance to all inhabitants of the Fiji Islands, this essay draws attention to cultural modalities and political strategies implicated in shaping these. By way of introduction to six papers which together with this preface and an epilogue are presented in the form of a collection, we distinguish three domains of relations: those between past and present; those between people and land; and (not least) those between people. We argue that social actors in Fiji reflect on and deal with such relations in all of which they are simultaneously embodied, i.e. they articulate, transform and position these relations with a view to shaping their identity and place in today's multicultural (and indeed intercultural) Fiji. We conclude that there operates a complex of dialectical processes: while social actors work on relations that exert influence on them, there is also a dynamic in play between articulations, transformations and positionings of relations.
Third Wave Evangelism and the Politics of the Global in Papua New Guinea: Spiritual Warfare and the Recreation of Place in Telefolmin
Authors: Jorgensen Dan
Published: February 2015

Third Wave pentecostalist theology envisages a global struggle against satanic forces as ‘spiritual warfare.’ Here I examine an instance of spiritual warfare that targeted the village of Telefolip as part of a national campaign. Embracing evangelical doctrines of the dependence of ‘physical development’ on ‘spiritual development,’ villagers burned ancestral relics and purport to have found ‘uranium gas’ on the site of a former spirit house. This discovery is held to be full of promise for the future: as a valuable (if imaginary) resource in Israel's struggles, uranium gas offers villagers wealth and a means of asserting local centrality in global terms. I conclude by arguing that an understanding of the conjunction of spiritual warfare's aims with villagers' hopes for a place in the world beyond the village is crucial to analyzing the dynamics of pentecostalist world‐breaking and world‐making.
In vitro and in vivo study of hazardous effects of Ag nanoparticles and Arginine‐treated multi walled carbon nanotubes on blood cells: Application in hemodialysis membranes

Published: February 2015

One of the novel applications of the nanostructures is the modification and development of membranes for hemocompatibility of hemodialysis. The toxicity and hemocompatibility of Ag nanoparticles and arginine‐treated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT‐Arg) and possibility of their application in membrane technology are investigated here. MWNT‐Arg is prepared by amidation reactions, followed by characterization by FTIR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed a good hemocompatibility and the hemolytic rates in the presence of both MWNT‐Arg and Ag nanoparticles. The hemolytic rate of Ag nanoparticles was lower than that of MWNT‐Arg. In vivo study revealed that Ag nanoparticle and MWNT‐Arg decreased Hematocrit and mean number of red blood cells (RBC) statistically at concentration of 100 µg mL−1. The mean decrease of RBC and Hematocrit for Ag nanoparticles (18% for Hematocrit and 5.8 × 1,000,000/µL) was more than MWNT‐Arg (20% for Hematocrit and 6 × 1000000/µL). In addition, MWNT‐Arg and Ag nanoparticles had a direct influence on the White Blood Cell (WBC) drop. Regarding both nanostructures, although the number of WBC increased in initial concentration, it decreased significantly at the concentration of 100 µg mL−1. It is worth mentioning that the toxicity of Ag nanoparticle on WBC was higher than that of MWNT‐Arg. Because of potent antimicrobial activity and relative hemocompatibility, MWNT‐Arg could be considered as a new candidate for biomedical applications in the future especially for hemodialysis membranes. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Successful implementation of a rural extracorporeal photopheresis program for the treatment of cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma and chronic graft‐versus‐host disease in a rural hospital
Authors: Weber Litchia L. , Dunbar Nancy M. , Meehan Kenneth R. , Szczepiorkowski Zbigniew M. , Lansigan Frederick
Published: February 2015

Objective

Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is currently standard therapy for cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL) and Graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD). Of the many challenges associated with outpatient ECP treatments, commuter travel to capable facilities can fragment and compromise the patient care. In 2008, our hospital implemented an ECP program providing patients to a treatment center over 120 minutes away. This study was undertaken to describe our experience with the establishment of a regional ECP program.

Methods

A retrospective review using a standardized template was performed of patients treated from May 2008 to 2012. The response to treatment was analyzed after a minimum of eight procedures. A partial response to treatment in individuals with CTCL, was more than 50% skin improvement, and GVHD, a reduction in steroid dose by 50%, liver function test improvement or documented improvement in skin findings.

Results

Of the 34 patients treated, 11 were for CTCL and 23 for GVHD. 95.8% of the 1,071 planned procedures were successfully. The average procedure time was 186 min for the UVAR‐XTSTM and 93 min for the CELLEXTM. Patients travelled a median of 65.7 miles (range 4–133 miles). The median duration of therapy was 6 months (range 2–23) for CTCL and 5 months (range 1–27) for GVHD. A clinical benefit was observed in 7 of 11 (63.6%) patients with CTCL and in 15 of 23 (65.2%) with GVHD.

Conclusion

Our regional ECP program was a viable option in improving access to care for patients requiring treatment for CTCL and chronic GVHD. J. Clin. Apheresis 30:359–363, 2015. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Satisfaction and Functional Outcome with “Self-Care” for the Management of Fifth Metacarpal Fractures
Authors: Gamble David , Jenkins Paul J. , Edge Martyn J. , Gilmour Alisdair , Anthony Iain C. , Nugent Margaret , Rymaszewski Lech A.
Published: February 2015

Background

Fifth metacarpal fractures are common and comprise a significant proportion of traditional orthopaedic fracture clinic workload. We reviewed the functional outcome and the satisfaction of patients managed with a new protocol that promoted “self-care” and resulted in the discharge of most of these patients from the emergency department with no further follow-up.

Methods

A retrospective study was performed of patients discharged with a fifth metacarpal fracture between April 2012 to October 2012. A postal questionnaire was sent to each patient, followed by a telephone call. Patient-reported outcome measures (EQ-5D, QuickDASH) and patient satisfaction were assessed. Of the 167 patients eligible for the study, 5 were excluded. Of the remaining 162, 64 were uncontactable or declined to participate. The mean follow-up time was 21.6 months (SD 1.9, range 18.1 to 24.7).

Results

The median EQ-5D health index score was 0.87 (IQR 0.74 to 1.00), and the median QuickDASH score was 2.3 (IQR 0 to 6.8). Seventy-nine (80.6 %) patients were satisfied with the outcome of their injury, while 83 (84.9 %) reported being satisfied with the process. There was no difference between those with a fracture or those without a fracture in EQ-5D ( p=0.307) or QuickDASH ( p=0.820).

Conclusion

Fifth metacarpal fractures can be managed effectively through an Emergency Department protocol without any formal orthopaedic follow-up. This pathway lead to excellent patient-reported outcome measures and patient satisfaction. This protocol has reduced unnecessary hospital attendances for patients and increased the time available for clinicians to deal with more challenging injuries.
