The first stresses the role of culture in determining population parameters, while the second posits that demographic rates reflect adaptive behaviors that are the products of natural selection. Both sub-disciplines have achieved notable successes, but each has ignored and been actively disdainful of the other. This text attempts a rapprochement of anthropological demography and human evolutionary ecology through recognition of common research topics and the construction of a broad theoretical framework incorporating both cultural and biological motivation. Both these approaches are utilized to search for demographic strategies in varied cultural and temporal contexts ranging from African pastoralists through North American post-industrial societies. As such this book is relevant to cultural and biological anthropologists, demographers, sociologists, and historians.New perspectives on anthropological and social demography ;3.Culture, Biology, & Anthropological DemographyDemographic anthropologyHuman ecologyHuman behaviorMate selectionSocial ecologyDemographic anthropology.Human ecology.Human behavior.Mate selection.Social ecology.304.6Roth Eric Abella1051581UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457742203321Culture, biology, and anthropological demography2482198UNINA
