Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis fungsi pemberian Tuor dalam adat Mandailing di Jorong Ranto Panjang Nagari Rabi Jonggor Kecamatan Gunung Tuleh Kabupaten Pasaman Barat. Fokus dari artikel ini yaitu pemberian Tuor (maskawin) dari pihak laki-laki kepada perempuan dalam adat perkawinan orang Mandailing di Ranto Panjang. Mengingat masyarakat yang berda di Pasaman Barat memiliki suku bangsa yang beragam seperti Minang, Melayu, Mandailing dan Jawa yang memiliki kebudayaan berbeda-beda disetiap daerahnya. Akan tetapi pemeberian Tuor tetap dipertahankan dan selalu ada sebelum upacara perkawinan orang Mandailing baik yang menikah dengan sesama suku mandailing maupun tidak dengan orang Mandailing. Acara penetapan Tuor dilaksanakan pada acara Marsapa (meminang). Teori yang digunakan dalam artikel ini adalah teori fungsionalisme yang dikemukakan oleh Bronislaw Malinowski. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menerapkan pendekatan kualitatif dengan tipe Etnografi. Informan dipilih secara pusposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik wawancara mendalam (indepth interview), observasi, studi dokumen. Teknik analisis data mengacu pada teknik analisis etnografi yang dikembangkan oleh Miles dan Huberman melipiti: data reduction (reduksi data), data displey (penyajian data), verification analysis (menarik kesimpulan). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan fungsi pemberian Tuor pada masyarakat Mandailing di Ranto Panjang adalah: (1) penguatan ikatan dua keluarga; (2) menjunjung tinggi tradisi yang diwarisi dari generasi terdahulu; (3) menghormati orang tua si gadis; (4) penghargaan terhadap status pendidikan perempuan; dan (5) mendapatkan legalitas perkawinan secara adat.

Bronisław Malinowski sought throughout his career to make a scientific contribution to understanding and reforming the international order by making analogies with ‘primitive’ societies. His ethnographic material was important to Marcel Mauss’s internationalist project in The Gift, and can still provide lessons in internationalism. This article examines Malinowski’s ethnographic figuration of ‘the evolution of primitive international law’, and documents a set of intellectual exchanges between him and Mauss. This illuminates an unexpected avenue of Durkheimian influence on British social anthropology and situates Malinowski in contemporary imperial and internationalist debates. Despite Malinowski’s early criticism of Émile Durkheim’s account of ‘collective ideas’, his later writing shows the (unacknowledged) influence of Mauss’s understandings of obligation and intersocial exchange. Unearthing the terms of this exchange between Malinowski and Mauss helps to recover the central normative lesson of the former’s final book and his ethnographic work as a whole – namely, that sovereignty should be dethroned as an organising principle of international order in favour of intersocial exchange and the obligations it produces.

Resumo O centenário da publicação de Argonautas do Pacífico Ocidental enseja não apenas a necessária referência, mas um cuidadoso resgate da contribuição para a prática etnográfica e reflexão conceitual que a saga de Bronislaw Malinowski legou para a antropologia. Claro, é necessária uma também cuidadosa releitura de seus achados nas Ilhas Trobriand tendo em vista a realidade atual, principalmente quando os temas de pesquisa têm como recorte a dinâmica das grandes cidades contemporâneas. Essa é a linha que percorre o presente artigo, com base em pesquisas e experimentos no âmbito da antropologia urbana, levados a cabo por integrantes do Laboratório do Núcleo de Antropologia Urbana da USP (LabNAU).

Krystyna Pisarkowa – The One Who Inspires The article consists of three parts. In the first one: Krystyna Pisarkowa as a Supervisor, the author shares her memories from the times when she wrote the doctoral thesis supervised by Pisarkowa. In the second part: Krystyna Pisarkowa – the Author of an Article, the author discusses how the text by Pisarkowa entitled Semantic Connotation of Nationalities provided inspiration to fourteen authors of twenty-three monographs and one lexicon. Most of those scholars are experts in Polish language and linguists, but the thoughts included in Pisarkowa’s article also influenced two experts in Russian studies: one sociologist and one anthropologist of culture. Those books were published within 40 years (1980–2020). Five of them were published after the death of Krystyna Pisarkowa. This proves the power of her article’s influence. The third part of the article is entitled Supplement. It describes the history of the book by Ogden and Richards: The Meaning of Meaning. A Study of The Influence of Language upon Thought and of The Science of Symbolism with Supplementary Essays by B. Malinowski and F. G. Crookshank, which followed a strange route from London and reached Pisarkowa who used it while writing: Linguistics by Bronisław Malinowski, vol. 1: Bonds of Shared Language (2000).

During his stay in Australia and Melanesia from 1914 to 1920, the anthropo- logist Bronisław Malinowski frequently experienced dichotomous and contradictory atti- tudes to people, places, and events: the contrast between the ‘civilized’ Australia and the ‘savage’ Melanesia; the background of the Austria-ruled Poland in which he grew up and the British-dominated Australia, Austria’s enemy in the First World War; the emotional tension of simultaneous attraction to two women – Nina Stirling of Adelaide and Elsie Rosaline Masson of Melbourne; the dilemma of the ‘heroic’ versus the ‘unheroic’ related to the war. Most of the dualities of Malinowski’s Australian-Melanesian experience, re- flected in letters to his mother Józefa Malinowska, Elsie R. Masson, and in Diary in the Strict Sense of the Term (1989), were resolved at the end of the period, which became a turning point in his life.

This article represents my 2020 Bronislaw Malinowski Award Address that I delivered virtually at the 2021 Society for Applied Anthropology Annual Meetings, March 23–27, 2021. The address focuses on the value of organizations as both a field of study and a place of employment for anthropologists. On the one hand, organizations have been largely excluded from anthropological field research in favor of research in communities. On the other, academic anthropology departments (applied anthropology programs excepted) have been largely reluctant to engage with anthropological practice and scholarship in the classroom or view organizations as a vital source of careers for their graduating students. I use my own career trajectory as a model to raise awareness of what anthropology might learn from organizations as well as what anthropologists might offer them. I will close with an initiative for a cross-section of the discipline to work together on the Career Readiness Commission to address the lack of student preparation and professionalization for careers in and for organizations.
