La formation récente de groupes en corps (« corporate groups ») à l’intérieur d’une société cognatique, les Biangais de la province de Morobe en Papouasie Nouvelle-Guinée, est analysée à l’aide de la théorie de l’articulation des modes de production. Cette situation, créée sous l’influence de l’administration habituée à traiter avec des groupes unilinéaires lors de paiements pour l’acquisition de terres, va dans le sens d’un renforcement du contrôle exercé par les personnes en position d’influence chez les Biangais.

The term the Fourth World comprizes those native peoples whose lands and cultures have been engulfed by the nations of the First, Second and Third Worlds. Parallelling the usage of the term Third World, this term has come into use in the past ten years by scholars interested in the political status of indigenous people in “internal colonies”, and by the leaders of the minority peoples themselves, such as the Dene and the Lapps. This paper discusses (a) the sources of the term, (b) its range of meaning and relation to the term Third World, (c) the consciousness and political reality of the Fourth World, and (d) the problems and usage of the term in anthropology.

After 330 years of European exploration and settlement on the island of Newfoundland, the Beothuck Indian population became extinct. In order to establish how far the demise of these Indians was due to diseases introduced by the Europeans, bubonic plague, smallpox, measles and tuberculosis, these are considered in relation to the changing circumstances of the Beothucks and their patterns of contact with each other and with the European settlers. The effect of these diseases on Beothuck demography is discussed using documentary evidence of disease incidence in the Newfoundland population as well as comparative data from other North American Indian groups.
