1. Describe how Muso society differs from the mainstream Chinese society. How Muso society is misrepresented in the media? Mosuo culture has features of a matrilineal society, in which women are the head of the household, property is passed down through female lineage, and women decide to do business; however political power tends to be in the hands of men, disqualifying them from matriarchal status. However, there are still matriarchal societies where women are literally the dominant guiding factor in all spheres, social, political and economic. The lineage is traced through the women of the family. This society is also matrilineal, meaning property is passed on to the same female line. According to Blumenfield, in the context of this global fascination with the matriarchal community, Na village men are often labeled as “lazy” and “immature” by the media. “What you’re seeing is a bit tricky.” Blumenfield said. “You can easily see him sitting in the field smoking a cigarette. And they say: Women do all the work. But people actually play an active role in running the village, cultivating crops and caring for a large family. “People say, ‘Men don’t have to work,'” Blumenfield said. “It can’t. It’s not even all day. They fish and farm so people can eat all winter. construction and care, conservation and slaughter of animals. ” 2. Discuss the positive and negative impacts of tourism on the Muso people, their way of life and the region in which they live? China’s tourism industry has flourished since the mid-1990s, distributing wealth and infrastructure from cities to remote villages and opening up new opportunities for cultural exchange. This paper aims to determine the financial and cultural impact of tourism on the inheritance and marriage of the Mosuo people in southwestern China. Household census data and individual interviews show that Mosuo people living in tourist areas are more likely to deviate from traditional matriarchal norms than Mosuo people living in areas. away from the tourist area. A pedigree is more likely to retain ambidextrous offspring in tourist areas, but more likely to be maternal in agricultural areas. Wedding patterns are also much different from the standards set in tourist destinations. I interpret differences as adaptive responses to changes in acquired wealth, and argue that cultural assimilation alone will not be able to account for such differences. I argue that the results are consistent with the general hypothesis that wealth accumulation is incompatible with matrilin, and conclude that family is still important to Mosuo, but in a different way than it used to be. The positive aspect of tourism in Mosuo society is the economic impact, while the negative is that tourism is encroaching on Mosuo society. Week 12 – Cannibal Tours.
