The part played by warshipbuilding in sustaining the Clyde shipbuilding industry between 1889 and 1939 has received less attention than it deserves. Only a minority of firms undertook warshipbuilding in peacetime but they included some of the leading shipyards an the Clyde. This study, based on a detailed examination of accounts and cost records, shows that naval work was of critical importance for these firms from the 1890's onwards. All of the firms which took advantage of the expansion in the demand for warships in the 1890's were in financial difficulties and profitable naval contracts were largely responsible for reviving their fortunes. From then until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, naval work constituted a major part of their output and the most profitable part of it. By 19149 all of the warshipbuilders had expanded their capacity and provided expensive new facilities largely an the strength of the demand for warships and the three biggest yards were owned by armaments manufacturers who were primarily interested in shipyards for their warshipbuilding capability. After the war, the demand for armaments contracted and the warshipbuilders were faced with the problem of finding profitable employment for capacity designed for building warships and warship engines. This proved to be impossible and the relative dearth of naval contracts in the 1920's and early 1930's was the primary cause of the severe financial difficulties in which they found themselves when the onset of the world financial crisis in 1931 brought merchant shipbuilding to a standstill. Only Beardmore's succumbed but, had rearmament not been in the offing, it is doubtful if many of the warshipbuilding yards would have survived the ensuing crisis. As it was the survivors regained their financial stability by 1939 only because of the revival in the demand for warships.

Note: / This dissertation examines the position of Inuit (Eskimo) kinship and· its associated behavioral concomitants as they effect the patterning of Inuit ecological relations. The study seeks to demonstrate the role such features, functioning as one component within the cultural ecological system, play in organizing and maintaining the observed pattern of man-land interactions. In so doing, it focuses on particular internal attributes, such as task group formation and decision-making networks, which contribute to the material substance of the local adaptation.Th~approach employed in the research may be termed that of systems-oriented cultural ecology. Within this approach, social-cultural features of the society are seen as forming a knowledge set which, along with data derived from the environment, contribute information necessary for the inplementation of specific strategies of resource exploitation. Social organization elements, therefore, provide a framework for the arrangement of environmental, as well as sociological, relations. Inuit subsistence activities, then, ar~ perceived not simply in terms of isolated actions;but as a process which encompasses a broad range of societal components. / La presente dissertation etudie la position de la parente des Inuit (Esquimaux) et des problemes accessoires de comportement qui affeetent 1a structuration des relations des Inuit. L'etude vise a demontrer Ie role que ces aspects, qui s'exercent eomme un element au sein du systeme eco1ogique culturel, jouent dans l'organisation et Ie maintien du schema des rapp0rts observe entre l'hom.ne et la terre. Ce faisan..:, elle se eoncentre sur les attributs internes particu1iers tels que la formation des groupes d'etudes et les reseaux de prise de decision qui contribuent aux relations d'ordre materiel de l'adaptation locale.L'approche utilisee pour 1a recherche peut etre qualifiee d'ec010gie culture11e axee sur les systemes. Selon cette approche, on considere que les aspects socio-culture1s de la societe forment un ensemble de connaissances qui, combinees aux donnees derivees de l'environnement, fournissent l' it-formation necessaire a 1.' implantatiotl de stratlgiE:.s propres a l'exploitation des ressources. Les elements de l'organisation sociale offrent done Ie cadre de la structuration des relations sur Ie plan de l'environnement ainsi que sur Ie plan sociologique. Les activites deployees par les Inuit pour assurer leur subsistance sont alors per~ues non pas simplement comme des actions isolees mais comme un processus qui enblobe une vaste gamme de composantes de 1a societe.

Além disso, consiste em uma análise estética e reflexiva dos processos de criação e encenação do espetáculo coreográfico Porque Oxalá Usa Ekodidé, dirigido por Clyde Wesley Morgan, em 1973, baseado no conto homônimo afro-brasileiro de Deoscóredes dos Santos, identificando suas matrizes estético-culturais (princípios, códigos, vocabulários e conteúdos), assim como as interfaces que apresenta transitando entre a dança e os demais elementos cênicos no espetáculo. O estudo averigua o papel central que a dança ocupa nos processos de concepção, criação e encenação dos trabalhos de Clyde Morgan. Dentre os objetivos desta pesquisa destacam-se: identificar, a partir de um breve enfoque antropológico, a origem e a presença da gestualidade abstraída no espetáculo, refletindo a sua utilização na coreografia do mesmo; ressaltar a contribuição deste coreógrafo como elemento formador e recriador de identidade cultural negra, na Bahia; identificar as principais manifestações afro descendentes que ocorreram na Bahia deste período, reconhecendo como processos propositivos de afirmação e cultura negra. A dança apresentada neste e em outros espetáculos reúne, de forma híbrida e singular, características de diversas matrizes estético-culturais (africanas, européias, brasileira, norte-americana, vocabulários da dança afro-brasileira, balé clássico e dança moderna). Além disso, foi detectado o encontro do tradicional e do moderno, determinando assim um dos mais expressivos resultados da criação proporcionada por Clyde Morgan, que também não perdeu de vista o conjunto de relações sociais e de poder vividos pelo grupo. / Salvador
