IN "CAHIERS D'ANTHROPOLOGIE SOCIALE"
Social transmission of behavior between species is a multifaceted phenomenon that requires a theoretical and methodological refinement beyond concepts such as enculturation. There are contexts in which species-typical patterns necessitate social support to develop; for instance, new chimpanzee mothers in captivi...
How do humans and chimpanzees set and blur boundaries between species when interacting with each other? This is the leitmotif of this etho-ethnography at the intersection of social anthropology, social studies of science and primatology. This endeavor is based on long-term fieldwork conducted in a cognitive sciences laboratory in Japan, which teach...
The modern categorization also referred to as modern constitution has set Nature and Culture apart as two distinct ontological provinces, separating the pole of human beings and culture from the pole of non-humans and nature. Recent sociocultural anthropology and social studies of science have revisited the historical abyss between Nature and Cultu...
We describe two cases of intensive care in chimpanzees at the KUPRI; Reo with acute tetraparesis and Puchi with subarachnoid hemorrhage. These cases had poor prognosis that could lead to euthanasia. Not quite so in Japan. Reo was 24-year-old when he suffered of acute tetraparesis from inflammation around the C1 and C2 level. He developed decubitus...

Em cativeiro, pesquisadores não entram em recintos sem barreiras com chimpanzés adultos, mediando suas interações através de painéis e grades, sendo prática contrária historicamente abolida no...

Wh...
Rousseau’s three centenary is a good opportunity to introduce his fundamental ideas and to apply them to new domains, such as primatology. The concept of the state of nature, developed in the first part of the second Discourse, and the dichotomy between nature and culture that it implies are treated in the different contributions presented in this...
