Briefly define the “Three Images of the Forest People.” Explain why one of them is a dangerous distortion? Which view is the least distorted?
What will be an ideal response?
• --Primal Eden: a simple, unspoiled, and innocent utopia whose "music-culture evokes cherished values—peace, naturalness, humor, community," an "idyllic paradise"
• --Primitive Savage: primitive savagery, an "earlier stage" in evolution; a way of life associated with the Stone Age. Such a pejorative view is ethnocentric and dangerous, because it can become a rationalization for the exploitation and "modernization" of the "primitive" group by another group who feels superior.
• --Unique Culture in a Global Village: This view is the least distorted and recognizes the Forest People as nonliterate, nonindustrial, with an unspecialized division of labor and a cashless barter/subsistence economy, in a homogeneous society with small-scale, decentralized social institutions and egalitarian social relations.
