Why do we need to coordinate when classifying kin?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 33 (5):385-386 (2010)
Abstract
We suggest that there are two coordination games when it comes to understanding kin terminology. Jones' article focuses on the linguistic coordination inherent in developing meaningful kin terminologies, alluding briefly to the benefits of these kin terminologies for coordination in other domains. We enhance Jones' discussion by tracing the links between the structure of kin terminologies and their functionsOther Versions
