The article takes to task the well‐established anthropological claim that non‐Western peoples are free from the traps of dualistic thinking. Although Vezo informants in Madagascar produce statements that could be used to support such a claim, experimental procedures that target their inferential reasoning reveal that they systematically differentiate between mind and body, between the biological processes that determine the organism and the social processes that shape personhood. This suggests that there is a significant discrepancy between people's explicit linguistic statements and their implicit theoretical knowledge. Moreover, developmental data show that such implicit theoretical presuppositions are essential to the production and transmission of cultural knowledge. Thus, Vezo children, who do not as yet differentiate between the biological mechanism of birth and the social mechanism of nurture, are still unable to grasp a salient aspect of Vezo culture, namely the causally integrated set of ideas that guide the way adults classify the social world. These findings have significant theoretical and methodological implications for the constitution of anthropological knowledge.

We discuss the practice of property ascription in anthropology. While recognizing that it is an inevitable and often useful way to convey the knowledge that anthropologists have acquired through ethnographic fieldwork, we identify three of the most common ways in which ascription can be misleading. First, when a property is ascribed to a collective entity, but it is unevenly distributed among social sub‐groupings; second, when an ascribed mental property is alleged to cause an individual's behaviour, but the property proves to be empirically unsupported; third, when a belief is ascribed to an individual, while another belief that effectively contradicts the first one is also entertained by that same individual. We review anthropological and psychological solutions to these problems.RésuméLes auteurs discutent de la pratique d'attribution de propriétés en anthropologie. Tout en reconnaissant qu'il s'agit d'un moyen inévitable, et souvent utile, de transmettre les connaissances que les anthropologues ont acquises sur le terrain, ils identifient trois des manières les plus courantes dont cette attribution peut induire en erreur : premièrement, lorsqu'une propriété attribuée à l'identité collective est répartie inégalement parmi les sous‐groupes sociaux ; deuxièmement, lorsqu'on affirme qu'une propriété mentale attribuée est la cause du comportement d'un individu, mais que cette propriété s'avère dépourvue de fondement empirique ; troisièmement, lorsqu'une croyance est attribuée à un individu alors que ce même individu entretient une autre croyance, qui contredit de facto la première. Les auteurs examinent les solutions anthropologiques et psychologiques à ces problèmes.

The genealogical model has a long-standing history in Western thought. The contributors to this volume consider the ways in which assumptions about the genealogical model—in particular, ideas concerning sequence, essence, and transmission—structure other modes of practice and knowledge-making in domains well beyond what is normally labeled "kinship." The detailed ethnographic work and analysis included in this text explores how these assumptions have been built into our understandings of race, personhood, ethnicity, property relations, and the relationship between human beings and non-human species. The authors explore the influences of the genealogical model of kinship in wider social theory and examine anthropology's ability to provide a unique framework capable of bridging the "social" and "natural" sciences. In doing so, this volume brings fresh new perspectives to bear on contemporary theories concerning biotechnology and its effect upon social life
