“…From a practical point of view, comparative data on social ecology may be as useful for the development of nature reserves (197) as they are in management programs. Furthermore, the study of social carnivores may shed some light on the evolution of human behavior (150,161,275).…”

This article critically examines the ways in which primatologists account for their research. Based on a series of unstructured interviews, it argues that the location of primates at the boundary between Western conceptions of nature and culture or human and animal has materially affected how primatologists talk about their research, what they find possible to write about in their research, and where they choose to publish their research. Through the discussion of a number of related topics (e.g., popular science, sociobiology, the potentially distinctive nature of nonhuman primates as objects of research), it outlines the reflexive nature of primatologists’ response to the cultural positioning of their research subjects.

“…Territoriality is not, of course, restricted to our own species. Indeed, a significant body of literature exists on the territorial behavior of primates as well as the social carnivores (Jolly, 1972;Holloway, 1974;Thompson, 1978;King, 1980). Comparing themes drawn from these materials with the aforementioned origins of state literature can lend an added dimension to the topic.…”

This article pursues two goals. It sets forth a framework for incorporating life sciences materials into introductory or advanced courses in international relations. It also presents a format for processing these materials in the classroom. In pursuit of these aims, the article addresses problems commonly encountered when initially undertaking a more balanced biopolitical approach to international relations, and sets forth proposals designed to treat these problems.
