KINSHIP IN WEST
PUNJAB BY HAMZA ALAVI PRESENTED BY: SAMAN IJAZ
2.
INTRODUCTION • The focus
of the study is the relationship between economic stratification and primordial loyalties. • Fieldwork was done in villages of Sahiwal district, Punjab, Pakistan. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 2
3.
BASE OF SOCIAL
ORGANIZATION • Literature on South Asian rural societies is the assumption that these societies are structurally similar. • Focus on caste and jajmani system. • In Muslim rural society of West Punjab Kinship system is base of social organization. • Basic institutions of Kinship System • Biradari ()برادري: is a Persian word origin, derived from biradar, “brother”. The Punjabi word for brother is “Bhira” ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 3
4.
CONNOTATIONS ATTACHED WITH
WORD BIRADARI I. Infinite in Size II. Biradari of recognition. III. Biradari of Participation. IV. Entire Biradari and Bradari of the village. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 4
5.
CONNOTATIONS ATTACHED WITH
WORD BIRADARI Infinite in Size • As a descent group, biradari includes in principle all those between whom actual links of common descent can be traced in the paternal line, regardless of the number of generation that have elapsed. • In this sense, therefore, biradari is indefinite in size, • Following this sometimes it is observed that for total strangers have been able to establish mutual links of common descent and have embraced each other as member of single biradari. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 5
6.
CONNOTATIONS ATTACHED WITH
WORD BIRADARI Biradari of recognition • The genealogical depth of biradaris tends to be shallow; about four or five generation. • Structurally the definition of biradari as the “Biradari of recognition” Biradari of Participation • Denotes those households of a biradari of recognition who actually participate in a ritual of exchange of prestations called Vartan bhanji on certain ceremonial occasions. • The smaller solidarity group, whose member households thus affirm their fraternal ties by vartan bhanji, may be designated as the “biradari of participation”. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 6
7.
CONNOTATIONS ATTACHED WITH
WORD BIRADARI Entire Biradari and Bradari of the village. • Entire Biradari: the biradari of participation which includes groups of households in several villages. • Bradari of the village: a biradari of participation whose member households are dispersed over a wide area and those members of it who are resident together in a single village. • At that level on interaction of related households is the highest and ties of group solidarity are the stronger. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 7
8.
DESCENT • Patrilineal • Inheritance
and membership of group are transmitted by male line. • The Shariat Act 1948 altered tis but still it is dominating and Panchayats (councils) support it. • Conflict arises when inheritance is claimed in accordance with the Islamic law. • Membership of biradari would speak of being of the same blood even if some of them happen to have mothers who have come from other biradaris. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 8
9.
MARRIAGE • Structured on
the principle of preferential patrilineal parallel cousin marriage. • Most preferred marriage is with FBD (father’s brother daughter), FFBD and FFBSD respectively. • The consequence of preferential patrilineal parallel cousin marriage and biradari endogamy is the creation of the extremely close and compact patrilineages which appropriate their own women rather than exchange them with other kin groups. • A person who gives a daughter in marriage outside his biradari , in effect accepts inferior status. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 9
10.
MEMBERSHIP OF “BIRADARI
OF PARTICIPATION” • Membership of biradari of participation is expressed and acknowledged by Vartan Bhanji. • Vartan : Dealings, Bhanji: Sweets. • The prestation given in Vartan bhanji are called Neondra or nyota. • Essential feature of vartan bhanji is the obligation to reciprocate. • Vartan bhanji not only defines membership of biradari of participation but, as will be explained below , it also provides an unambiguous ritual procedure for termination of the relationship in the event of fission of the biradari as a consequence of conflict. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 10
11.
VARTAN BHANJI • The
neondra is given by all households of the biradari of partiipation. • Mirasi announces the gathering that the time had come for those who are to give neondra to do so. • Any literate person of the family note the names of the donors and the amount of the neondra. The record is preserved. • Vartan bhanji imposes an obligation on the recipient to reciprocate in like measures. • Return of the excess amount does not offence to the donor. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 11
12.
VARTAN BHANJI • In
behi in which receipts of neondra are recorded, there are three colums. • A practical consequence of vartan bhanji is that it brings substantial financial aid to the recipient household, at a time when it is involved in considerable expenditure for ceremonial purpose. Past reckoning Amount of present Neondra Amount of neandra – past Reckoning= 100 150 150-100=50+ ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 12
13.
VARTAN BHANJI Paki and
Katchi (ورتن اورکچي )پکي vartan • Paki Vartan(cooked, ripe, firm or permanent): the household with whom these respective forms of vartan bhanji are transacted and their modes operation of the institution. • In cases where inter –biradari marriages have taken place , the household with whom pakki vartan takes place also include the nanke ()نانکےand saure (سرے). • It is rare for pakki vartan to take plac outside of the kin, if it is done then that will be extremely close friend. • It is obligatory. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 13
14.
VARTAN BHANJI • Katchi
vartan (raw, unripe, weak or temporary) • It indicates a courtesy relationship rather than permanent bonds. • Takes place with friends and neighbours. In the village. • Not obligatory. • No formal invitations is sent in the case of weddings and circumcision ceremonies. • Amounts given as neondra in katchi vartan are smaller than those given in paki vartan. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 14
15.
INVITATION AND SIGNALING
CONFLICTS • Rituals of vartan bhanji cause resolution of conflicts. Invitation are sent through nai who invite any male member of the family. • Nai take colored thread(red/white) called ganth and give one strand of thread to head of family which is called Mohli. • The head of the family tie that mohli to the wrist of youngest member symbolizing goodwill and affection. After accepting Mohli, head of the family gives customary cash to Nai. The amount given is higher for close relatives and lower for far ones. Nai is offered good food and also offer him night stay which shows both families have strong relationship. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 15
16.
• If both
families have some conflict in past, then treatment is different. The head of family accepts mohli but give less money or sometimes gives nothing to Nai. • If there is serious conflict then head of family refuses to accept the invitation rather throws on the floor( case study) • There might be a case when two families want to resolve the conflict then one family send their son/brother or sometimes group of respectable called meyla/parain to resolve the conflicts. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 16
17.
FISSION/FUSION OF BIRADERI: •
If two groups are in conflict, vartan bhanji is main ritual for conflict resolution • Case Study: If two main braderis are unable to dissolve conflict and break then half minor birderis support one Biraderi while half support the other. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 17
18.
ECONOMIC STRATIFICATION AND
BIRADERI ORGANIZATION: • There are four main strata's in society. 1. Landlords (own land and financially independent) 2. Poor Peasants ( wage laborers/ economically dependent) 3. Small Landlords ( independent and cultivate their own land) 4. Kammi/Village servants/ working class(economically dependent and work for others like Nai, Potter, Blacksmith) ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 18
19.
PANCHAYAT • There is
over lapping between strata’s so its not possible to draw line between these strata’s because its continuum of strata’s. • Within one biraderi, some are small landlords while others are kami or poor peasants so its difficult to put them in one category. • Among landlords, there is no specific Biraderi panchayat for decision making because all decisions are taken by landlords and Kami have to follow their orders. • On the other hand small landholders biraderi panchayat has more group solidarity and they regulate life flexibly ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 19
20.
• Panchayat members
are not elected rather selected, those who are wise, knowledgeable and active in biraderi affairs are preferred members. • Panchayat can be at two levels 1. Panchayat of younger men( deals admin and politics) 2. Panchayat of older men ( deals marriage or internal disputes) Security of life and property are main problems of Punjab. In these criminal activities are supported by landlords (rassigirs). • Criminals terrorize people by stealing cattle or abducting women. In such situation small biradari's unite and strengthen their group cohesion. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 20
21.
• Big landlords
negotiate with small groups for their political support. • At local level landlord biraderi might have rivalries but at national level they all support each other. • Criminals terrorize people by stealing cattle or abducting women. In such situation small biradari's unite and strengthen their group cohesion. • Big landlords negotiate with small groups for their political support. • At local level landlord biraderi might have rivalries but at national level they all support each other. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 21
22.
BIRADARI ENDOGAMY • Its
famous among landowners that “take woman but don’t give them” so they prefer endogamy as marrying outside is like loss of status for them • Biradari of share croppers/workers don't practice endogamy rather prefer exogamous marriages because no fear of loosing status and they prefer their economic growth. • Biradari as social unit emerge at ceremonial occasions like weddings. Biradari organization is weak among big landlords because their household are disperse in various villages. • Landlords in Biradari don’t prefer group solidarity rather they want economic power and authority to control. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 22
23.
EXOGAMY AND ZAT •
Structural principle of endogamy is appropriation of women by patrilineage as opposed to exogamy • Women exchange in marriage between paternal ancestral group is known as gots. • Endogamous systems gives zat names which leads to the identification of biradaris. In exogamous system, zat refers to defined group equat to sub caste • Endogamous systems has compact, small and localized biraderi groups which have their specific zat names and in exogamy zat defines limits to which women exchange occur ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 23
24.
CONCLUSION • Kinship is
the primary factor which govern social organization in the west Punjabi village. ©Saman Ijaz (Anthropologist QAU) 2/11/2021 24
