Bertrand Bouchet, Family, rites and memory : the role of the elders in a Soviet Turkmen community.
The Merv oasis kolkhozians are representative of the social organization of the Soviet Turkmens, one of the most striking features of which is the authority of aged men. In the past it took its roots in patrilineal kinship, in the principle of seniority, in their statute as heads of single or joint households, and their group was also in collective authority over the community. In the Soviet time this authority survives in family life and in the domestic economy of the individual plots. As a collective authority, it lost its political side, but remains significant in moral and religious fields. Past and present changes point out what part aged men play as bearers of memory and continuity of the identity. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
