The evolution of stratification in Fijian ritual participation
Original language description
Social scientists have long sought to explain the complex relationships between religion and social inequality. Building from a recent theoretical model, I predict that social hierarchies influence the cultural evolution of ritual systems and explain substantial intracultural variation in ritual behavior. The present work investigates these predictions using historical data and an analysis of observational and ethnographic interview data collected in a contemporary Fijian village. Historical data indicate that status differences between Fijians and missionaries and those between chiefs and commoners influenced the nature of Fijian religion and the socioecological environment in which contemporary ritual behavior takes place. Contemporary Fijian rituallife includes participation in Christian church services, and also kava-drinking ceremonies that evolved from the indigenous religion.
