“…We provide tribal-specific conceptualizations of illness, shamanism, and traditional healing (Hawk Wing, 1997;Trimble et al, 1984;Voss, Douville, Little Soldier, & Twiss, 1999), pointing out that complicated procedures involving the community, and often incorporating dancing, have evolved to deal with individual problems (Jilek, 1989). Most Native-oriented approaches and diagnostic categories center on the spiritual domain; for example, Powers (1982) described the Yuwipi man among the Lakota as "particularly suited and trained by the spirits to diagnose and treat 'Indian sickness,' illnesses that generally were common to the people before the white man arrived" (Mohatt & Eagle Elk, 2000, p. 35). We often work with our classes as a simulated community and work as a team as we examine "cases" and learn how to work effectively in native community settings.…”

Substantial psychological and sociocultural information is now available about American Indians and Alaska Natives. The goal of this chapter is to provide guidelines and resources for infusing some of this information into psychology courses. In it, I first present general cultural and demographic information about these groups, and then, in more detail, discuss topics that are particularly relevant to the psychological study of Indian and Native lifeways and thoughtways. DEFINITIONS AND DEMOGRAPHICSIn the United States, the terms Native American or Native American Indian often are used interchangeably with American Indian and Alaska Native, 1 express my sincere and heartfelt gratitude to the following friends and colleagues who provided me with guidance, support, and assistance in the preparation of this chapter: Arthur Blue,

Victor Turner broke anthropology free from cultural determinism when it was anchored in the reductionist theories of Durkheim. Like Tolstoy in his recognition of the origin of violence in government, Turner recognized the origin of the denaturing of cultures in culture’s own penchant for the building of social structures in order to perpetuate itself. He saw in the cracks between structures, and in the liminal gaps necessary for changes in structure, the revival of the lost immediacy of social relationships and the communitas that is its mark. Nowadays one may include signs of spirituality in those gaps, although that spirituality has been a topic previously tabooed in anthropological circles or hidden under structural analysis. Turner saw the inconvenient truth that if structuralism as a value and philosophy (plus what we now see as the violence inseparable from the political state, along with neoconservatism and neoliberalism—business doctrines multiplied by themselves ad infinitem) were to continue as the world’s philosophy, we would continue with wars and the smothering of the natural flexibility of social intercourse (see Robert Putnam 2000, who shows in stark figures how sociality in general is losing ground in our era).
