• This paper was first given in a quite different form at the seminar “New Theories in social Anthropology” held in June 1989 at the University of Oslo. I want to thank Signe Howell for inviting me to this seminar and more generally all the participants whose interesting discussions helped greatly improve this paper. Special thanks are due to Stephen Suffern who revised my deficient English form of expression.
