	Tribalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tribalism has also been sometimes been called "primitive communism" but this is rather misleading since allegiance to a communist state is not based on kin-selective altruism.
		This phenomenon is related to the concept of tribal society in that it is a precondition for members of a tribe to possess a strong feeling of identity for a true tribal society to form.
		Tribalism as a sense of identity (its second definition), on the other hand, can clearly play a strong role in motivation for aggressive wars, and this is another reason to draw a distinction between the two definitions of the word.

	Neo-Tribalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Neo-Tribalism is the ideology that human beings have evolved to live in a tribal, as opposed to a modern, society, and thus cannot achieve genuine happiness until some semblance of archaic lifestyles has been re-created or re-embraced.
		Neo-tribalist ideology is rooted in the social philosophies of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and William Kingdon Clifford, who spoke of a "tribal self" thwarted by modern society.
		Those that see Neo-Tribalism as a political or quasi-political movement distinguish themselves from the reactionary Tribalism present in many parts of the world by emphasizing the necessity of establishing a global, or at least national, network of connected co-operating tribes, as opposed to the isolated, quarelling groups of traditional tribal society.

	Tribalism, Colonialism and Capitalism – World Socialist Movement
		Within the context of neo-colonial statehood, tribalism is a colonial derivative based on matriarchal or patriarchal relations forged in the distant past and used by an ethnic group as a defensive and an offensive weapon against other groups.
		In their minds, the identification with the tribal big boss and the fact that they came from the same ethnic background was enough, even if it did not ensure the enjoyment of a spoon of marmalade from the master's table.
		It is these tribal associations that provide arenas for the various factions of the bourgeoisie to launch offensives and counter-offensives against each other in their struggle for political and economic power.

	Tribalism and modernity in Kirgizia
		Firstly, "tribalism" is an organizational form based upon strong ties to a relatively corporate family and then to a clearly defined clan.
		In a tribal organized society the members of the extended family and the clan pay an especially important role for the individuals.
		Those who are positive to an organization based on "tribalism", argue that: "Tribalism is a Kirgizian form of organization and thus suitable in a Kirgizian state." They also say that it is good to respect and have obligations to the family, your relatives and the land of the Kirgizians.

	Can Humanism Stem the Rising Tide of Tribalism
		The key feature of tribalism is this instinctive tendency to recognize, judge and reward people according to their group identity, rather than their characteristics as individuals.
		I want to emphasize that what is fueling this retreat to tribalism is not so much the direction as the pace of the change; and the feeling of dislocation and danger to established structures of authority and privilege and ways of doing things that this engenders in people the world over.
		The tribalism that we have actually been fostering is a threat, not only to the continued welfare of our species, but to that of the entire ecosystem.

		The new tribalism is an attempt to take the best aspects of traditional tribal culture and the best aspects of modern western culture, and combining them into a support group for individuality.

	Gamall Steinn [EW] Tribalism
		Many people use the words tribal and tribalism in heathendom these days, but not many have actually set down to define these terms.
		Anyway, to answer your question, I think tribal would apply to an organization or group that fulfills these various dimensions of tribalism and identifies itself as a tribe.
		If they also have land that they identify with, if being a part of the tribe automatically includes the practice of a specific religion or branch of a religion as the case may be, and if they have a common history of ceremonies, traditions, and so on, then they are a tribe.

	Native American Social Wisdom about Tribalism by Theodore Walker, Jr. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Tribal purpose emcompasses local, broadly inclusive (including national and international affairs), and all-inclusive circles of concern, including concern for the welfare of future generations, especially the seventh generation to come.
		Tribalism is important for interpreting various circles of social ethical concern, circles ranging from the most general population of all peoples to very specific peoples, tribes, and nations.
		More righteous tribalism means moving from a continuation of modernity (500+ years of anti-tribalism) to a new way of life--a post modern existence free of modern anti-tribalism and commited to embracing righteous tribal values.

	Transcending Tribalism
		Tribalism occurs when group members so closely align and identify with their own unit that they see other groups or parts of the organization as competitors, obstacles, or threats.
		The irony of tribal behavior is that it is rooted in one of our most positive human qualities–an ability to identify closely with others and to form strong bonds of trust and loyalty within our families, peer groups, and work teams.
		It is critical that all team members, not just senior management, be lifted up to the “10,000 foot” level occasionally to ensure that the whole business, and each team’s place and role in it, is thoroughly understood.

	ICT [2005/07/18] Urbanization's effects on tribalism
		The 1887 Dawes (or General Allotment) Act, used as a tool to break up tribal land holdings, was ultimately responsible for the removal of two-thirds of all Indian land holdings for white settlement - some 91 million acres.
		It is ironic that the 20th century drive toward urbanization that aimed at eradicating tribalism and sovereignty and forcing assimilation, actually served to help Indians strengthen tribal sovereignty and redefine modern tribalism.
		Tribalism has generally been described as ''morals, beliefs, and identity with a tribe or socio-political organization, families, clans or related groups that share a common ancestry.''

	Jihad vs. McWorld
		There were more than thirty wars in progress last year, most of them ethnic, racial, tribal, or religious in character, and the list of unsafe regions doesn't seem to be getting any shorter.
		International relations have sometimes taken on the aspect of gang war—cultural turf battles featuring tribal factions that were supposed to be sublimated as integral parts of large national, economic, postcolonial, and constitutional entities.
		For Jihad, the antipolitics of tribalization has been explicitly antidemocratic: one-party dictatorship, government by military junta, theocratic fundamentalism—often associated with a version of the Fuhrerprinzip that empowers an individual to rule on behalf of a people.

	Free Immigration Part 2 by Nathan A. Barton - Price of Liberty
		Opposition to the slave trade and indenturing was had a “high” moral tone, hiding the “greed” and “tribal” reasons: indentured servants and slaves were cheap competition to “native” Americans, and they usually had dark skins and talked funny.
		Limits and bans on Asian immigration, for example, were both tribal and selfish, not just “racial.” A poor “yellow” Chinese, Japanese, or Tagalong immigrant was willing to work for much less than a bankrupt Georgia planter or Ohio farmer, whether in the gold fields or on the railroad.
		Perhaps, at heart, the economic fear was also a tribal “them versus us” fear: fear that we can’t compete with the newcomers, and therefore we must limit their opportunity.

		There is a frequent thread of thought where people feel a need for a greater connection with people than what they are currently experiencing.
