This research paper: In A Singhalese Village in Sri Lanka: Coping with Uncertainty, Victoria J. Baker is making a case for how the people of Suduwatura Ara, an agrarian society of homesteaders cope with the uncertainty surrounding their lives. In pursuit of this subject, Baker looks at both the macro and micro environment, not only of the people, but also the researcher. She includes a discussion of her fieldwork in 1984-1985 and her return in 1994-1995, how she had to learn the customs and build a house to live in because of the poverty. Poverty is the main thrust of her argument in the case study concerning this particular group of Sinhalese, though her main thrust is how they cope with the persistent uncertainty of losing their homes and livelihoods. 1 work cited. jvSinhal.rtf
