En sus investigaciones etnogrįficas de las décadas de 1920 y 1930, puso en entredicho la visión sexista biologista que prevalecķa en las ciencias sociales en EE.UU. segśn la cual la división sexual del trabajo en la familia moderna se debķa a la diferencia innata entre el comportamiento instrumental (pśblico, productivo) de los hombres y expresivo de las mujeres, y en su estudio comparativo Sex and Temperament in Three Primitive Societies. Mead introdujo, en 1935, la idea revolucionaria de que, por ser la especie humana enormemente maleable, los papeles y las conductas sexuales varķan segśn los contextos socioculturales. Fue, asķ, precursora en la utilización del concepto de «género».

Desde 1928, las obras de Margaret Mead resultan elementos indispensables en cualquier bibliografķa antropológica. Mįs aśn: actualmente, los escritos de Margaret Mead merecen el calificativo de «clįsicos», puesto que su dedicación al estudio de las relaciones humanas en las tribus primitivas la han convertido en un punto de referencia inevitable. Adolescencia, sexo y cultura en Samoa es la relación antropológica de una prolongada estancia entre las tribus samoanas primitivas, apenas en, contacto con la llamada «civilización» occidental. El objetivo del autor fue el estudio del comportamiento de las jóvenes en la vida de la tribu. De especial interés y actualidad resultan los comentarios de M. Mead acerca del comportamiento sexual y del concepto de «familia» que rige en la vida todavķa «aislada» de las tribus samoanas.

Brossura. Condition: ottimo. Collana La Cultura, del Saggiatore. In 8° (cm 16,0 x 21,0), pagg 352. Brossura editoriale in cartoncino, pagine ben salde e con ampio margine. Condizioni ottime. Descrive in chiave sociologico-antropologica, i gentili Arapesh, soffermandosi sulle loro consuetudini, l educazione dei giovani, l iniziazione e i modi di vita. Prosegue con i cannibali Mundugumor, che pure sono loro confinanti: uomini e donne Mundugumor sono egualmente aggressivi e violenti, come gli uomini e le donne Arapesh sono dolci e remissivi. Come terzo esempio cita i Ciambuli in cui uomini e donne hanno invece ruoli distinti e complementari; con le donne nel ruolo dominante. Eppure, la Mead contesta l ovvia conclusione secondo cui la differenziazione del carattere fra i due sessi non sarebbe che un prodotto socioculturale. L analisi della Mead merita di essere meditata.
