Hardback. Condition: New. The essays assembled in this book exemplify the way political anthropologists address a range of problems that deeply affect people throughout the world. The authors draw their inspiration from the work of Canadian anthropologist Richard B. Lee, and, like him, they are concerned with understanding and acting upon issues of "indigenous rights"; the impact of colonialism, postcolonial state formation, and neoliberalism on local communities and cultures; the process of culture change; what the history and politics of egalitarian societies reveal about issues of "human nature" or "social evolution"; and how peoples in southern Africa are affected by and responding to the most recent crisis in their midst, the spread of AIDS. The authors in this volume discuss the state of a range of contemporary debates in the field that in various ways extend the political, theoretical, and empirical issues that have animated Lee's work. In addition, the book provides readers with important contemporary Kalahari studies, as well as "classic" works on foraging societies.…

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 109-146 pages with map and cited references. Quarto (11" x 8 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Current Anthropology Volume 31, Number 2 complete issue. First edition. Recent studies of societies hitherto portrayed as autonomous and self-regulating have sought to re-situate them in the context of wider regional and international economics, politics and histories. In this revisionism there is danger of imputing links where none existed and assuming that evidence for trade implies, the surrender of autonomy. Examination of the different historical experiences of two San groups, one largely dependent on its Bantu-speaking neighbors and the other (until recently) substantially autonomous, suggests that the contact may take many forms, not all of which lead to dependency, abandonment of foraging, or incorporation into "more powerful" social formations.
