Description:
viii+214 pages with tables, charts, bibliography and indexes. Octavo (8 3/4" x 6") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with brown lettering to spine and bind stamped pictorial to cover. in original jacket. Translated by A M Sheridan Smith. Previous owner's name on front end paper. First edition. As a scientific discipline, political anthropology is a relatively recent offshoot of social anthropology, though a concern wit its problems can be traced at least as far back as Aristotle. This book fulfills a dual function: it is a remarkable concise and comprehensive statement of the scope and methods of the discipline and, at the same time, a highly critical, individual contribution to theoretical discussion. It examines the relation of power to the elementary structures that form its primary base, to the types of social stratification that necessitate it, and to its ritual links with the sacred. Condition: Previous owner's name on front end paper else a near fine copy in a fine jacket.
