Consciousness, Authoritarianism, and Political Violence
The paper "Consciousness, Authoritarianism, and Political Violence" by Stephan A.

The immediate causes were a series of symposia in 1974, including several on the challenge to anthropology represented by Carlos Castaneda, who attacked the way a critical part of anthropology was conducted. The argument in his…
