Applied Anthropology or the Anthropology of Modernity? Max Gluckman's Vision of Southern African Society, 1939-1947
This article analyses the work of Max Gluckman, the well-known South African-born British social anthropologist during his years in colonial Zambia (Northern Rhodesia). It argues that Gluckman's Northern Rhodesian writings are best understood as an extension of his powerful critique of segregation in South Africa, 'Analysis of a Social Situation in Modern Zululand'. Instead of appearing as a naïve attempt at 'applied anthropology', his work from …
Max Gluckman and the Critique of Segregation in South African Anthropology, 1921-1940
Max Gluckman's essay, 'Analysis of a Social Situation in Modern Zululand' (the 'Bridge Paper' to his students), first published in 1940, came to be recognised in the postwar period as constituting a major methodological breakthrough for British social anthropology. His chief innovation was to describe in great detail the events of a single day - a 'social situation' - from which he then proceeded to abstract the sociological patterns of the wider…
The King and I
Recent research into the life and work of Bronislaw Malinowski, one of the most important figures in British social anthropology in the 20th century, has concentrated upon his early life up to and including the years he spent in the Trobriand Islands undertaking his epoch-making fieldwork.

Science Policy
Rethinking the Organizational Weapon
There is growing realization in the U.S.S.R. that the “contemporary scientific and technological revolution” is as much a managerial and cultural revolution as a scientific and industrial revolution. The key task is to develop not only modern technical hardware, but also an effective and distinctive software appropriate for the times. Accordingly, Soviet authorities have begun to think seriously, really for the first time, about organization and …

The Purge of Marshal Zhukov
In contrast to the purge of the "anti-party group" in June, 1957, the removal of Marshal Georgii Zhukov from power has occasioned relatively little comment from Soviet authorities. However, even if the agents of Soviet totalitarianism have remained silent about the reasons for the purge of Zhukov, a consideration of the dynamics of the totalitarian system may help us to reach an explanation.This study will first explore the official charges on th…
