The Anthropological Field on the Margins of Europe, 1945-1991
The social lives of the peoples of the Balkans have long stimulated the imagination of their northern European neighbours, including anthropologists. Yet these peoples and places have anthropological traditions of their own, shaped initially by nationalist movements and later (more superficially) by socialism and other political constraints. This volume explores the anthropological field between Greece and Slovenia when political pressures were s…
Market and Society
Karl Polanyi's 1944 book, The Great Transformation, offered a radical critique of how the market system has affected society and humanity since the industrial revolution. This volume brings together contributions from distinguished scholars in economic anthropology, sociology and political economy to consider Polanyi's theories in the light of circumstances today, when the relationship between market and society has again become a focus of intens…

Creeds, Cultures And The 'Witchery Of Music
Frazer's brief excursus on the 'witchery of music' is the starting-point for a discussion of the role of music in the eastern Orthodox (Byzantine) and western Roman Catholic (Latin) Christian traditions, with reference to a region of central Europe where these traditions have co-existed for more than a thousand years. The Greek Catholic Church provides a case of syncretism within one and the same religion. This 'hybrid' Church has complicated the…

The Power of Symbols Against the Symbols of Power
Socialism
From Production to Property
The concept of property has long occupied a central place in Western political and economic theory, but it has had a chequered history in social anthropology, and has not figured strongly in recent work in the discipline. This article draws on fieldwork carried out in rural Hungary since 1976 and concentrates on a specific type of property right, the ownership of agricultural land. Recent moves to decollectivize farmland pose dilemmas for many vi…
Socialism and King Stephen's right hand
Second Thoughts on Smallholders
Many specialists in comparative farming systems and agrarian social structures have recognized in recent decades the resilience and vitality of non-capitalistic family farming (Harriss, 1982; Shanin, 1987). For Turkey, both the general characteristics and many regional variations were well established by Aresvik (1975). Recent work by Çağlar Keyder (1983) has traced the genesis of modern Turkish rural society back to the Ottoman period and outlin…
