Supranational Networks
The nation-state systems that seem to dominate the global landscape are not necessarily the pinnacle of evolution. A conglomeration of interacting factors spelled doom for the traditional colonialism of previous centuries while providing an ideal environment for multinational firms operating above the level of nation-states to play an important role in the generation of a new politico-socio-economic system better described by network models than …
Network Thinking in Peace and Conflict Studies
Developments in mathematics and social theory and in techniques of communication and computation have brought network analysis to a state where it can be practically applied over a broad spectrum.

The idea of training anthropologists for practice in modern complex societies through internships in non-academic institutions was independently invented in several contexts. Unfortunately, the history of those inventions has not been well documented
The Place of Anthropology in the Future of Africa
Most of us in African studies today belong to that generation of scholars who started their work at a time when virtually all the genuine knowledge we had of Africa was gathered by anthropologists. What we knew about Africa was anthropological knowledge. Anthropologists dominated the field, for better or for worse, when most of Africa was under colonial control, when Africa was politically an extension of Europe and economically within the metrop…
