Reflections on Christianity in China
Although Christian missions were present in China by A.D. 671 and mission-introduced medical and educational institutions have flourished, Christianity has never gained an important place in Chinese religious life. This essay reflects upon the long-term failure of Christianity to adapt to local beliefs and contexts (in contrast to Buddhism), and suggests that the future of Christianity in China is no more secure than its past
Socioeconomic Relations in Pre-Communist China
In an earlier issue of Modern China, Ramon H. Myers (1980: 243) challenged what he believed was the view held by most concerned scholars that in prerevolutionary China the relationships between landlords and tenant-farmers were invariably and-exploitative. Limiting himself to north China, he makes excellent use of the substantial material gathered and produced by Japanese social scientists before World War II. Dr. Myers has long been known as an …
The Mind of Lewis H. Morgan [and Comments and Reply]
A careful restudy of Morgan's writings (including unpublished manuscripts) has led to several rather obvious conclusions that would be not be starling were it not for the fact that scholarly writings since Engels about Morgan's personality and thought have presented such polarized contentions. (1) Morgan was not a "functionalist"-determinist, thus neither materialist nor idealist. (2) He was neither pro- nor anti-Darwinist and never addressed him…

The Classification of Corporate Unilineal Descent Groups
This article proposes a four-fold classification of corporate unilineal descent groups: (1) lineage; (2) ramage; (3) conical clan; (4) segmentary lineage system. It distinguishes these types based on their structural principles, succession patterns, and the presence or absence of demonstrated genealogical connections. The lineage emphasizes demonstrated descent from a common ancestor, while the ramage operates on stipulated descent and hierarchic…

Community Studies in China
The present article will analyze some of the major currents in the study of Chinese culture in terms of functioning communities. We will turn, first, to works of the nineteenth and early twentieth century, showing why these accounts, no matter how well done, were not community studies. We shall then turn successively to the pioneer scientific work on Chinese communities, the social surveys, and to the several published community studies which are…

War
Warfare, Military Organization, and the Evolution of Society
In this highly preliminary consideration of the relation bet ween warfare and the evolution of human society, I will try to develop a few general theses in the context of a developmental scheme already presented in another publication (Fried 1960). The major theses can be presented succinctly: First: The evolution of complex politically organized society has entailed two major and generally distinct steps prior to the invention or emergence of th…

Military Status in Chinese Society
Western social scientists believe, with the Chinese literati, that the status of the military in China is invariably low. This is not true of contemporary China: There is abundant evidence that Chinese military status has not always been low but that there have been extended periods when it was as high or even higher than the civil status. The evidence also suggests that different socioeconomic classes in Chinese society have divergent views of t…
