Process and Pattern in Culture
Colonialism and Native Land Tenure
The University of Illinois' program for the study of cultural regularities, conceived and directed by Professor Steward, represents a systematic attempt to test some broad hypotheses about convergence through research in a number of areas in different parts of the world. This chapter presents a case study, which is an outgrowth of this research. Although the circumstances under which the change in land tenure discussed in the chapter are unique t…
Professional Dominance
In the United States today we are confronted by a number of serious social problems, not the least of which concern the character of our basic human services. In each of the broad public domains of welfare, education, law, and health there are crises of public confidence.

Anthropology
The present "crisis" in anthropology has been occasioned by two sets of events in the wider society. First, there is the virtual disappearance of the primitive world which in the past provided the discipline with most of its data as well as the major inspiration for its key concepts and theoretical ideas.

The Land Claims Cases
In a session devoted to Anthropology and Indian Land Claims Litigation conducted in Bloomington, Indiana, in May, 1955, expert witnesses from both sides and one somewhat out-of-place attorney discussed not only the problems involved in proper adjudication of the cases now being prepared and heard but the potential usefulness to anthropology of the research findings being accumulated.* It appears from the partial transcript of the discussions whic…

The Cultural Study of Contemporary Societies

It employs a multi-faceted approach, considering economic changes, political structures, family organization, religious practices, and value systems. The study highlights the interplay between traditional cultural patterns and the impact of e…

Tribe and Tribal Boundaries
One of the more vexing problems with which students of primitive social organization have been concerned is that of the definition and characterization of the tribe. The term has been applied almost casually to a variety of social groupings ranging in size and complexity from a wandering family or polygynous household to West African kingdoms and New World empires. And while nominal precision may sometimes be unimportant if one goes on to specify…
