For two decades now, the Royal Anthropological Institute (henceforth RAI) has emphasized the importance of getting anthropological understandings across to a wider audience. Here we look at the oft stated objectives of popularization, some of the actual measures implemented, and the effects of these measures. This is no more than a rather preliminary consideration of a highly complex issue, full treatment of which would involve an institutional history of the RAI and a more complete account of the wider social context
