Early in the twentieth century, much of ethnographic analysis in anthropology was dominated by structural-functionalism. Such studies were often ahistorical, generally focused on artificially bounded commu nities, and tended to use the equilibrium or harmony model to describe social relations. In the ethnography of law, the longitudinal method was rarely used. In fact, Llewelyn and Hoebel (1941), who might or might not be considered structural-functionalist, took cases spanning a sev enty-year period and compressed them into an ethnographic present time dimension. In our critiques of these earlier works, the nonuse of history and the equilibrium or harmony models have become theoretical obstacles to be overcome.
