The question of the field anthropologist's participation or intervention in the affairs of the people he is studying has often been discussed. In the past (with the exception of James Spillius1), this question has been considered only in terms of the field worker who has a choice in the matter of intervention. The pros and cons in the discussions of this question have in fact been based on the assumption that there is always a free choice for the anthropologist in such field situations.2
