Political correctness in social anthropology has made the terms primitive society, social evolution and even human nature unacceptable, and removed the possibility of open academic debate about them. Written from the perspective of a lifetimes research, this collection of papers takes a hard look at these taboos, and challenges some fundamental assumptions of post-modern thinking. Including some new material on memetics, evolutionary psychology and Darwinian theory in the social sciences, this collection provides a long-overdue assessment of some key topics in modern anthropology.

Adam Kuper’s iconoclastic intellectual history argues that the idea of “primitive society” is a western myth. The “primitive” is imagined as the opposite of the “civilised”. But this is a protean myth. As ideas about civilisation change, so the image of primitive society must be adjusted. By way of fascinating account of classic texts in anthropology, ancient history and law, Kuper reveals how this myth underpinned academic research and inspired political programmes. Its ancestry is traced back to classical western beliefs about barbarians and savages, and Kuper also tackles the latest version of the myth, the idea of a global identity of “indigenous peoples”. The Reinvention of Primitive Society is a key text in the history of anthropology, and will interest anyone who has puzzled about the very idea of “primitive society” – and so, by implication, about “civilisation”.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IX Property NOTIONS of property tinge every phase of social life. Marriage is in part consummated by the transfer of commodities and the woman acquired as a mate may herself be regarded as a chattel, a conception that reacts on her status in the family. Polygyny was seen to depend on the husband's fortune; and at least among the Wahuma temporary polyandry results from the lack of property for the purchase of an individual spouse. If the theory advanced in this book is valid, the transmission of property has been a_ otent factor in the creation of the sib organization; and in a subsequent chapter will be traced the influence that wealth exerts on the development of rank and castes. So a volume might easily be written solely on the functions of property in society. In the present chapter we are concerned more particularly with the manner in which it is held and inherited, and in the forms it assumes among primitive peoples; and above all must be attacked a moot-problem of long standing, the question in how far primitive tribes recognize individual ownership at all or merely practise communism. Pr1m1t1ve Commun1sm Those yvho set out with the evolutionary dogma that every social condition now found in civilization must have developed from some condition far removed from it through a series of transitional stages, will consistently embrace the hypothesis that the property sense so highly developed with . us was wholly or largely wanting in primitive society, that - .v it must have evolved from its direct antithesis, communism in goods of every kind. This assumption is demonstrably false; nevertheless something may be urged in extenuation of those who deny to savages and to early man the notion of private ownership. In the first...
