| Popis: | If there is any more equivocal honor than to speak for sociology, it must be that of essaying to tell anthropologists their prospects in life. This position is mitigated slightly by some existing confusion of role among anthropologists. It is the more onerous because anthropology when directed toward complex societies appears either to identify itself with or compete with sociology for its field.1 The entire matter is further complicated by many sociologists' distrust of anthropological research methods applied to complex societies, and a correlative suspicion of theorizing sociologists by anthropologists priding themselves on pure empiricism. It will, however, be argued in this paper that in reference to complex society analysis, anthropology and sociology stand in complementary, as well as overlapping, relationship, theoretically, substantively and methodologically. |
