Description

Explore the intersection of sociology and anthropology with Comparative Studies in Kinship from the Routledge Library Editions: Anthropology and Ethnography. This academic collection presents a comparative ideal in practice, moving beyond mere assertion to provide evidence-based demonstrations of human social structures. Each essay addresses specific social problems by testing theory against empirical evidence. The text covers a wide range of essential anthropological topics, including incest and adultery, double descent systems, and marriage policy. Readers can also examine inheritance and social change, the circulation of women and children in northern Ghana, and Indo-European kinship. Originally published in 1969, this work remains a significant resource for those studying the complexities of human society and kinship systems.
