Description

This Routledge monograph brings together recent essays by Maurice Bloch exploring the intersection of cognitive and social sciences. The collection combines naturalistic approaches to cognition with ethnographic specificity, examining how cultural knowledge transmits across societies. Bloch's characteristic methodology uses cognitive science to critique traditional anthropological assumptions about religion, kinship, belief, and ritual. Part of the LSE Monographs on Social Anthropology series, volume 78, these essays offer theoretical contributions to understanding human culture through an integrated lens that respects both biological foundations and historical contexts. Ideal for academics, researchers, and students studying anthropology, cultural transmission, cognitive approaches to society, and the relationship between social practices and mental processes.

Key Features

Explores fundamental topics including religion, kinship, belief systems, and ritual through a cognitive-anthropological framework.

Published by Routledge as part of the LSE Monographs on Social Anthropology series, volume 78.

Combines naturalistic cognitive approaches with deep respect for cultural and historical ethnographic specificity.

Bridges disciplinary gaps between cognitive science and anthropology for researchers and advanced students.
