The aim of this book and its companion
volume Culture and Human Nature is to bring
together a representative selection of the
writings of Edmund Leach
(1910-89),
a brilliant
and prolific anthropologist known not only in
his own field but to the educated public at
large. Leach perceived anthropology as a vital
and broadly based study of the human
condition, encompassing methods and ideas
from the natural sciences, the social sciences,
and the humanities. His varied and powerful
writings reflect the conviction that
anthropology is of direct and practical
importance to social policy and political debate.
This collection reveals the considerable range of
Leach s anthropological interests, the debates he
provoked, and the issues he championed.
Anthropology and Society highlights Leach s
writings on society , taken largely though not
exclusively from the early part of his career.
Here his writings on social structure, social
relations and social practices were heavily
informed by the functionalism of Malinowski
and Firth, and by an old-style ethnographer s
insistence on the importance of ethnographic
detail. His discussions about political
institutions and about kinship were generally
part of theoretical debates on how to model
social systems and describe human action, and
Leach was a searching critic of some of the
bedrock assumptions of mid-twentieth century
functionalist social theory.
The volume includes some of Leach s best-
known and most influential professional
writings, persuasive re-analyses of the work of
earlier anthropologists, and major statements
on kinship, ritual, classification, and taboo.
