William Skinner, a Cornell University graduate student, set off for southwest China to conduct field research on rural social structure. He settled near the market town of Gaodianzi, Sichuan, and lived there for two and a half months, until the newly arrived Communists asked him to leave. During his time in Sichuan, Skinner kept detailed field notes and took scores of photos of rural life and unfolding events. Skinner went on to become a giant in his field-his obituary in American Anthropologist called him "the world's most influential anthropologist of China." A key portion of his legacy arose from his Sichuan fieldwork, contained in his classic monograph Marketing and Social Structure in Rural China. Although the People's Liberation Army confiscated Skinner's research materials, some had been sent out in advance and were discovered among the files donated to the University of Washington Libraries after his death. Skinner's notes and photos bring to life this rare glimpse of rural China on the brink of momentous change."--Publisher's description. 606 $aSocial structure$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01123372 606 $aSocial conditions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919811 606 $aRural conditions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01101474 606 $aCountry life$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00881405 606 $aHISTORY$zAsia$zChina$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xPopular Culture$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xAnthropology$xCultural$2bisacsh 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE$xPublic Policy$xCultural Policy$2bisacsh 606 $aCountry life$zChina$zSichuan Sheng 606 $aSocial structure$zChina$zSichuan Sheng 607 $aChina$zSichuan Sheng$2fast 607 $aSichuan Sheng (China)$xRural conditions 607 $aSichuan Sheng (China)$xSocial conditions$y20th century 608 $aDiaries. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aSocial structure. 615 7$aSocial conditions. 615 7$aRural conditions. 615 7$aCountry life. 615 7$aHISTORY 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xPopular Culture. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xAnthropology$xCultural. 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE$xPublic Policy$xCultural Policy. 615 7$aCountry life 615 7$aSocial structure 676 $a306.0951/38 700 $aSkinner$b G.
