Scholars have tended to emphasize the development of social complexity and inequality to explain this diversity. Robert L. Bettinger argues instead that "orderly anarchy," the emergence of small, autonomous groups, provided a crucial strategy in social organization. Drawing on ethnographic and archaeological data and evolutionary, economic, and anthropological theory, he shows that these small groups devised diverse solutions to environmental, technological, and social obstacles to the intensified use of resources. This book revises our understanding of how California became the most densely populated landscape in aboriginal North America. 410 0$aOrigins of human behavior and culture ;$v8. 606 $aIndians of North America$zCalifornia$xCivilization 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xCivilization. 676 $a979.4004/97 700 $aBettinger$b Robert L.$0594419 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463611403321 996 $aOrderly anarchy$92459576 997 $aUNINA
