He regarded frequent rebellions to replace incumbents of political offices (as against revolutions to alter the structure of offices) as inherent in these politics. Later he connected this situation with modes of husbandry, problems of the devolution of power, types of weapons and the law of treason. He advanced to a general theory of ritual, as well as to general propositions about the position of officials representing conflicting interests within a hierarchy, typified by the Afric 410 0$aRoutledge library editions.$pAnthropology and ethnography. 410 0$aAfrica (Routledge (Firm)) ;$v4. 606 $aPrimitive societies 606 $aTribes$zAfrica 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPrimitive societies. 615 0$aTribes 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a306.2/0967 700 $aGluckman$b Max$f1911-1975.,$0127376 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464160703321 996 $aOrder and rebellion in tribal Africa$91300964 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04030nam 2200685 450 001 9910790631403321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a0-691-11794-2 010 $a1-4008-4962-4 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400849628 035 $a(CKB)2550000001136148 035 $a(EBL)1441390 035 $a(OCoLC)862048564 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001152500 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11624813 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001152500 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11165236 035 $a(PQKB)11474578 035 $a(OCoLC)868973042 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse37257 035 $a(DE-B1597)447749 035 $a(OCoLC)979579873 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400849628 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1441390 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10786926 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL535851 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1441390 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001136148 100 $a20131106h20062005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|||||||nn|n 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAmerica's crisis of values $ereality and perception /$fWayne Baker 205 $aCourse Book 210 1$aPrinceton, New Jersey ;$aOxfordshire, England :$cPrinceton University Press,$d2006. 210 4$dİ2005 215 $a1 online resource (327 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-691-12787-5 311 $a1-306-04600-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $t Frontmatter -- $tContents -- $tList of Illustrations -- $tAcknowledgments -- $tCHAPTER ONE.

Has America lost its traditional values? Many politicians and religious leaders believe so, as do the majority of Americans, based on public opinion polls taken over the past several years. But is this crisis of values real? This book explores the moral terrain of America today, analyzing the widely held perception that the nation is in moral decline. It looks at the question from a variety of angles, examining traditional values, secular values, religious values, family values, economic values, and others. Using unique data from the World Values Surveys, the largest systematic attempt ever made to document attitudes, values, and beliefs around the world, this book systematically evaluates the perceived crisis of values by comparing America's values with those of over 60 other nations. The results are surprising. The evidence shows overwhelmingly that America has not lost its traditional values, that the nation compares favorably with most other societies, and that the culture war is largely a myth. The gap between reality and perception does not represent mass ignorance of the facts or an overblown moral panic, Baker contends. Rather, the widespread perception of a crisis of values is a real and legitimate interpretation of life in a society that is in the middle of a fundamental transformation and that contains growing cultural contradictions. Instead of posing a problem, the author argues, this crisis rhetoric serves the valuable social function of reminding us of what it means to be American. As such, it preserves the ideological foundation of the nation. 606 $aSocial values$zUnited States 606 $aSocial ethics$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xSocial conditions 607 $aUnited States$xMoral conditions 615 0$aSocial values 615 0$aSocial ethics 676 $a303.3/72/0973 700 $aBaker$b Wayne E$0320589 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790631403321 996 $aAmerica's crisis of values$93708047 997 $aUNINA
