Price offers a provocative account of the profound influence that the American security state has had on the field of anthropology since the Second World War. Using a wealth of information unearthed in CIA, FBI, and military records, he maps out the intricate connections between academia and the intelligence community and the strategic use of anthropological research to further the goals of the American military complex. The rise of area studies programs, funded both openly and covertly by government agencies, encouraged anthropologists to produce work that had intellectual value within the field while also shaping global counterinsurgency and development programs that furthered America's Cold War objectives. Ultimately, the moral issues raised by these activities prompted the American Anthropological Association to establish its first ethics code. Price concludes by comparing Cold War-era anthropology to the anthropological expertise deployed by the military in the post-9/11 era. 606 $aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography$2bicssc 610 $a20th century 610 $aanthropologists 610 $aanthropology 610 $acold war 610 $ahistory 610 $amilitary intelligence 610 $apolitical activity 610 $apolitical aspects 610 $ascience and state 610 $aunited states 615 7$aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography 700 $aPrice$b David H$0249960 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910976051703321 996 $aCold War Anthropology$94340674 997 $aUNINA
