The Structuralist Theory and Lewis Henry Morgan's Influence
Originally published in the UK in 1970, this book explores how structuralist theory and methodology in the study of kinship and social organization developed by British and American anthropologists are directly descended from the research of Lewis Henry Morgan. Fortes revisits Morgan's work, highlighting how misinterpretation has obscured the true significance of Morgan's ideas for anthropologists like Rivers and Radcliffe-Brown, and the generation of scholars they influenced.
