description: Unique in its field, this book offers a comprehensive overview of political anthropology, including its history, its major research findings, and its theoretical concerns both past and present. Significantly updated and expanded with extensive changes in many chapters, three additional chapters, and a new conclusion, this second edition provides the basic text and structure for a full course. Renownded anthropologist Victor Turner called the first edition a "succinct and lucid account of the sporadic growth of political anthropology over four decades . . . the introduction we have all been waiting for."
