content: Materials from Bunzel's group make up the bulk of this series.  These include interviews with Chinese immigrants in New York City, analyses of Chinese literature and movies, and transcripts from the group's seminars.  The transcripts of the seminars are interspersed with those of RCC's general meetings.  Several of the papers written by the group have been arranged into chapters in the folders following the seminar transcripts; most were not published.  Reprints of papers that have been published can be found at the end of Subseries: Chinese Group.  Among the papers in Subseries: Chinese Group are drafts of Bunzel's manuscripts Explorations in Chinese Culture and An Anthropological Approach to Chinese Communism, co-authored with John Weakland.  Theodora Abel, Jane Belo, Elizabeth Hellersberg, Virginia Heyer Young, Warner Muensterberger, Gitel Poznanski Steed, and John Weakland were some of the members of the group studying China. Their work is represented in this series.
