Proxy-primitive decisions
Silberbauer unique on ‘Political process in G/wi bands’
Among all the anthropological material I have read in search of straightforward non-moralistic empirical data on decision making (“decision” and “decide” seem to be the rarest words in anthropology) this chapter is, I currently think, the best single account and the one most in harmony with my ‘primitive’ intuitions about prehistory.
