Book excerpt: "Ancient Society, or Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery, Through Barbarism to Civilization" is a significant contribution to studies of cultural anthropology. Its author, Lewis Henry Morgan, was an American statesman, anthropologist and critic of materialism. "Ancient Society" develops Morgan's theory of the three stages of human progress, which he theorizes progressed from Savagery through Barbarism to Civilization. Morgan's goal was to trace the advance of human development from different branches of the human family. He uses Greek, Roman and Native American family structure to explain the evolution of family. Morgan conceived of human development as units called ethna, which are similar to inventions, discoveries and domestic institutions. In his book, he traces ethna beginning at subsistence living, then to establishment of government, development of language, and the various forms of family. The final ethna are religion, house and architecture, and property. Morgan was a critic of the Three-Stage theories of history, and the book discusses why he believed that classifying different eras into bronze, stone, etc. was inadequate as a measure of human progress. Morgan was America's most influential social critic. His work was cited by Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Charles Darwin, and Sigmund Freud. "Ancient Society, or Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery, Through Barbarism to Civilization" is a compelling book for intellectual readers and those interested in a new way of looking at human development.

Download or read book A Short History of Progress written by Ronald Wright and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2004 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each time history repeats itself, so it's said, the price goes up. The twentieth century was a time of runaway growth in human population, consumption, and technology, placing a colossal load on all natural systems, especially earth, air, and water — the very elements of life. The most urgent questions of the twenty-first century are: where will this growth lead? can it be consolidated or sustained? and what kind of world is our present bequeathing to our future?In his #1 bestseller A Short History of Progress Ronald Wright argues that our modern predicament is as old as civilization, a 10,000-year experiment we have participated in but seldom controlled. Only by understanding the patterns of triumph and disaster that humanity has repeated around the world since the Stone Age can we recognize the experiment's inherent dangers, and, with luck and wisdom, shape its outcome.
Download or read book Social Complexity and Complex Systems in Archaeology written by Dries Daems and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Complexity and Complex Systems in Archaeology turns to complex systems thinking in search of a suitable framework to explore social complexity in Archaeology. Social complexity in archaeology is commonly related to properties of complex societies such as states, as opposed to so-called simple societies such as tribes or chiefdoms. These conceptualisations of complexity are ultimately rooted in Eurocentric perspectives with problematic implications for the field of archaeology. This book provides an in-depth conceptualisation of social complexity as the core concept in archaeological and interdisciplinary studies of the past, integrating approaches from complex systems thinking, archaeological theory, social practice theory, and sustainability and resilience science. The book covers a long-term perspective of social change and stability, tracing the full cycle of complexity trajectories, from emergence and development to collapse, regeneration and transformation of communities and societies. It offers a broad vision on social complexity as a core concept for the present and future development of archaeology. This book is intended to be a valuable resource for students and scholars in the field of archaeology and related disciplines such as history, anthropology, sociology, as well as the natural sciences studying human-environment interactions in the past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading this book takes you into deep considerations of who you are. Lewis Henry Morgan dives into the development of society in prehistoric times. His controversial proposition is that the earliest human domestic institution was the matrilineal clan, not the patriarchal family. In his book, Morgan rejects the Ages of Stone, Bronze, and Iron, as being insufficient characterizations of progress and for overlapping, and instead suggested that a society has a life like that of an individual and divided it into three main stages: Savagery, Barbarism, and Civilization, with three subdivisions for each. He demonstrates the first distinction of man from other animals, and reveals the origin of language, beginning as gestures, then evolving into monosyllabic, and then polysyllabic vocalizations. Morgan is the only American social theorist to be cited by such diverse scholars as Karl Marx, Charles Darwin, and Sigmund Freud in their works. Understand his fundamental thoughts on social evolution and learn why this book is banned in many universities worldwide! "There exists a definitive book on the origins of society, as definitive as Darwin's book for biology, and it is, naturally, Morgan's Ancient Society." Friedrich Engels
