| Description: | This edited volume explores the multiple pathways that may have given rise to social complexity from a variety of micro-historical, comparative, and theoretical frameworks. This interdisciplinary undertaking employs a variety of perspectives and methodologies that encompass both materialistic and non-materialistic approaches. Factors taken into consideration include, but are not limited to, feasts (manipulation of surpluses), famines (shortfalls), fighting (intra- and inter-group conflict), environmental factors (volcanism, climate change), demographic shifts (population increase/decrease) along with rituals and ceremonies (ideological propaganda). Findings from European, Asian, African, Oceanian, North and South American locations are put forth by an international cadre of archaeologists, cultural anthropologists, sociologists, and ethnohistorians. |
