Reviews for The Decline of Community in Zinacantan: Economy, Public Life, and Social Stratification, 1960-1987
"This fascinating study is a fine example of the benefits of long-term research in a particular place. It is also an excellent reflection of the sort of anthropological work that 'development professionals' should take seriously. . . . Cancian also contributes to current debates within anthropology."—Development Policy Review
