About The Book
In his book Structure and Function in Primitive Society, Radcliffe-Brown states that the most important function of social beliefs and practices is the maintenance of social order, the balance in the relationship and significance of group over time. His proposals were taken up later by many of his students, especially by Edward Evans-Pritchard ethnographer Nuer and Azande peoples of central Africa. In both ethnographic work, the regulatory role of beliefs and social practices is present in the analysis of these societies, the first of which, Evans-Pritchard called “ordered anarchy.”
