RECLAIMING ANTHROPOLOGY
FOR SCIENCE:
A LIBERTARIAN APPROACH
Dr Edward DuttonScientific anthropologists tend to argue for the veracity of
their approach and assume that the most logical approach
will ultimately reclaim the discipline from postmodernists
and extreme-naturalists. This article advocates scientific
anthropology but stresses that being logically coherent is
only part of the process of scientific revolutions. It demonstrates
that anthropology is broadly in the grip of those
who are implicitly religious—not rational—and then presents
a libertarian manifesto on how anthropology—in
practical terms—might be returned to the scientific fold.
