@HeavenlyPossum@WorbsIntoWords@Graebers_Ws@radicalanthro@kalolbaisakhi @shadow_digita @Itmechr3 What was their opinion of Woodburn's definition of 'assertive egalitarians' in the essay that they cite?

@BSELawrence @erikphoel i am referring to his short, but very influential1982 essay 'Egalitarian Societies', but also his work with the Hadza. Since they do refer to him, i thought it odd that they would brush off his insights about egalitarianism without proper discussion. https://t.co/fCgEwVjpqe
