520    How should we tell the histories of academic disciplines? 
       All too often, the political and institutional dimensions 
       of knowledge production are lost beneath the intellectual 
       debates. This book redresses the balance. Written in a 
       narrative style and drawing on archival sources and oral 
       histories, it depicts the complex pattern of personal and 
       administrative relationships that shape scholarly worlds. 
       Focusing on the field of social anthropology in twentieth-
       century Britain, this book describes individual, 
       departmental and institutional rivalries over funding and 
       influence. It examines the efforts of scholars such as 
       Bronislaw Malinowski, Edward Evans-Pritchard and Max 
       Gluckman to further their own visions for social 
       anthropology. Did the future lie with the humanities or 
       the social sciences, with addressing social problems or 
       developing scholarly autonomy? This new history situates 
       the discipline's rise within the post-war expansion of 
       British universities and the challenges created by the end
       of Empire.
