N2  - Anthropologists and sociologists who have studied primitive law and to a degree freed themselves from both semantic quibbles and the limitations set by public policy still have not applied their method to contemporary law in the United States. An anthropological study must go beyond both the glamorous and the social reform aspects and study the unique structure of the law, the type of people it attracts, their training, and the role the law has played in shaping present-day society.<p />
