Small place, large issues: an introduction to social and cultural anthropology, 2nd ed. London: pluto press: 294-311: wolf, eric (1990 [1982]): europe and the people without history. Historians, economists and political scientists take separate nations as their basic framework of inquiry. Sociology continues to divide the world into separate societies. The creation of false models of reality by endowing nations, societies or cultures with qualities of internally homogenous and externally distinctive and bounded objects- assumes west and eastern, developed divisions. This rejects our ability to understand their mutual encounter and confrontations. Split into separate and unequal specialties and disciplines justified for the specialties themselves.
