At the American Anthropological Association panel Science in Anthropology: An Open Discussion, H. Russell Bernard advocated a return of “big-tent” anthropology:“We should be the humanistic science and the scientific humanism that Eric Wolf described nearly 50 years ago.”

The standards are the same: the stories we tell must be supported by the evidence, and submitted to debate.

So, here’s the radical recommendation: let’s dissolve both the Society for Anthropological Sciences and the Society for Humanistic Anthropology. Almost every other society and section in the AAA has more information about their subject or members than either of these titles. The members can of course reformulate their Societies once they come up with names that tell us about what they are actually doing.

In the meantime, let’s get to building “the humanistic science and the scientific humanism that Eric Wolf described nearly 50 years ago.”
