Abstract:
"Acephalous societies live in the rainforest or on prairies as nomadic pastoralists. The covenantal societies are acephalous; however, they inhabit the sedentary civilized world. This collection of up-to-date research focuses on the sociology, politics, justice administration, relations with hierarchies, successes, and failures of these societies"--
