Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book documents an in-depth anthropological study of a Navajo community carried out by an individual who lived among the community as an embedded participant observer. This study, carried out in the mid-1950s, focuses on the role of the local trading post in the lives of the Navajo people in the community and the ways it shapes their cultural practices and traditions. It explores the motivations and behaviors of the trader and how that, in turn, influences the lives of the Navajo people. The author analyzes the complex social system that emerges from the interactions between the trader and the Navajo, paying particular attention to the economic relationships that exist between the two. Through its examination of the impact of the trader on the Navajo people, this book illustrates the ways in which cross-cultural interactions can both preserve and alter cultural traditions.
