Research in Contemporary Cultures records, 1939-1962, bulk 1947-1952
19.5 linear feetThis collection contains the records of the Research in Contemporary Cultures project (1947-1953) begun by Ruth Benedict at Columbia University, and carried out by Margaret Mead at Columbia University and the American Museum of Natural History after Benedict's death in 1948. The records of three successor projects, Studies in Soviet Culture (1948-1952), Studies in Contemporary Culture (1951-1952), and and Study Program of Human Health and the Ecology of Man (1954-1956) are also included. The purpose of these projects was anthropological study at a distance of global cultures inaccessible for direct observation, in an attempt to establish the "national character" of countries of geopolitical interest to the United States government. These records are duplicates of materials also available at the Library of Congress in the Margaret Mead papers and South Pacific Ethnographic Archives, 1838-1996.
