It played a leading role in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 for which its citizens subsequently suffered a consider-

A Formal Analysis of Power Relations and Culture Change

A BASIC PROBLEM in the analysis of social change has been the search for regularities patterns of recurrent social phenomena. In the past, this search has been postulated on the assumption that such regularities exist and are discoverable. It is possible to quarrel with this assumption, but that does not obscure the fact that it is a reasonable and justifiable assumption, and argument about it merely obscures a more fundamental problem.

Indeed, the controversy upon which it bears will be very familiar to all, and yet of sufficient importance that any modest contribution should lead further to its resolution. Historical inferences in cultural anthropology are largely confined to studies of contemporary non-literate peoples. They involve, among other things, the analysis of culture trait (and trait-complex) distributions, in the attempt to convert space relations into temporal or genetic relations;2 the use of informants of more or less shattered cultures; the application of documents of missionaries, traders, explorers, settlers, and other emissaries of western civilization; and the supplementation of these materials by archaeological evidence. History in this sense concerns itself with problems of how particular cultures and civilizations come to be what they are, what processes of culture growth or change have operated, and in what manner, in the instance of each specific culture and its relations through time with other cultures. In another sense, the conventional monograph on the life-ways of a primitive society, from a cross-sectional point of view, has frequently been labelled history. Kroeber speaks of such studies as descriptive integrations,3 Radcliffe-Brown as
