1. In the United States, what are some of the primary correlations with increased crime rates?

2. What is an egalitarian society? (Please put the answer in your own words.)

3. For each “band”, “tribe”, “chiefdom”, and “State” describe the type of leadership systems that exists, as well as an example of a culture (either from the text or from another section of our course) and support why the cultural group is an example of that system.

4. Bodley has been talking throughout his book about “tribes”. What type(s) of political system(s) do tribes have (as identified in Gezon and Kottak’s Political Systems). Explain.

5. Explain how informal social aspects of political systems (such as hegemony and gossip) work to maintain social control.
