In the study of man's struggle for existence, throughout the history of humanity and in all parts of the world, two distinct phenomena
emer.ge, that of society and that of culture. In an investigation of
life cf a people, it is necessary, therefore, to distinguish clearly
between these two concepts. Herskovits (1, p. 29) while emphasizing
the necessity for distinguishing the concept culture from its sister
concept society, at the same time stresses their essential interrelated=
ness. Not only is man a social being who essentially lives in groups
but every distinguishable human group is an organized aggregate of
individuals who follow a given way of life.
