Question 2 2 pts
Scenario: An anthropologist encountered a tribal village that had not previously been studied by anthropologists. He found that the members of the village had an extremely unusual trading system, but he was afraid to tell them that he wanted to study their economic pattern, for fear that it would change their behavior. Instead, the anthropologist told the tribe that he was interested in their marriage patterns, but he secretly observed and recorded the details of their system of trade. He later published a report about their trading system, but never let the people in the tribe know that he had done so.
