ForewordThe conception <strong>of</strong> this book was first developed in discussion with KarlKorsch, in 1947-195 3; it is to be regarded as an evolution <strong>the</strong>refrom.The International Institute <strong>of</strong> Social History, and its Director, Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr.Fr. de Jong Edz., were instrumental in carrying through <strong>the</strong> presentwork; without <strong>the</strong> initial support and continued cooperation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Institutethroughout its period <strong>of</strong> gestation it would not have been completed.*Those who have an idea <strong>of</strong> how a work <strong>of</strong> this nature is composedwill jusdy appreciate <strong>the</strong> kinds and qualities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> individual contributionsthat are necessary to it. The substantive contributions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Institute, Mr. Ch. B. Timmer, Mr. H. P. Harstick, andMr. Goetz Langkau, have been invaluable. Dr. Barbara Krader participatedin <strong>the</strong> completion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> work, and, in its later phases, step bystep. Many contributed <strong>the</strong>ir knowledge <strong>of</strong> particular fields ; here I willmention that <strong>of</strong> Dr. Angel Palerm on Aztec history. Drs. Stanley Diamondand Dell Hymes criticized <strong>the</strong> Introduction. To all those mentionedand o<strong>the</strong>rs beside go <strong>the</strong> acknowledgement <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir contributions and <strong>the</strong>expression <strong>of</strong> my thanks.February 1972.
