Robbers Cave-Part One



I read the story of the Robbers Cave Camp and with it, recalled the other “experimental anthropologists” accounts. Berreby does not make any statement about this experiment on these children. See D. Berreby, Us and Them (2005) wherein they bused a group of boys into a summer camp in Oklahoma and then "experiential anthropologist" Muzafer Sherif constructed a situation where the boys were divided into two camps and their mounting aggression to each other measured.

I decide to add a photo of some dead birds that were tagged by Alfred Russel Wallace, who is reported to have concurrently developed the “theory” of evolution, which of course is attributed to Darwin. (This is timely, since Darwin’s birthday is this month.)
