What reading level is The Tribe And Intertribal Relations in Australia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The individual Australian belongs, firstly, to a tribe, and, secondly, to a particular local group within it ; but from the point of view of justice proper, the solidarity of the tribe as a whole does not come into play. The tribe is merely a loose aggregation of local groups, which act inde- pendently ; there is no central government direct- ing the tribe as a whole. The tribal unity goes very little beyond the possession of the common name. The only occasion when the whole tribe may assemble ...is the holding of the initiation ceremonies ; while even in this case, if the tribal territory is very wide, it is only a part which so assembles. The unit group for justice is the intratribal local group ; it is only in the case of war proper that the tribal unity shows itself, and then only ii6 JUSTICE 117 in the fact that revenge is taken indiscriminately by a party on any members of another tribe that they may meet. But we find no case, even here, of the avenging tribe acting as a whole. The local groups which are our units for justice may belong to the same tribe, or they may be subdivisions each of a different tribe.
