'Creating Order' is in many ways an unusual study, particularly when seen against the background of the anthropological work that has emanated from South Africa over the last three decades. It is one of the few community studies, based on detailed fieldwork of a Malinowskian quality and taking a holistic viewpoint, to come out of the region since the Golden Age of South African ethnography that was distinguished by the classics of Junod, Hunter, the Kriges and Hilda Kuper.
