The Psychological Frontiers of Society - Kardiner and Associates

Kardiner continues his fruitful collaboration with anthropological field workers, further applying his method of inferring from their reports the 'basic character' which corresponds to each culture. The basic character, as the term is used in this book, though it seems to be an elastic concept, comprises, generally speaking, what an extensive psychoanalytically informed personality study of the common man in a given group would presumably show. Certain of Kardiner's inferences from the field workers' reports possessed a broad explanatory value, accounting for many traits observed in the peoples studied; others could be confirmed by subsequent checking in the field. Hence, Kardiner's interpretations were extremely useful to his collaborators; indeed many social scientists see in this collaboration a new era in their field.
