| Abstract | The history of humanity spread over several millennia, from the cave man to the astronaut, has witnessed several transitions – from hunting-food gathering to food production; from pastoralism to settled agriculture; from mere subsistence economy to surplus generation; from a relatively egalitarian pre-class to an extremely stratified and complex class society; from simple nomadic bands and clans to tribes; and from tribal chiefdom to state formation. Which society of the world during these long histories of varied transitions has not witnessed wars, violence, pillage, plunder, killing (of both humans and animals) and torturous exploitation of human labour by humans? Our willful amnesia cannot wish them away. |
