Sometime before 1975, the US government hired a number of anthropologists
for something they called "Project:  Camelot".  They were supposed to study
the mechanics of Chilean society, the object being to identify cultural
weak points and hot-spots with the intent of causing a cultural collapse.
The anthropologists refused (since the major idea behind anthropology is
understand cultures, not destroy them).  This is documented in the book
*Culture, People, & Nature, 2nd Ed.*) by Marvin Harris.
Does anyone know the results of Project Camelot and what happened to
the anthropologists?
