Harold B. Barclay (January 3, 1924^[1] – 20 December 2017) was a professor emeritus in anthropology at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta.^[2] His research focused on rural society in modern Egypt and the northern Arab Sudan as well as political anthropology and anthropology of religion. He is also commonly acknowledged as a notable writer in anarchist theory, specialising in theories involving the structure and oppressive systems of the state and how society would operate without a formal government.
