This development may, indeed, prove to be as revolutionary as the atom bomb. Applying cultural anthropology to modern rather than “primitive” cultures, experimenting with groups inside and outside the laboratory, and measuring the sociopsychological aspects of large social bodies—together with the combination of economic, cultural, and psychological fact-finding—are all developments that started before the war. However, by providing unprecedented facilities and by demanding realistic and workable solutions to scientific problems, the war greatly accelerated the shift of the social sciences to a new level of development.
