In fairness to @hilaryagro, I couldn’t think of a single work of anthropology that didn’t validate progressive prejudices, either.https://twitter.com/matthews_bd/status/993526575193878529 …
Yes. What I’ve learned today is that anthropologists are very open minded, but all specific examples thereof are secrets and it’s deeply offensive to ask for them.

Anthropologys history as a tool of colonialism (anthropologists were paid to do ethnography to learn how to pacify indigenous groups) have made it particularly sensitive to the idea of leaving bias unexamined, or to pretending that within the work we do that bias doesn't exist

I'm sympathetic to that take and maybe if I have some time I will try to find some examples maybe at another time. I mean directly to your question, works like Mauss' The Gift or Bourdieu's La Distinction (you can watch the doc on him too) come to mind
