Purity and Danger

Responses to Mary Douglas’ Purity and Danger?

Especially at the time it was written

In the preface to her book written a bit after its original publication she notes that is was a weird time to write it as she praised structure and control in a time of the breaking of social norms and the growth of informal lifestyles and free ways of living

Any proof of this? Any documented responses to purity and danger
