Wojna w społecznościach pierwotnych ma często inne znaczenie społeczne, przyczyny i przebieg działań zbrojnych aniżeli w społeczeństwach o wyższym rozwoju kulturowym. Również delimitacja granic krajowych czy plemiennych jest inaczej rozumiana i nie zawsze broniona, zwłaszcza jeśli istnieją sąsiednie obszary niczyje, ucieczkowe. Bardzo często same rozprawy zbrojne przeprowadzane są obrzędowo; unika się zadawania i ponoszenia większych strat śmiertelnych. Stąd wojna stanowi często tylko demonstrację siły zbrojnej.

War in primitive societies often has different social significance, causes and course of military actions than in societies with a higher cultural development. Also, delimitation of national or tribal borders is understood differently and not always defended, especially if there are no neighbouring areas with the possibility to escape. Very often the armed clashes are carried out ritually, without unnecessary fatal losses. Thus, war is often just a demonstration of military force.
