ANTH 3 - (BH) Culture, Tradition and Transformation
Semester Hours:3Fall, Spring
Anthropology has provided many critical revisions of the concept of
culture and has thus shaped our modern world view. Is culture
synonymous with tradition? How did people’s capacity for culture
evolve? How do cultures transform themselves? What is the difference
between the humanistic and scientific approaches to understanding
culture change? How can we use the study of other cultures to
understand our own? (Formerly Primitive World & its Transformations)
