Intro to Cultural & Social Anthropology
This class introduces the core concepts and methods of Cultural and Social Anthropology. Through the ethnographic study of human societies, anthropology has emerged as a dynamic discipline that inquiries into the complexity of humanity. It has produced new kinds of inquiry into race, class, gender, history, power, language, economy, culture, and local, transnational, and global phenomena. This course will introduce students to anthropology’s unique approach to studying human culture and society and teach them core anthropological concepts. It will also present students with cross-cultural case studies on contemporary issues, including environmental problems and climate change, capitalism, gender and sexuality, race, immigration, and colonialism.
