http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/cultural/anthropology/culturalanth.html

Extractions: Cultural Anthropology encompasses three broad topics within which are numerous other specialties. Ethnology involves the study of contemporary societies, or societies that exist today. Ethnologists use a technique called participant observation in their research that was developed by Franz Boas Marshall Sahlins used the participant observation method and developed the theory of the original affluent society. He said that foragers are the original affluent society, because members of these societies spend less time working than members of so called civilized societies, and thus have more time for leisure. Napoleon Chagnon has recently studied the Yanomamo using the participant observation method. The study of linguistics is the study of language. Two important ideas in the study of linguistics are the tabula rasa which was developed by Noam Chomsky and the Sapir Whorf hypothesis . Archaeologists typically study prehistory by reconstructing a society based on remains. A new subfield of archaeology, historical archaeology, however, deals with history. Lewis Binford and Gordon Willey are important American Archaeologists today.
Cultural Anthropology - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
cultural anthropology. In the early 20th century sociocultural anthropology developed in different forms in Europe and the United States.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_anthropology

Extractions: Other languages: Dansk Deutsch Esperanto Nederlands ... Polski From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Cultural anthropology , also called socio-cultural anthropology, is one of four commonly recognized fields of anthropology , the holistic study of humanity. It reflects in part a reaction against earlier Western discourses based on an opposition between " culture " and " nature ," according to which some human beings lived in a "state of nature." Anthropologists argue that culture is "human nature," and that all people have a capacity to classify experiences, encode classifications symbolically, and teach such abstractions to others. Since culture is learned, people living in different places have different cultures. Anthropologists have also pointed out that through culture people can adapt to their environment in non-genetic ways, so people living in different environments will often have different cultures. Much of anthropological theory has been motivated by an appreciation of and interest in the tension between the local (particular cultures) and the global (a universal human nature, or the web of connections between people in distant places). Modern socio-cultural anthropology has its origins in 19th century "ethnology."
