CH 2201 - Intro to Cultural Anthropology

Institution:

SUNY College at Old Westbury

Subject:

Comparative Humanities

Description:

Cultural anthropology explores the concept of human culture from a world-wide perspective. Leading approaches to the study and interpretation of cultural behavior are integrated with case studies of diverse ways of life. By learning how other people's cultures "make sense" in relation to the total environment in which they have developed, we come to better understand our own culture, and the social needs, capacities, and creativity that have earned us all the name Homosapiens. Offered every year.
