Course content

The course examines key theoretical concepts and approaches in past and contemporary anthropology. Students are invited to navigate between the French, British and American schools. This journey will take them from the early writings by Boas, Malinowski and Lévi-Strauss to contemporary poststructuralist theories, including recent debates about culture, fieldwork, cognition, globalization and modernity. The course is designed to provide students with knowledge of antecedent traditions in anthropology as well as with a critical perspective on the processes of innovation and theory-building within anthropology.
