Sociocultural anthropologists examine social patterns and practices across cultures, with a special interest in how people live in particular places and create meaning. The goal of this course is to provide students with a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts used by Anthropologists in the study of human behaviour. Topics include the anthropological perspective; research methods; economies; expressive culture; religion; kinship and social relationships; illness and healing; and organization and power. Examples will be drawn from a variety of societies.
