An introduction to cultural anthropology. Major aspects of culture (social organization, economics, religion, etc.), cultural patterns and socio-cultural change are emphasized (Formerly SOC 2323; may not be repeated for credit.).

Course Objectives:

2. A second goal of the course is to achieve a better understanding of our way of life in the in the USA, and in the Valley by comparing our culture and sub cultures to the way of life of others.

3..Finally the course will try to achieve an understanding of anthropological data, and to collect ethnographic information.
