Anthropology

Anthropology,
Social science

Modern anthropology dates its origin to roughly a century ago, in the work of Boas and Malinowski, although its roots are much older. Since its founding as a distinct modern discipline, it has typically been identified as a four-field enterprise (cultural or social anthropology, biological or physical anthropology, linguistic anthropology, and archaeology), with, of course, many local and historical variations. Moreover, it has traditionally been associated with the study of “traditional” or “tribal” societies; however, since the 1960s and 1970s, it has undergone intense self-criticism and reinvention, including an expansion into contemporary subjects and global processes.
