Social and Cultural Anthropology is an exciting study of human beings in all their diversity. Anthropologists seek to investigate the differences and the similarities between humans from different societies and cultures. There are three broad areas of inquiry. These are The Body, Conflict and Movement, Space and Time. We will investigate through books and film a range of different cultures and anthropological theories, including in-depth studies of New York crack dealers, Indian call-centre workers and Brazilians in search of the perfect body.
