CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY IS THE SCIENCE THAT STUDIES HUMANS AS CULTURAL ANIMALS IN ALL THEIR MANIFESTATIONS THAT TRANSCEND THE NATURAL SPHERE. IT THEREFORE INVESTIGATES KINSHIP SYSTEMS (FAMILY AND MARRIAGE), POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS, WAR, AUTHORITY, ECONOMY, SYMBOLICAL ACTIVITIES (INCLUDING BODY PERFORMANCES), CUSTOMS AND RITUALS (INCLUDING MAGIC), COGNITIVE INSTITUTIONS AND MODELS (IDENTITY, ROLES, CHANGE, GENDER)), RELIGIONS AS A SYMBOLIC SYSTEM IN A CROSS-CULTURAL AND COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE. STUDENTS’ UNDERSTANDING CAPACITIES AND JUDGMENT AUTONOMY CAN BE PROMOTED THROUGH CAREFUL CRITICISM IN THE ANALYSIS OF THE SOURCES AND AN OPEN APPROACH FREE FROM ANY DOGMATIC PRECONCEPTIONS. |
