Anthropology
'the science of humanity'
Anthropology is the study of humans and their evolution, documented and viewed throughout history as comparative narratives of society and culture.
Similarly to Sociology, Social Anthropology focuses on determining how societies function and interact, documenting interactions of local communities with wider global forces, gaining insight to human behavior and socio-cultural dynamics, to further understand global events of historical, pre and post-industrial societies.
By using participant observation and digging deep to find answers to questions about the how's and why's of society, the more information is revealed, an ever complex trail to investigate unfolds.
