Энгельке Думай как антрополог

For more than a hundred years, researchers in the fields of social and cultural anthropology have been exploring the world—from urban agglomerations in Africa to the suburbs of London, Beijing, or Barcelona—collecting everything from the most mundane to the most... mysterious evidence of how people organize their lives and express their values. Matthew Engelke, a professor at the Department of Religion at Columbia University, demonstrates through numerous theoretical arguments and facts why anthropology is important: it allows us to better understand others with views and beliefs that differ from our own, and thereby gain a better understanding of ourselves.
