General Cultural Anthropology

Course Description

Dr. Doug Hayward explains the basic aspects of culture that anthropologists use to analyze people groups. Hayward's Christian approach to anthropology offers a nuanced and comprehensive understanding of culture to his audience. Notably, Hayward discusses how Christians can reasonably utilize the idea of cultural relativism in both research and missions.

Topics: the nature of people in culture; worldview and perception; culture change; a study of the subsystems of cultures, including social organization, religion, language and related topics.
