ANTH 0320 - Political Anthropology

Credits: 3

Using culture as a lens, this course focuses on political development. Specifically using anthropological tools, we will focus on the development and impact of the cultural origins on modern political processes and its institutions, both Western and non-Western; the meaning and courses of political identity in complex contemporary societies; and the prospects for democracy and Western-style political institutionalization among, and within, the world's diverse civilizations.
