  • The key characteristics of culture as a concept
  • Relocation and dislocation of peoples
  • The conflict between political, social and ethnic boundaries
  • The concept of economic anthropology

Cultural Anthropology: 101 includes case studies from both classic and contemporary ethnography, as well as a comprehensive bibliography and index. It is an essential guide for students approaching this fascinating field for the first time.
