What is cultural anthropology? Before beginning as a college student, I had no idea what cultural anthropology was. In this video, I will explain cultural anthropology and everything that comes with it. From career opportunities to my opinions as a student, in this video you will get it all. Simply put, cultural anthropology is the study of living cultures. I hope you enjoy the video and don't hesitate to ask me any questions in the comment section!
Who am I? My name is Alivia Brown and I am currently an undergraduate Anthropology student at UCLA on a mission to find a career that I love. My major does not have a straight forward "path" as many would say and I am not only determined to prove that I can be successful in my major but also demonstrate my ability to find a career that brings me joy. This is my journey to expanding my global and anthropological knowledge. This is my journey to finding the best career I can. This is my journey to finding happiness. This is my journey to success.

I'm coming here from today's video. Somehow RU-vid chose this one to recommend and I really enjoyed watching it. I'm truly into the last quote about diversity. It's amazing that we can actually study it so deeply nowadays. It reminded me of how we talked about the last names in different countries, while I was teaching. Well, let me share a piece of discussion. In my country, we add -ova, -ov, ev, -eva to the ending of the last name and your last name can be different from your parents'. Why? Well to pay respect to the grandfather from father's side. So my last name is different from my parents and siblings. And it used to be some kind of fashionable trend two decades ago. Some families still use it, tho. Moreover, our father's names are written in all the documents. It goes like this 1. family name (+ov(a)) 2. first name 3. father's name (+oğli/+qizi). Before the Russian empire made colonies here, we didn't even used to have family names only father's and grandfather's. And even tho I'm keen on forensic anthropology, seems like I'll have to dive into cultural anthropology too.

Jack, that's so exciting! Anthro 1 is the class that confirmed my interest in anthropology (as soon as I finished it I declared my major). Who is your professor? I had Dr. Fessler but I know some of the other profs are great too. Good luck and let me know if you need any help on anything!

Salins work and Mintz as well blur the line on the idea of living culture being the key. You could make the point that Mary Douglas does as well. Cultural Anthropology is breaking down so many silos that it is more of a vibe or approach (that pushes back against ethnocentrism) instead of an traditional 19th or 20th discipline at times.

Hi Alivia, I just watched this video and it was really insightful. I have a bachelor's degree in international business and economics and I’m considering doing a Master's in Anthropology and Sociology. I'm really interested in the humanities side of things and hoping that I will be able to work for an NGO (such as UN, WHO, UNICEF, etc.) in the future. Please share with me your thoughts, if any. :)

Is cultural anthropology the same as sociocultural one?
@AliviaBrown
@AliviaBrown 2 года назад
Hi! In many ways cultural and sociocultural anthropology are quite similar. However, what they each focus on is slightly different! Sociocultural anthropology looks more closely at social institutions while cultural anthropology has an emphasis on cultures. I hope this helps!

There are not many cultures such as Tiktok, digital media etc.. The American culture for example, as other culture contain behaviors like digital, social media, TV . But these behaviors are within a culture. They become part of it. A culture is based on 4 major principles. Religion, family, money, and government. Some have a mix of these, others are are focused on one or two principles.
