As we have mentioned in recent articles many aspects of culture and society and I thought its time to understand and explain what we mean by culture and society according to Thomas.
One way of looking at society and culture is anthropology under the concept of an author’s main view.
It can be seen as a theory of social and cultural anthropology that can be studied with interest in the whole or society and also tries to simplify the relationship between many aspects of human’s existence.
The aim of anthropology is not only to account for social and cultural difference across the world but also to understand them.
Logically, the theory of anthropology distinguishes between social and cultural. Moreover the important concepts of anthropology are the comprehensive likeness between social systems and cultures.
Accordingly, any such systems and cultures can always be studied by using anthropology; alternatively contemporary research can be applied although these theories tend to reflect anthropological ideas. They also cover a huge variety and range of culture.
However, culture is hard to define as the word is ambiguous. It is derived from a Greek word meaning “cultivated” therefore culture and anthropology is literally knowledge about cultivated humans.
Although they are many often factors which are involved including those that is interesting to many anthropologists such as religion, political power and child raising traditions. Its state that knowledge is connected to obtain behaviour, in some cases that is true although to what extent well varies from society to society, also the method behind society need to be comprehended in terms of relationship in society and as well as between society.
Another way of looking at culture it can be seen as symbolic of humans come to being, for instance, history and tradition, where as society sometimes refers to organisation of human life, putting this into another way to get by and manage tasks that is constantly occurred under the human beings lives and it seems society is way of neighbouring and having relationship with in society as neighbourhood.
On the other hand, it is believed that anthropology has similarities with social sciences and humanities and also it’s clear that the path behind anthropology more likely to be understood by humanities and thereby society and culture become binding by it, in another word culture and society once become existence when anthropology and humanities are applied to it.
In some situations the concept of this tend to be followed as result of relationship between humanities and society and that creates culture with in society but whether believe it or not these all have to be studied by anthropological.
To conclude this it’s obvious that there are many ranges of definitions that are to be comprehended in culture and society under the author’s major points.
