Dept. of thoughts, kerleone, March 19, 2003 at 12:00:47 PM CET Ethno::log: Popularizing Anthropology? The colleagues from the University Trier put a link to the ethno::log from their site. Many thanks for that! Interesting: They filed us under the section "Polpularizing Anthropology". It make me think about this site, it's a totally new view. On one hand, this is really "popular" anthropology, as we collect information in a fairly high amount from popular sources. On the other hand, the intention was not to write for the popular masses. But if I look at our visitors, we have a lot non-scientists as readers. So, in fact, we maybe are popularizing anthropology, which isn't something bad. But mainly we don't carry information from the inside of anthropology to the masses. This is sad, but it's due to anthropology is not happening in the internet. So, aren't we popularizing anthropology? Anyway, main score of this page is to collect all interesting things from anthropology in the internet. Scientific or not, this doesn't care. It's always good to know what's going on, and the news sources of the internet can deliver a lot of actual information about the regions which are of high interest for anthropology. ... Comment

No, then it's also anthropology to go in the kitchen and make some coffee. It thinks this page is a source for anthropologists. What we post here, and what we read here, can be helpful for anthropologists. But in this form, it is not anthropology itself. Not because this is not possible in the internet. It's just because this is a kind of news page, only reporting about other, sometimes anthropologically texts. If someone publishes it's fieldwork here, which is technically possible, maybe then it's anthropology. ... Link ... Comment |
