Anthropology: 25 Concepts in Anthropology

I'm Nick Herriman, lecturer at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia. This presentation concerns the concept of socio-cultural anthropology itself. Important concepts and terms covered include anthropology (biological; linguistic; archaeological; socio-cultural); discipline (e.g. English; history; economics, anthropology etc.); anthropological lens (similar to "anthropological toolkit"); relativism; holism; comparison; fieldwork.

About me: I'm Nick Herriman, author of the books "Entangled State" and "Witch-hunt and Conspiracy". I lecture in Anthropology at La Trobe University. I am also the 'Audible Anthropologist' on iTunes.

About "25 Concepts in Anthropology": I preview what I think are the 25 most important concepts in socio-cultural anthropology. Each concept provides a unique insight into what it is to be human.
