when people ask me what anthropology is, I usually give them the british social functionalist definition, because it sounds most “social scientific”. what could be a non biased explanation of what anthropology is for nonanthros?
- is there a way to deal with workplace stress that doesn’t sound like another bourgeios urban advice?
