Relativism For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Cultural Relativism.
Cultural Anthropology gives three distinct
meanings of cultural relativism a moral stance
that requires anthropologists to suspend moral
and ethical judgments when interacting with a
culture different from their own, a
methodological strategy that allows the
anthropologist to pay specific attention to the
uniqueness of a culture, and an epistemological
position that cultures are unique and therefore
knowledge about different cultures is almost
inherently not comparable. (Sec. 1.3).

ASHFORD ANT 101 Week 3 DQ 2 Doing Business with
Family For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Doing Business with
Family. Nowak and Laird's Applying Anthropology
6.2 box, in Cultural Anthropology, proposes the
following question The familiar saying never do
business with family advises against the
practices used in many of the chiefdom societies
discussed in this chapter. This old saying
implies that doing business with family will
create conflict, whereas chiefdom societies
welcome and encourage such close-knit economic
exchanges as a way of preventing conflict. In
fact, in an interesting article on family
businesses, Bertrand and Schoar comment on how
cultures based on strong family ties can have a
negative impact on economic development.
