http://www.anthro.illinois.edu/faculty/cfennell/syllabus/tsusyll.html

Extractions: Fall 2003 This course is designed to introduce students to the anthropological study of different cultures, including ways of comparing and contrasting the structures of social relationships and belief systems that operate in different cultural settings. We will explore ways of trying to understand the world views and belief systems of other peoples by studying each of those systems in their particular contexts, and then comparing and contrasting different cultures and the contexts in which they are situated. This learning process involves a fascinating experience in which our western assumptions are revealed to us and thwarted when we examine various facets of the belief systems and traditions of non-western societies. After we try to understand other cultures on their own terms, we face the question of the degree to which observers can be judgmental about other cultures and life ways. We also question how our understanding of those cultures should shape the perspectives and policies of officials and academics who are members of western governments that seek to influence or change the life ways of people in other regions of the world.

Explores capitalism as a cultural phenomenon rather than an economic philosophy.
http://www.westelcom.com/users/bobbieg

Extractions: If we were to look up the word culture in a dictionary, we would be confronted by such terms as customary belief, social norm, shared attitudes, values, goals and practices: the commonalities by which societies live and function. There are many factors which contribute to this definition of culture: religious beliefs, gender roles, physical environment and others. Each plays a specific role in society. There is another factor which perhaps contributes more to today's cultures than any other: capitalism. Capitalism is often thought of as a political or economic system, but it is more than either of these. Capitalism pervades every aspect of the culture in countries which have adopted it as a way of life and has greatly affected cultures which have not adopted it. Capitalism affects every aspect of our lives, from the way our children are born to the way our dead are laid to rest. It affects how we think, what we wear, what we eat, where we live, what we buy and how we buy it. There is no part of our lives which is not in some way affected by capitalism.
Cultural Islands
An essay by Thomas Hylland Eriksen that critically examines the metaphors which have underlied anthropological theory and research.
http://folk.uio.no/geirthe/Culturalislands.html

Extractions: A transformation of the island metaphor along the lines suggested could be seen as an indicator of a more pervasive shift in the dominant anthropological mode of reasoning. This shift, which by now seems definite although a new "paradigm" has yet to appear, has changed the discipline's emphasis from positivist search for truth to less ambitious interpretations of ambiguous worlds; from structure to process, from causality to intersubjectivity, from stable social units to fluctuating systems of signification - and, in a certain sense, from explanation to understanding. The metaphor of insularity, usually implicit in anthropological research and theory, can be used to summarise these fundamental issues. The problem to be addressed here can thus be stated as follows. In which sense can cultural phenomena and human societies meaningfully be said to be discrete, that is to say autonomous, bounded and thus distinctive from each other; and conversely, to what extent is the entire cultural production of humanity woven together in a seamless, continuous pattern of communication and exchange? The issue is of great importance to contemporary social anthropology, and it cannot be answered in a straightforward way. The question may nevertheless be fruitfully approached through a reflection over mechanisms of social and cultural isolation, that is what we may provisionally call cultural island phenomena.
