This document discusses the importance of preserving artistic and historic works to understand past societies. It provides examples of prehistoric cave paintings that have helped historians understand early human migrations and gender roles. It also describes programs like the Historic Curatorship Program that preserve historic homes in the US by having residents renovate them. Additionally, it discusses the theft and destruction of cultural artifacts through war and conflicts, using examples like the looting of Iraqi museums and Taliban destruction of Buddhist statues. The document argues that studying artistic works is crucial for understanding the values, beliefs, and lived experiences of past human societies.
The present essay review, though shorter than the piece I am accustomed to write, focuses on the commonalities between tourism and archaeology. At acloser look, we aretaught tourism is a commercial activity, sometimes hedonist or naïve that entertains lay people. Rather, archaeology signals to a serious academic discipline, enrooted in the quest for truth. Nonetheless, archaeology and tourism shares the similarly-minded cultural values, the reconstruction of
past. Our thesis rests on the idea that the tourist gaze searches for the ideological message to remind its superiority over other cultures or peripheral voices. In addition, it is important to note that tourists and archaeologists need from the same degree of exceptionality and novelty to validate their status to others.
Design Thesis - Strengthening Community Through the Post-Industrial LandscapeMatthew Greene
This document discusses post-industrial landscapes and abandoned industrial sites. It explores how these derelict landscapes came to be so prominent across urban areas after World War II due to physical and functional obsolescence. The document examines different views on how to manage post-industrial landscapes, such as brownfield redevelopment and industrial archeology. It argues that these landscapes are significant remnants of industrial heritage that provide lessons from history and incentives for restoration. The goal is to understand how the unique spatial, architectural, and cultural qualities of abandoned industrial sites can be reclaimed into vibrant social spaces.
The document discusses post-colonial perspectives on race and representation in media. It addresses how colonization led to racialization and stereotyping of non-white groups. Even today, media commonly portrays racial and ethnic minorities in marginalizing, oversimplified, or problematic ways. For example, news media often represents black people through damaging stereotypes rather than addressing socioeconomic factors. Entertainment media also frequently relies on ethnic caricatures and offers only minimal, stereotypical representations of groups.
This document provides an overview of the origins and key developments of early civilization in the Middle East around 4000 BC. It notes that while agriculture had taken hold earlier, more time was needed for populations to grow sufficiently to support specialization and surplus production. By 4000 BC, widespread agriculture across the region along with new inventions and social organizations came together to provide the necessary conditions for civilization to emerge, centered initially in localized areas but pulling an expanding region into their economic orbit. Key factors that enabled this transition included improved agricultural productivity and the formation of regional population centers.
The document discusses recent trends in anthropology, focusing on three main challenges: who anthropologists are, evolving theoretical frameworks, and understanding a changing world. It analyzes trends in American anthropology, noting influential scholars and shifting influences from other disciplines. Key areas of study include globalization, identity, politics, and local experiences. Overall, anthropology is moving from describing isolated cultures to understanding dynamic cultural processes and local perspectives on global issues.

This document discusses the concept of hybrid cultures and how they have formed from the mixing of different cultures. It provides examples of how Pakistani culture is a hybrid of Indian, Turkish, Iranian, and European influences seen in food, clothing, music, and cultural exchange programs. It also examines how urbanization and technology have contributed to increased cultural hybridization and the breakdown of traditional divisions between high and low cultural forms. Museums and collections played a role in separating cultural goods into hierarchical groups, but new technologies now allow mixing of different cultural materials in personal collections at home.
This document summarizes the key topics covered in the final lecture of an anthropology course, including challenges facing anthropology today, the development of world anthropologies, and reflections on the field. It discusses how anthropologists have become more diverse in background and how theory has evolved from a focus on race to culture to discourse and power. It also addresses trends in American anthropology toward greater internationalization and the development of diverse national anthropological traditions.
The document summarizes the work and ideas of Néstor García Canclini, an Argentine academic known for theorizing the concept of "hybridity." Some key points:
- García Canclini got his PhD from University of Paris X and currently works in Mexico City, directing urban culture studies.
- His books include "Hybrid Cultures" and "Consumers and Citizens," which discuss how mass media have contributed to a reshaping of Latin American cultures rather than erasing local forms of expression.
- He believes cultures are becoming "hybrid" through a mixing of local traditions and global influences, and sees this as contributing to understanding failures in certain political models based on modern notions of autonomy
The Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta connects the American Civil Rights Movement to today's global human rights movements through three galleries and a rotating exhibition space. The Center was designed by architects Phil Freelon and HOK and features exhibitions curated by George C. Wolfe and Jill Savitt and designed by The Rockwell Group. It was built through a joint venture between construction companies H.J. Russell, C.D. Moody Construction, and Holder Construction.
This lecture discusses the "crisis of representation" in anthropology and ethnography. It explores how anthropologists have traditionally represented other cultures and the critiques of these representations as being androcentric, eurocentric, or supportive of colonial ideologies. It examines ongoing debates around who has the power to represent whom and the effects of different representations. The lecture argues anthropology must be practiced more reflexively and considers how representation issues relate to gender, ethnicity, and power dynamics.
This document provides an overview of the key concepts in diaspora literature. It begins by defining diaspora as the displacement of a community into a new geographical and cultural region. It then discusses two main moves in diasporic writing: the spatial move involving de-territorialization and re-territorialization, and the temporal move of looking back to the past and forward to the future. Several diasporic authors and their works are listed. The features of diasporic culture include themes of memory, alienation in the new society, and connection to the homeland. Three overarching themes are identified: nostalgia and imaginary homelands, hybrid identities, and globalization. Examples from authors Margaret Atwood
This document summarizes the activities of the Etniko Bandido Infoshop from the Philippines during a three month sojourn in Indonesia and Malaysia. It describes their work teaching English in Bali, reconnecting with farmer communities in Indonesia, and visiting an autonomous space in Kuala Lumpur during protests. It also discusses various autonomous activist spaces and networks in Southeast Asia working on issues like agrarian struggles, arts initiatives, and women's rights.
The document discusses cultural heritage and cultural appropriation in the context of Philippine cultural policies. It defines cultural heritage as property passed down through generations that is protected as cultural property, whether natural or man-made, tangible or intangible. Cultural appropriation is defined as the unacknowledged or inappropriate adoption of customs, practices, or ideas of one culture by members of another, dominant culture. The document outlines several Philippine laws and policies that aim to protect cultural heritage and property, foster cultural diversity, and prevent inappropriate cultural appropriation. It emphasizes the importance of cultural education and sensitivity in the use and sharing of cultural elements.
Here I am sharing my presentation of paper no-11 The Post colonial Literature. Topic of my presentation is Applay Postcolonialism in Movie. It is submited to department of english Dr. Dilip Barad
Culture refers to the shared traditions, values, and ways of life that unite a group of people. It includes tangible aspects like language, religion, and material goods as well as intangible aspects like beliefs and norms. A key component of culture is that it is learned and passed down between generations. While aspects of culture like language and technology can spread globally, cultures still vary widely between different societies and subgroups. Cultural elements also tend to change at different rates, sometimes causing disruptions, but cultures aim to maintain integration among their various aspects over time through processes like cultural diffusion and adaptation.
The document discusses several topics related to cultural diversity and biocultural diversity in the modern world, including acculturation, cultural imperialism, indigenous identity, and the impact of globalization. It provides examples of how contact between Western and non-Western groups has influenced cultures through processes like Westernization, Sinicization, and Hinduization. The document also addresses postmodernity, indigenous rights, conservation of biodiversity, and the need for international cooperation to protect biological and cultural diversity.

1) The document discusses how various cultures migrated and their impacts. Africans who were brought to the US as slaves in the 1830s brought many traditions from West and Central Africa, including food dishes, music, language, and more.
2) It also examines the migrations and impacts of Chinese, Indian, and European cultures. The Europeans largely dominated global trade and cultural exchanges through military conquest and religion.
3) Cultural exchanges between groups led to syncretism, where elements of different cultures blended together and new traditions emerged. This integration of cultures continues to influence societies today.
As what is at stake is the survival of a nation whose problems could not solve within a nation framework, this paper attempts to put forward a new paradigm on the challenges and dilemmas facing the midnimo (unity). It will examine what caused the ‘sacral’ Somali concept of midnimo (unity) to disappoint the Somalis. This assessment leads the analysis to look at the courses which reversed midnimo and to derail the country from its original undertakings.

The first Latimer Lounge event focused on the creative community and featured poetry performances, in keeping with Latimer's identity
This document discusses key concepts related to culture. It defines culture and discusses how culture determines our worldview. It also defines society and explains how society provides the context for culture. Only humans depend primarily on culture rather than instincts for survival. Culture includes symbols, language, values and beliefs, norms, and material objects. Language plays a key role in cultural transmission between generations. Values and norms vary across cultures and societies approach cultural diversity in different ways, such as assimilation or multiculturalism. Cultures are always changing through inventions, discoveries, and diffusion between societies.

Surgery involves manually treating diseases and injuries of the human body. The origin of the word surgery comes from ancient Greek meaning "hand work." Evidence of early surgical practices dates back to 4600 BC in ancient Babylon, Egypt, and India. Throughout history, surgery advanced due to contributions from Arabic, Italian, French, and other cultures. In the 19th century, developments like anesthesia and antiseptic techniques made surgery safer and less painful. When assessing a patient, doctors gather a thorough history, examining presenting symptoms, past medical history, habits, and family history to inform diagnosis and treatment. The key is to actively listen to the patient without interruption and confirm the accuracy of the information obtained.

Here are the key points about the 1960s counterculture movement and politics:
- The Vietnam War was hugely unpopular among the counterculture, who engaged in large protests against what they saw as an unjust war. The graphic images of violence and death fueled anti-war sentiment.
- The Cold War intensified distrust in government as the US aggressively opposed communism around the world. This fed the counterculture's skepticism of authority and their anti-establishment views.
- Counterculture activists engaged in protests against both the Vietnam War and Cold War policies. They saw these as examples of government overreach and aggression abroad.
- Politically, the counterculture advocated for peace, love and anti-

World history has both pros and cons as an area of study. It allows historians to examine history on a global scale, analyzing connections and interdependencies between civilizations, cultures, and states. This provides insights into how social, political, and economic exchanges have impacted humanity globally. However, it also must contend with the challenges of conveying the evolution and spread of ideologies, religions, and cultures in a way that acknowledges global conflicts and differences in perspective. Overall, world history aims to foster a broader understanding of history through a worldwide lens.
2. Introduction
Sociology is meant to be the study of
development, structure, and functioning of
human societies. In order to study patterns
of society, it is important to explore and
embrace our past. Throughout our
material, we have learned about patterns,
structures, and developments come in many
forms. We have read about “The
Untouchables;” people who are part of a
caste system in India. A system created
many centuries ago. We have watched a
video on “Honor Killings;” a cultural
cleansing from a centuries old custom. We
have learned about prejudice and racial
hatred. We learned the meaning of
xenophobia; a fear of the customs and
culture of people who are different from
ourselves.
So besides Sociology, what would be a
common thread between these different
subjects? To me, that thread is history,
society, and culture; the thread creates a
blanket that becomes Sociology.
As we know, not everyone is literate nor has
the world always used a form of writing to
convey societal structures. How did mankind
convey anything without using words? Art.
This is where I connect Sociology with the
unspoken world of societies. Whether it’s
prehistoric or modern, on canvas or cave, it
has a direct bearing on our past societies; how
humans cope, form groups, live and die,
communicate, convey ideas and beliefs, and
how we develop and change. If it not for the
collective efforts of many professions, some
important treasures of past society would be
torn down and replaced with something new.
It is my hope that by “teaching you
something,” I can give a glimpse into
individual agency and group expression
through the eyes of art. With this project, I
will focus on the recovery of antiquities,
restoration projects in the States, and
interesting prehistoric finds that have had an
impact on our understanding of how the
first societies developed.
3. Prehistoric Finds
With the discovery of prehistoric art Sociologists, Scientists, (Art) Historians, and researchers
have been able to follow migration patterns and formations of early societies, seeing when
changes took place. The Bradshaw Foundation is one privately funded non-profit organization
(BradshawFND, 2012) that has taken an interest in all aspects of prehistoric rock art. The web
site states that, “its main areas of focus are archaeology, anthropology, and genetic research, and
its primary objective is to discover, document and preserve ancient rock art around the world,
and promote the study of early mankind’s artistic achievements” (BradhsawFND, 2012). Why
is this important? Did you know that early man (Paleolithic through Neolithic Eras) revered
women as the most important instrument in sustaining life? These early eras were the
precursors’ to the dramatic shift in how societies took shape as humans graduated into the
Bronze Age. Preserving early rock art enables us to view how humanity shifted from the
unpredictable world of migratory lifestyles into an established self-sustaining community.
Cultures, norms, and customs of mankind were born during these periods.

5. Preservation
Preservation does not always involve a museum-quality piece or an ancient archaeological dig
in a far off country. It’s happening right here in the United States. A local form of
restoration and preservation is called the Historic/Resident Curatorship Program and it is
being implemented all over the U.S. The focus of this program is preservation, renovation,
and upkeep of state owned historic homes. These are homes that often sit in state parks and
need extensive repairs. States cannot afford to rehab the homes and surrounding area, so
they qualify tenants to do the work for them, rent-free for an assigned number of years.
There are various homes available for this program, depending on the state, and each one is
in a various state of disrepair. People are qualified based on their ability to renovate,
experience with repairs, and financial situation; in other words this isn’t a project for the
faint of heart, financially strapped, or those who don’t know how to swing a hammer. The
Curatorship Programs have other requirements for tenants: a long-term lease (25 years is
standard with option to renew), a commitment to make the home available to the public a
certain number of days each year (it is a state owned park property, after all), a detailed
renovation plan and budget, and approval from the state historic board. This can be a win-
win situation for historic preservation. A tenant may invest as much as $150,000 into a
historic home, restoring the original charm, while living on beautiful scenic land sometimes
as large as 200 acres. The cash-strapped states reap the benefits from having homes
renovated and not being in charge of a museum that will cost taxpayers more money.
9. Recovery & Destruction of
Antiquities
“It’s like stealing history” (FBI, 2012).
That’s a quote on the web site of ACT (Art Crime Team); a branch of the FBI. As a matter of
fact, our FBI works internationally with other divisions at Interpol, Scotland Yard, Homeland
Security Investigations, the International Council of Museums, the United Nations
Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as well as dozens of other
agencies. Thefts are logged into an international data base where they are kept until recovery.
Throughout history, mankind has taken upon themselves to be the most destructive force
against preserving societies cultures and treasures. This type of destruction doesn’t just
happen because of greed; it happens as a result of vengeance and war. It is an ancient practice
to pillage, plunder, and destroy during war; history is riddled with proof. Every race, every
religion, and every continent has been affected by destructive events such as this. World War I
& II, ancient Rome and Greece, the ebb and flow of Egyptian history gives story upon story of
culture lost. It is here that we see yet another devastation; the sacking of the Iraq National
Museum. With our American troops deeply entrenched in the Middle East, it is easy for most
to ignore another loss being felt in what is called The Cradle of Civilization.

10. Theft isn’t always the work of a brazen thief from a
Hollywood movie. The most notorious thief was
none other than Adolf Hitler. His Nazi troops
helped themselves to every Jewish owned piece of
artwork, cataloging each piece.

12. What if someone erased all existence of the Civil Rights movement? What would happen
if the Industrial Revolution never happened? Or the Italian Renaissance? What if
the Egyptians didn’t destroy every kingdom they conquered? Or the Romans and
Greeks hadn’t fought?
What if there was no art from history at all?
In order to better understand our future, we need to study our past societies.
Through art we learn about how earlier societies:
• …Mated and rituals.
• …What they loved and lost.
• …What they thought was beautiful and what they thought was not.
• …Their faiths and superstitions.
• …Changes in perceptions and environments.
• …What was important and what gave them joy.
In other words: what was important to societies and mankind.
