THE ROLE OF
ANTHROPOLOGY
IN A GLOBALIZED WORLD
GLOBAL
INTEGRATION
• Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have
experienced dramatic changes in:
• how we live (i.e. more electricity, resources, and
nuclear toxins)
• means of transportation (i.e. increased use of fossil
fuels)
• distance between destinations (i.e. international and
space travel)
• These changes have a negative impact on the
environment
• Excessive pollution
• Resource degradation
• As such, these massive environmental changes
brought on by humans (since the Industrial
Revolution) has been defined as it’s own geologic
epoch called the Anthropocene
THE
ANTHROPOCENE
Anthropomorphic changes
are happening at an
expedited rate due to
globalization
The increased rate at which
humans destroy the
environment is possible
because of structural
violence
STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE
MILITARY POWER ECONOMIC POWER THE GLOBAL MEDIASCAPE
GLOBAL INTEGRATION
ECONOMIC POWER
• Large corporations monopolize on resources, and
means of distributing resources, which widen the
inequality gap
• Local markets collapse because disadvantaged groups
abandon local farming to export crops for cash
• Big corporations outsource goods and services to fuel
their own interests (and not those who supply
goods/services)
• Megacorporations are not regulated by international
policy, and are based in secrecy
GLOBAL INTEGRATION
MILITARY POWER
• World leaders in military power use money as an
instrument of coercion and intimidation
• Have the most nuclear weapons
• Have the highest budget
• Can manipulate the foreign political landscape
via invasion, armed intervention, or imposing
trade embargos
• Powerless groups have resorted to guerilla tactics,
insurgencies, and terrorism
• Military power destroys traditional culture, social
organization, and natural habitats
GLOBAL INTEGRATION
MEDIASCAPE
• The global mediascape is a tool for harnessing soft
power
• Influence public opinion and perception
• Take political action
• Advertise products
• Move capital
• Gain prestige
• Leaders in the global mediascape seek to dominate,
profit, and benefit from the transmission of
information
GLOBAL INTEGRATION
• Cultures make changes (adaptations) to goods
and services integrated from outside
• Language
• Type of resources
• Methods of production and use
• A transnational culture will be difficult to attain
(and maintain)
• Revitalization movements work to preserve
cultures
• Traditionalism focuses on returning to how life
used to be
GLOBAL CHALLENGES
OVERPOPULATION
• Increased population leads to a growth in the
scale of hunger/malnutrition and pollution
• Adequate nutrition is required to resist disease
MALNUTRITION
• Starvation/obesity caused by:
• Environmental calamities
• Warfare
• Collapse of local markets caused by foreign
imports
• Massive job cuts
• Growing poverty rates
• Raising cash crops for export
• Availability of processed foods
GLOBAL CHALLENGES
VIOLENCE
• Due to ethnocentrism, nationalism,
extremism, etc.
• Large numbers of people are
displaced
Multiculturalism – public policy for
managing cultural diversity in multi-ethnic
societies, officially stressing mutual resect
and tolerance for cultural differences within
a countries boarders
GLOBAL
CHALLENGES
• Approaching a transnational
culture
• Eliminates uniqueness
• Favors the dominant
• Requires rearranging
human relations
• Requires restructuring
cultural systems
ANTHROPOLOGY
Consider
Consider cultural factors and
views for a holistic
perspective to problem
solving
•Show how issues relate to each
other
Explain
Explain cultural features and
structures that may not be
obvious to experts in other
disciplines
Help
Help shed light on already
identified problems
•Human rights for indigenous
peoples
Identify
Identify patterns and trends
that may help foresee future
consequences

The Role of Anthropology in a Globalized World

  • 1. THE ROLE OF ANTHROPOLOGY IN A GLOBALIZED WORLD
  • 2. GLOBAL INTEGRATION • Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have experienced dramatic changes in: • how we live (i.e. more electricity, resources, and nuclear toxins) • means of transportation (i.e. increased use of fossil fuels) • distance between destinations (i.e. international and space travel) • These changes have a negative impact on the environment • Excessive pollution • Resource degradation • As such, these massive environmental changes brought on by humans (since the Industrial Revolution) has been defined as it’s own geologic epoch called the Anthropocene
  • 3. THE ANTHROPOCENE Anthropomorphic changes are happening at an expedited rate due to globalization The increased rate at which humans destroy the environment is possible because of structural violence
  • 4. STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE MILITARY POWER ECONOMIC POWER THE GLOBAL MEDIASCAPE
  • 5. GLOBAL INTEGRATION ECONOMIC POWER • Large corporations monopolize on resources, and means of distributing resources, which widen the inequality gap • Local markets collapse because disadvantaged groups abandon local farming to export crops for cash • Big corporations outsource goods and services to fuel their own interests (and not those who supply goods/services) • Megacorporations are not regulated by international policy, and are based in secrecy
  • 6. GLOBAL INTEGRATION MILITARY POWER • World leaders in military power use money as an instrument of coercion and intimidation • Have the most nuclear weapons • Have the highest budget • Can manipulate the foreign political landscape via invasion, armed intervention, or imposing trade embargos • Powerless groups have resorted to guerilla tactics, insurgencies, and terrorism • Military power destroys traditional culture, social organization, and natural habitats
  • 7. GLOBAL INTEGRATION MEDIASCAPE • The global mediascape is a tool for harnessing soft power • Influence public opinion and perception • Take political action • Advertise products • Move capital • Gain prestige • Leaders in the global mediascape seek to dominate, profit, and benefit from the transmission of information
  • 8. GLOBAL INTEGRATION • Cultures make changes (adaptations) to goods and services integrated from outside • Language • Type of resources • Methods of production and use • A transnational culture will be difficult to attain (and maintain) • Revitalization movements work to preserve cultures • Traditionalism focuses on returning to how life used to be
  • 9. GLOBAL CHALLENGES OVERPOPULATION • Increased population leads to a growth in the scale of hunger/malnutrition and pollution • Adequate nutrition is required to resist disease MALNUTRITION • Starvation/obesity caused by: • Environmental calamities • Warfare • Collapse of local markets caused by foreign imports • Massive job cuts • Growing poverty rates • Raising cash crops for export • Availability of processed foods
  • 10.
