    Sociology and anthropology both study human society and culture, but from different perspectives. Sociology is the scientific study of society and social interaction, while anthropology studies humans as social beings, their origins and development, and their cultures. Culture refers to the learned behaviors, beliefs, attitudes, and norms that are shared by a group, including language, religion, technology, styles of dress, ways of living together, and artistic expressions. Culture profoundly shapes how individuals think, act and feel. It is acquired during the process of socialization as one grows up and interacts within a group.

    SOCIETY & CULTURE

    FROM THE
    PERSPECTIVES OF
    ANTHROPOLOGY &
    SOCIOLOGY
    SOCIOLOGY
    • It is the science that
    deals with the study of
    society and the social
    interactions taking place
    therein.
    •Latin words
    “socius”
    (companion) and
    “ logos” (study)
    •Thus , sociology is
    the study of
    association, group,
    society, & social
    interaction.
    •Sociology leans
    on
    contemporary
    social life
    ANTHROPOLOGY
    • Anthropology is focused
    on man as an animal & as
    living in society, his origin
    & development,
    distribution, social habits
    & culture.
    IN
    ANTHROPOLOGY,
    CULTURE MEANS
    IT INCLUDES ALL THINGS INDIVIDUALS
    LEARN WHILE GROWING UP AMONG
    PARTICULAR GROUP: ATTITUDES,
    STANDARDS OF MORALITY, RULES OF
    ETIQUETTE, PERCEPTIONS OF REALITY,
    LANGUAGE, NOTIONS ABOUT THE
    PROPER WAY OF LIFE, BELIEFS ABOUT
    HOW FEMALES AND MALES SHOULD
    INTERACT, IDEAS ABOUT HOW THE
    WORLD WORKS AND SO FORTH.
    • WE ARE HARDLY EVEN
    AWARE THAT WE HAVE
    LEARNED IT OR THAT
    NOT EVERYONE IN THE
    WORLD HAS LEARNED
    IT.
    • THERE IS NO ELITE OR
    POPULAR CULTURE.
    • THERE IS NO BETTER
    OR WORSE CULTURE.
    CULTURE IS…
    • IS LEARNED FROM OTHER PEOPLE
    WHILE GROWING UP IN A
    PARTICULAR SOCIETY OR GROUP;
    • IS WIDELY SHARED BY THE
    MEMBERS OF THAT SOCIETY OR
    GROUP;
    • SO PROFOUNDLY AFFECTS THE
    THOUGHTS, ACTIONS, & FEELINGS OF
    PEOPLE IN THAT GROUP THAT
    ANTHROPOLOGISTS SAY, “ INDIVIDUALS
    ARE A PRODUCT OF THEIR CULTURE” &
    “LEARNING A CULTURE IS AN ESSENTIAL
    PART OF HUMAN DEVELOPMENT” AND;
    • IN LARGE PART ACCOUNTS FOR THE
    DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GROUPS OF
    PEOPLE IN HOW THEY ACT, THINK, &
    FEEL.
    IN SOCIOLOGY,
    • CULTURE IS THE PERSPECTIVE
    PEOPLE COME TO SHARE AS THEY
    INTERACT. IT INCLUDES EVERYTHING
    TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE THAT
    PEOPLE CREATE, ACQUIRE FROM
    OTHER SOCIETIES AND TRANSMIT TO
    SUBSEQUENT GENERATIONS.
    • CULTURE COMPRISES
    THINGS THAT PEOPLE
    HAVE, THE THINGS THAT
    THEY DO AND WHAT
    THEY THINK.
    • SOCIETY IS A GROUP OF
    PEOPLE LIVING IN A GIVEN
    TERRITORY WHO SHARE A
    CULTURE AND WHO
    INTERACT WITH PEOPLE
    OF THAT TERRITORY MORE
    THAN WITH PEOPLE OF
    OTHER ERRITORIES.

    CULTURE
