Offizielle Kursbeschreibung: In this course, we will discuss the intersections of these two disciplines. Every week will revolve around a new question, for example: What is culture? What is gender? What is ritual? What is affect? By addressing these questions, we will go through the development of anthropological theory and many of the trends in contemporary philosophy. We will talk about everything from Functionalism to Post-Structuralism, from Feminism to Actor-Network Theory. Along the way, we will also look at the terms that show up in anthropological debates all the time and usually lack any explanation: “ontology”, “epistemology”, “positivism”, “empiricism”, “phenomenology”, and all of the paradigms and turns you can think of.
