Cultural anthropology is a branch of anthropology that studies the cultural variations among humans. It focuses on understanding the beliefs, practices, and social structures of different societies. Cultural anthropologists often conduct fieldwork, immersing themselves in communities to observe and participate in daily life, which helps them gather insights about cultural norms and values. This discipline examines various aspects of culture, including language, religion, art, and family systems. By analyzing these elements, cultural anthropologists aim to understand how culture shapes human behavior and social interactions. Their work contributes to broader discussions about diversity, identity, and globalization.
