Culture- the characteristics and knowledge of a particular group of people, encompassing

language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts.
Society - an organized group of persons associated together for religious, benevolent, cultural,
scientific, political, patriotic, or other purposes.

Politics - the activities associated with the governance of a country or other area, especially the
debate or conflict among individuals or parties having or hoping to achieve power.

Anthropology Politics

Sociology

Anthropology
 Anthropology is the study of what makes us human.
Sociology
 SOCIOLOGY is the study of social life, social change, and the social causes and
consequences of human behavior.
Politics
 Is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms
of power relations between individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status

Anthropology and politics

 Political science appears to be a branch of anthropology.
 Politics is after all the reflection of society
Anthropology and sociology
 Sociologists have to depend upon anthropologists to understand the present-day social
phenomena from our knowledge of the past which is often provided by anthropology
Sociology and Politics
 Sociology depends very much on politics in every respect. The state and governments
make laws for the welfare of the society; the government removes social evils such as
poverty, unemployment, dowry and so on from the society.

representing
women's work in
the First World
War as the chair of
the Women's Work
Sub-Committee of
the newly
established Imperial
War Museum.[12]

 She was the
curator of the
Women's Work
Section of the
Imperial War
Museum, and was
named Honorary
Secretary of the
Women's
Committee between
1917-1920
Alison In 1989, Spedding
Spedding moved
to Bolivia and
lectured at San
Andres
University in La
Paz. While there she
published the
academic
work Wachu
Wachu. Cultivo de
coca e identidad en
los Yungas de la
Paz (1994) and
Kausachun-Coca
(2004). She is the
author of three
novels in
Spanish: Manuel y
Fortunato. Una
picaresca
 andina (1997), El
viento de la
cordillera (2001),
and the sci-fi,
anarcho-feminist
novel De cuando en
cuando
Saturnina (2004).
She is also the
author of a book of
short stories, El
tiempo, la distancia,
otros
amantes (1994) and
the play Un gato en
el tejar, the latter
published under the
pseudonym Alicia
Céspedes Ballet. In
Bolivia she became
an outspoken critic
of the government's
policy of cracking
down on
peasant coca farmer
s. In May 1998 her
La Paz flat was
raided and she was
arrested on drugs
charges, and
sentenced to ten
years in prison.
Academics widely
considered the arrest
was politically
motivated and
campaigned for her
release. She was
released in 2000 on
payment of a surety
Margaret Archer studied at
Archer the University of London,
graduating BSc in 1964
and PhD in 1967 with a
thesis on The Educational
Aspirations of English
 Working Class Parents.
She was a lecturer at
the University of
Reading from 1966 to
1973.
She is one of the most
influential theorists in
the critical
realist tradition. At the
12th World Congress of
Sociology, she was
elected as the first female
President and the 11th
president of
the International
Sociological
Association (1986–1990),
[3]
 is a founding member
of both the Pontifical
Academy of Social
Sciences and the
Academy of Learned
Societies in the Social
Sciences. She is a trustee
of the Centre for Critical
Realism.
She has supervised some
PhD students, some of
whom have gone on to
contribute towards the
substantive development
of critical realism in the
social sciences, including
Robert Willmott, author
of Education Policy and
Realist Social Theory,
[4]
 Sean Creaven, author
of Marxism and Realism,
[5]
 and Justin Cruickshank,
author of Realism and

Necla Similar to Ayaan Hirsi
Kelek Ali, Dutch politician
of Somali origin, or the
Egyptian
feminist, Sérénade
Chafik, Kelek opposes the
repression of women
in Islam. She is strongly
criticized by Islamic
organizations for this,
especially since she is
convinced that there is
very little compatibility
between Western and
Islamic ideals.
The Turkish press,
especially, attacks Kelek
again and again:
Feminists like
Kelek, Seyran Ateş, Sonja
Fatma Bläser, and Serap
Çileli are accused of
"exaggeration". Most
women are supposedly
not exposed to male
control, and live in
freedom. Until the middle
of 2005, this was also the
editorial guideline of the
liberal-conservative daily
paper, Hürriyet, which is
very influential among
the Turkish people living
in Germany: According to
a study of
the Gesellschaft für
Konsumforschung (Societ
y for Consumer Research,
GfK) from 2002, forty
percent of them had read
this paper in the past two
weeks. On May 22, 2005,
"Hürriyet" started a
Germany-wide campaign
"against domestic
violence". The discussion
events in the large
German cities got a large
response, although the
feminists who had
 previously been attacked
refused to participate.
Kelek was a member of
the scientific advisory
council of the Giordano
Bruno Stiftung, a
"foundation for the
support of evolutionary
humanism", until May 16,
2007

Jodi Dean Emphasizing the use

of Leninism, psychoanalysis,
and
certain postmodernist theories,
Dean has made contributions
to political theory, media
studies and third-wave
feminism, most notably with
her theory of communicative
capitalism—the online merging
of democracy and capitalism int
o a single neoliberal formation
that subverts the democratic
impulses of the masses by
valuing emotional expression
over logical discourse.[6] She
has spoken and lectured in
Austria, Belgium, Canada,
Croatia, the Czech Republic,
Denmark, Ecuador, England,
Germany, Hungary, Ireland,
Italy, the Netherlands, Norway,
Peru, Turkey, the United States,
and Wales. She was formerly
co-editor of the political theory
journal Theory & Event.
