NATURE, GOALS, AND PERSPECTIVES OF ANTHROPOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY,

AND POLITICAL SCIENCE
BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS
Anthropology according to Banks, William E. (2020) is the study of humans, their

close relatives, and their cultural environment. This includes matters about human
ancestry, economic process, social change, and history of the world. It is about how
various people can be, and it tries to go through in what sense that all humans have
similarities. It is the study of human race including our pre-historic origin and
contemporary human diversity. Strauss (1983) explained that anthropology tries to
grasp its object through its most diverse manifestations’. In addition, Czarina Saloma,
et. al., elaborated that Anthropology came from the Greek word-anthropos which means
‘human’ and logos means ‘reason’- it means ‘reason about humans’ or ‘knowledge
about humans’. It is a comparative study of cultural and social life.
The second concept is Sociology. Steven Loyal (2003) define it as the study of
human social life, groups, and society. It seeks to give a deeper assessment of
individual and group behavior, including social events. It gathers social inputs which
composed of frequent forms and manners such as viewpoints, consolidated values, and
norms of social institutions which form part of social array.
The third one is Political Science. According to the Department of Social Sciences
and Philosophy, Political science is a classical discipline that deals with the study of
political phenomena. Its goal is to deepen human understanding of the forms and nature
of political action and to develop theoretical tools for interpreting politically meaningful
phenomena. It focuses on fundamental values of equality, freedom, and justice and its
process linked with the dynamics of conflict, resolution, and cooperation.
