Description:
This volume addresses the search for alternative paradigms in anthropology, featuring contributions from distinguished scholars from India, Kenya, Korea, Venezuela, Mexico, and the USA. It challenges materialistic science-based anthropology, questioning whether Western secular science alone can define human nature and culture.
Key questions explored in this book include:
- Are there alternative ways of understanding human existence beyond modern scientific frameworks?
- Can different cultures be fully understood from an external perspective?
- Must anthropology strictly follow Darwinian, Tylorian, Durkheimian, or Malinowskian traditions?
The authors engage with concepts such as sacred science, cosmic anthropology, sonic anthropology, philosophical anthropology, and quantum anthropology to redefine traditional thought. This interdisciplinary work is an essential resource for scholars, researchers, and readers interested in a deeper exploration of human nature, cultural diversity, and new anthropological perspectives.
