Question 1:
What is the relationship between gender, sexuality, and power? How has culture imposed inequality through violent ideological systems such as patriarchy, sexism, and homophobia?
Question 2:
How has globalization affected kinship and marriage? Since cross-cultural norms and values regarding these two cultural systems vary widely, consider how anthropologists study the ways in which families are produced and maintained in light of global economic and social change.
Question 3:
As a cultural system, what is religion and how have various social theorists interpreted the role religion has in the groups that embrace it?
Question 4:
Explain biomedicine and ethnomedicine. What do they have in common and how are they different from one another? How are both systems of knowledge surrounding care and healing informed by cultural factors? Provide examples and details from the text to support your answer.
