Why anthropology?

Well in the first place I must confess that I choosed study anthropology because my brother everytime told me about this carreer. He studied laws in the University La República and after the bankruptcy of this Universitiy his finished the career in University La Central, but the area and courses of social anthropology were the most intersting according to him. My brother told me about the indian studies and the importance of the multiculturalism, together with the filosofic bases of this discipline.

When I started to find more information about the social anthropology in the school, I compared this option with others careers such as laws or history, but finally I decided for the reason of that I wanted understand the various forms of relationship of the people on different contexts, even in our society, not only in the indigenous society. I think that with this and the understand of why operates the culture could be a factor for progress towards a better society. On the other hand I saw that laws and history have a vision more superficial of the humans proccess and their focus in the description and memorise instead of the understanding.
