Discuss the role of physical, social and archaeological anthropology in studying tourism.

Vivek Kumar 4th Dec, 2021

Hi aspirant, The anthropology of tourism offers an insight into the socio-cultural dimensions of tourism, such as the type of cultures and societies. International tourists in the second half of the twentieth century started to visit those locations in which many anthropologists had carried out their fieldwork. The interaction between tourists and local people provided a new source of anthropological enquiry.

Therefore, traditionally in tourism studies, anthropology tended to deal with the impacts of tourism on the lifestyles, traditions and cultures of local people, residents or ‘hosts’.

Thank You.

anthropology vs sociology which is best for begginers in upsc optional?

mrinalini048 14th Sep, 2021

Hello Kesavan!

Both Anthropology and Sociology are two of the particularly popular elective courses. When it comes to sociology, it has more number of takers as compared to Anthropology. More applicants appear to believe that sociology is preferable optional. The curriculum is somewhat shorter and is easy to comprehend. It is more famous among humanities grads since it contains less science than anthropology. It also aids in writing essays.

Anthropology,on the other hand is a preferable option for science students, particularly those with a background in biology. Students with science background find it more scoring. Writing abilities aren't as crucial in anthropology as they are in sociology.

Before selecting the optional,make sure to go through the syllabus and then opt considering the subject you are more comfortable in.

All the best!

Discuss the relationship between anthropology and tourism

Khushi Goyal 2nd Sep, 2021

Dear Student,

The term anthropology is derived from two Greek words “Anthropos” meaning (Hu)man and ‘Logos’ for ‘study or science’.

It seeks to understand the lives of human beings in time and space. Time basically reflects the geological time scale that involves the study of human evolution, growth and variation whereas space deals with the ecological and environmental relationship of human populations that inhabits the various places on earth.

Anthropology comprises the study of the past cultures and how the present culture is flourishing. It is the study of human beings in totality unlike other subjects where only a particular aspect of human being is taken into account like history deals with what happened in the past while psychology studies the human mind etc.

Anthropology as an academic discipline emerged at the turn of the twentieth century. With four main branches

a. Physical or Biological anthropology,

b. Social and Cultural anthropology,

c. Archaeological anthropology and

d. Linguistic anthropology,

the subject matter looks at both the scientific and humanistic perspectives, it takes into account a holistic approach to study humankind.

The physical/ biological anthropologists are interested in understanding the origin, evolution, variation and development of human species. The curiosity to know why there is variations in skin, eye, hair colour etc., leads them to enquire about the existence of human variation and to try and find scientific explanations behind such variations.

Tourism has a long history and is widespread in the cultures of humankind. It is an important social fact in the life of contemporary people. It is one of the major industries of the world and a developmental tool for many third world countries.

Tourism= Leisure time+ discretionary income+ positive local sanctions.

Happy Learning!

Best optional for upsc? Economics vs Anthropology which is better? Economics vs Anthropology better option of scope?

Karamvir Singh 7th Jul, 2021

Hey,

There is no as such best optional subject for UPSC CSE. Even if we look at the success rate of candidates based on their optional subjects, then, there is not much difference. Optional subjects forms a core of the UPSC exam and can take your name into the final list or can ruin your result. So, apart from searching for best optional, choose the subject in which you have more strength of concepts and knowledge. The optional subject is prove to be best only when you can score excellent marks in it. So, discover the topics of the syllabus and weigh where you can do more good better than the other optional subject for which you are thinking.
