Although they can be claimed as "niche concepts" (appropriate concepts) in sociology and anthropology, these terms are so malleable that other disciplines (such as political science, psychology, history, and economics) have been quite successful in expanding their respective frontiers using them as tools.  CULTURE AND SOCIETY Niche and Fugitive Concepts In this context, culture and society become "fugitive concepts" (runaway concepts) as their explanatory features move beyond the ambits of their original disciplines.  ANTHROPOLOGY - came from two Greek words anthropos and logos; studies humans and the culture where they were born and actively belong. - This discipline defined culture as a shared set of explicit and implicit ideas, values, roles and behaviors that allow a social group to perpetuate and operate  ANTHROPOLOGY - This discipline is considered the father of all social and behavioral sciences while Franz Boas is considered the Father of American Anthropology.  IMPORTANT PERSONALITIES Ruth Benedict Margaret Alfred Kroeber & Mead - a specialist in - became William Henry anthropology and folklore “controversial” for - the championing and authored Patterns of intensively studying the of indigenous rights Culture. sexual practices among like traditional Bronisław native populations cultural Malinowski which resulted in a preservation and - founding father of relatively new liberal ancestral domain of ethnography or view on sex and sexual American Indians. ethnographic practices in the US. approach WHEN DID IT BEGUN?

Its role is to rule society by stipulating and transmitting the basic laws that will supervise the freedom of its citizens. POLITICAL SCIENCE Associated with how power is gained and employed to develop authority and influence social affairs and can also be used to promulgate guiding rules to govern the state. As an art, politics can shed on the style, character, behavior, preference, language and culture.

In your own point of view, among the aforementioned disciplines, which of those three is the most complex? 2. Can you already define each discipline appropriately? 3. How about providing examples in each discipline?  LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION! Mechanics: 1.The class will be divided into four groups. 2. Each group will provide a concept or sample situation incorporating their learnings of the different disciplines (sociology, anthropology, and political science) by performing a five- minute role play.  LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION! 3. After the role-play, each group will provide their own reflection on how important these disciplines are to tackle in this generation. 4. In giving the reflection, each group will choose their group representative who will share the insights. 5. It doesn’t mean that the group representative will be the one to share the reflection he will only be the one to give a reflection. All members should contribute and participate. LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION!
