Freud included a cornucopia of various themes in this book. The first of these is the recurring theme of the primal father and his psychological heritage. This is one of Freud’s most controversial cultural speculations. Freud proposes that human societies were

Traditional vs. Modern Society In today's world, the modern person is educated, independent and aggressive. To be a success, you must put forth your most competitive side and win it all. Nothing less will be permitted. This is the mindset of most business tycoons, stockbrokers and the like. However, on the other side of the globe, third world countries follow a more traditional lifestyle where the outlook on life is a little less malicious. In these countries, the society's idea of success is

1. Anthropology and the Study of Culture a. The field of anthropology that I find to be most interesting is anthropological linguistics. Personally, I believe this subdivision is so interesting because it is so diverse and covers so much ground on how our language and others have evolved over time.

More negative effects that technology brings into our society is Cyber-bullying caused by social media being so big. Kids especially are the most vulnerable to this which the perpetrators, anonymously or even posing as other people the victims trust, terrorize individuals in front of peers. These online attacks

A herd society is made up of people who are uncritical and mindlessly follow rules previously laid out for them. Members of this society try to act parallel with other members in their society. Nietzsche says this is the way humans are constructed. The average person is conditioned to conform and obey an authority figure. This is why herd culture must exist.

social behaviors such as tool making, and the ability to replicate an action. Tool making in primates shows an increase in both physical growth and mental capacity, and those attributes led this activity to become socially important in early human societies. Social behavior is a key aspect of human and primate growth. The ability to bond socially, for protection as well as growth, is a key factor in the successive evolution that occurred between primates, and early humans. One of these

managers rely on individual employees and teams for their expertise. Both managers and employees expect to be consulted and information is shared frequently. At the same time, communication is informal, direct and participative to a degree.
