Interpreting Cultures Minor
|
|
The minor in interpreting cultures examines human behavior and institutions, material artifacts, thought, feeling, and expression as complementary and contradictory strands in a web of culture. Critical reflexivity is emphasized, and students are encouraged to question the nature and meaning of cultures. This focus on the interpretive process shifts attention away from static and monolithic conceptions of culture and toward the ways in which cultures are individually and socially constructed.
