From that link:
Quote:
But that means all cultures. And actually, anthropology is where many people first came up with the false notion of "cultural relativism". But nobody in anthropology ever suggested such a thing. The only thing that anthropology ever fomented was the idea that all cultures deserve an objective observer before judging culture. It suggested that we tend to judge other culture through our own culture's eyes, even scientifically and this got in the way of science. But anthropology always insisted that as scientists, anthropology should always strive to come to moral conclusions and that would most certainly include judging culture as being superior or inferior to other cultures.

Some years ago I knew some one who had to take Asian studies in HS. I have no idea what was taught in the class but there were a good many Asians in the school.
I fail to see why ethnic studies benefit anyone. How do they choose some and ignore others. The kids need more of the 3 Rs. |
