104 cursos online de antropologia [GRATUITOS]

A antropologia nasceu no fim do século XIX e estuda as culturas humanas (suas diferenças e semelhanças). É comumente dividida entre biológica e cultural: enquanto a primeira investiga as diferenças biológicas entre os humanos, a segunda busca os diferentes padrões de cultura que eles têm.

A palavra antropologia deriva de duas palavras gregas: anthropos, que significa “homem” e logos, que significa “pensamento” ou “razão”.

De Bachofen a Levy-Strauss e Tim Ingold, a antropologia é vasta. Abaixo, listamos 104 cursos online gratuitos de antropologia que irão te introduzir e especializar em cada temática disponível.
