The course presents some of the developments in anthropological thinking that were produced between mid-century and the decade of the eighties. We will study the texts of authors who represent the currents of thinking and schools that flowered in French anthropology, British Society, and North American culture. The chosen selection will be representative in its importance and impact, but does not and cannot pretend to be exhaustive. To the degree that the anthropological production of a period influences and is influenced by discourses and discussions outside of anthropology, we will look at some of those developments. The course will also approach the analysis and the critical principles of some of anthropological histories (P. Mercier, M. Harris, A. Kuper, J. Llobera, A. De Wall Malefijt, and others)

The purpose of this course is to provide a general panorama of the history of anthropology in Colombia, in order for students to learn its main lines of thought. The course discussions will travel through the history of the discipline from the end of the 19th Century up to the 1980s based on texts, biographies and events worth pointing out for being fundamental in the consolidation of the discipline in Colombia. The main objective is for students to become familiar with the different theoretic approaches developed over time by the discipline in Colombia in order for them to be capable of identifying the problems and questions covered and the concepts that were developed, as well as discursive strategies and methods. The history of Colombian anthropology will be placed in the context of the main contributions of anthropological thought in Latin America, particularly the traditions of Mexico and Brazil. It attempts to reflect on the conditions of anthropology in Colombia and Latin America in the framework of the emergence of modernity in the region, thus paying close attention to the socio-political contexts that conditioned its development. In order to do so, the course also views the reflections that Colombian and Latin American anthropology have set forth over the last few decades, developing an anthropology from anthropology.

Anthropology is a discipline that has traditionally been dedicated to studying culture, it is perhaps the most influenced, which in turn has influenced theories on contemporaneous society. Since it is meant to understand the meaning of cultural changes, it plays a leading role in new theoretic tendencies. On another note, by radically questioning its relationship with the "other" the discipline has found itself in the obligation of viewing itself in a critical manner. The course provides knowledge of the key tendencies in analyzing society today, from perspectives that not only attempt to understanding the meaning of cultural transformations, but also aim at inquiring the process of knowledge itself in order to propose new research alternatives.

This course focuses on preparing the research project for the graduation thesis. The discussion and monitoring of the subject selected by each of the participants must be useful to define the research topic, delimit the conceptual area of the project, monitor the theoretic and practical background, propose general and specific objectives, specify the methodological criteria required to collect, treat and analyze the information, and to define the research tools, such as the sources and how to deal with them. Since this is a practical course, activities revolve around the specific bibliographic reference of each subject, and the discussion and preparation of the individual projects.

The thesis is one of the graduation options offered by the department to students interested in carrying out their first experience in the field of research. It constitutes the final stage of undergraduate studies. It is based on a research problem of the student´s personal interest, either theoretic-conceptual or practical for application in anthropology. It is a research exercise carried out by the student with the assistance of a director, chosen from among the professors of the department or the community of professionals with the expertise required to guide the student, approved by the Department’s undergraduate committee. The expected result is a document at least 60 pages long that meets all the academic requirements of form and content required by the Department and agreed on with the project director.
