All the anthropologists in the comments saying Boas was an "intellectual giant" and "you need to take an anthropology course to understand" are like middle IQ.
Thank you very much. An excelent documentary about a great antropologist and humanist altogether. It is obvious that men are essentially cultural products. And I think that his german origins have helped to create his sense of comparative cultural relativeness.
I don't think Boas completely disregarded race, simply recognized that the biological differences between humans are very small. He saw many cultural differences, and spent his life studying cultures, but when it comes down to how 'human' we are, biologically we're all the same...
"Unlike specific biological traits morality is not dictated by biology" Morality is behavior labeled "moral" or "immoral", it's a purely social construct. Since different organisms have different behavioral tendencies, then they will have different "moral" tendencies. I don't know what you mean by "education" or what groups you're even talking about.
"Who says they can’t assimilate?" Who says they can? "How well people assimilate to different countries depends on... measures..." Yes, just like your height depends on nutrition. Is that why women are shorter than men, because they eat less?
"Biology as such does not in fact dictate culture in any way." This is magical thinking. What does then? "It is only logical that people living in close quarters of one and other tend to adopt similar customs" Right, because people who evolved in similar regions have similar genetics. This is why europeans going to the US assimilated into one "white" people easily, while african immigrants to Canada, Britain, Sweden, etc. do not assimilate.
You need to take an actual anthropological class. It is not "magical" it is empirical. North America was colonized by Europeans, so yes of course European migrants integrated more in NA than Asians. Biological adaptation gave us the capacity for culture, but it was culture that gave us the capacity to adapt to nearly every ecosystem on the planet. It was the collective experience (culturally) adapting to different ecosystems that led to the formation of distinct cultures. From the resulting cultures and they're representative technologies people could stay in an ecosystems long enough for phenotype variation (usually referred to as race) to occur. The reality that most fail to see is that it is our very differences that prove just how similar we are!
Yes of course all human behavior is rooted in biology to the extant that all human activities require a body to function. This does not mean that a particular biological trait x causes y cultural outcome. No such link has been made by biologists or anthropologists.
Thats a very simplistic notion . Assimilation depends on so many factors . Cultures coexist for many reasons Did the British succeed in ruling India with so few in positions of power, because the native population inherently understood the class system and top down authority as it mirrored their own hindu caste structure ? 500 words on my desk by friday morning
Is it because of culture that all black Haiti looks like Detroit, which looks like Africa? Is it because of culture that white America looked like Australia and Europe? People can eat McDonalds and speak the language that doesnt mean someone from Zimbabwe is as American as George Washington. People only point to superficial things like the food, the clothes, the language people adopt but ignore the underlying aspects that make up human character.
I can relate to where you're coming from on this - however, a coin always has two sides to it. For the celebration of anthropological successes and breakthroughs, my country Canada, is a living testament - for without people like Franz Boas and Samuel Hearne, it wouldn't have been possible to establish a country this vast. On the other hand, the decimation of native cultures that followed early pioneers is a truly shameful chapter in Canadian history. Two sides to a coin - always. Good luck!
What do you think were the most important ideas, concepts, and practices Boas contributed to not only the field of Anthropology, but our overall perceptions of other people?
Is there a version that is clearer without subheadings in a different language? The version with the Spanish subheadings is so much clearer. Compare 2:12 here to two thirty-two on the following. ua-cam.com/video/zK5lYPeAbDM/v-deo.html I cannot believe the difference in visual quality.

@caviper 1 How does relativism separate us? I would conclude the opposite. Functionalism harkens more to an evolutionary model, which implies winners and losers in a cultural struggle for survival. Relativism gives us a basis for understanding the inherent value of all cultures--after all culture is the result of a specific society's adaptations and adjustment to their environmental and social environments --unlike functionalism, this does not imply that some cultures are better than others
"and subtle genetic variations are becoming even more subtle." Um... no? Without the mask of "culture", the genetic differences are put on full display. In the US for example, nobody speaks of italians or poles or irish. They speak of the genetically distinct races. The ephemeral and transient "culture" breaks down, leaving behind the underlying genetic base.
look at minute 37 and after, the traditional artist is wearing nikes lol, that´s globalization, and thet we are talking about these things using this media tool is even more globalizated. so we have to begin thinking how we insert on this new paradigm, not blaming boas or defending him, the damage was done when boas got there, the damage is done even on this moment, there is nothing else to do, that look the way we insert on this keeping ourselves and make it righ also on others
"Education is largely effected by economic and social circumstances" - Kay. Are the currently extant differences in schools within the United States the cause of racial differences in years of schooling? Not "X is influenced by circumstance". Sure, height is influenced by "economic and social circumstance" too. That's why people in China were 4 inches shorter in 1950 than they are today. And that's why Bill Gates is 10,000 feet tall. (Hint: only one of those statements is true)
34:50 Not too sure I'd be as comfortable as they were when walking under that old decrepit house. That thing looked like it could have fallen at any moment haha
so most comments focus on Jews and not the topic... hmmm. Funny how Jews interest so many people. As a zionist Jewess in Israel, I find this culture of focusing on Jews so very much, very fascinating. Thank goodness we are still here to interest so many people. ;)
Culture is created by people. People are the biology. Culture is created by the biology. To what extent this culture then turns in on the biology and influences the biology is more speculative and requires proof. We know objectively that culture is created by the biology. Biology is the base, culture is merely the superstructure.
@knightschwartz Boas never discarded the idea of race on a social level. He says that "race" is just not a reality when it comes to biology; saying that a south african man is more inclined to rape women because his genes is complete nonsense. It all goes back to the entanglement with his own specific "system of meanings" and what sociologist like to call "socialization".
Oh, are we playing the "use exceptions to ignore the trend" game? Okay. I know a girl who is taller than most boys. Therefore boys and girls aren't genetically different in terms of height, because some girls are taller than the boy average. In fact, at young ages, girls are about the same height as boys, which is evidence that it's not until the cultural norm that "girls are to be small and cute" is internalized that the height gap develops, and girls start behaving more "girly" toward boys.
1. What dictates culture? Humanity in larger regional groups creates culture. Different environmental circumstances surrounding those people create culture. Different religious traditions create culture. Morality brought on in large parts by religious dogma creates culture. Different cultures create division, identity and values. Only thanks to globalization, like someone here pointed out; those cultural barriers are rapidly fading and subtle genetic variations are becoming even more subtle.
Wow I hope you people criticizing him do not live anywhere near me (BTW I am of white Euro-Amer descent in case you thought otherwise or some crazy s***) You SCARE me to be so hateful to a man who opened so many minds and doors!

All you anthropology students who are not sounding very enthusiastic about this film ? I have to say I am just knocked out by Boas , he must have experienced massive push back for his ideas in an era of rampant eugenics . Hitler credited the US for their progressive ideas about racial purity , far ahead of the Germans. Its not touched on here but as a Jew in the era of Ford , Lindberg etc Boas must have copped some proper flak
Anyway, the second generation tends to be more politically radical and violent than the first generation. First generation immigrants are more integrated than the second generation is. My belief is that the first generation immigrants are more aware of the contrast in living standards, and thus more respectful of the society that created it.
Race is a biological fact,people are born unequal in certain aspects.A channel here on youtube Alternative Hypothesis did a great video debunking this pseudoscientist's absurd claims.Also read Culture of critique.
Boas said all Cultures, race, biology are EQUAL, Malinowski said all Cultures, races, biology are NOT equal, rather evolutionary and therefore different.You make up your own mind ????????
Samy KEFI so why didn't they mention that he was Jewish in the beginning. Obviously the shackles of that culture are present...but maybe they talk about that later.

or of receiving the same level of education? Unlike specific biological traits morality is not dictated by biology - humans and other organisms with hierarchies are biologically capable to recognize moral units …but it is the moral unit that is passed down from the higher ups (i.e. social norms). Education is largely effected by economic and social circumstances. Just because someone is uneducated that does not imply that they are genetically incapable of learning.
The viewership of the video seems to break down between students here for an anthropology course, and those here because of the critique of cultural relativism as it was enshrined by Boas in anthropology.
Culture is created by people sharing specific values within the realms of a nation for instance. They are regional. Those values become reinforced through socialization to the extent that we come to regard them as reality (even though objective reality behind any experience is false). You have to specify what you mean. Biology as such does not in fact dictate culture in any way. It is only logical that people living in close quarters of one and other tend to adopt similar customs;
identifying with someone. When speaking with black people I tend to find that that even though they’d like to befriend whites some whites won’t respond to them the way they’d like to. It’s not necessarily a racial thing either but rather it has to do with feeling out of place; you feel you can’t relate to the other person. 4. Let’s say you adopted a child from Africa; are you seriously suggesting that that child is less capable of learning the moral values that you try to instill upon it
@HannibalBarca13 Referring to "peer" reviewing and "graduate students" is simply an appeal to authority instead of truth. That doesnt mean that non authoritative knowledge is true but your rating agency mentality offers zero enhancement in quality. Also labeling people as "cowards" and "idiots" is non honorable discourse and if there were any sanity in your cultural life style you would subscribe to higher standards of interaction and not ego radiate yourself at the cost of others.
This is wrong. Races differ in allele frequencies. Race A will more often have one variant of a gene than another. While on any given gene, a european person may be closer to an african, the odds that they will be closer on all 23,000 genes is a little over 10 billion to 1 assuming a 5% average frequency difference. When someone says "there's more variation within than between", they mean on each gene. And so that statement is trivially true. But on the whole genome, it's virtually impossible.
