Thanks for insightful lecture especially about the communities in urban centers. So we have a third type of social order: a kind of combination between rural and urban life.

Thanks for the feedback. More recently, anthropologists have been interested in online communities: intro-to-digital-anthropology.blogspot.com/2019/07/3-online-communities-virtual-vs-digital.html

You are a genius! Thanks a lot

[@NicholasHerriman]

So kind of you. But all I did is 'stand on the shoulders of giants'. Those 'giants' are Durkheim and Tonnies.

Thanks, I relied on great teachers to get where I am. Just hoping to pass on some of what anthropologists call "hau": ua-cam.com/video/lAKBcs94ATw/v-deo.html

Thanks for the videos, very clearly explained. I feel more could be said, however, about a lot of the ethnocentric assumptions that were, and are, part of this history. The idea that society/capitalism was 'development' or progress is one, but also as part of this, the distinction between 'rational' and 'traditional', which is very questionable and arguably a legitimising myth of capitalism and modernity

Localism

[@NicholasHerriman]

Some people idealize gemeinschaft. But as you note localism can be the dark side of gemeinschaft.
