A question for my lovely antropoloogs and the like…
Which anthropologists do you cherish and admire; why? Who are your least favorites?

dakreeeets answered:
du Waal’s research on morality and Chomsky on linguistics. They’re badasses. Honorable mention is Pinker only cause he’s psych.

Dr. adrien hannus, mostly because he is my prof. And was on time team america. Also George Frison for his research on the northern plains.

I know this isn’t strictly correct, but I’m going to give an honourable mention to Darwin as the sine qua non of palaeoanthropology.

Love Boas for refuting racist anthropology; Mauss & Taussig for irresistible rhetorical swag; Lynn Meskell for materiality, heritage rights.

I Think Mauss is really interesting, about what you can do with him, and the least it’s Levi-Strauss and I think is just for personal options

I love Margaret Mead, she brought important questions to our discipline! But I’m not an anthropologist yet, just third semester :D!
