The anthropology of development is a term applied to a body of Anthropology anthropological work which tends to view development from a critical perspective. The kind of issues addressed, and implications for the approach typically adopted can be gleaned from a list questions posed by Gow 1996 . These questions involve anthropologists asking why, if a key development goal is to alleviate poverty, is poverty increasing? Why is there such a gap between plans and outcomes? Why are those working in development so willing to disregard history and the lessons it might offer? Why is development so externally driven rather than having an internal basis? In short why does so much planned development fail? This anthropology of development has been distinguished from Development anthropology development anthropology which is more concerned with anthropologists contributions to development projects and the like. ref Gow, David D. 1996 Review The Anthropology of Development Discourse, Agency, and Culture Reviewed work An Anthropological Critique of Development The Growth of Ignorance by Mark Hobart and Encountering Development The Making and Unmaking of the Third World by Arturo Escobar, Anthropological Quarterly Vol. 69, No. 3, Healing and the Body Politic Dilemmas of Doctoring in Ethnographic Fieldwork, Jul., pp. 165 173 ref ref Edelman, Marc, and Angelique Haugerud. 2005 .

Orphan date February 2009 Salvage anthropology is related to salvage ethnography , but involves the collection or salvage of cultural artifacts and even human remains as its method. In the late 19th century native populations were on the decline and early anthropologist s feared that native societies would go extinct. This caused a worldwide collecting fervor among museum s who purchased cultural artifacts to complete their collections on primitive societies. Anthropologists, amateur researchers and other scholars traded, purchased and even stole cultural artifacts from indigenous societies throughout the world, but particularly in North America, to finance their research and expenses. ref Cole, Douglas, Captured Heritage The Scramble for Northwest Coast Artifacts, 1995 ref Salvage Anthropology developed largely in response to destruction of habitations and force movement of people in cases of large scale new construction of roads, buildings, dams, etc. ref Pioneer Methods in Salvage Anthropology, James J.

Anthropology Cognitive anthropology is an approach within cultural anthropology in which scholars seek to explain patterns of shared knowledge, cultural innovation , and transmission over time and space using the methods and theories of the cognitive sciences especially experimental psychology and evolutionary biology often through close collaboration with historians, ethnographers, archaeologists, linguists, musicologists and other specialists engaged in the description and interpretation logic interpretation of cultural forms.
