Anthropology

i need more than dictators. im looking for an evil individual to fit each criteria:
-Master (at some domain ex: Mozart)
-Maker (of some domain ex: Sigmund Freud)
-Introspector (of themself ex: Virginia Woolf)
-Influencer (of people ex: Ghandi)

if you noticed, those examples were of "good" people. i want to write an essay to show that great individuals dont always have to be good.

Now, the influencer i know i'm going to use someone like hitler, since he is most notably greatest evil speaker. but what about the others?

please send answer with the smartest evil people you know!

Anthropologists spend alot of time studying kinship terminology... why is this?

Maybe I'm wrong, and if I am don't be rude about it, but to me it seems that:

Asians have small noses,
Africans have small noses, and
Middle Easterners/Indians have big noses.

So if the Middle East is between Asia and Africa, why do it's people have larger noses?

Or am I over-analyzing?

Due to interracial marriages, do you believe that there will come a time (say a thousand years from now) that there will be no pure Caucasians, Asians & African race? We won't see a "white" or a "black" or a "brown" race but a combination or a new race? What's your opinion on this? Racist remarks will be reported so don't even think about it!

I want my project to be about the way different cultures in different times understand corporal beauty. More precisely: Techniques used to make the body more beautiful in different cultures and ages. So I need examples of cultures and their techniques for embellishing their body. Maybe you could help by suggesting some books too.

buy a slave so that no other family could buy him/her, and you would treat him/her like any other person, etc... so that you would be protecting them? Or would you just stay out of the whole thing?

I'm trying to write a paper about objectivity in anthropology and interference by the ethnographers. What I'm getting at is that we shouldn't be interfering in other cultures rituals or beliefs. For example, someone is doing their fieldwork and objects to the way that the culture treats their children, they don't have the right to interfere, because how do we know whats best for them. Anyways, does anyone know of some good anthropological articles that I can use in my research? Either for or against interference, or even some key words to use in search engines would be helpful. Thanks!

I see albino people occasionally but today I saw an African girl who appeared to be a complete albino. blonde hair, blonde eyelashes, white skin. It made me wonder if that is where white race appeared from, since first man was African. Differences in animals, say dogs, are due to selective breeding. traits don't just appear, but for some reason science books give us a very vague description of race, saying that Africans traveled to europe where they developed light skin. We never apply such a vague theory to animals, usually scientists will discuss natural selection, where mutations in the genes that manifest physically can be selcted by nature as advantageous. If an African man and his family lived in scandinavia for even 500 or 1000 years, I don't believe that he would eventually become white. If he had an albino offspring, however, could not that be naturally selected as an advantage in that climate?

I mean obviously if man ever was a caveman he would have to know how kill a wooly mammoth or giant lizard or face extinction.
