How do you anticipate your field experience might change your initial plans and expectations?

The field work will definitely change my plans as well as expectations since from the American view, Turkey happens to be another society that is not fully democratized ad needs to adapt to democratic leadership. The thing no one is talking about is the type of community exists at the grassroots especially the youth and the changes they might be undergoing and only concentrates on the older generation. These are the perceptions that will be shaped about the Turkey community and the youth community in particular.

Reflect on what you think distinguishes an anthropological approach and anthropological research from other types of research through your specific imagined case study.

Anthropological research has a very distinct manner of interacting with the subject since the researcher will not ask for the data and figures and leave to analyze them in a library or lab somewhere as is with other types of research, but will live within the setting of the subject and record the personal experiences while within the community.

The holistic approach that anthropology has, hence making it practical application oriented in all fields is yet another peculiar thing with anthropology and sets it apart from the other disciplines.

Exploring their visual arts and artifacts helps improve understanding about Myanmar, Iran, Central African Republic, and Cuba. The ancient art and artifacts from these countries predate their modern statehood, making it challenging to find, for example, art that can be definitively located within what is now the Central African Republic.
