Ethnocultural Studies
From the standpoint of human systems theory, the anthropology of knowledge and the problem of symbolic integration and transformation of reality, ethnocultural studies represent the holistic attempt to comprehend in real terms the patterning of individual cultures, and cultural variation as this occurs across time and place, and is subject to systematic changes. Straightforwardly, ethnocultural studies are the comparative and holistic study of corporate, cultural groupings of people, as these are distributed and vary systematically across time and place, and especially as these are defined by their relations and interactions with other people and other groups of people.
Human ethnoculture provides a forum and framework for understanding the symbolic articulation of human reality in naturalistic and historical terms of real people and their lives in situ and in group context.
For more detailed elaboration on the principles of human ethnoculture and relevant ethnocultural studies that have been conducted, I refer the interested reader to the following ebook:
