Abstract

In this series of short video clips, anthropologists explain why anthropology is indispensable today. Based on the fundamental question of anthropology – what it means to be human – they show how anthropology makes the familiar strange and the strange familiar. Especially in a world of growing complexity and profound difference, anthropology opens up perspectives that reject simple answers and instead offer nuanced, relational analyses of social realities.
The series began at the GASCA (German Association of Social and Cultural Anthropology) conference in Cologne in 2025, when Sebastian Eschenbach and Britta von der Behrens interviewed several colleagues about their work.
