Cultural Studies and Cultural Anthropology

 But why is that? And how did those everyday habits, rituals and ways to interact in “our” society come about? How have they been transformed in the course of history? And how are they linked to global changes? How come we feel a sense of belonging to certain social groups, but to others we do not? Why do we distance ourselves from other people, ostracize others or are ostracized ourselves? Who can and is allowed to be part of “our” society and who is not? What do the terms cultural diversity and cultural identity mean? These are just some of the interesting questions the Cultural Studies and Cultural Anthropology degree program seeks to find answers to. This subject must be combined with a second subject.
