1. Written Activity #1: Your Past & Future Via Anthropology
This assignment is the first of a series of activities called "Public Anthropology" that we will do this semester. It is inspired by Margaret Mead's engagement with wider publics - not just other anthropologists. The world, it seems, could benefit from a more anthropological perspective. What is anthropology, what kinds of questions or issues does it raise for you, and how are the skills applicable? What is the "Big Question" that interests you? This is what we are ultimately getting to.
Objective: To think about and synthesize your anthropological learning these past years, and to articulate to nonspecialist audiences the complexities of bringing an anthropological approach to a human problem.
Outcome: Discussing the ethics, benefits, and pitfalls of bringing an anthropological approach to wider publics.
First, read the following articles assigned:

In terms of structuring your essay, the thesis statement typically goes at the end of the introduction. In your introduction, you set up what you are writing about by explaining the key points you will use to support your thesis.
Now that we are focusing on using evidence in your work, it is important to understand the significance of avoiding plagiarism. Plagiarism is taking someone elses ideas and using them as your own without giving credit.Self-plagiarism is also a form of plagiarism. You can actually plagiarize yourself if you resubmit work you used in a previous class. If you ever want to reuse work, then you need to make significant changes to the previously submitted material and check with your current instructor about what you need to revise.
WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR A CITATION?

Compare the early law codes of Hammurabi and the Biblical Covenant. They can be found in Sayre pp. 49-51 and 58-59 and I have attached them as word documents. The paper must be between 550-650 original words in length and in MLA format.

Talking Points:
What kinds of general themes do you find in the codes? Based on the codes, what can you say about organization and outlook of the societies?
