    Anthropology is a very broad field of study that, to perform accurate study, has necessitated breaking the field into four subfields. "Anthropology is the holistic study human-kind; it searches for interrelationships among all the parts of its subject" (Park 2015, p.15). Humans, as a species, are very complex and therefore the four subfields of anthropology are utilized to further our understanding by focusing on certain aspects of the interrelated study of mankind. To understand a society, every aspect of that society needs to be examined; where they came from, how that society interacted with their environment and each other and how they communicated with each other as well. Therefore, the four four subfields of anthropology are utilized.…

    Wildfires are a vital and a natural part of nature. They play a role in shaping ecosystem by serving as an instrument of disruption and renovation. For this reason, humans have learned to harness its power and use it for thousand of years as a land management tool. They continuously use it to bring out its positive benefits such as cleaning up forests of dead and decaying mater and maintaining ecosystem balance between beneficial and harmful plants and animals. However, as a result of change in climate in combination with human use (and misuse) of fire, fires are now a major threat to many forests and their biodiversity.…

    Energy captured, production, population, and exchange are all evident in various cultures and societies throughout time. Because these factors affect all humans and societies equally, they must all equally be accounted for within that particular culture/society’s methods of sustainability. The first example I will use to illustrate this point will be Britain’s empire during the 16th-18th centuries. Britain at the time had its scope of influence include over 1/5th of the world’s entire population. This expansive effort to colonize or commercialize by sea led to Britain’s global dominance during the era. By establishing colonies and trade routes throughout the world, Britain was able to use human labor in various colonies to grow cash crops and food to serve Britain’s empire (economy). This was especially important considering Britain’s geography and land made for a poor agrarian society. Using wind and human labor, the British were able to build ships and a powerful navy to traverse the 7 oceans for profit, production, and exchange.…

The canopies of these pines are being incinerated and thus destroyed in regions of New Mexico and Arizona. However, this area used to not burn so dramatically. Years ago, the fire regime, or pattern, was much different (Roos 2016: “Megafires” lecture).…

    Both of these problems imply that developing countries should have greater protections against international markets than developed ones and greater barriers to trade. Despite such problems, IMF policy in response to crises, which is supposed to be guided by neoliberal ideas such as the Washington Consensus, is to increase liberalization of the economy and decrease barriers, allowing bigger capital flight and the chance for foreign firms to shore up their monopolies. Additionally, the IMF acts to increase moral hazard, since international involvement will usually result in an international…
