Why is anthropology composed of cultural anthropology physical anthropology archaeology and linguistics?
1800s A+As anthropology is a blanket discipline concerned with humanity in general, it has been broken up into sub-disciplines to deal with the myriad of different ways in which one can study humans.Cultural Anthropology, or Sociocultural Anthropology, is primarily concerned with existing human cultures, sub-cultures, and may focus on such concerns as gender, race, sex, ethnicity, politics, and any other number of aspects of human culture.Physical Anthropology is primarily concerned with the origin of humans as a species. That being said, some physical anthropologists work as primatologists and primarily study apes, monkeys, and other members of the primate family (see Jane Goodall). Alternately physical anthropologists might work in conjunction with archaeologists to better understand our hominid ancestors, or understand diet or other aspects of life in prehistoric times (see Leekey Family). Physical Anthropology also has an offshoot called Forensic Anthropology, which is what you see on CSI.Archaeology is the study of past human cultures. Indiana Jones was NOT an archaeologist, he was an antiquarian-- a precursor to an anthropologist-- in that he did not use science. Archaeology is a highly involved and scientific study concerned with understanding how people lived in prehistoric and historic times.Linguistics is often lumped in with Cultural Anthropology, but as it is addressed here as a separate sub-discipline, I will address it as such. Linguistic Anthropology is the study of languages: how they change, how they are formed, and why certain sounds are ascribed to certain meanings are all aspects of Linguistic Anthropology. See Sapir-Worf hypothesis.

What are the five discipline of the organizational behavior?
Nature Of Organizational Behavior (OB)Organizational behaviour is an applied behavioral science that is built on contributions from a number of behavioral disciplines such as psychology, sociology, social psychology, anthropology and economics.So now students lets see how these disciplines are related to organisational behaviour,• Psychology. Psychology is the study of human behavior which tries to identify the characteristics of individuals and provides an understanding why an individual behaves in a particular way. This thus provides us with useful insight into areas such as human motivation, perceptual processes or personality characteristics.• Sociology. Sociology is the study of social behavior, relationships among social groups and societies, and the maintenance of social order. The main focus of attention is on the social system. This helps us to appreciate the functioning of individuals within the organization which is essentially a socio-technical entity.• Social psychology. Social psychology is the study of human behaviour in the context of social situations. This essentially addresses the problem of understanding the typical behavioral patterns to be expected from an individual when he takes part in a group.• Anthropology. Anthropology is the science of mankind and the study of human behaviour as a whole. The main focus of attention is on the cultural system, beliefs, customs, ideas and values within a group or society and the comparison of behaviour among different cultures. In the context of today's organizational scenario. It is very important to appreciate the differences thatexist among people coming from different cultural backgrounds as people are often found to work with others from the other side of the globe.• Economics. Any organization to survive and sustain must be aware of the economic viability of their effort. This applies even to the non-profit and voluntary organizations as well.• Political Science Although frequently overlooked, the contributions of political scientists are significant to the understand arrangement in organizations. It studies individuals and groups within specific conditions concerning the power dynamics. Important topics under here include structuring Of Conflict, allocation of power and how people manipulate power for individual self-interest etc.

What is anthropological empiricism?
Concept empiricism states that all ideas come from experience. This experience could be direct (sensation) or indirect (reflection or introspection). John Locke, the leading British Empiricist in the 1700's, sates that these concepts are the material of knowledge. Locke believes in two kinds of ideas: simple and complex. Simple ideas (shape, color, size) can be known directly through experience. Other more complex ideas (apples, murder, economics...etc) can be indirectly derived from simple ideas and therefore these complex ideas are indirectly derived from experience. Concept Empiricism, therefore, is committed to concept reductionism that sates that all concepts can be reduced to simple (basic) concepts.
