What idea did franz boas introduce into American anthropology?
Franz Boas introduced the concept of cultural relativism into American anthropology. Cultural relativism is the idea that a person's beliefs, values, and practices should be understood based on that person's own culture, rather than being judged against the criteria of another culture. This idea has had a significant impact on how anthropologists approach the study of human societies and cultures.

What is the politics of representation in anthropology?
The politics of representation refers to how anthropologists represent various groups of people, the power embedded in those representations (who gets to speak for whom, and what picture they get to paint) as well as how those representations are used, both by the group itself and by other interested parties, to serve particular agendas. Imagine, for example, an anthropologist who writes about the ritual practices of a particular indigenous group. Then imagine that the indigenous group objects to that representation, saying it's either false or that the anthropologist has no right to write about it. That's the politics of representation. Or imagine that the indigenous group likes the representation, and uses the anthropologist's writing to make a case for land rights or cultural uniqueness or to market themselves to tourists. That's also the politics of representation. Or imagine that the anthropologist's depiction is used by the government to make a case against the group represented, saying it's a savage or backward group that should be domesticated. That's the politics of representation too. I hope that helps!
