Anthropological theory refers to the overarching framework or perspective that guides anthropologists in understanding human behavior, culture, and society. It includes various approaches and concepts that help in analyzing and interpreting diverse cultural practices and phenomena.

The "fifth subfield" of anthropology refers to applied anthropology, which involves applying anthropological knowledge and methods to address real-world issues and problems. This may include working with communities, organizations, or governments to develop solutions and strategies informed by anthropological research.
