Abstract

Social anthropology courses, some elective and some mandatory, for archaeology students at the Department of Archaeology, University of Belgrade, commenced only after 2003.  Since Serbian society opened itself from its isolation, the key challenge has been to teach new generations who have grown up during the civil wars in Former Yugoslavia to recognize broader perspectives on human cultures, universalities, and differences. Anthropology has been consequently utilized as a prominent tool for cultural relativism, multiculturalism, ‘Otherness’, and reflexive thinking. However much these facets have all proved necessary, they seem to have fallen to the wayside in ‘post-truth’ world. It has therefore become unclear in teaching how to address the phenomenon. This paper aims to critically discuss anachronous traditions in social and physical anthropology in combination with new challenges of the biologisation of social identities in archaeology and social anthropology.
贝尔格莱德笔记:冲突后社会的考古学学生的社会人类学
2003年以后,贝尔格莱德大学考古学系才开始为考古学学生开设社会人类学课程,其中有些是选修课,有些是必修课。自从塞尔维亚社会摆脱孤立以来,主要的挑战是教育在前南斯拉夫内战期间长大的新一代认识到对人类文化、普遍性和差异的更广泛的看法。因此,人类学被用作文化相对主义、多元文化主义、“他者性”和反身性思维的重要工具。尽管这些方面都被证明是必要的,但在“后真相”的世界里,它们似乎已经落到了路边。因此,如何解决这一现象的教学变得不明确。本文旨在结合考古学和社会人类学中社会身份生物化的新挑战,批判性地讨论社会人类学和体质人类学中的时代错误传统。
