Cultural Materialism explained in under 6 minutes | Anthropological Theories

Delve into the concept of Cultural Materialism as proposed by anthropologist Marvin Harris. In under 6 minutes, we explain how customs and behaviors within a society are not random, but rather serve a purpose to enhance the material wellbeing of that society. From food choices to societal changes, Cultural Materialism examines how the material aspects of a society, such as infrastructure, technology, and economy, influence its culture. Watch this latest video in our series on anthropological theories explained in 6 minutes, crisp and concise, perfect for revision or a quick introduction.
