Program Overview
- Program Description:
The Leiden MA in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology is unique in the way it combines the analysis of cultural difference with a critical perspective on global development. Whereas “culture” signifies the differences between human beings, “development” connects different human societies by new technological, intellectual, economic and cultural relationships. Our programme teaches students to relate these globalising developments in practice, by stimulating them to do an independent study of the ways in which large-scale developments tie into small-scale experiences of people all over the world – and vice versa.
