Ethnographic Video Online

We have a trial from Alexander Street Press’ Ethnographic Video Online until May 8, 2012. Access is on campus only for the trial.

Ethnographic Video Online is a comprehensive resource for the study of human culture and behavior.

Thematic areas include: family and race, material culture, language and culture, kinesthetics, body language, food and foraging, cooking, economic systems, social stratification and status, caste systems and slavery, male and female roles, kinship and families, political organization, conflict and conflict resolution, religion and magic, music and the arts, culture and personality, marriage, gender, and family roles.

All videos offer accompanying written transcripts where the spoken word is highlighted as it is spoken.
