  1. Cross-cultural researcher

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 A cross cultural researcher is a type of ethnologist interested in discovering general patterns about cultural traits. This branch of anthropology investigates what is universal and variable among cultures , why traits vary, and what consequences come from the variations. Cross cultural researchers generally follow cross cultural research theory, which holds that most cultures share common evolutionary and functional traits. This view has evolved from the notion of cultures progressing from barbarism to civilization and primitive versus advanced races to a more nuanced, comparative view. This evolution also seeks to de emphasize various traditional approaches based on race and racism, to a more objective, neutral view of cultures, taking in all their diversity and variability.

He was a great admirer of Bliss s classification and used most of his life to develop a revised edition BC2 , a task he did not fulfil. The BC2 preserved the general structure of BC1, but the revised edition BC2 is to all intents and purposes a new scheme of classification, realising the hopes of the Classification Research Group for the development of a new British scheme of classification.
