Melford Spiro

Dari Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia, ensiklopedia bebas

Melford Elliot "Mel" Spiro (26 April 1920 – 18 Oktober 2014) adalah seorang antropolog budaya Amerika yang berspesialisasi dalam antropologi agama dan antropologi psikologis. Ia dikenal karena kritiknya terhadap pilar teori antropologi kontemporer—determinisme budaya grosir, relativisme budaya radikal, dan keragaman budaya hampir tak terbatas—dan untuk penekanannya dalam kepentingan teoretis dari keinginan dan kepercayaan bawah sadar dalam studi stabilitas dan perubahan dalam sistem sosial dan budaya, khususnya dalam hal keluarga, politik, dan agama. Dijelaskan dalam berbagai publikasi teoretis, mereka secara empiris dicontohkan dalam monografi yang berdasarkan pada penelitian lapangannya di atol Ifaluk Mikronesia, sebuah kibbutz Israel,[1][2] dan sebuah pedesaan di Burma (sekarang Myanmar).[3]
