AN 272 MU Shamanism Practices in The Contemporary World Discussion
Im studying for my Philosophy class and dont understand how to answer this. Can you help me study? Drawing on the video about shamanism in Siberia, and the Humphrey article, how do you see shamanism fitting into contemporary “modern” world? Are shamans representing authority, or are they expressions of uncertainty that comes with cultural and political transformations? Are contemporary shamans, like the ones portrayed in the article and the film, religious specialists in Turner’s sense?VIDEO- TEXT- Pamela Moro anthology, Magic, Witchcraft, and Religion: A Reader in the Anthropology of Religion, 9th Edition
