Abstract

The article offers information about the generalizing models of structure, system, and process for ordering relationships among the cultural data, in the spirit of this modern effort in science. Furthermore, it presents information on the progress in the field of anthropology as well as an explanation of the science of anthropology, the impacts of culture on man's special behavior, and the views of sociologists on anthropology. The author also includes the study of the small but growing tradition within anthropology which is constructing the behavioral, not formal or mental, structures and processes for the social reality of culture, which are operational in defining and empirical but generative in ordering the data.
