Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The successful integration of history with anthropology reflects the positive interactivities between or among academic disciplines. The emergence of historical anthropology is in fact the reasonable complement in knowledge and narration rather than a choice for disciplinary survival. With its progress as well as the improvement in theories, contents and norms development of anthropology, anthropology will take on important features of academic integration and reflection.
