Anthropology and jobs. Experiences and information for students in anthropology
##In the first part of the guide book 16 ethnologists and cultural anthropologists report their different and changeable stages of work after studying. Their working experiences in the field of tourism, media, museum, international cooperation, ethnology and education, applied anthropology and ethnology of organization represent the conditions of work for ethnologists. The general situation of education in the departments of ethnology and Völkerkunde is discussed widely as well as the need for critical rethinking of practical aspects missing in the curriculum. On the other hand ethnology and cultural anthropology offer lots of opportunities to realize specific working possibilities. As a result some ethnologists report, that the ability of a creative and independent orientation is found in the training and discussions of acting in unexpected cultural contexts. In the second part 400 addresses of museums, human rights organizations, institutions in the field of international development, tourism, media, and foundations offer new options when searching for an internship or a job. In the third part of the book, extensive lists of bibliography help students and those who are interested in ethnology and Völkerkunde as well as Cultural Anthropology for job orientation.##
