Nationality and Ethnicity: A Look Into the Beyond Introduction When the discipline of anthropology began to emerge from the mists of the 19th century, distinguishing itself from other fields of study, its subject matter was considered to be the culturally autonomous peoples, each with its own language and its own territory, in places far from what was then reckoned to the “civilized world.” Anthropology accepted the fiction that these societies could be studied as self sufficient entities. In the United States, under Boasian influences, the focus of research was on American- Indian groups—referred to as “tribes” – as they have previously lived before being subjected to the influence of the “white man’s” culture. The aim was to reconstruct a picture of their former cultures.
