Historical particularism became a dominant approach to the study of culture in American anthropology, largely through the influence of many students of Boas.

He notes that each individual has many ancestors-numbering in the hundreds just a few centuries back.

He argued that human evolution was characterized by a struggle he called the “survival of the fittest,” in which weaker races and societies must eventually be replaced by stronger, more advanced races and societies.

DNA testing is also the latest rage many passionate genealogists-and supports businesses that offer to search for a family's geographic roots.

Boas felt that the culture of any society must be understood as the result of a unique history and not as one of many cultures belonging to a broader evolutionary stage or type of culture.

To sum up: a system of conservation based solely on economic self-interest is hopelessly lopsided It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning.

One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value.

It is only in recent years that we hear It is only in recent years that we hear the more honest argument that predators are members of the community, and that no special interest has the right to exterminate them for the sake of a benefit ,real or fancied ,to itself.

But by giving in to critics now they are inviting pressure to make more concessions.

This distinction is so much so that where the latter is lacking, as it is for these unlikely gardens, the foremer becomes all the more urgent.

In most of the homeless gardens of New York City the actual cultivation of plants is unfeasible, yet even so the compositions often seem to represent attempts to call arrangement of materials, an institution of colors, small pool of water, and a frequent presence of petals or leaves as well as of stuffed animals.

Despite these factors, many social scientists seem reluctant to tackle such problems.
