State
Cultural relativism is a method of description, not a moral verdict: understanding why a practice exists commits a researcher to no view about whether it should.
Show
A sociologist can explain how a harmful practice is sustained and still hold that it causes harm.
Watch for
The moral question is real and belongs to ethics, which this course does not settle.
