A philosophical approach that focuses on the human being.<\/li>\n<li>It involves a survey in knowing on what ground <strong>a community of people<\/strong> has based its faith and built its institutions, its main social patterns; it also studies their interactions with each other.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><a id=\"post-63625-_t4i7o39wp8ux\"><\/a>In What Way Does Sociology Differ From Anthropology?<\/h2>\n<p>Sociology uses data on the <strong>dynamics and mechanisms<\/strong> that govern human behaviour and its environment in order to explain human social behaviour. Anthropology is a science based on the study of man through <strong>concrete facts, material evidence and physical features<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>A sociologist can study the <strong>habits and customs<\/strong> of a tribe, by shedding light on the mechanisms that formed the basis of a ritual for instance.<\/p>\n<p>An anthropologist can study the <strong>physical characteristics,<\/strong> the behaviours of a group of humans, and classify them into a category based on their similarities.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-65531\"
