In the following commentary I’m going to present a summary of an article published in “The Guardian” on July 1, 2008.
This article is about a critical review of a new show, “Tribal Wives”, which was made by an anthropologist who wanted to report the life and point of view of the Huaorani tribe in Ecuador. With that intention, he sent a woman who wanted to search something new and different in another culture, to give her life some sense. This woman, who wants to change her life, decided to go to this strange place that it’s unknown for her, where the history takes place. The show could be better, but instead of showing something great and different they prefer to exhibit a romantic history and they don’t present different perspectives on what it is to be human (which is one of the intentions of Anthropology).
If you want to read the complete text, you can search in www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/jul/01/anthropology and there you will found it.
