According to Ralph Waldo Emerson an ideal education is to
nurture in a child the kind of education he is naturally inclined to, this can
be seen through his interests, habits etc. He said when a child is forced to
study with other children and his natural abilities are suppressed to match
other children in that class, that is not a healthy education for the child as
he has to get dragged behind because not every child is a genius. Emerson gives
the example of Plotinus and Socrates to show their natural ability to teach and
calls them “Natural Teachers”. He suggests that everyone should take part in “mutual
pleasure of teaching and learning”. He adds that female force is preferable to
male force in natural teaching as that is more sympathetic rather than
controlling.
Answer:
Imagined communities
Explanation:
The concept of Imagined communities was developed in 1983 by historian Benedict Anderson, the concept of imagined communities refers to the fact that a nation "<em><u>is imagined because the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communion"</u></em>
So, members of most ethnic groups and nations will never know each other face to face and yet, they identify themselves as part of a nation with common characteristics (and this is where <u>nationalism</u> appears).
Therefore, according to this concept, <u>nations are a socially constructed group, imagined by people who perceive themselves as part of the group. </u>
Thus, we can conclude that the question regarding anthropological research refers specifically to Imagined communities.
Deforestation is when people cut down trees (which means less oxygen for the people). Soil degradation associated with poor soil fertility management practices is a major factor underlying poor agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa. About 65% of the agricultural land is degraded, mainly due to low nutrient application, soil erosion and soil acidification.
