Science of People and Anthropology of Man

Summary/Abstract: A determination of a relationship between ethnology and anthropology with etymology as a starting point, loses a developmental dimension. Besides, a reduction in anthropology to the question:” What is a man” and discussion of “general characteristics of human existence” represents reduction of anthropology to only one subject, which is the cause of the anthropology’s marginalized position. On the other hand, a notion of ethnology is being discharged from the content by a break-up with a metaphysically constructed conception of “folk spirit” and all the rest “ethno” dispositions. Hence, there is no point in discussing the relationship of a totally reduced anthropology and de-constructed ethnology. Current state of affairs within academically constituted disciplines in Serbia has shown that the vacancy originated by an ethnology de-construction was not filled in by anthropology, reduced to “anthropology of Man” but a considerable “anthropologization” of ethnological institutional frame.
