دور العلوم الإنسانية في تحسين جودة نوعية الحياة داخل المجتمع المصري : علم الأنثروبولوجيا أنموذجا

Abstract EN

The current study seeks to shed light on the role and importance of anthropology, mainly applied anthropology, in improving the quality of life for Egyptian citizens.

it monitors some service oriented national projects, which aim to provide a decent life for Egyptians.

this study builds on the descriptive analytical approach and the historical approach.

the tools (interview, focus group interview, and interview guide) were employed to collect scientific material by applying them to faculty members of some governmental universities and centers and a random sample of postgraduate students at the faculty of higher African studies, Cairo university.

the current study has reached several results, including that anthropology in Egypt is a science whose importance or role in society is still being determined.

this can be done at the formal or informal level and even for university students.

further, anthropology has yet to play its fundamental role in facilitating the development of societies and achieving a decent life for the Egyptian citizen, like the rest of the countries that rely on it in setting policies.

this could be attributed to the crisis of trust between the government and anthropology.

in addition, the Egyptian government has little faith in field studies carried out by anthropologists within universities, government agencies and centers.

as a consequence, the current study proposes a law requiring socialists, anthropologists, psychologists, and economists be placed on every committee of the Egyptian government.
