An Ethnographic Report: Italians in Italy This six-page paper examines the nation of Italy and is in the form of an ethnographic report. The author applies the definitions of assessments of anthropologist Gary Ferraro to the discussion, and examines Italy in the context of anthropological terms such as Economy, Subsistence and Commercial Activities, Industrial Arts, Trade, Division of Labor, Land Tenure, Marriage and Family, Kinship, Kin Groups and Descent, Sociopolitical Organization, and a host of others. He concludes that the Italian people and their history, culture, language, and society have all been heavily influenced by the peninsulaÂ’s Roman heritage.
