The article anthropological fieldwork in cities by George M. Foster and Robert V. kemper speak of how anthology has evolved over time and the impacted it caused , not only towards anthropologist, but to the people they studied. when anthropologist studied or practiced anthropology during the nineteenth century anthropologist never left there home cities to study people , indeed they got their information from missionaries, colonial administrator, and travelers. however, as time pasted by, technology improved and many anthropologist decided to experience the way peasants lived in villages. many anthropologist that decided to move in had exposed peasants to technology: like televisions and radios, because of these electronics many peasants where able to see how the world was outside their village. therefore, many of them moved out to urban areas in pursuit of a better life, and that why urban anthropology was formed.

Theodore C. Bestor
Theodore C. Bestor was a man that went to Japan to study their culture.
on this journey to a unknown environment Bestor finds and gains the respect of a Japanese family, he tries to help them as much as he can, and study them and their ways. he moves to town near by and is fascinated by his neighbor and their culture. i believe Bestor research in an unknown country has help him to find ways and systems to improve on this research

To tell you the truth i am not sure; sometimes the crime levels in my neighbor seem to be at a high point, and some times its on a low level. For example for a limited time in my neighbor hood things seem to be peaceful, then like a dark cloud unexpected events happen. To me the NYPD is a joke; officers are in a unstable fitness, and seem to arrive after a crime is committed. I belief that cops join the force for money , and don't really care about the safety of the community. i am scared of my neighbor hood aand agree with Merry and Wirth,Cities are dangerous
