The situation in Venezuela — for anthropologists in general and practicing anthropologists in particular — is characterized by two sets of circumstances that make it significantly different from the one prevailing in the United States and in Europe. First, there is an extremely broadbased population pyramid with the consequence that there is a great demand for all types of public services. By the same token, there is no lack of jobs in the social sciences, either in teaching or in applied work. In fact, many students start teaching upon obtaining their first professional degree
