Bronisław Kasper Malinowski (April 7, 1884 – May 16, 1942) was a Polishanthropologist. Malinowski was born in Kraków, Poland. He originated the school of social anthropology known as functionalism, holding the belief that all components of society interlock to form a well-balanced system. In contrast with other contemporary functionalists like Radcliffe-Brown, Malinowski argued that culture functioned to meet the needs of individuals, not the culture as a whole.
BronislawMalinowski was born in Krakow, Poland on April 7, 1884 to Lucyan and Jozefa Malinowski.
Malinowski also discovered evidence to discredit Sigmund FreudÂ’s theory of the Oedipus Complex in the lives of the Trobianders, by proving that individual psychology depends on cultural context.
One of Malinowski's major achievements was a satisfactory integration of cultural theory with psychological science.
