Three-Dimensional Perspective on Digital Anthropological Impact Analysis: Case Study of COVID-19 Pandemic

Anthropology has both a complex and comprehensive set of studies based on man and the field of anthropology; all aspects of humanity must be studied according to its holistic approach. The new turning point in the field of anthropology, that is digital anthropology can be viewed from a dualistic perspective, both personally and socially. Theoretical explanation of this study describes the commitment of digital anthropology to the concept called holism in anthropology. Through this composition, the crucial expansion of man's journey into the digital world was elucidated through the etic, emic approaches and the aspects of human experiences. It has been demonstrated through an observational look at the Sri Lankan social environment that has arisen through the Covid - 19 epidemic. The presence of the Corona virus has caused a change in the entire Sri Lankan lifestyle. It has had an impact on the overall personal behaviour. The new culture is unfamiliar and the way to behave is different than ever. This explores the ways in which the concept of the digital is positioned in people's behaviour and how it is committed to protecting the integrity of holism in anthropology. Mainly observation and theoretical reading were used to conduct this study. Various aspects of the study of human experience in anthropology can also be regarded as a holistic approach. Accordingly, in the face of many changes in the social mechanism, digitalization of the human experience has taken place. Social change is related to the experiences of human beings in the fields of education, health, politics, economy, and religions. Digitalization also has had an impact on each of these experiences and this whole commentary explores the broader contribution of digital anthropology to the holistic approach of anthropological studies.
