They temporarily find themselves unable to understand their surroundings, and everything seems strange. Sociologists attempt to create this same feeling, but with one key difference. What is it?

Sociologists try to create this effect without necessarily moving to a new place or geographic location.

Explanation:

Anthropology can be described or explained as the science of humanity, where the past and present aspects of human in the society is studied. This aspect of human include behavior, language and culture. Anthropologists are the people that study anthropology.

Sociology is the study of social behavior and social interaction of the society. Sociologist is the person that study sociology and he/she investigates the interaction of the people in the society.

In conclusion, both anthropologists and sociologists deal with the study of human beings in the society. But the only difference is that anthropologists usually move to new places for findings while it is not necessary need for sociologists to move to new location for their findings.
