The meaning and scope of ethno philosophy is more or less equivalent to that of philosophy of calture. However if you look at it very closely one notices that it all boils down to fact that culture serves as a solid platform of every human Endeavour including philosophy. The long and short of it is that no philosophy is culture blind (even if it is not referring explicitly to culture) since philosophers themselves are necessarily an offshoots of specific cultures.
Human beings are social animals- they live within company of other as members in most cases sharing the same values, beliefs as well as upholding the same moral views. Ethno philosophy is nothing but putting more concentration on culture in relation to philosophy setting culture as the base of Philosophy and Philosophers. But most significantly is that ethno philosophy focuses on deriving a sect of philosophy which is specifically cultural in terms of its etymology, scope and metaphysics e.g. African Philosophy Indian philosophy and the like.
