Abstract

KROTZ, Esteban. Las antropologías segundas en América Latina: interpelaciones y recuperaciones. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2015, n.42, pp.05-17. ISSN 1850-275X.

This article contributes to the understanding of the characteristics and potential of Latin American "Anthropologies of the South". First, it addresses the meaning of the term "second anthropologies"; it then differentiates them from anthropologies in the South and anthropologies of the South. Next, the article discusses certain current transformations of human civilization in general and of the university system specifically, being both the contexts where anthropological knowledge is generated. Finally, the article addresses a critical revision of significant achievements of twentieth century Latin American social and human sciences.

Keywords : Anthropological knowledge; Latin American Anthropologies; Second Anthropologies; Anthropologies of the South; Contexts of anthropological knowledge.
