Mesas Redondas CADERNO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO Natal, 2014 Caderno de Programação da 29 ª RBA © ABA Associação Brasileira de Antropologia, 2014 Organização CARMEN RIAL e ELISETE SCHWADE Diagramação MARINA MOROS 29ª Reunião Brasileira de Antropologia 3 a 6 de agosto de 2014 Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte Promoção Associação Brasileira de Antropologia Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte 29 ª RBA - DIÁLOGOS ANTROPOLÓGICOS- EXPANDINDO FRONTEIRAS É com satisfação que apresentamos aqui a programação da 29a RBA, que tem como tema central Diálogos Antropológicos - Expandindo Fronteiras. Esta temática, base da plataforma da gestão da ABA 2013-2015, enfatiza análises críticas e propositivas sobre os dilemas, desafios e perspectivas que permeiam os atuais processos de expansão e transformação da Antropologia. Tem como objetivo apresentar e problematizar não só as transformações e reconfigurações da antropologia como disciplina acadêmica, mas, também, as relações entre essas reconfigurações e as politicas cientificas em voga, a formação de antropólogos e as demandas no mercado de trabalho e, ainda, a relação da pesquisa antropológica com a ação politica, no espaço público. Julga-se aqui de suma importância incitar reflexões criticas sobre a politica da antropologia e sua relação com a politica da ciência e tecnologia. Apesar de sua continua contribuição para a formulação de politicas públicas e propostas para a sociedade, a disciplina confronta ainda o desafio de organizar e afirmar criticamente sua produção intelectual a fim de expor a dimensão humana da ciência, da tecnologia e da inovação, inclusive no que concerne à problematização de meta narrativas sobre desenvolvimento econômico e social. A internacionalização da Antropologia constitui certamente importante caminho para essas reflexões críticas e problematizações, por meio de parcerias intelectuais sobre assuntos de alta relevância na atual conjuntura global (como desenvolvimento, desigualdades sociais, deslocamentos e violências) que possam contribuir com subsídios para políticas públicas e inclusive oferecer treinamento a estudantes de pós-graduação do Brasil e do exterior, assim como resultar em publicações. Uma outra dimensão desse desafio implica a necessidade de divulgação da produção antropológica para audiências mais amplas. A 29a. RBA dá as boas-vindas aos seus mais de 3.500 participantes inscritos oriundos das mais diversas regiões do Brasil e de outros países. Representantes da academia de destaque no país e do exterior, cientistas sociais de várias matizes, antropólogos profissionais com atuação fora da academia, membros do poder judiciário, representantes de Ministérios, profissionais e cientistas de diversas áreas de conhecimento, estudantes de graduação e pós-graduação, entre outros. Como a programação deste Caderno bem demonstra, nosso encontro será cenário de um intenso dialogo de antropologias diversas. Esperamos que estes diálogos resultem em expansões das fronteiras de conhecimento, e que tenham impacto na formulação de políticas públicas para o nosso país.

Seja como área de conhecimento no contexto das instituições museais de cunho enciclopédico, seja criando instituições museais articuladas com a prática etnográfica; seja construindo um olhar particular sobre os museus no contemporâneo. Cada um destes movimentos, expressa um certo tipo de inserção do antropólogo nas práticas da disciplina, bem como revela momentos singulares no cruzamento da História da Antropologia e da História dos Museus. Num primeiro movimento, temos uma vertente evolucionista e positivista da Antropologia, onde a coleta de objetos e sua conservação nos museus expressavam a constituição de acervos documentais de confiabilidade para as pesquisas; num segundo movimento, temos a criação e institucionalização dos chamados “museus etnográficos” - consagrados modelos que associavam o estudo das particularidades culturais à preservação de objetos coletados durante a pesquisa de campo. Num terceiro movimento, os antropólogos passaram a se interessar por etnografar os museus como sintomas de práticas sociais e espaços de poder conjugados a regimes de valor que convertem artefatos em bens consagrados (lógicas colecionistas); expressões culturais e modos de fazer em “bens patrimoniais”; rituais em performances públicas; pessoas em “representantes” e “porta-vozes” de etnias e comunidades. O presente evento visa propiciar o encontro de antropólogos que no seu ofício profissional participam dos museus, seja articulados ás práticas específicas dos “museus etnográficos”, seja realizando “etnografias de museus no contemporâneo”. O encontro pretende ainda abrir uma reflexão sobre a especificidade do “museu etnográfico” e as novas modalidades de museus a ele associados ou dele decorrentes como os “museus indígenas”, os “museus sociais”, os “eco-museus”. 01 DE AGOSTO | LOCAL: HOTEL PONTA DO SOL | SALA PRAIA DE PIPA 9 HORAS ABERTURA Carmen Rial – UFSC /Presidente da ABA Pró-Reitoria de Pesquisa/UFRN Renato Athias – UFPE/Secretário Geral da ABA NOVOS CENÁRIOS SOCIAIS E O LUGAR DOS MUSEUS ETNOGRÁFICOS Coordenador: Manuel Ferreira Lima Filho Laundering Culture: Power and the Production of Museum Exhibits SALLY PRICE – EMERITUS THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY – USA [ 6 ] 29RBA | CADERNO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO PRÉ EVENTO O Museu Maguta e as reconfigurações da memória Ticuna JOÃO PACHECO DE OLIVEIRA – UFRJ/MUSEU NACIONAL Museos y antropologia en Colombia FERNANDO TOVAR BARONA – BANCO DA LA REPÚBLICA – COLÔMBIA 10H30MIN PAUSA 10H45MIN ETNOGRAFIA NOS MUSEUS NO CONTEMPORÂNEO: PRÁTICAS SOCIAIS E REGIMES DE VALOR Coordenadora: Julie Cavignac/UFRN Etnografando a reconfiguração dos museus em cidades requalificadas: o caso da cidade do Rio de Janeiro REGINA ABREU (UNIRIO) Museus, tecnologias e inovação PAULO PEIXOTO (CES/UNIVERSIDADE DE COIMBRA) Do campo ao museu: notas sobre a produção do “arquivo musical’ do folclorista Théo Brandão WAGNER CHAVES (MUSEU THÉO BRANDÃO) 12H15MIN ALMOÇO 14 HORAS SESSÃO I NOVOS CENÁRIOS SOCIAIS, COLEÇÕES E EXPERIÊNCIAS COMPARTILHADAS EM MUSEUS Coordenador: Renato Athias Itinerários de uma coleção Karajá no Museu Nacional (UFRJ)– objetos, atores, pós- colonialismo e cidadania patrimonial MANUEL FERREIRA LIMA FILHO Redes globais de colecionismo etnográfico e as reapropriações contemporâneas de duas coleções Ka’apor MARIANA FRANÇOZO– LEIDEN UNIVERSITY -HOLANDA 15H30MIN PAUSA 16 HORAS SESSÃO I I Coordenador: Manuel Ferreira Lima Filho [ 6 ] 29RBA | CADERNO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO 29RBA | CADERNO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO [ 7 ] PRÉ EVENTO From a European Point of View: Indigenous Amazonian Societies in Ethnographic Museums CLAUDIA AUGUSTAT- MUSEU DE ETNOLOGIA DE VIENA Museus Etnográficos, Temas e Problemas no Brasil atual RENATO ATHIAS (UFPE) Entre termos, conceitos e ações: reflexões sobre “museu etnográfico” e outras possibilidades MARÍLIA XAVIER (MAE/USP) 02 DE AGOSTO | 9 HORAS ANTROPOLOGIA E EXPERIÊNCIA MUSEAL Coordenadora: Regina Abreu O Museu do Futebol/São Paulo JOSÉ GUILHERME MAGNANI-USP Pensando retóricas expositivas no Museu Antropológico da UFG NEI CLARA DE LIMA – MUSEU ANTROPOLÓGICO/UFG Colecionismo e representações culturais EDMUNDO PEREIRA – MUSEU NACIONAL/UFRJ 10H30MIN PAUSA 11HORAS MUSEUS, PATRIMÔNIOS E AS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS Coordenação: Silvana Rubino Sistema Brasileiro de Museus – perspectivas e alcances JOSE NASCIMENTO JUNIOR – COMITÊ GESTOR DE MUSEUS – GOVERNO FEDERAL Antropologia, patrimônios e museus, pontos para uma reflexão SILVANA RUBINO - UNICAMP/ABA CÉLIA MARIA CORSINO – DIRETORA DO PATRIMÔNIO IMATERIAL | IPHAN 12H30MIN ALMOÇO 15 - 19 HORAS VISITA TÉCNICA PELO CENTRO HISTÓRICO, MUSEU CÂMARA CASCUDO (EXPOSIÇÃO: OS PRIMEIROS BRASILEIROS) [ 8 ] 29RBA | CADERNO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO PRÉ EVENTO 002 O FAZER ANTROPOLÓGICO EXTra-aCADEMIA: CONDIÇÕES DE PRODUÇÃO DE LAUDOS E RELATÓRIOS DE RECONHECIMENTO DAS TERRAS DE QUILOMBOS Coordenadoras: Eliane Cantarino O’Dwyer (UFF) e Cíntia Beatriz Müller (UFBA) Este evento tem por objetivo reunir a rede de pareceristas do projeto ABA/FORD e antropólogos do INCRA, indicados pela própria instituição, visando realizar uma reflexão sobre o fazer antropológico junto a contextos de institucionalização da disciplina, mediante a presença de antropólogos no Estado e a produção de relatórios antropológicos para o INCRA (contratados através de Pregão Público e outras modalidades). 01 DE AGOSTO | LOCAL: HOTEL PONTA DO SOL | SALA NATAL 14 - 14H30MIN ABERTURA Carmen Rial (Presidente ABA) LINHAS GERAIS SOBRE A EXPERIÊNCIA DO PROJETO ABA/FORD QUILOMBOS Eliane Cantarino O´Dwyer (UFF) Cíntia Beatriz Müller (UFBA) 14H30MIN - 16H30MIN SESSÃO I ANTROPOLOGIA E RELATÓRIOS ANTROPOLÓGICOS SOBRE TERRAS DE QUILOMBO: CONCEITOS TEÓRICOS UTILIZADOS

It was 1969. The Vietnam War was raging in South- east Asia, and the brutal murders of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Medgar Evers, and Bobby and John F.

    Central States Anthropological Society 2015 annual meeting PROGRAM April 9-11, 2015 Crowne Plaza St. Paul-Riverfront Hotel St. Paul, Minnesota Crowne Plaza St. Paul-Riverfront Hotel, Lower Level Most conference events will take place on the hotel’s Lower Level. The distinguished lecture and reception on Friday are in the Great River Ballroom on Level 1. The business lunch on Saturday is in the Windows Room on the 22nd floor. Two break-out sessions are in Kellogg 1 on the Lobby Level. CSAS Welcomes You to Its 2015 Annual Meeting! Welcome to the 2015 Annual Meeting of the Central States Anthropological Society. This is our 94th meeting, and of all the sections of the American Anthropological Association, we are the oldest (almost as old as the AAA itself). While our past may not be exactly as glorious as an historical romance novel, it's certainly been illustrious, and has at various times sheltered some of the most notable names in the history of anthropology, from Fay-Cooper Cole, Leslie White, Edward Sapir, and Oscar Lewis. So from its very beginnings, the CSAS has taken the four-field approach to the discipline, as initially advocated by Franz Boas, very seriously. In this so-called postmodernist, poststructuralist, post-industrialized, transnational, globally-interconnected world—which ironically has seen the splintering of many academic disciplines (including, at times, anthropology)—it is consoling to know that there are still places where linguists can see the value in talking to biologists, and ethnographers dig archaeologists. The CSAS offers such a venue—where professionals and students alike can engage in thought-provoking and focused debate in a respectful and unpretentious atmosphere.

La antropóloga Afroamericana Leith Mullings es la actual presidenta de la American Anthropological Association y profesora distinguida de Antropología en la City University of New York. Este artículo fue publicado originalmente en The Annual Review of Anthropology de 2005. Mullings, Leith. “Interrogating racism: toward an antiracist Anthropology” The Annual Review of Anthropology. 2005. 34:667-693. Reproducido con el permiso de la autora. Traducido por Aurora Vergara Figueroa. Facultad de Derecho y Ciencias Sociales. Universidad Icesi ISSN 2011– 0324 Interrogando el racismo. Hacia una Antropología antirracista 327 Resumen En las últimas décadas, las manifestaciones globales del racismo han estado sujetas a transformaciones significativas. Las luchas anticoloniales, el movimiento de los derechos civiles y la ofensiva anti-apartheid han retado los regímenes raciales establecidos. No ob- stante, la consolidación del capitalismo global ha creado nuevas formas de racialización. Una variedad de estrategias e intervenciones antirracistas han surgido para confrontar estos nuevos racismos. Los análisis sobre el racismo han buscado interrogar su historia y sus manifestaciones contemporáneas, cómo se ha mantenido, cómo se ha reproducido, al tiempo que han intentado predecir su futuro. En este contexto, el reto para antropólogos y otros científicos sociales yace en avanzar nuestra comprensión de las nuevas manifesta- ciones de la raza y el racismo. Palabras Claves: Raza, movimientos sociales, daltonismo racial, globalización, antirracismo. Abstract Over the past several decades, global manifestations of racism have undergone sig- nificant transformations.

  • The Decolonizing Generation: (Race And) Theory in Anthropology Since the Eighties
    Current Anthropology Volume 57, Number 2, April 2016 129 The Decolonizing Generation: (Race and) Theory in Anthropology since the Eighties by Jafari Sinclaire Allen and Ryan Cecil Jobson In the wake of anthropology’s much storied crisis of representation; attempted corrections following movements of “Third World” peoples, women, and queer folks; the recent disavowal of 1980s and 1990s reflexivity and experi- mentation; and what George Marcus has recently termed a “crisis of reception,” this essay seeks to critically reassess and reanimate the formative interventions of anthropologists of the African diaspora (including Africa itself)— foregrounding work that lends new insights into anthropological theory, method, and pedagogy. The intention here is not to merely redeem the pioneering insights of African diaspora anthropologists as unsung forerunners of con- temporary anthropological theories (though this is a worthwhile endeavor in itself) but rather to illuminate contin- ued and prospective contributions of this mode of knowledge production.

  • A New Bibliography of Elizabeth Colson Revised For
    A New Bibliography of the Works of Elizabeth Colson Norman Buchignani I. Introduction In preparing this bibliography and associated Endnote/RIS database I have tried to make both as inclusive and exhaustive as practically possible. In support of this objective, I think some introductory words about how they came together are in order. I’d also like to comment on the content and organization of the print bibliography, to acknowledge the hard work of others who have compiled compendia of Elizabeth’s work before me, and to recognize those who helped me in its development. The germ of the idea of this bibliography sprang from informal discussions with Elizabeth during a long visit with her in Monze in mid-2015. Four of us old friends and colleagues descended on her (including Doreen Indra, Barbara Harrell-Bond and Effie Voutira), and having not been together for a long time there was a lot of reminiscing. My sense was that while still actively collecting ethnographic data and writing at 98, Elizabeth was thinking much more of her career and oeuvre retrospectively than ever before. I proposed the creation of a new bibliography of her work and she agreed to assist me at a distance. At the onset I was of course aware of the work done on Elizabeth’s output before me. Of these, the first created was a bibliography prepared by Dorothy A. Koenig and Lenore D. Ralston. It was first published in 1984 in the Kroeber Anthropological Society Papers volume of that year dedicated to Elizabeth (see Dorothy Koenig and Lenore Ralston 1984 in the bibliography; the volume reference is Glazier et al 1984).
