In this article I analyse nostalgia as a socio-anthropological category. Nostalgia is here interpreted as a social and cultural phenomenon which was formed from 17th until 21st century, being ...transformed from a disease to a product on the contemporary market. Hence, nostalgia appears to be a “meta-concept”: a transtemporal category that allows for variation over time and place while recognising sufficient shared characteristics to talk about the same thing throughout. Dealing with nostalgia as a socio-anthropological issue, I will here elaborate on a certain typology of it, claiming that it can be seen as: 1. a disease, 2. a state, emotion and way of remembering, and 3. an experience. Finally, I will especially point to the importance of the issue of nostalgia in contemporary discourses on society and culture.
O ensaio epistemológico objetiva informar sobre contribuições das críticas pós-colonial e decolonial para a contextualização do conceito de cultura na Epidemiologia. O pensamento pós-colonial, ...partindo do questionamento ao imperialismo britânico, e o decolonial, de origem latino-americana, dizem da persistência da colonialidade na cultura e na ciência. Com dimensão simbólica abrangendo sentidos diversos que vão da conservação à mudança e engendram hierarquizações sociais que favorecem a opressão, cultura é conceito polissêmico com trânsito interdisciplinar desde a Antropologia. Delineiam-se no texto perspectiva e forma do olhar, enfatizando-se a opção pelo ensaio; apresenta-se o conceito de cultura; indicam-se nos pensamentos pós-colonial e decolonial relações com a cultura relevantes para a Epidemiologia; aborda-se o uso do conceito na interdisciplinaridade entre Antropologia e Epidemiologia, resgatando-se propostas próximas da reflexão sobre colonização; sintetizam-se potenciais contribuições em apreciação epistêmica sobre Epidemiologia e o conceito de cultura. Amarras colonizadoras, como o sentido de dominação da natureza, a subordinação à biomedicina ocidental, o uso de classificações e variáveis forjadas segundo hierarquizações e oposições binarizadas, a desconsideração dos saberes populares, podem ser expostas pelas críticas pós-colonial e decolonial nas bases da Saúde Coletiva, e especialmente na ordenação teórico-conceitual epidemiológica hegemônica formulada segundo padrões culturais estranhos às realidades locais. As críticas pós-colonial e decolonial podem ser reveladoras da presença de racismos científicos e culturais invisibilizados na Epidemiologia.
This epistemological essay aims to inform about contributions of postcolonial and decolonial criticisms to the contextualization of the concept of culture in Epidemiology. The postcolonial, based on the questioning of the British imperialism, and the decolonial thought, of Latin American origin, reveal the persistence of coloniality in culture and science. Culture with its symbolic dimension encompassing diverse meanings ranging from conservation to change and creating hierarchies that favor oppression is a polysemic concept with interdisciplinary motion since Anthropology studies. The text outlines the perspective and shape of the gaze, emphasizing the essay format: the concept of culture is presented; the relation between post- and decolonial thought and culture are indicated as relevant to epidemiology; the use of the concept is approached in the interdisciplinarity between Anthropology and Epidemiology, reviewing proposals close to the reflection on colonization; and the potential contributions in epistemic appreciation on Epidemiology and the concept of culture are summarized. Colonizing ties as the sense of domination of nature, subordination to Western biomedicine, the use of classifications and variables forged according to binarized hierarchization and oppositions, and the disregard of popular knowledge can be exposed by postcolonial and decolonial criticisms in the bases of Collective Health, and especially in hegemonic theoretical-conceptual epidemiological ordering formulated according to cultural patterns foreign to local realities. Postcolonial and decolonial criticisms can reveal the presence of scientific and cultural racism concealed in Epidemiology.
El ensayo epistemológico pretende informar sobre las aportaciones de las críticas poscoloniales y decoloniales para contextualizar el concepto de cultura en Epidemiología. El pensamiento poscolonial, basado en el cuestionamiento del imperialismo británico, y el pensamiento decolonial, de origen latinoamericano, plantean la persistencia de la colonialidad en la cultura y la ciencia. Con una dimensión simbólica que abarca diversos significados que van desde la conservación hasta el cambio y engendra jerarquías sociales que favorecen la opresión, la cultura es un concepto polisémico con tránsito interdisciplinario desde la Antropología. En el texto se esboza la perspectiva y el modo de mirar, enfatizando la opción por el ensayo; se presenta el concepto de cultura; se señalan las relaciones con la cultura relevantes para la Epidemiología en los pensamientos poscolonial y decolonial; se aborda el uso del concepto en la interdisciplinariedad entre Antropología y Epidemiología, recuperando propuestas cercanas a la reflexión sobre la colonización; se sintetizan los potenciales aportes a la apreciación epistémica sobre la Epidemiología y el concepto de cultura. Los lazos colonizadores -como el sentido de dominación de la naturaleza, la subordinación a la biomedicina occidental, el uso de clasificaciones y variables forjadas según jerarquías y oposiciones binarizadas, y la desconsideración de los saberes populares- pueden ser expuestos por la crítica poscolonial y decolonial en las bases de la Salud Colectiva, más específicamente en el marco teórico-conceptual epidemiológico hegemónico formulado según patrones culturales extraños a las realidades locales. Las críticas postcoloniales y decoloniales pueden revelar la presencia de un racismo científico y cultural invisible en la Epidemiología.
This is the first ethnographic study of the farmers and foragers of northeastern Zaire since Colin Turnbull's classic works of the 1960s. Roy Richard Grinker lived for nearly two years among the Lese ...farmers and their long-term partners, the Efe (Pygmies), learned their languages, and gained unique insights into their complex social relations and ethnic identities. By showing how political organization is structured by ethnic and gender relations in the Lese house, Grinker challenges previous views of the Lese and Efe and other farmer-forager societies, as well as the conventional anthropological boundary between domestic and political contexts.
The emerging educational question is at the center of a lively cultural debate that revolves around important questions: what is the role of the school in post-modern society? What is the goal of ...education in the time of globalization? The answer can only be articulated considering the profound transformations that are connoting advanced modernity, in which more and more different conceptions of education and formation coexist, also due to the multicultural and multiethnic character of our society at the beginning of the third millennium.
At this point it must be strongly emphasized that a good education moves from a "holistic" anthropological perspective, where they simultaneously find equilibrium between homo rationalis and homo senties. A model of education united by two perspectives: an emotional thinking and an intelligent feeling.
Concentrated games on the mind, which today are mostly offered in the form of digital and electronic games and called computer games, have actually led to a decrease in children's interest in ...physical games. However, Islamic education has emphasized the importance of play, especially children's games. This article aims to explain anthropological foundations of the physical education of children in Islamic education with an emphasis on the role of physical games. The research was conducted using descriptive-analytical method. The results indicate that the physical education of children in Islamic education has a high status and importance, and therefore certain anthropological foundations can be explained and identified. These basics include the combination of the human child's body and soul and the interaction of the body and soul in each other in the process of child development towards perfection, the gradual growth of the body and soul of the child, and the instrumental role of the body in the cultivation of the soul, which begins from childhood. So, the need for serious attention to educational programs is emphasized on the role of children's physical development. Considering the anthropological foundations in educational programs, in addition to providing children's physical health, provides a platform for the spiritual development of children in the future.
The paper about the transhumanistic era evaluates the new postulates of the philosophical concept of transhumanism and the new possibilities it offers by creating a new posthuman being with a newly ...constructed moral system. Through three thematic units, the work reflects on transhumanistic ideas and the new paradigm of man, which is realized by means of technological and scientific achievements.The first thematic unit discusses the philosophical idea of transhumanism and the philosophical shift made by transhumanist anthropology, especially those proclaimed in transhumanist manifestos. The second part provides an understanding of the means used by technological transhumanism starting by cyborgization and mind uploading. The third part looks at the new moral system brought by the new paradigm of posthuman ethics, which opposes the moral values of Christian anthropology.
