Abstract

This project presents a proposal for Research Internships Abroad linked to the FAPESP Scientific Initiation scholarship (Sage Process: 2014/12748-2). The aim is to undertake a four-month research internship at the Laboratoire d'Anthropologie des Mondes Contemporains (LAMC) of the Université Libre de Bruxelles in order to get in touch with the bibliographic collections and theoretical production of the institution's researchers. The main objective of this research internship is the deepening of the theoretical part of the research project carried out in Brazil. The secondary objectives are: (1) the reflection about the relationship between indigenous peoples and the State, (2) the expertise on the latest discussions in Anthropology of Development and (3) the deepening in the field of development theory, particularly in the critical aspects worked by the Anthropology of Institutions.
