Abstract

This postdoctoral research aims to contribute to the thematic project conceptually and methodologically. Conceptually, it aims to explore the criticisms raised by an anthropology interested in life/nature that has been thinking of the humanities and non-humanities as humanities and non-humanities as entanglements between species, forms and worlds, based on what has been worlds, from what has been defined as "anthropology of life", "anthropology beyond the human", "naturezascultures", "posthumanism", "multi-species ethnography", among other terms. Ethnographically, the project is open to articulate one or more of these elements in specific research. To this end, methodologically methodologically, proposals supported by empirical research capable of thinking about the empirical research capable of thinking about the composition of collectives and their forms of creation in their multispecies multi-species dimension, in the face of the violent changes that their territories have been experiencing. their territories. The research proposal may include work in the field of ethnology, studies of traditional communities, Afro-Brazilian collectives and quilombola quilombola communities, as well as studies on human-animal relations and related areas.
