RESTREPO, Eduardo. Singularidades y asimetrías en el campo antropológico mundial. Avá [online]. 2007, n.10, pp. 9-22. ISSN 1851-1694.

The normative understandings of the discipline have the tendency to obliterate the multiplicity of genealogies, trajectories and configurations of the existing world anthropologies. The singularities are blurred and assumed to be derivate from a set of disciplinary paradigms that are naturalized and rarely examined. In this article propose some theoretical considerations about the relevance of understanding these singularities as well as about the power relationships that structure the conditions of existence and visibility within and across the anthropologies of the world.
