Resumo(s)
In this paper, we will analyze how anthropological thinking, in the last twenty years, has put the conceptual categories of Culture and Nature into radical questioning. Nature was âdenaturalizedâ and deemed as a social construction that was specific to the history of Western world. But to avoid the alternative between nature and culture one should develop a ânon-dualistâ approach and, in this sense, we will then consider Tim Ingoldâs works. According to the British anthropologist, the nature and culture divide is usually the outcome of an assumption recurrent in anthropology, that according to which our cultural frames determine our perception of outside world. For Ingold, phenomenological thinking reversed the ontological priorities of Western rationalism.
