Ethnification, Ethnogenesis, Intellectual historyAbstract
The analytical framework of ethnogenesis has emerged and consolidated over the past five decades through a fruitful dialogue between Anthropology and History. Investigations stemming from this approach questioned the interpretations that perceived indigenous peoples as carrying an essence of indianness that ended up losing in acculturation processes due to the European colonial advance. In general, the conceptual perspective of ethnogenesis seeks to reconcile: the relativity of analytical categories, the procedural character of the formation and disappearance of social identities, the historicity of the investigated societies and the identification of explicit and implicit tensions in the sphere of relations of domination.
