Krotz, Esteban, The Production of Anthropology in the South: Characteristics, Perspectives, Lines of Thought
In this article Krotz approaches the origin of anthropology as a scientific discipline which tries to understand the cultural diversity amidst a civilization which has tried to destroy this diversity. He analyses theoretical paradigms which applied during diverse historical moments, characterizes the peculiar traits of Latin American anthropology, particularly the one which refers to the fact that the phenomena it approaches is not something foreign to the scholars, but that they themselves are unavoidably part of what they are studying. From this perspective, Krotz analyzes the consequences of this Latin American trait on scientific production. He concludes that there is a need of specifically studying the great variety of anthropologies produced in this region, so as to outline a still blurry local profile based on their own antecedents. - Hits: 1390

Clarac de Briceño, Jacqueline, Statutes and Cognitive Characteristics of Anthropology in Venezuela
The author presents a detailed analysis of the evolution of anthropology in Venezuela during this century. She identifies two great stages: one before the decade of the fifties characterized by the positivism cultivated by some scholars influences by European thought, particularly form Germany and France; and the second one, as of the foundation of the Venezuelan Institute of Scientific Research (1952) and other anthropology and sociology schools, marked by a boasian and functionalist influence. Clarac makes a critical revision of current anthropological work in Venezuela and suggest the need to return to field work and to “make” anthropology from the South. That is, from this region’s current and historical reality.
