The impact of the Humanities in general and Anthropology in particular has a t

2. Sequenciando a genética de populações : por uma etnografia a partir do laboratório
Esta monografia é o resultado de reflexões proporcionadas por incursões de caráter etnográfico empreendidas, principalmente, em um dos principais grupos de pesquisa do Brasil na área de genética de populações. A proposta deste trabalho consiste em entender que grupo é este e (re)construir alguns de seus aspectos para que se faça inteligível este

3. Antropologia dental : traços não-métricos de uma amostra brasileira / Dental anthropology : non-metric traits of a Brazilian sample
The non-metric traits in tooth morphology, for their excellent preservation, and inter-population variation, immune from selection pressure, are known to be one of the major sources of observation for researchers who analyze human variation and its relationship to the populations biological history. In a forensic context, the knowledge of the local morpholog

4. Tiempo de estudiar, tiempo de trabajar: la conceptualización de la infancia y la participación de los niños en la vida productiva como experiencia formativa
Many anthropological studies establish that childhood, as a social category, is an historical and socio-cultural product associated with a biological development process. From these positions it is possible to consider the human child incorporation into society, considering time as sociality parameter. This conceptualization allows discussion about the moder

5. Consumo alimentar doméstico em populações caboclas assentadas em três diferentes ambientes amazônicos: uma análise comparativa / Household food consumption in Caboclo populations settled in three different Amazonian environments: a comparative analysis
The Amazon has been the scene of numerous discussions about the environment´s role in the structuring of human societies. Until recently, in the majority of the discussions about the nature of the environmental constraints in the Amazon, the choice of single limiting factors has been a constant. In these discussions, the Caboclo societies are very important

6. Representações sociais da tuberculose: um estudo sócio-antropológico
This thesis proposes a reflection on the process of exclusion of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in a region of Itaquera BHU (Basic Health Unit), in São Paulo. We assumed that the disease and its cure constitute a complex phenomenon biological, psychological, sociological and cultural dimensions. We believe that adherence to treatment and the healing p

8. Biotechnology, State and Power : the case CBA-Manaus / Biotecnologia, Estado e Poder na Amazonia : o caso CBA-Manaus
The goal of this research is to study the events surrounding the creation of the Brazilian Molecular Ecology Program for the Sustainable Use of Biodiversity in the Amazonia (PROBEM) and the Center for Biotechnology in the Amazon (CBA), and the crisis that fell upon those projects. Our main hypothesis is that scientific practices related to genetical informat

9. Estilo e qualidade de vida biológica em San Pedro de Atacama: o que dizem os esqueletos subadultos / Style and quality of life in San Pedro de Atacama: The subadult skeletons evidence
A região do Deserto de Atacama, norte do Chile, possui condições propícias para a conservação arqueológica. Uma grande quantidade de esqueletos ali bem preservados vem permitindo um intercâmbio rico entre estudos bioantropológicos e arqueológicos. Dentro desse contexto, o presente estudo concentra-se nos esqueletos humanos subadultos de San Pedro d

10. "Variabilidade biológica entre sambaquieiros: Um estudo de morfologia dentária" / "Biological variability between sambaquis populations by discrete dental analysis"
Estudos arqueológicos realizados em sambaquis fluviais sugerem proximidade cultural entre estes e os sambaquis litorâneos. No entanto, existem poucos trabalhos que abordam as relações biológicas e os processos microevolutivos destes sambaquieiros, mesmo por que coleções osteológicas de sambaquieiros fluviais são conquistas recentes da arqueologia na

11. Adaptive Strategies of Two Caboclos Populations (Pará, Brazil) to the Estuarine and Seasonal Floodplain Ecosystems: a comparative analysis / "Estratégias adaptativas de duas populações caboclas (Pará) aos ecossistemas de várzea estuarina e estacional: uma análise comparativa".
A comparative study of the biological well being of two Amazonian caboclo populations situated in the Amazon Basin, in two different ecosystems (seazonal and estuarine várzeas), was undertaken. The main objective was to evaluate if the basin typology proposed for the Amazon region (Sioli 1984), based on the kind of water (clear, white, black), could explain
