Resumen
PEREIRO, Xerardo. From anthropology to applied anthropology or the affirmation of the discipline in Northern Portugal. Etnográfica [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.2, pp.425-440. ISSN 0873-6561.
The difference between anthropologists and other science professional’s lies less in its subject matter and method than in its place in the economic process of production. From this perspective - a political economy of science -, I want to reflect on the process of expansion and assertion of anthropology (applied and implied) in Northern Portugal, from the late 1990s. I propose a reflection on my own biographical experience, covering cases from the University Fernando Pessoa (UFP) and the University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro (UTAD). My perspective is that of the institutionalization of anthropology in Northern Portugal, regarding teaching, research and intervention. The text illustrates how different institutional processes lead to the development of different anthropologies, to a greater or lesser centrality of the academic offer and different public and social roles.
