CUNHA, Olívia Maria Gomes da. Introduction: between variation and discontinuity. []. , 24, 2, pp.341-349. ISSN 0873-6561.  https://doi.org/10/4000/etnografica.8828.

This introduction seeks to explore two themes that guide the making of recent ethnographies on the Caribbean socialities. By introducing the four articles of a dossier dedicated to the analysis of material practices, of the creation and the circulation of artifacts of knowledge enmeshed in distinct relations, the introduction examines the effects of the uses of notions such as variation and discontinuity orienting other alternative perspectives of analysis. Their use offers possibilities toward critical dialogues with the Caribbean intellectual traditions, and the so-called the “anthropologies of the Caribbean”.
