Os direitos humanos, a antropologia e a sobreculturalidade

Resumen

This article approaches the process of overculturality as an equalizing element between Anthropology and Human Rights, when it seeks self-determination, visibility and empowerment, generating a cultural transformation in the course of the process of contact between distinct cultures. This is a discussion over cultural relativism, in so far as there are clashes between the right to culture and the right to life, whose results seek to prevail in addition to mutual respect and tolerance, the adaptation and resilience as a result of this transculturation process. In this way, we will use as an example the case ofthe indigenous communities PITAKAJÁ, Fortaleza (CE) - Brazil. It is when the process of overculturality comes on the scene through tools such as education, in an attempt to form indigenous people capable of being active subjects in society and capable of acquiring an active political voice
