Anthropology and Childhood. From Research Teams to the Development of Teaching and Learning Spaces in the Buenos Aires Area (Argentina) (original) (raw)

An interdisciplinary experience in anthropology and education: memory, academic project and political background

This article constructs the trajectory of the introduction of the discipline Anthropology and Education in the Graduate Program in Education (PPGE) at PUC-Rio. The author introduced the course at the end of the 1980s. The text presents several considerations concerning the field of anthropology, defending anthropological studies as an approach to interdisciplinarity between this discipline and numerous others, particularly education. It then emphasizes the political and academic framework in which pedagogy graduate courses were created, such as the Institute of Advanced Studies in Education (IESAE) of the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV), and the PPGE/ PUC-Rio. Finally, it reports the experiences lived by the author and her peers that helped construct the memory of the PPGE/PUC-Rio, focusing on both the relationship between anthropology and education and the research and production experiences of the program.

From Research Teams to the Development of Teaching and Learning Spaces in the Buenos Aires Area (Argentina)

2012

Au cours des dernieres decennies en Argentine, l’enfance est devenue un champ legitime de recherche en Anthropologie. Le travail continu des chercheurs locaux, ainsi que la croissance des equipes de recherche, ont rendu possible la creation d’espaces pour l’enseignement de ce domaine au sein des universites nationales. Dans cet article, nous analysons ces espaces encadres dans la formation d’etudes superieures en anthropologie, au sein de quatre universites publiques de la ville et de la province de Buenos Aires. L’observation des plans d’etudes met en evidence, d’une part, la grande profusion des questions qui concernent directement et indirectement les enfants et l’enfance, et, d’autre part, la revendication du potentiel de l’anthropologie pour denaturaliser l’enfance, tout en mettant en avant les approches historiques et ethnographiques.
