Caring For Society And Nature On Tropical Coasts

Maritime Anthropology (Brazil articles) Antonio Carlos Diegues (ed.) 2005

From 2000 to 2008, the Ethnographic Institute and Nupaub, a center of excellence at the University of Sao Paulo on human populations and humid tropical areas in Brazil, have worked together to develop a series of mini-cursos (short courses) and post-graduate seminars (inter-disciplinary, applied science, cultural ecology seminars).  Almost none of the critical Nupaub readings, however, are yet available in English.

 

The Ethnographic Institute would like to begin to fill this void, to make several books which have already been translated into English known to wider audiences (Marine Protected Areas and Artisanal Fisheries in Brazil; Culinaria Caicara Cooking). There are also translations into Portuguese of unique ethnographic studies written originally in English, for instance by Emilio Willems, of A Ilha Buzios, a Caicara Community in Southern Brazil.

 

Below is a list of titles in Portuguese which can be acquired through the Ethnographic Institute or Nupaub at U. of Sao Paulo.
