Art, Anthropology and Religion. Contribution to In Conversation “Secrets Under the Skin” (by Jill Flanders Crosby)
Poder, história e coetaneidade: os lugares do colonialismo na antropologia sobre a África
O presente artigo toma como base a tese clássica de Johannes Fabian sobre a política do tempo na representação antropológica tendo em vista revisar criticamente a carreira da coetaneidade na produção antropológica sobre a África. Ele parte da antropologia feita sob o colonialismo, com foco no estrutural-funcionalismo britânico, e chega à antropologia do colonialismo que desponta nos anos 90, passando pela forte disjunção temporal imposta à disciplina pelas independências africanas, que começam a florescer no final dos anos 50. Observa-se nessa trajetória um amadurecimento teórico acerca do impacto formativo duradouro do poder colonial nas sociedades africanas. Como conclusão, problematizo a prescrição de Fabian de “um encontro real com o tempo do outro” ao recorrer a debates contemporâneos sobre a condição pós-colonial em África. Destaco assim a natureza ambígua e elusiva da temporalidade subalterna e defendo a necessidade de uma abordagem mais etnograficamente atenta às vicissitudes da temporalização periférica
Remapping Our Mindset: Towards a Transregional and Pluralistic Outlook
The future of the study of religion/s must be actively envisioned and pursued. In the aftermath of the deconstruction of ‘religion’ and the idea of ‘secularization’ as imbued with a Western teleology, it is necessary to rethink and reconfigure the study of religion/s against a global horizon. In this essay I propose that we should move out of the unproductive Religious Studies-Theology binary and frame our work in the midst of the humanities. A new mindset is needed for scholarly research on religion, and to achieve this I point at the new vistas arising from a transregional and pluralistic outlook

Conflations and gaps. A response to Nicholas Wolterstorff’s ‘toleration, justice, and dignity’
This contribution responds to Nicholas Wolterstorff’s argument for religious toleration and freedom of religion respectively that he develops in his paper ‘Toleration, justice and dignity’. I argue that Wolterstorff conflates religious toleration and the right to freedom of religion, which has problematic implications. Moreover, I reveal gaps in his justification of the special worth or dignity of human persons, and, derived from this, freedom of religion
