| English abstract | The purpose of this paper is to evaluate critically the latest general review of the field of the anthropology of religion practiced in Brazil and which was published in the anthology Horizons of the Social Sciences in Brazil (Martins and Duarte 2010). One of the main points that we highlight for discussion in this article is the effect of the homogenization of this field of research in Brazil as it is promoted by the review under scrutiny. This equalization passes over a significant part of the work done in the North and Northeast of Brazil, leaving it invisible, and hence affecting, more fundamentally, the evaluation of the state of the area of research. In a response, we change the focus of analysis and reverse the map (turn it up side down). Taking the literature produced in the North and the Northeast as the focus of our reflection, we identify some "local agenda" that actually are in dialogue with, and participates in, the contemporary national and international agendas. In conclusion, both as an ethnographic area and as an academic contribution to the literature, the North and the Northeast distinctively contribute significantly to the national and international field of the anthropology of religion |
| Portuguese abstract | A proposta deste artigo é colocar em perspectiva crítica a última recessão realizada sobre a antropologia da religião brasileira publicada na coletânea Horizontes das Ciências Sociais no Brasil (Martins e Duarte 2010). Um dos pontos principais que abrimos para o debate neste artigo é o efeito uniformizador do campo de pesquisa que a recessão em tela promove, tornando invisível a produção norte-nordestina e por consequência, e mais fundamentalmente, a própria área de pesquisa. Nesta oportunidade, mudamos o eixo da análise e invertermos o mapa, olhando para o nosso campo de atuação acadêmico a partir da região Norte e Nordeste, identificamos algumas "agendas locais" que na realidade dialogam intensamente e compõem contemporaneamente as agendas nacional e internacional |
