RESUMEN Desde su formación como disciplina científica la antropología fue funcional a la episteme moderna. Ya que la modernidad suponía la des-estructuración de las relaciones tradicionales, la antropología se encargó de hacer un catálogo de las “rarezas” que estaban “desapareciendo”. Se pretende mostrar cómo en el actual contexto posmoderno re-definido por la revitalización de las tradiciones, la disciplina se ha enfrentado a la formación de nuevos objetos teóricos prorrumpiendo la necesidad de pensar estrategias metodológicas alternativas. Valga anotar que el texto está cruzado por la premisa de que estos cambios han sido consecuencia, no de una mejor aproximación al objeto de estudio, sino a reacomodos de orden económico-político. ABSTRACT Since its consolidation as scientific discipline, the anthropology has been functional to modern episteme. In the theoretical realm, modernity supposes the dis-fragmentation of inner social relations in rural-local communities. Taking for granted this evidence, anthropology made its object of study those societies which were considered as in a process of disappear. It’s the purpose of this paper show how in the actual postmodern context, defined by the revitalization of traditions the anthropology has produced news objects of study leading its theoretical production to formulate news methodologies. Its important to say this paper had been wrote with the tint of this news changes have been produce no for a better approach but as consequences of political and economical changes.
