Keywords:

legal anthropology, multijuridism, Guarani cosmology, indigenous territory, land without evil

Abstract

This article proposes a brief excursion into the ethnological literature, a criticism of generalizing theories and asymmetrical conceptual constructions in intercultural relations. It includes an analysis of land concept as a private property and the cosmological bases of the Guarani, with the main objective to identify the origins of a world-perspective-based conflict. Legal anthropology is also presented as a possibility to critically understand the different forms of apprehension of the legal phenomenon and the hegemonic role of its western embodiment -- that is, the Law.
