Abstract

The essay “Sobre a descolonização e seus correlatos” (“On decolonization and its correlates”) comes at a most opportune moment. And it is not just because it coincides with the 50th anniversary of “25 de abril” (April 25) – a milestone of decolonization and the end of the Portuguese Empire. There are other circumstances that make this text up-to-date and even timeless. In recent years, for example, the themes of colonization and decolonization have grown within Brazilian social science, in particular Anthropology. Wilson Trajano Filho, who is a pioneer of African Studies in Brazil, as well as having trained several generations of anthropologists, has played an important role in this debate. His essay will therefore be more than welcome among all those interested in this topic.
