Abstract

Since the fourties, Brazilian sociologists and anthropologist adopted theconcept of syncretism in their studies on Afro-Brazilian religions. At the end ofthe seventies, however, this concept was abandoned after being criticized as partof ruling classes’ ideology, and as a tool of cultural imposition. Among of themain contributions of Pierre Sanchis’ work, his proposal of rehabilitation of thisconcept stands out. This article examines some aspects of Sanchis’ discussion onsyncretism.
