  • More about Anthropology, Nationalism and Colonialism: Mendes Correia and the Porto School of Anthropology


The Porto School of Anthropology and its mentor, Mendes Correia, are explored in this book, which offers a broader comparative analysis of colonial empires, knowledge of origins, ethnic identity, and cultural practices, while considering the impact of nationalism on discourse and scientific and political practices.

Format: Hardback
Length: 372 pages
Publication date: 10 March 2023
Publisher: Berghahn Books


The Porto School of Anthropology, led by Mendes Correia (1888-1960), played a significant role in the history of European anthropology. This book delves into the work of Correia and offers a broader comparative analysis that goes beyond a Portuguese focus. It examines the colonial empire, knowledge of origins, ethnic identity, and cultural practices, with a particular emphasis on the influence of nationalism, which was associated with an ethno-racial paradigm. The analysis recognizes the impact of nationalism on discourse, scientific practices, and political practices.
