International audienceThis paper discusses the concept of organizational anthropophagy, a metaphor describing a unique relationship between identity and otherness. To show how this perspective contributes to understandings of diversity and difference, I read anthropophagy against psychoanalytic discussions of abjection, a process where individuals are simultaneously fascinated by, drawn towards, and horrified by their relationships to outside "others". Stemming from the global periphery, anthropophagy provides a way to combine psychoanalytic with sociological views of otherness. I stress the implications of the anthropophagic approach for organizational theorizing of the "monstrous", placing monstrousness against the political economic context of post-coloniality and discussing its relations with diversity and difference

“…The Tropicália movement cut across cultural forms, including the poetry of Augosto de Campos (e.g. Perrone, 1990), and visual art of Hélio Oiticica, with its biggest impact in the musical album Panis et Circencis by Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil. Often compared to Andrade's Manifesto, Panis et Circensis alluded to the spectacles of ancient Rome to parody the military regime.…”

I propose the concept of anthropophagy as a metaphor for understanding Brazilian organizational knowledge, contributing to post-colonial thought, and better understanding issues of cultural mix and hybridity essential to contemporary social theory. After describing the diverse meanings of anthropophagy, I outline three important moments in Brazilian history where the concept has been central to understanding intercultural mixture. First, anthropophagy was an important component of indigenous reactions to intercultural contact, providing a ritual mechanism by which to negotiate identity. This identity crafting mechanism became revived in the 20th century modernist and tropicalist periods, where it took on symbolic functions in positioning modern Brazilian identity with respect to both European and indigenous roots. More recently, anthropophagy has entered the organizational literature, providing novel ways to make sense of key concepts in the discipline. I discuss three central issues around which anthropophagy contributes to contemporary theory, those of otherness, authenticity, and corporality. Keywords anthropophagic movement, Brazil, international management, latin america, organizational anthropology, organizational culture, post-colonial theory, subaltern studiesThe origin of cannibalism is the origin of culture. (Sahlins 1983: 72) Anthropophagy, or the cannibalistic appropriation of cultural forms, 1 has been described as 'the most potent and durable metaphor is modern Brazilian culture' (Dunn, 2010). Resurging at key moments in Brazilian history, this metaphor has served to make sense of the hybridity, corporality,

“…In the 1960s anthropophagic ideas ware taken up by the Tropica´lia or Tropicalismo movement. Tropicalismo acted as ''efficacious divulgator'' of the anthropophagic perspective, as the singer and writer Caetano Veloso (1997) Perrone, 1990).…”

Challenges for implementing a global mental health agenda in Brazil: The “silencing” of culture

Since its emergence in 2007, Global Mental Health has been a growing and polemic area of study, research and practice in mental health worldwide. Despite having a significant endogenous academic production and innovative policy experiences, the Brazilian mental health field and its actors make few references to, and scarcely dialogue with, the Global Mental Health agenda. This article explores an aspect of this divergence between Global Mental Health initiatives and public mental health care in Brazil regarding the role of culture within mental health policies and practices. Our hypothesis is that part of this difficulty can be attributed to the low relevance of the cultural dimension for the Brazilian mental health field, here referred to as the “silencing of culture.” We examine the possible historical roots of this process with reference to theories of “anthropophagy” and “cultural uniformity” in the context of Brazilian cultural matrices. We then describe two recent experiences in public mental health care that incorporate cultural competence through the work of community health workers and the example of community therapy. We argue that the development of cultural competence can be decisive in enabling an improved dialogue between research and practice in Brazilian mental health and global mental health initiatives.
