URIBE, Carlos Alberto. MIMESIS Y PAIDEIA ANTROPOLÓGICA EN COLOMBIA. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2005, n.1, pp.67-78. ISSN 1900-5407.

This essay discusses the development of Colombian Anthropology from the perspective of university academic training. The key concepts used here are mimesis, paradigm, and research programs. While asking for the presence of great masters in the development of Colombian anthropological thinking, and the relative absence of names who deserve this classification, the essay explores the relationships between the local anthropological community and the metropolitan anthropologies, and their influences in Colombia. The argument maintains that local anthropological thinking is only validated in so far as it serves to mediate foreign research and theory, and thus, local anthropologists are best understood as the local translators of the great masters of the global anthropological community.
