Abstract

Este artigo aborda o conceito de interculturalidade nas humanidades enquanto movimento, comunicação e dinâmica, com o objetivo de discutir as suas consequências pragmáticas no mundo acadêmico e na sociedade. Pretendemos examinar algumas práticas e estratégias de interação cultural, no seu movimento perpétuo, numa indefinição tão perigosa quanto livre de fronteiras. Na diversidade cultural contemporânea, passado e presente, global e local, convergem na análise de conceitos e objetos estreitamente relacionados com as transformações políticas, econômicas, sociais e culturais em curso. A pesquisa científica também é uma área de interseções, de tradução cultural permanente, isto é, de reinterpretação, de reposicionamento de símbolos e sinais dentro das hierarquias existentes. Essa reflexão sobre a interculturalidade nas humanidades favorece interpretações contextualizadas que, na sua incerteza, produzem novas hipóteses, teorias e explicações.
