Title: Quilombos e políticas de reconhecimento: o caso do Campinho da Independência
Abstract: The political recognition of the community of Campinho da Independência is enunciated in the interstices of the everyday situations, possibly acquiring a diversity of meanings, depending on the place of the speaker.I present the ritual of the touristic experience as a privileged locus of enunciation to think the relation between the subjects that, involved with the problem of construction of the cultural difference, produce new categorizations about the "culture" and the social identity of the group.This ritual is understood as a metaphor of the representation of the mediation and of the conversion of meanings that are currently observed in Campinho, in face of the social-historical transformations in which the community is involved.
