Abstract

TADEI, Emanuel Mariano. A mestiçagem enquanto um dispositivo de poder e a constituição de nossa identidade nacional. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2002, vol.22, n.4, pp. 2-13. ISSN 1414-9893.

This article intends to analyze the Brazilian racial issue in a foucaultian view. Instead of facing miscegenation as a natural phenomenon, that is, as a result of a Portuguese predisposition to the ethnic mixture, I worked on the supposition that it is a result of a dispositive of power. After describing and analyzing the participation of Psychoanalysis and Arthur Ramos had in it, I raised the problems that he hands us, nowadays, since it imposes us a certain rationality that is present in an indelible way in the Brazilian racial thought.

Keywords : Brazilian racial discourse; miscegenation's dispositive; Discourse Analysis; Psychology and ethnic plurality.
