Resumo: According to scholar Fredrik Fahlandar, postmodernism has caused an intellectual identity crisis throughout the humanities. Using his chapter on Postmodern Archaeologies as a guide, this essay attempts to address some of the ways in which archaeology and the other social sciences has actually benefited from the scrutiny of postmodernist criticism, while at the same time maintaining its usefulness and insisting on its ability to avoid a relativistic approach to its research questions. The essay particularly emphasizes archaeology’s on-going relationship to the study of ideology, as both evident within the archaeological record itself and also its influence on the researchers conducting the investigations.

Usando seu capítulo sobre Arqueologias pós-modernas como guia, este ensaio tenta abordar algumas das maneiras pelas quais a arqueologia e as outras ciências sociais realmente se beneficiaram do escrutínio das críticas pós-modernas, enquanto, ao mesmo tempo, mantém sua utilidade e insiste em sua capacidade de evitar uma abordagem relativista de suas questões de pesquisa. O ensaio enfatiza particularmente a relação contínua da arqueologia com o estudo da ideologia, como evidente no próprio registro arqueológico e também sua influência nos pesquisadores que conduzem as investigações.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2020-06-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/oficinadohistoriador/article/view/3672710.15448/2178-3748.2020.1.36727Oficina do Historiador; Vol. 13 No. 1 (2020); e36727Oficina do Historiador; Vol. 13 Núm. 1 (2020); e36727Oficina do Historiador; v. 13 n. 1 (2020); e367272178-374810.15448/2178-3748.2020.1reponame:Oficina do Historiadorinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSenghttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/oficinadohistoriador/article/view/36727/19711Copyright (c) 2020 Oficina do Historiadorhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessO’Donnell, John Gabriel2020-06-14T02:07:14Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/36727Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/oficinadohistoriadorPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/oficinadohistoriador/oai||tatyana.maia@pucrs.br2178-37482178-3748opendoar:2020-06-14T02:07:14Oficina do Historiador - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
