Popis: The author reviews the research methodologies that relate Anthropology and Law based in her experience as a researcher in the area of property relations. The complementarity between these two disciplines broadly contributes to the understanding of conflicts and realities of complex ownership-establishing a relationship between property and community—, but is not exempt from tension. As the author shows, Legal Anthropology poses a critical relationship with Law when Legal approaches show intransigence vis-à-vis anthropological peculiarities. Abuse of Legal fictions reveals also a source for Anthropological misunderstandings.
