A estrutura sacrificial do compadrio: uma ontologia da desigualdade?

This study criticizes a conjunction between symbolic and functional analysis of godparenthood. It is shown that god-parenthood is not only a religious or kinship institution and that it does not reinforce inequalities that supposedly pre-exist it, but rather it is a structure that generates inequali...
