In view of the new forays from biology into the Humanities, this book aims not only to demonstrate the inconsistencies of the theory of evolution in addressing cultural dynamics but also to offer an alternative that begins from a resumption of the dialogue between anthropology and historical materialism in which dialectics reintroduces itself to anthropology from different premises and the role of symbolic language within materialism is reevaluated.

Fernando Haddad, graduated in law, M.A. in economics and Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of São Paulo, Professor of Political Theory, was the previous Minister of Education and then Mayor of São Paulo, and is now Minister of Finance in Brazil. He has published Work and Language for the Renewal of Socialism (Azougue Editorial, 2004), among others.
