		Anthropophagy, or Cannibalism has been an enduring topic in the debates which surround human culture.
		Although many reports of anthropophagy have traditionally fallen into the bracket of exocannibalism, it is likely that the number of instances of this type of phenomena would be pretty evenly balanced with those of endocannibalism, for reasons which will be further explored below.
		As a desire to use 'waste material', although anthropophagy is the effect, not the cause of war.

		Anthropophagy, as first conceived by the Brazilian modernist Oswald de Andrade in his 1928 Anthropophagic Manifesto, is an open process of dynamic transformations in which identity is never fixed but always open to transmutations.
		The European view of cannibalism is a taboo practice, which names the other as barbaric, heathen and outside of civilisation; a practice in which the other is constituted through a radical and threatening alterity.
		The cybernetic lexicon itself is replete with a vocabulary of ingestion and digestion: input, number crunching, processing, feedback etc. However, the anthropophagic-cybernetic connection does not rest merely on these lexico-mechanical analogies, but rather on the modality of feeding and eating in an extended cultural sense.

		Anthropophagy is an immensely complex phenomenon bearing multiple meanings which may be applied to art, mythology, politics, psychoanalysis, cultural history, and critical theory.
		Cannibalism meaning the eating by man of human flesh is derived from the word "cannibal" through Spanish mispronunciation of Caribs (ethnic term to describe natives from the Caribbean islands) which became Canibs and eventually cannibals.
		Anthropologists have categorized various types anthropophagy as exophagy, endophagy, autophagy, gastronomic cannibalism, ritual or magic cannibalism, and survival cannibalism.

	Brazil as Exposition
		In this way, anthropophagy helped to overcome the paradox of a movement whose aim was to rediscover Brazil, but whose premises were on the other shore of the Atlantic Ocean.
		Nonetheless, it should be emphasized that the omnipresence of anthropophagy in Brazilian cultural history is related to the successful coping with the impasse of both objectification and self-definition through a foreigner’s perspective.
		Rather, it can be better understood as follows: anthropophagy is a strategy employed in contexts of political, economic and cultural asymmetry by the ones that are located in a position of inferiority.

		As Robert Stam (1989) has argued, anthropophagy is a form of intertextuality, yet one which is set in a context of neocolonial cultural domination.
		While the tendency within the field of Luso-Brazilian studies has been to view anthropophagy from a national perspective, Erdmute Wenzel White has emphasized the movement's debt to Surrealism and Dada, which she feels provide the anthropophagist with creative processes capable of producing the emancipation of art.
		Stam and Shohat (1994) are aware of this delicate balance between Brazil and the Continent and have observed that Tropicalism fuses aesthetic internationalism with political nationalism, the folkloric with the industrial.

		From Anthropophagy to Brasilia: Brazil 1920-1950 was the title of an extraordinary exhibition dedicated to Brazil’s historical avant-gardes that took place between October 2000 and January 2001 at the Instituto Valenciano de Arte Moderno (IVAM) in Valencia, Spain.
		Due to a truly symptomatic historical recurrence, Anthropophagy (cannibalism) has become a cliché and a leitmotif in Brazil that has mobilized around, and continues to do so, some of the decisive questions raised by the irruption and formation of its current artistic and visual culture (1).
		Between the two extremes of that period, between Anthropophagy and Brasilia, to use the expression in the show’s title, architecture maintained a fidelity that was so fertile to conceptual and stylistic options, that it winded up being recognized as a crucial component of the image of Brazil.

		The 'Blood libel' that accused Jews of eating Christian children is an example.
		William Arens, author of The Man-Eating Myth: Anthropology and Anthropophagy (New York : Oxford University Press, 1979; ISBN 0195027930), downplays the truth of reports of cannibalism and argues that the description by one group of people of another people as cannibals is an ideological and rhetorical device to establish moral superiority over them.
		Arens bases most of his thesis on ridiculing the accuracy of Hads Staden's pedo of being prisoner among the Tupi.

		Even the practice of scalping was based upon a belief that, by securing that part of the enemy's body nearest to the brain, the captor came into possession of the mental faculties of the deceased, and thus added so much more to his own mental and physical power.
		Anthropophagy, or cannibalism, so widely distributed through the tropics, rested on the same conception.
		Custom ruled; the decisions of tribal councils and oracular utterances determined the questions at issue.

		For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed."
		Cannibalism, or more precisely, anthropophagy, is an age-old tradition that, judging by a constant stream of flabbergasted news reports, is far from extinct.
		Much-debated indications exist that our Neanderthal, Proto-Neolithic, and Neolithic (Stone Age) predecessors were cannibals.
