Abstract: The essay analyses the relationships between humans and other primates from the perspective of sociocultural anthropology, environmental humanities and primatology in the face of modern-colonial processes. The complexity of these relationships includes evolution, cosmovisions and conceptions of nature and culture, but also themes such as race, gender and environment, among others. However, despite the positive impact of this production, there are large gaps in knowledge about the relationships between humans and other primates in their specific contexts. In this sense, the written and filmic, systemic and anti-systemic narratives stand out, which, in dialogue with other disciplines, can fulfil learning and imagination to reconcile more harmonious ways of sharing the world.
O ensaio analisa as relações entre humanos e outros primatas a partir da antropologia sociocultural, das humanidades ambientais e da primatologia frente aos processos moderno-coloniais. A complexidade dessas relações inclui evolução, cosmovisões e concepções de natureza e de cultura, mas também temas como raça, gênero e ambiente entre outros. Contudo, apesar do valor dessa produção, há grandes lacunas no conhecimento sobre as relações entre humanos e outros primatas em seus contextos específicos. Nesse sentido, destacam-se as narrativas escritas e fílmicas, sistêmicas e anti-sistêmicas, que, em diálogo com outras disciplinas, podem favorecer o aprendizado e a imaginação para conciliarmos formas mais harmônicas de compartilhar o mundo.
