Felipe Kamaroski is an Anthropologist with the State Government of Paraná and a member of the Brazilian Anthropological Association. As an indigenist and researcher among the Kaingang people of southern Brazil, he studies the relationship between state justice systems and indigenous systems of justice. Drawing on ethnographic work with incarcerated indigenous individuals and those released from prison, his research explores how crime is understood across different cultural contexts and examines the connections between longstanding state violence and contemporary institutional politics concerning territory, food sovereignty, access to justice, and human rights.
