Abstract

In order to demonstrate how the low investment in systematic work and the accumulated knowledge about the diversity of national reality associated with the attachment by new terminology influence on the Brazilian Intelligence system, this essay presents the work of the German ethnographer Theodor Koch-Grünberg – mixture of traveler, linguist, ethnographer, anthropologist and man of letters – and discusses its place among the constructs of Brazilian Intelligence production.
