The relationship between anthropology and human rights has had a development characterized by conceptual and theoretical clashes. Nevertheless, in everyday practice the interaction between both fields has been mutually beneficial because of their shared ethical commitments and the commonality of the interest in the defense and protection of those rights. The text argues that, beyond philosophical debate, the diverse anthropological disciplines and their basic dedication to the study of alterity make them ideal instruments to implement effective systems for the protection of human rights in specific cultural contexts.
