Correct Transcript:

All through the 1990s, my collaborative researches with their academic world mostly oriented towards the documentations of their law and customary lanterns system in a dynamic perspective, the anthropological proof needed for the negotiation process. Furthermore, I participated for a while as an expert anthropologist. And alongside the academic representatives at the negotiating tables with the representatives of the federal and provincial governments, surely these tables? Has have a tremendous ethnographic potential, I must say, however, that I gradually became disappointed, disillusioned by the engrande nature of the colonial and unequal relation of power that occurred around the negotiating table by the paternalistic and Neo colonial attitude of the state representatives towards the academic.
