Resumo
In despite of recent and dizzying popularization of the concept of African diaspora in the national context, we have rarely find in Brazilian academic productions, any indication or delimitation about the different models, theoretical and methodological perspectives and approaches that constitute the broad field of African Diaspora Studies. In this context, this article is useful for carrying out the following two tasks. The first one concerns a brief reconstruction of the roots and routes from which Brazil and peoples of African origin who settled here (voluntary and / or involuntary) were enrolled and re-enrolled, through a contingent relationship, in the African diaspora. The second task has as main objective to present to the Brazilian public a qualified set of discussions around this important concept, taking into account, on the one hand, divergent theoretical positions, including specific approaches in areas of knowledge (literary criticism, history, sociology, anthropology) and, on the other hand, contributions from different regions of the world and in different contexts (Americas, Caribbean, Africa, Europe and Asia).
