description | In the article it is performed a historical analysis of the main contributions of Anthropology to the study of the man-nature problem using different bibliographical sources. It is carried out an overview of the ecological perspective in Anthropology; the Structuralism and Symbolism, as well as the contributions of the systemic approach. Then, the cognitive symbolic approach is analyzed reaching to the Symbolic Ecology. Inside the political approach, conceptions of the World-System are collected and the three paths of the Political Ecology are described: The Neoliberalism, the Culturalist, represented by the Ecofeminism, and the Ecosocialism. Later, the contributions of Anthropology to the more specific field of farming production are described, until reaching the Agroecology and the Ethnoecology. Finally, it is pointed out the interest of the recent sociological and anthropological streams of social emancipation in order to understand the social movements of alternative ecological production and the recovery of traditional farming methods. |

En el artículo se realiza un análisis histórico de las principales aportaciones de la Antropología en el estudio del problema hombre-naturaleza a partir de diversas fuentes bibliográficas. Se realiza un recorrido de la perspectiva ecológica en Antropología; el Estructuralismo y el Simbolismo, así como las aportaciones del enfoque sistémico. Posteriormente analiza la perspectiva simbólica cognitiva llegando a la Ecología Simbólica. Ya dentro de la perspectiva política recoge las concepciones del Sistema Mundial y describe las tres líneas de la Ecología Política: el Neoliberalismo, el enfoque culturalista, representado por el Ecofeminismo, y el Ecosocialismo. Posteriormente relata las aportaciones de la Antropología al campo más concreto de la producción agrícola, hasta llegar a la Agroecología y la Etnoecología. Finalmente, señala el interés de las recientes corrientes sociológicas y antropológicas de la emancipación social, para entender los movimientos sociales de la producción ecológica alternativa y de la recuperación de las agriculturas tradicionales.
