The Research Notebook The Institutionality of Culture and Sociocultural Changes brings together the initial thoughts and considerations of Néstor García Canclini’s tenure as the holder of Olavo Setubal Chair of Art, Culture and Science (2020/2021). This publication offers a compilation of the speeches from the inauguration ceremony, in addition to the research proposals planned for the period. Canclini urges us to rethink the classical notion of cultural institutions, considering the tension with the new forms of production, intermediation and access that digital devices promote. What is the role of these institutions in the development of a citizenship guided by interculturality, by the rights and duties of coexistence?
