así sea por oposición

Portuguese translation: Ainda que seja por oposição

Spanish to Portuguese translations [PRO]
Art/Literary - Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / texto sobre arte na América Latina
Spanish term or phrase: así sea por oposición
Frase:

La cultura en América Latina ha padecido una neurosis de la identidad que no está curada por completo, y de la que este texto mismo forma parte, así sea por oposición.

Sinceramente por mais voltas que dê, não consigo perceber o sentido desta última parte da frase. Será que alguém me pode ajudar??

Pt-Pt por favor

In this article, even though it is critical of the neurosis Latin American culture is suffering, and thus objects to it, the very text of the article is emblematic of the neurosis - thus, even though it is unintentional, or "mesmo sem querer"

assim seja por oposição


Explanation:
assim seja (o texto) por oposição

por oposição (TOUT COURT) é igual em portugues, não se trata de nenhuma frase idiomática nem nada...
