Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pretensión de Boaventura de Sousa Santos en "Justicia entre Saberes", es superar la tradición crítica eurocéntrica. En sus rigurosas líneas argumentales subyacen tres ideas básicas: 1) La comprensión del mundo excede con mucho la comprensión occidental. 2) No hay justicia social global sin justicia cognitiva global. 3) Las transformaciones emancipadoras en el mundo pueden seguir gramáticas y guiones distintos a los desarrollados por la teoría crítica occidental. " Una obra de éxito, desconcertante y juiciosa. Santos nos pide que no pensemos en todos nuestros prejuicios más arraigados. Quiere que veamos el mundo desde abajo, para ver lo "universal" del Sur y no desde el Norte. Esboza un futuro realmente diferente y posible de construir" (Immanuel Wallerstein, Yale University).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El desarrollo del concepto de "epistemologías del Sur" permite a Boaventura de Sousa Santos delinear un universo teórico, metodológico y pedagógico que desafía el dominio del pensamiento eurocéntrico. A partir de los conocimientos nacidos de las luchas sociales y de las experiencias de los pueblos marginalizados que resisten activamente al capitalismo, al colonialismo y al patriarcado, las epistemologías del Sur representan formas de conocimiento que son normalmente desacreditadas, silenciadas o ignoradas por las culturas dominantes del Norte global. Observando el declive de las soluciones sociales y políticas establecidas que pretendían combatir la desigualdad y la discriminación, el autor plantea que solo puede existir una justicia global a través de una transformación epistemológica que garantice una justicia cognitiva global. Este cambio generaría estrategias alternativas de movilización política y de activismo, proporcionando a los grupos sociales oprimidos los medios que les permitan representar el mundo en sus propios términos y transformarlo de acuerdo a sus aspiraciones. "Boaventura de Sousa Santos cuestiona el discurso impuesto desde el Norte y reivindica horizontes alternativos al capitalismo, el colonialismo o la democracia liberal". (Babelia)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Por qué razón, en los últimos dos siglos, la epistemología occidental dominante eliminó de la reflexión el contexto cultural y político de producción y reproducción del conocimiento? ¿Cuáles son las consecuencias de esta descontextualización? ¿Son hoy posibles otras epistemologías? ¿Qué consecuencias tiene el racismo en el ámbito de los saberes al degradar como «inferiores» los conocimientos no occidentales y exagerar como «superiores» los conocimientos occidentales? ¿Cómo se redefinirían los debates globales actuales sobre democracia, crisis ecológica, derechos humanos, liberación de la mujer, economía, etc., si partimos de un diálogo entre iguales basado en la diversidad epistemológica del mundo? Este libro procura dar respuesta a estas preguntas, no conformándose con hacer una mera crítica, sino proponiendo una alternativa conocida como Epistemologías del Sur. En sus capítulos se denuncia la supresión de saberes ("epistemicidio") llevada a cabo a lo largo de los últimos siglos por la norma epistemológica dominante, además de investigar las condiciones para un diálogo horizontal entre conocimientos. Un texto profundamente necesario en un mundo al que le cuesta renunciar a su tradicional occidentalo-centrismo.

Download or read book East Asia, Latin America, and the Decolonization of Transpacific Studies written by Chiara Olivieri and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-03 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collective work, researchers from different disciplines reflect upon the challenges and opportunities of decolonizing transpacific studies through the lens of a few paradigmatic case-studies that deal with connections between East Asia and Latin America. The present book offers a productive problematization of the idea of the transpacific as a concept and a space that is not restricted to a single definition. We defend that the transpacific can instead promote an understanding of agents and experiences that share many common traits that have been generally overlooked by a hegemonic interpretation of knowledge and the relationship between regions.By fostering an environment that not only accepts a plurality of views but that actively looks to accommodate analogous, tangential, and even contradicting approaches to the study of our ideas, we seek a double objective. First, we hope to highlight precisely the richness within the idea of the transpacific, avoiding sticking to any particular conception to it while at the same time acknowledging and owning each of our points of enunciation. Our second objective is part of a constant struggle in the quest towards social and epistemic justice. By adopting this stance of plurality, we can fight against structures of knowledge production and reproduction that willingly or unintentionally instill specific interpretations in ways that inculcate exclusivity. The goal of this book is opening up and expanding the debate regarding transpacific connections, examining the limits and promises of including these experiences within the conceptual paradigm of the Global South, and showcasing different ways of approaching decolonial research to the study of the relationship between East Asia and Latin America.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objetivo de este ensayo es analizar la obra de Boaventura de Sousa Santos, especialmente su comprensión de las sociedades contemporáneas y los desafíos epistemológicos y metodológicos actuales. Mediante una revisión documental de su obra y aportes críticos de otros autores, se distingue su comprensión crítica y utópica de las sociedades actuales, y la necesidad de renovación de los procesos de construcción de conocimiento. Los aportes de este trabajo son, por una parte, integrar la crítica de Santos a la modernidad con su propuesta utópica, y su relación con las epistemologías del sur, la ecología de saberes y la traducción intercultural. Por otra parte, la identificación de estrategias concretas de generación de saberes desde una perspectiva intercultural. Las conclusiones están orientadas hacia una evaluación crítica de la discusión desarrollada con Santos y su relevancia en el contexto de las ciencias sociales latinoamericanas.

Download or read book Decolonizing Liberation Theologies written by Nicolás Panotto and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of this volume marks the Ten Year Anniversary of the Postcolonialism and Religions series. In intersectional and interdisciplinary perspectives, the chapters of this book constitute a complex whole: a volume that does justice to the justice-seeking origins of Latin American Liberation Theology, philosophy, and sociology as it emerged in the 1960s-70s and its development to the present. What drives this book is a common spirit and conviction: Liberation Theologies of the Global South remain relevant to the sociocultural and geopolitical contexts of today, which remain ensconced in the dynamics, exclusions, and resistances that gave rise to Liberation Theologies six decades ago. Today we may speak of interculturality, of borderlands, of in-betweenness, in ways that complicate, confirm, affirm, and interrogate the “underside of history”, and the spaces that are marginalized but de-centered centers of liberation struggle — within, alongside, underneath, over-against societal projects that claim and exclude them, and that represent some of the actual challenges and opportunities to liberation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Anthropocene sustainable development responds to socio-economic, environmental and political crises provoked by humankind due to global warming and the great acceleration of human intervention in ecosystems. This book introduces readers to current debates on sustainable development and to a holistic and multidisciplinary approach. Regional integration and supranational institutions are fundamental for sustainable development. The democratisation of the international system requires a new multilateralism. Global problems of demography, economic ideology of unlimited growth, the prevailing technocratic paradigm, consumerism, problems of waste, fossil fuels, industrial food production, use of fertilisers, water management and climate change are discussed, and the importance of multilateral agreements for security, sustainable peace and development is explored. This planetary crisis may be solved by international cooperation based on the UN sustainable development goals. This book - provides a concise synthesis of the main subjects of sustainable development studies- links development studies to multilateral diplomacy as practised by UN bodies and organisations- gives a new holistic and multidisciplinary approach to environmental and social sciences in the Anthropocene epoch.

Download or read book Molecular Ecology and Conservation Genetics of Neotropical Mammals written by Maximiliano Nardelli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-02 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although all living beings modify their environment, human beings have acquired the ability to do so on a superlative space-time scale. As a result of industrialization and the use of new technologies, the anthropogenic impact has been increasing in the last centuries, causing reductions in the sizes or the extinction of numerous wild populations. In this sense, from the field of conservation genetics, various efforts have been made in recent decades to provide new knowledge that contributes to the conservation of populations, species, and habitats. In this book, we summarize the concrete contributions of researchers to the conservation of the Neotropical mammals using Molecular Ecology techniques. The book is divided into three major sections. The first section provides an up-to-date review of the conservation status of Neotropical mammals, the applications of the molecular markers in its conservation, and the use of non-invasive and forensic genetic techniques. The second and third sections present, respectively, a series of case studies in various species or taxonomic groups of Neotropical mammals.

Download or read book Multiple InJustices written by R. Aída Hernández Castillo and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have witnessed two political transformations that have deeply affected the lives of the indigenous peoples of Latin America. First, a discourse on indigeneity has emerged that links local struggles across the continent with transnational movements whose core issues are racism and political and cultural rights. Second, recent constitutional reforms in several countries recognize the multicultural character of Latin American countries and the legal pluralism that necessarily follows. Multiple InJustices synthesizes R. Aída Hernández Castillo’s twenty-four years of activism and research among indigenous women’s organizations in Latin America. As both feminist and critical anthropologist, Hernández Castillo analyzes the context of legal pluralism wherein the indigenous women of Mexico, Guatemala, and Colombia struggle for justice. Through ethnographical research in community, state, and international justice, she reflects on the possibilities and limitations of customary, national, and international law for indigenous women. Colonialism, racism, and patriarchal violence have been fundamental elements for the reproduction of capitalism, Hernández Castillo asserts. Only a social policy that offers economic alternatives based on distribution of wealth and a real recognition of cultural and political rights of indigenous peoples can counter the damage of outside forces such as drug cartels on indigenous lands. She concludes that the theories of indigenous women on culture, tradition, and gender equity—as expressed in political documents, event reports, public discourse, and their intellectual writings—are key factors in the decolonization of Latin American feminisms and social justice for all.

Download or read book The Haitians written by Jean Casimir and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sweeping history, leading Haitian intellectual Jean Casimir argues that the story of Haiti should not begin with the usual image of Saint-Domingue as the richest colony of the eighteenth century. Rather, it begins with a reconstruction of how individuals from Africa, in the midst of the golden age of imperialism, created a sovereign society based on political imagination and a radical rejection of the colonial order, persisting even through the U.S. occupation in 1915. The Haitians also critically retheorizes the very nature of slavery, colonialism, and sovereignty. Here, Casimir centers the perspectives of Haiti's moun andeyo—the largely African-descended rural peasantry. Asking how these systematically marginalized and silenced people survived in the face of almost complete political disenfranchisement, Casimir identifies what he calls a counter-plantation system. Derived from Caribbean political and cultural practices, the counter-plantation encompassed consistent reliance on small-scale landholding. Casimir shows how lakou, small plots of land often inhabited by generations of the same family, were and continue to be sites of resistance even in the face of structural disadvantages originating in colonial times, some of which continue to be maintained by the Haitian government with support from outside powers.
