RODRIGUEZ ORTIZ, Roxana. Borderlands: political ontology in Gloria Anzaldúa. Andamios [online]. 2023, vol.20, n.52, pp.159-176.  Epub 17-Nov-2023. ISSN 2594-1917.  https://doi.org/10.29092/uacm.v20i52.1002.

In the analysis that I propose for Borderlands / La frontera. The New Mestiza I undertake a reading of Gloria Anzaldúa’s philosophical thought mediated by Hannah Arendt’s question in The Promise of Politics as to whether politics still makes sense. The categories that I recover from Arendt’s political theory to demonstrate that Anzaldúa’s writing is also ontological are thought, action, freedom, and necessity. With these four categories, I draw a symbolic and territorial space to defer the allegory of aporia in the Chicana writer border thinking. Analysis in which I deploy the political ontology of the woman who claims to be a frontier woman.

Palabras llave : Political philosophy; ontology; allegory; aporia; displacement; border philosophy.
