Abstract

MORALES MARTINEZ, Elías David  and  FLORENCIO, Jéssica Girão. The debate on decoloniality, indigenous aspects and environment in Latin America: an analysis of the current situation. Foro int [online]. 2018, vol.58, n.1, pp.131-160. ISSN 0185-013X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/fi.v58i1.2485.

The decolonial perspective as a theoretical contribution by Latin American research agendas is growing significantly in the region. Understanding the demand for the creation of this perspective as a result of the specific features of the colonial process in Latin America, many themes view this contribution as fundamental for the analysis of scientific research. Consequently, this paper seeks to undertake a review of the current situation with regard to the use of the modernity/coloniality/decoloniality perspective with regard to indigenous and environmental issues. The aim is to verify the trends in the decolonial agenda according to indigenous and environmental themes, and therefore assess the potential of new approaches and dimensions of research in these areas.

Keywords : current situation; decoloniality; indigenous issues; environment; Latin America.
