SANTANA-COLIN, Yasmani. The access of indigenous mexican intellectuals to the academy as a form of contribution to decolonization. Sinéctica [online]. 2023, n.61, e1561.  Epub 06-Fev-2024. ISSN 2007-7033.  https://doi.org/10.31391/s2007-7033(2023)0061-013.

The article aims to problematize how indigenous Mexican intellectuals have occupied the academy as a trench of resistance in which little by little they are positioning the issues that involve them and their own communities. This research is approached from a dialogical ethnographic perspective, that is, an exploration that seeks to establish an approach that allows dialogue processes between indigenous intellectuals, men, and women who have been academically trained, mostly in the field of social sciences and humanities, and who maintain a commitment to indigenous communities. We find that access to the university and particularly the use of academic writing has made it possible, in the words of the indigenous intellectuals themselves, to move towards decolonization processes in which they claim the worldview of their communities.
