Territories in dispute. Poetics and politics from the south

Territory is a spatio-temporal totality that is not simply given, but constructed. It is a dynamic instance that has a physical existence in certain coordinates of time and place; a relational existence, ubiquitous, polysemic and at different scales due to the link with contiguous or discontiguous territories. It is about a social existence as a social construction through a space-time product of conflicts of interests between social agents with different logics of reproduction as well as about an emotional existence linked to the identity and affective reproduction of each society.

Book presentation: La horizontalidad en las instituciones de la producción de conocimiento

Every knowledge producer linked to an institution has experienced the imperatives that, through rules and hierarchies, channel the production of knowledge and limit the results generated there. Common practices of the institutions involved in the production of knowledge are: the imposition of methods, theories that do not explain local contexts, or the exclusion of voices considered illegitimate for the production of knowledge.
