Territorial re-existences of indigenous movements in the Andean-amazon region

Abstract

Los movimientos de los pueblos indígenas contra los procesos extractivistas neoliberales en América Latina han empleado tradicionalmente estrategias centradas en el reconocimiento territorial de su identidad y cultura. El tema que se investiga es el reciente resurgimiento de movimientos sociales de base territorial post-extractivista que están utilizando estrategias basadas en modelos económicos innovadores y en el desarrollo creativo. El objetivo es estudiar estos movimientos sociales territoriales y los conflictos socio-ecológicos analizando casos en la región andino-amazónica en Bolivia y Colombia. La metodología es cualitativa y etnográfica, basada en entrevistas y análisis documental. En el caso del río Rositas en Bolivia, comunidades indígenas y producto res se han organizado para oponerse a la construcción de una represa y un proyecto hidroeléctrico. En la región colombiana del Cauca, la disputa es por 20.000 hectáreas de monocultivo de caña de azúcar, donde la comunidad local lucha por cultivar maíz, frijoles y yuca. Las características comunes de estos movimientos son la implicación ecofeminista, formas autónomas de acción colectiva y experimentación política, nuevos lenguajes y patrones de lucha y movilización que incluyen el despliegue de alianzas internacionales.

Movements by indigenous peoples against neoliberal extractivist processes in Latin America have traditionally employed strategies focused on territorial recognition of their identity and culture. The issue under investigation is the recent resurgence of post-extractivist territorial-based social movements that are using strategies based on innovative economic models and creative development. The objective is to study these territorial social movements and socio ecological conflicts by analyzing cases in the Andean-Amazonian region in Bolivia and Colombia. The methodology is qualitative and ethnographic, based on interviews and documentary analysis. In the case of the Rositas River in Bolivia, indigenous communities and producers have organized to oppose the construction of a dam and hydroelectric project. In the Colombian region of Cauca, the dispute is over 20,000 hectares of sugarcane monoculture where the local community is fighting to grow corn, beans and yucca. The common characteristics of these movements are ecofeminist involvement, autonomous forms of collective action and political experimentation, new languages, and patterns of struggle and mobilization including the deployment of international alliances
