- Title
Asimetrías y diversidad en las relaciones naturaleza-cultura: una reflexión en torno a la modernidad occidental.
- Authors
Piñeiro Aguiar, Eleder
- Abstract
In this exploratory paper I develop a genealogy about the vision that different Western authors and theories have developed around the idea of nature and its relation to progress, from classical philosophy to Eurocentric modernity. Then, I contrast what I consider a universal imaginary about nature-culture relations with other research from the global South and in particular from various indigenous, Latin American and decolonial theories. Therefore, a documentary review has been developed around "classic" and current texts. This paper concludes that individualism and developmentalism coming from the Western tradition find fractures, resistances and vanishing points raised from academic and activist perspectives that articulate a discourse contrary to Eurocentric epistemic and materialist extractivism.
