Second Interinstitutional Meeting: Territory, Participation and Interculturality. Critical Perspectives from the South-South
5, 6 and 7 October
15 hours Mexico
16 hours Bolivia
17 hours Argentina
PRESENTATION
With the arrival of progressive governments in Latin America during the first decade of the 21st century, worldviews that transcend the political, economic, and intellectual narratives emanating from the Global North emerged forcefully or became more visible. The Western worldview, imposed as dogma, was insufficient to understand the new and complex social dynamics rooted in capitalist rationality, many of which were perceived as an attack on the basic principles of democratic life. Phenomena such as migration, violence, colonialism, conservatism, classism, racism, and patriarchy are the focus of Latin American thought, which has found in the word "South" a means of political, territorial, global, and intellectual resistance, and a way of understanding the world.
The Second Interinstitutional Meeting “Territory, Participation, and Interculturality: Critical Perspectives from the South-South” follows the line of Latin American critical thought. Its objective is to contribute to the understanding of territorial resistance and tensions, social, political, and educational participation, and intercultural processes in Latin America. Its immediate antecedents are the First Interinstitutional Meeting “Territory, Participation, and Interculturality: Experiences from Guerrero, Chiapas, and Colombia,” held at the Ibero-American University in Mexico City in March 2020, and the First National Forum on Critical Pedagogy “Emancipatory Educational Perspectives,” held at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the Autonomous University of Guerrero (Mexico) in November 2019.
We are committed to emerging fields in knowledge production, such as intercultural studies based on a critical political, epistemic, and pedagogical stance that advocates for the recognition of sociocultural and linguistic diversity and the importance of valuing the knowledge-generating practices of different peoples. We also draw on the perspectives of socio-territorial movements, which enrich our understanding of social and political struggles in the face of territorial disputes.
We value the analytical perspective on processes and transformations in diverse areas and the need to identify contested territories. We believe that the political significance of practices in and from these territories has revealed the multiplicity of historical experiences, the challenges and possibilities for social, political, and educational participation, as well as the heterogeneity of relationships built in situations and processes shaped by power relations and structural inequality, allowing us to understand current scenarios.
The Second Interinstitutional Meeting will be organized around two keynote addresses and three panel discussions that will contribute to the reflection on the themes described above. The questions that will guide the debate are: What are the social, political, economic, and educational problems that affect the socio-territorial contexts in which the research or educational intervention project is situated? How do these problems relate to the proposed themes? How can a co-constructive dialogue be fostered and carried out among the communities, the various grassroots organizations, and the academic community, enabling collaborative work and the recognition and understanding of diverse social, political, educational, and cultural practices?
