Territorializing memories and territorial identity claim

Diterbitkan 2021-03-11

Abstrak

In this work I seek to reflect on the notions of temporality that intervene in the collective memories that arise from territorializing-collective activities and practices and the formulation of identity policies by members of two communities of the Diaguita People-Nation in Tucumán (Choromoro Valley , Argentina) in contexts of conflicts and struggles for their territorial rights. Among the triggering questions that inspire this work are: what do these memories evoke ?; Do they contain an alternate temporality to that claimed by the official history of the “state as a nation” (Briones, 2005) ?; Do they (re) signify notions of time that allow questioning those of a hegemonic order?
