“…Defender of a symmetrical anthropology, he has not only taken care of 're-assembling the social' through his notion of 'collectives', but he has managed to 'symmetrize' the anthropologies of the 'margins' (indigenous ethnology, among them) with that anthropology practiced in the centres, among the 'modern' ones. Thus, for example, while ethnologists were dedicated to investigate the distinction nature-culture in the Amazon as defined by indigenous cosmologies, he himself was dedicated to understanding how this binarism was manufactured in scientific laboratories, within our modern cosmology. …”

Savages, Epics and Martyrs. The Master Narrative about San Jose Fort reconsidered from Historical Archaeology (Peninsula Valdes, Chubut Province, 18th Century) by Bianchi Villelli, Marcia, Buscaglia, Silvana

“…From a de-colonial perspective, it seeks to show how the master historiographic narrative is consistent with the construction of the Argentine nation-state, supported by a retrospective look to legitimate its temporal depth and spatial extent. Thus, from historical archaeology we suggest to expose the materiality of new schemes of senses to understand the colonial process in Patagonia, making other spaces, actors, processes and materiality which remained vague on the national and provincial historiography.…”

Violence: Bodily Commodification and Resistance in Festus Iyayi’s Novel by Mazza, Ana Victoria

“…These acts of caring resistance constitute a way of rejecting the artificial separation of Humanity and Nature, contained in the dualism of mind and body, that has historically justified (neo)colonial capitalist exploitation and expropriation.
