MARTINEZ-DUENAS, William Andrés  y  PERAFAN LEDEZMA, Astrid Lorena. Thinking Conservation from Multinaturalism in an Indigenous Locality of the Colombian Andes. univ.humanist. [online]. 2017, n.84, pp.77-107. ISSN 0120-4807.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.uh84.pcml.

Through an ethnographic experience with the Indigenous Council of Puracé (Cabildo Indígena de Puracé - CIP), and in the Indigenous Reserve that goes by the same name (RIP), it can observed how ‘conservation’ has created a space of interaction between the indigenous organization (CIP) and the Colombian State. This proves the potential productivity of this process, and on the other hand, it shows that what happens in this dynamics can be better understood in light of a multinaturalistic analytical platform, and not only from the multicultural framework. This paper focuses on showing how two non-humans, cows and condors, are inserted in specific ways particular socio-material networks. In each of these networks, both cows and condors are different beings with whom one interacts in a particular way. Thus, the paper suggests an approach that considers the coexistence of more than one nature in the same geographical space.

Palabras clave : condor; cows; conservation; multinaturalism.
