BAHAR TUNCAY, Vildan. Reflections on the Use of Maps as a Pedagogical Tool in Latin America: A Marginalized Function in Comparison to the Strategic-Legal Function. Apuntes [online]. 2013, vol.26, n.1, pp.78-87. ISSN 1657-9763.
This paper discusses the use of cartographic heritage of Latin American tribes as a pedagogical tool in spaces marked socio-politically by the emergence of indigenous social movements claiming their ancestral territorial rights. In this context, the role of cartography as a pedagogical tool for teaching history and spatial and cartographic practices of the peoples of Latin America was relegated to the background in comparison to the strategic-legal function adopted to subvert power relations. The paper is based on two phenomena to explain the reasons why the cartographic heritage does not reach its full potential as a teaching tool at different levels of education in Latin America. In the existing literature about the history of cartography, the power of representation mapping has, or its role in the reconstruction of indigenous territoriality, the approach is not the historical and cultural value or cartography, nor its function as a teaching tool.
