CRUZ CHAVARRO, Nasly y AREVALO ROBLES, Gabriel Andrés. INDIGENOUS SUMMITS: POLITICS AND ANCESTRAL DIPLOMACY IN LATIN AMERICA. Novum Jus [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.1, pp.133-160. Epub 29-Jul-2022. ISSN 1692-6013. https://doi.org/10.14718/novumjus.2021.15.1.7.
Indigenous diplomacy is a recurring social and political practice of indigenous representatives to mediate, influence, and negotiate their political stakes in international and regional organizations. One of its main and most innovative dimensions is the indigenous diplomatic summits that have become ancestral negotiation strategies for the construction of continental political horizons. This article presents the main findings of the following research question: what have been the political, functional, and symbolic/cultural dimensions of the indigenous diplomacy of the Latin American Ancestral Summits held in the last thirty years? The main findings include the following: a) the Latin American indigenous political horizon evolved towards the concept of 'taking power;' b) the turn of the millennium was conceived as a sign of the cyclical time for the recovery of ancestral territory, using the principle of self-determination as a reference; c) spirituality is the inspiration and guide of ancestral struggles; d) the struggle of indigenous women to open spaces for continental participation. Each of these findings is developed throughout this text.
