Open-access STATE, TERRITORY AND INTERETHNIC RELATIONS IN MULTICULTURAL CONTEXTS

This article attempts to elucidate the importance of the relations of solidarity exercised in the interethnic field between black communities and indigenous peoples in Colombia as a trigger for key territorial agencies in the processes of social change and modernization of both the State and society. It is a way of understanding the emergence of new social relations and a world of life produced in the midst of the different graphs that mark the territory and that represent discourses that range from the places of enunciation of ethnic and racial groups, to the many political designs of the multicultural State. It is concluded that the relations of ethnic groups in Colombia, in situations of neighborhood, mark borders in which an interethnic world survives. A world of life and a system of kinship in zones of porous, fluid coexistence, and not always in harmony, but that define collective agencies.
