Summary: | This article proposes the hypothesis that the conquest is not an event indicating the genesis of modernity, but a structure that sustains it trans-historically. The author suggests that the matrix that hallmarks this structure is race. The text conjures up a possible dialogue with the thought of scholars such as Michel Foucault (war of races), Aníbal Quijano (racism as a product of coloniality) and Rita Segato (race as a communicative sign), and ties them with Latin American empirical and historical researches. Finallty, it tries to demonstrate that there is a pervasive re-edition of Conquest as a way to perpetuate racism and racialization.
Este texto arriesga la hipótesis de que la conquista no es un acontecimiento que inaugura la modernidad, sino una estructura que la sostiene transhistóricamente, y propone que la matriz que posibilita esa estructura es la raza. Este texto propone un diálogo posible con las tesis de pensadores como Michel Foucault (guerra de razas), Aníbal Quijano (raza y colonialidad) y Rita Segato (raza como signo comunicativo), y las anuda con investigaciones empíricas e históricas latinoamericanas. Intenta proponer que existe una gestión de la conquista permanente como forma de perpetuar la racialización. |
