Translating Indigenous Knowledges
In this book, Vidal presents a new way of translating indigenous epistemologies. For centuries, the Western world has ordained what knowledge is and what it should be and has also been responsible for transmitting that knowledge. This "universal" knowledge has traveled to the four corners of the globe. In recent decades, there has been a steadily growing interest in dialogical epistemologies. Disciplines ranging from historiography and philosophy to anthropology are calling for this universalist idea of knowledge to be modified. Thanks to this change of perspective, other forms of knowledge, which until now have been ignored, are gradually coming to light. Indigenous knowledges are not const...
Voces indígenas amenazadas y el despertar de sus lenguas
En este viaje transcontinental pasaremos por África, Europa, Oceanía, y las Américas, conociendo situaciones lingüísticas de lo más diversas, en las cuales encontraremos lenguas que parecen haber caído en coma, otras que despiertan, o se refuerzan, se recrean y dinamizan en distintos grados. Las situaciones y experiencias que se presentan son diversas, heterogéneas y retadoras, al igual que los esfuerzos que se despliegan desde distintos frentes, ya sea desde las familias, las comunidades de habla, las de práctica, las diaspóricas; o desde la academia o las instancias políticas. Todavía, estos esfuerzos son insuficientes; y es que la pérdida de las lenguas, no solo conlleva el olvido de palabras o frases, sino de valores, principios y formas de vida inmersos en contextos históricos complejos, por lo general caracterizados por ideologías lingüísticas negativas interseccionadas, que poco aportan a su revitalización. De ahí, la importancia de desarrollar procesos integrales, situados, que vayan más allá del sistema lingüístico a la defensa de los derechos humanos, y la búsqueda de justicia social.
The Challenge of Human Rights

By thinking through some of the ideas of the past, with a set of promising young scholars alongside more established names, readers will gain a sense of how human rights politics have shaped the current regime while also becoming attuned to the extent to which new directions and mechanisms can be forged in the future. Many of the...
