Abstract

ROSA, Luís Carlos Dalla. Well living and earth without evils: the cosmology of indigenous peoples as an educational epistemology of decoloniality. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2019, vol.42, n.2, pp.298-307.  Epub Jan 21, 2020. ISSN 1981-2582.  https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2019.2.27652.

The article discusses the notions of well-being and land without evils present in the cosmology of indigenous peoples, in view of an educational epistemology of decoloniality, as proposed by thinkers such as Enrique Dussel and Walter Mignolo. The point of departure is the reason for the Other, especially the indigenous exteriority, but also manifested in other frontiers (women, the black, youth …) that overflow modernity and coloniality, two faces of the same ontology that thinks the foundation of the being from the totality that oppresses and excludes the otherness. It is an eminently theoretical approach, starting from a phenomenological and at the same time hermeneutical analysis, insofar as the manifestation of indigenous wisdom has priority and, as such, must be the background of the present discussion, which occurs within the philosophy of education.

Keywords : Indigenous wisdom; Pedagogical; Otherness; Decoloniality.
