CARRION SANCHEZ, Claudia P. Challenging the Nation-State: Pasto Community Autonomy Claims. univ.humanist. [online]. 2015, n.80, pp.133-157. ISSN 0120-4807.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.UH80.denr.

This article reflects on the autonomy process carried out by the Pasto indigenous communities that are settled down along the Colombian-Ecuadorian border. This process demonstrates the colonial continuum that the indigenous communities have had in the Nation-States of Colombia and Ecuador, which despite having a legislative production on the subject, have not operated to develop breakthroughs to reduce the exclusion and extermination process experienced by the original communities. Firstly, it is carried out an analysis of the challenges presented in the border States where mobilization of the population is interfered by the militarization adopted as a measure against the danger of the Colombian armed conflict. Secondly, we examine the process of regional recognition that the Pasto community has made progress on, which has been developed on both sides of the border in search of the reconstruction of their identity and the survival in their ancestral lands.
