GIGENA, Andrea Ivanna. Discovery and obliteration of the indigenous subjectivity. Nómadas [online]. 2009, n.31, pp.227-239. ISSN 0121-7550.

This article presents an analysis of kolla tinkunaku indigenous community (Salta, Argentina), which confronts the discovery and destruction of indigenous subjectivity from the life story of the only female president of the community. It explores the patterns and tensions that emerge from the domination and conflict inherent in a community permeated by colonialism. These circumstances are revealed in the discovery of the indigenous-being-in-the-fighting and its annulment.

Palavras-chave : kolla tinkunaku community; fight for rural territory; coloniality of being; subjectivity; life stories.
