Abstract

KATZER, Leticia. “Difference-as-a-colony”, governmentality/biopoliticas and Good living (jointly): decolonial ramifications of Derrida, Foucault’s thinking and postcolonial criticism. Tabula Rasa [online]. 2016, n.25, pp.317-362. ISSN 1794-2489.

This paper puts forward -at the crossroads and in line with deconstruction, Foucault’s thinking, post-colonial criticism, the anthropology of nature and political ecology- in order to think about the risks of epistemic individuation stalking more open formulations on modern/colonial subjectivity. We show a specific reading of those theoretical corpora within an anthropological-philosophical framework, and make inroads in the epistemological potential of this reading in exploring the field of ethnopolitics understood as a “domain of knowledge”. Therefore this work is an effort to inquire into and analyse epistemologic and juridical-administrative formulations, through a critical review to their assumptions, and analysing their effects on commonalization forms of life-in-common.

Keywords : Ethnopolitics- Life in Common- deconstruction- biopolitics- postcolonial critique.
