MUNOZ-VILLARREAL, Erika Milena. Ecovillages in Colombia transiting towards good living. Entramado [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.2, pp.114-131. ISSN 1900-3803. https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.2.4754.
I present a qualitative research whose objective was to understand how the Humanity-Nature relationship is expressed in the ecovillage movement, taking as reference the Anthakarana (Quindío) and Aldea Feliz (Cundinamarca) ecovillages in Colombia. To do this, a documentary inquiry and an empirical approach were made using ethnographic methods that allowed to know the daily life, knowledge and practices of these communities. A cycle of analysis and interpretation was designed according to the cases study approach in which the Atlas.ti tool was used. The main argument of the thesis is to state that the studied ecovillages are cocreating new types of relationships in nature, which can be read as a transition of the dual ontology towards a relational ontology in which it tries to overcome the disconnection humanity - nature. This ontological transition implies a cycle of individual transformation, with other humans and beings, cocreating knowledge, practices and values respect to life. In this process, they have accepted the category of Good Living to guide their community purposes and the possibility of resignifying knowledge.
