The essay takes into account some categories and practices of colonial relations by considering both domination and subjectification processes and handles the concept of border and the complex dynamics of crossing, mobility, diaspora, and hybridization. The critical analysis of the hierarchical order of the world highlights the ways in which the relations between non-homogeneous elements produce conflict and assimilation practices, but also contaminations and inclusion. By assuming the "colonial" as a precarious concept, the essay stresses the discursive aspects of dominion but also the government, counter-conducts, and resistances, without forecloses the persistence of the epistemological struggle of coloniality, and the matrix of power that produces the otherness of the colonized.

Abstract
The essay takes into account some categories and practices of colonial relations by considering both domination and subjectification processes and handles the concept of border and the complex dynamics of crossing, mobility, diaspora, and hybridization. The critical analysis of the hierarchical order of the world highlights the ways in which the relations between non-homogeneous elements produce conflict and assimilation practices, but also contaminations and inclusion. By assuming the "colonial" as a precarious concept, the essay stresses the discursive aspects of dominion but also the government, counter-conducts, and resistances, without forecloses the persistence of the epistemological struggle of coloniality, and the matrix of power that produces the otherness of the colonized.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
