SUPERIOR INDIGENOUS LICENSES THROUGH PROLIND. TWO SIDES OF THE SAME CURRENCY: coloniality and emancipation.
Indigenous Education, Colonialism, Coloniality, Decolonialism.
The colonization process to which our continent was subjected and the peoples that inhabited it have caused a series of consequences that we still feel and live through coloniality. Colonialism, an event that marks modernity and continues through coloniality (which, according to Maldonado-Torres, 2008, p.84, are two sides of the same coin), transformed Europe from a simple province to the center of the world. As a result, the European economic, cultural and political framework started to be imposed as universal, that is, as a reference for the whole world. Its way of organizing power, its epistemology and culture would be the only valid ones and should be followed by all. Colonialism would be “the control of the political authority, of the production resources and of the work of a certain people over the other” (QUIJANO , 2007, p. 93). In this context, the colonization process imposed culture, epistemology and political and economic control on dominated peoples through the exercise of power in an authoritarian manner. This power, in principle, a process of capital accumulation obtained through the exploitation of the colonies, which favored the development of Capitalism.
