另类世界与知识:拉美现代性/殖民性研究计划
|
摘要
殖民性是西方现代性话语中内在的组成部分,鉴于此,拉美知识界的现代性/殖民性研究计划试图借助于开辟另一块知识生产的领地以及形成另外一种思考方式,从而实现对"另类世界和知识"的建构。经过不懈努力,参与这一计划的学者们已经取得丰硕成果。尽管大多数学者来自于拉美,但他们并没有将自身的思考局限于地方性议题。相反,他们致力于在更广泛的意义上探讨现代性的黑暗面以及超越的途径。本文首先从总体上介绍现代性/殖民性研究计划,然后讨论了其中的性别、本质以及对替代性经济的思考等议题。
Being aware that coloniality is an integral component of Western modernity, scholars involved in the Latin American Modernity/Coloniality Research Program take "worlds and knowledges otherwise" as their aim and attempt to craft another space for the production of knowledge and to make an alternative way of thinking possible. The scholars in this program have achieved a lot through their constant efforts. Despite the fact that most of the scholars are from Latin America, their intellectual endeavour is by no means limited to local agendas. Instead, they aim to deal with the dark side of modernity in a broader sense and the way out. After presenting an overview of the current Modernity/Coloniality landscape, this paper proceeds to illustrate some key issues such as gender, nature, and the need to think about alternative economic imaginaries in this intellectual project.
