SOBRE LAS COSMOVISIONES ANCESTRALES Y SU RELACIÓN CON LA ARQUITECTURA, LA CIUDAD Y EL TERRITORIO ANDINO MODERNOS

Abstract

The emergence of the native peoples of the Andes has brought reflections on their ancient worldviews and generates updated appreciations that are sought to be discussed. It is assumed that if there is social development -and of thought- it is necessary to historically locate these worldviews. Contrary to the colonialism that seeks to eliminate them, their demand would not mean transferring these ways of thinking and worldviews to the analysis of situations today. The idea is developed that in cultural miscegenation these pasts are present and are part of our diverse contemporaneity. The identity is discussed and an encounter with the authentic presence of the current Andean subjects is proposed, who would be part of the solidarity search for the new social organization by which the modern peoples of Latin America are mobilized. These debates become important when applied to the analysis of contemporary territory, city and architecture.
