Abstract

La conversa (o conversación) es el medio ancestral a través del cual el pueblo originario Nasa del sur de Colombia transmite sus conocimientos y cosmovisión. En torno a la Tulpa (fogón), donde históricamente han compartido su visión de la vida, se recrea un relato literario ficcional. En este relato, diversos personajes, que representan las voces plurales del pueblo Nasa, narran su historia desde épocas prehispánicas hasta la actualidad. Este relato construye un recuento histórico de sus imaginarios, formas de resistencia, relación con el territorio y autonomía como pueblo. El relato literario se complementa con un análisis académico crítico y analítico que acompaña al lector a lo largo de la mayor parte del documento. No se trata de una explicación del uno respecto al otro, sino de la coexistencia de dos perspectivas para comprender y interpretar las realidades, siempre colocando en el centro del análisis la visión de vida desde la concepción Nasa. Ambos documentos (el relato y el análisis) desarrollan discusiones sobre las coexistencias asimétricas de los sistemas jurídicos, donde los pueblos dominados permanecen sujetos a una sumisión derivada del colonialismo y a un pluralismo jurídico débil. Esto abre posibilidades para entender la relación con el territorio y la resistencia frente a un sistema social y jurídico hegemónico y opresivo. De manera disruptiva, se desarrolla intertextualmente el rumbo de la conversa: la conversada y la por conversar.

Alternate abstract:

Conversation is the ancestral method through which the Nasa people of southern Colombia transmit their knowledge and worldview. Around the Tulpa (fireplace), where they have historically shared their way of life, a fictional literary narrative is recreated. In this narrative, various characters—representing the diverse voices of the Nasa people—tell their history from pre-Hispanic times to the present. This narrative constructs a historical account of their imaginaries, forms of resistance, relationship with the territory, and autonomy as a people. The literary narrative is complemented by an academic analysis that critically and analytically supports the reader throughout most of the document. This is not intended as an explanation of one by the other but as the coexistence of two perspectives for understanding and interpreting realities, always placing the Nasa conception of life at the center of the analysis. Both documents (the narrative and the analysis) explore discussions on the asymmetrical coexistences of legal systems, where the dominated are subject to a legacy of colonialism and a weak legal pluralism. This opens up possibilities for understanding the relationship with the territory and the resistance against a hegemonic and oppressive social and legal system. Thus, in a disruptive manner, the trajectory of the conversation—both the discussed and the yet-to-be-discussed—is developed intertextually.
