Abstract

ABSTRACT This article examines the “linguistic dispossession” of the creole-speaking Afrodescendent communities in the Archipelago Colombian island territory of Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia, and Santa Catalina. Considered are the socio-spatial re-configurative processes of linguistic dispossession and how it has transformed the landscape, livelihoods, and daily communitive practices of Afrodescendent communities on the island territory. It analyzes the processes through which the Colombian State deliberately carried out linguistic and cultural dispossession via strategies known as “Colombianization” and describes the relationship between the loss of the local languages, the production of space, and processes of dispossession through education and religion.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
