Abstract

ABSTRACT This article analyses the technological resistance of different social, citizen, and community collectives of young Aymara people in the Bolivian cities of El Alto and La Paz facing structures of the materiality of coloniality. This analysis is based on ethnographic fieldwork and interviews with leaders of two collectives of technological resistance defending Aymara’s indigenous identity. The results show how their forms of political organization and repertoire of contentions, memories of resistance, socio-technical imaginaries, and historical identities achieve technological resistance structures capable of confronting the forms of institutionality that assume the coloniality of power and knowledge in the Andean country.

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.
