La experiencia de comunidad y convivencia en las comunidades afrodescendientes en el río Atrato, desde la perspectiva del buen vivir y la convivialidad

Abstract

In the proposal of the present work, a theoretical description of the community experiences and coexistence in Afro-descendant communities around the Atrato River, from the perspective of the good living of Arturo Escobar, anchored to the ecological thought of Leonardo Boff and of conviviality in Iván Illich. These relational ties that have helped the people to resist and stay in their territories based on peasant organizational processes, gestated by the analysis of reality from the word of God, strengthening in this way with collective and organizational processes of resistance, which have allowed the people to maintain their identity, and way of being their own as a people Afro through the peasant community model. These affirmation items ethnicity have been fundamental in the transmission of identity traits, which in turn have once allowed the Afro-Atlantic community to maintain its permanence in the territory, despite the exclusion to which they have been subjected as a people, culture, ethnicity and region, maintaining an attitude of demand and demand for rights and that they can build their own political spaces for participation citizen, (such as law 70) and their permanence in the territory against the policies of the governments of the day. This is how we find the Afro-Colombian community, in the construction of community and coexistence, strengthening from the sociocultural elements and religious and ancestral bioknowledge, developing from culture, in their creativity and rebellion as fundamental pillars to defend their ethnic identity anchored to the territory as a healthy convivial element. Bliss construction of identity from the communities of the city, show similarities important with the good life of Arturo Escobar, the conviviality processes of Iván Illich and the ecological thought of Leonardo Boff, where the Rio is presented Attract as a fundamental element for a convivial community.Finally, an Afro group can be seen, with an inherent sense of community to the territory now in the city, which from the culture and some ethnic elements own, has managed to recreate strategies full of a political discourse, to vindicate their rights as an Afroatrateño people based on the experience of life and community around the Atrato River.
