Alberto Carvajalino Slaghekke, « The construction of territoriality in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia. An explanation from the Anthropology of fear », HAL-SHS : philosophie, ID : 10670/1.eeojhz
This article analyzes the impact that dynamics of violence generate on the territory when they persist over time. The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia, is a good example, since in it there are two opposite conceptions: the thought of territory for ancestral peoples and the concept of it as an object of possession for illegal armed groups. The symbolic values generated have their origin in social practices around land tenure, since the construction of territoriality is the evidence that reflects the history and footprint of man on the land.
