El presente artículo sostiene que "Nuestra América" debe entenderse como un ejemplo central de producción de conocimiento ecocrítico decolonial desde el Sur, y examina cómo el ensayo conceptualiza la naturaleza como una narrativa que denuncia la explotación colonial antropocéntrica del medio ambiente y fomenta una visión planetaria de lo humano.Universidad de Alcalá20262026-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501NAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10017/68922https://dx.doi.org/10.37536/ECOZONA.2025.16.2.5265reponame:e_Buah Biblioteca Digital Universidad de Alcaláinstname:Universidad de Alcalá (UAH)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:dnet:ebuahbibliot::15c26b88d57a048289754de8596ad50c2026-06-18T11:13:07Z |
