          Abstract

          Abstract The current environmental crisis calls for thinking about the state of the world: the thermodynamic-ecological and symbolic-cultural conditions of organic and human life on the planet. In this regard, it stresses the need to realize the unawareness and life’s unsustainability that humanity has created. In this text I discuss and take a stand about some of the concepts and founding and constitutive research lines of political ecology. In this way I pretend to open dialogue by placing in context some of the principles, ideas, and founding viewpoints of political ecology in Latin America and contrasting them with those from the English-speaking school of thought. I intend not only to establish a political socio-geography, but to question the epistemic core of political ecology, and to stimulate a more cosmopolitan critical thinking in order to be able to face the hegemonic powers that lead the world into social and environmental decay

          Resumo A crise ambiental demanda refletir sobre o estado do mundo: as condições termodinámico- ecológicas e simbólico-culturais da vida orgánica e humana no planeta. E isto coloca a necessidade de pensar sobre o desconhecimento e a insustentabilidade a vida que inadvertidamente produziu a humanidade. En este texto problematizo e radicalizo em torno de alguns conceitos e questionamentos em torno de aspectos fundantes e constitutivos da ecologia politica desde territorios latinoamericanos, contrastando-as com as contribuicões da ecología política anglófona. Procuro nao apenas establecer una socio-geo-grafía política dos conflitos ambientais, e questionar o núcleo epistémico da ecologia política e estimular uma reflexao mais cosmopolita e crítica para enfrentar os poderes hegemônicos que tem conduzido o mundo a degradação socioambiental do planeta.

          Resumen La crisis ambiental llama a pensar el estado del mundo: las condiciones termodinámico- ecológicas y simbólico-culturales de la vida orgánica y humana en el planeta. En este sentido, coloca la necesidad de pensar sobre el desconocimiento y la insustentabilidad de la vida que inadvertidamente ha producido la humanidad. En este texto problematizo y radicalizo sobre algunos de los conceptos y líneas de indagación fundantes y constitutivas del campo de la ecología política. Pretendo así abrir un diálogo contextualizado sobre algunos de los principios, ideas y propuestas fundamentales de la ecología política desde territorios latinoamericanos contrastándolas con los aportes de la ecología política anglófona. Busco no solo establecer una socio-geo-grafía política de los conflictos ambientales, a cuestionar el núcleo epistémico de la ecología política y a estimular una reflexión más cosmopolita y crítica para enfrentar los poderes hegemónicos que conducen al mundo hacia la degradación socio-ambiental del planeta.
