Colonialism, Intercultural Dialogue and Reconciliation: Debates between James Tully and Glen Coulthard
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aims to delve into the most outstanding concepts of James Tully and Glen Coulthard regarding colonialism, decolonization, and Indigenous identity. I review the most relevant theoretical knots and points of discussion for the current debate on interculturality and decolonization using a comparative analysis of both authors. In the first part, different perspectives on colonialism are analyzed. In the second section, I analyze their proposals regarding decolonization. Although both converge in several aspects, the divergence of the diagnoses of both authors leads them to develop opposing analyses in some passages. In the third part, this paper examines the controversies on reconciliation and the dialectic of master and slave, concluding on the importance of deep consideration of the interplay between the effects of institutional recognition and the production of Indigenous subjectivities in the context of state political structures.
