Documentary abstract — original language

This essay reviews a series of perspectives aimed at a different understanding of the environment and a call to action. The text introduces theoretical approaches ranging from Karen Barad’s agential realism to Eduardo Viveiros de Castro’s perspectivism and Eduardo Kohn’s semiotic reading of the Runa Puna cosmologies to offer different understandings of the world around us and the sentient beings that inhabit it. Then, it compares Donna Haraway’s emphasis on the present in the configuration of place, time, and meaning with the sense of morality that arises from Kohn’s semiotic reading of the shared thoughts of living beings and Rosi Braidotti’s posthuman affirmative ethics. Based on Stacey Alaimo and Susan Heckman’s call for the political dimension of material feminism, the text focuses on the environmental emphasis of the constitutions of Ecuador and Bolivia and calls for legislation at the national and supranational level to enshrine and enforce the rights of living beings and the eco-system in general. Finally, the text calls for an interpellation of youth to ensure the continuation of these efforts in the following generation.
