Resumen

¿Qué tiene que decir la antropología sobre las catástrofes que aterrorizan a nuestra generación? En este texto proponemos una reflexión sobre la forma en que diferentes figuraciones de la animalidad y la humanidad participaron en la estructuración de un mundo marcado por desigualdades entrelazadas desde narrativas literarias, históricas y socioantropológicas. El objetivo es subsidiar reflexiones sobre el continuum constituido por lo moderno-colonial para analizar algunos de sus conflictos, particularmente los que se basaron en las proyecciones de características asociadas a ciertos animales sobre ciertos grupos humanos para caracterizar y justificar su inferioridad o sus males. Nuestra reflexión está guiada por la pregunta: ¿La animalidad expresa solo la identidad de ciertos animales diferentes a nosotros o se revela también como uno de los múltiples marcadores sociales que organizan el imaginario hegemónico de nuestro tiempo?
