TORRICO-AVILA, Elizabeth. The Linguistic-Epistemic Uprising Behind The Teaching Of The Atacamenean Language. Temas Sociales [online]. 2021, n.49, pp.216-236. ISSN 0040-2915.  https://doi.org/10.53287/afrs4691ow80u.

This article examines the insurgent practices of the people of Atacama who seek to teach Ckunza, a language which is extinct according to experts and the Chilean State. The Atacameños create the academy of the Ckunza language and teach the language in the community. Thus they revive Ckunza decolonising the episteme imposed by the neo-liberal State and taking up their linguistic and educational self-regulation. Finally, their recovery of ancestral knowledge through indigenous research and legitimise the representation of identity through their language.

Palavras-chave : decolonisation; interculturality; language policy; idiom ckunza; Lickan Antai; ancestral knowledge.
