| Descripció: | The Western/Eurocentric/colonial way of structuring research projects and undergraduate, master's and doctoral theses, in rigid, schematic and dogmatic components, do not account for the influx and spontaneity of the process of configuration of knowledge and knowledge located and contextualized. In this sense, it is urgent to get rid of colonial notions such as: theoretical framework, thesis title, index or table of contents, problem statement, justification of the research, research background, epistemological paradigm, methodology and bibliographic references. That is, we must feel/think/do with our own notions and not import eurocentric categories. We must go beyond the traditional way of structuring such processes and documents. Going beyond the colonial way of structuring research processes/documents involves deconstructing, reconfiguring, and even destroying it. This is possible by means of the hizontes of a decolonizing scenario, which dismantle the traditional componentes for the structure of research projects and theses. We know that it is not so easy, but it is urgent to distance ourselves from the rhetoric of modernity. These horizons of a decolonizing scenario are part of the detachment and disengagement of eurocentric modernity/coloniality, in order to unveil the logic of coloniality and configure a new grammar of decoloniality. Hence, decolonial notions emerge such as: tbranch decolonial, scene of border horizons, colonial question, reflective questions, decolonial urgencies/emergencies, alterified challenges, visible voices, disobedient journeys, decolonial resonances and mediators visible. |
