Abstract
- Introduction: Studies on masculinities in Latin America have diversified their thematic axes and one of them is related to ethno-racial issues. This article presents an analysis of the masculinization of the indigenous subject, a topic that needs to be addressed and discussed in conjunction with other theoretical corpus to understand that ethnicity and gender are categories related and linked to historical processes. Objective: The objective is to present a proposal to broaden the interpretations about the masculinization of the indigenous subject, by carrying out a relational approach between gender and ethnicity, primary categories in the social and subjective construction of masculinities. Method: A hermeneutical exercise is developed from the gender perspective to delve into the interpretive act on the understanding of indigenous masculinities as a social, historical and complex construction. Emphasis is placed on historicity to have a situated approach that allows explaining that the generic construction of the subject is reminiscent of the history that is manifested in the present. Results: It is emphasized that, since masculinity is a complex phenomenon, a dialogue is required with other theoretical proposals that make it possible to broaden the understanding of the masculinization of the indigenous subject. For example, with decolonial feminism or intersectionality to have a situated approach to the phenomenon of masculinity. Conclusions: The openness to difference is a key element that allows expanding the hermeneutical act on the masculinization of the indigenous subject. For this reason, the articulation with other epistemic resources allows us to understand that gender learning is complex and diverse, when reading from the parameters of each society.
