Abstract

From the nineteenth century to the present day, external peoples, companies, and governments have perpetrated disrespectful attitudes and behaviours toward Amazonian Originary Peoples. In response, Originary Peoples have increasingly adopted their own protocols of respectful interactions with external actors. However, research on the development and implementation of intercultural understandings of “respect” in pluri-cultural interactions has been scarce. Drawing on findings from collaborative research in the Peruvian Amazon, this article explores how Asheninka and Yine perspectives and practices of “respect” inform and could transform euro-centric conceptions and hegemonic consultation processes based on “mutual respect,” proposing instead a practice of “intercultural respect.” The study was initiated at the invitation of Asheninka and Yine community members themselves. Long-term relationships catalysed an invitation to co-design a community-based collective endeavour, which began in 2015. The discussion and findings presented in this article are part of a larger project that attempts to portray how Asheninka and Yine collaborating communities want to be respected under their own terms. This collaborative work proposes: 1. An Originary methodology; 2. A paradigm-encounter frame; and 3. Ten principles to guide “intercultural respect” for the Peruvian Amazon.

摘要

从19世纪到今天，外部民族，公司和政府对亚马逊原住民采取了不尊重的态度和行为。作为回应，原住民越来越多地采用他们自己的与外部参与者互动的协议。然而，关于多元文化互动中对“尊重”的跨文化理解的发展和实施的研究很少。借鉴秘鲁亚马逊地区合作研究的结果，本文探讨了Asheninka和Yine关于“尊重”的观点和做法如何启发并可以基于“相互尊重”来转变以欧元为中心的观念和霸权协商过程，并提出了“跨文化的尊重。这项研究是应Asheninka和Yine社区成员自己的邀请而发起的。长期的关系催生了共同设计基于社区的集体努力的邀请，这项工作始于2015年。本文中的讨论和发现是一个较大项目的一部分，该项目试图描绘Asheninka和Yine合作社区如何成为社区尊重自己的条件。这项协作工作提出：1.一种原始方法论；2.范式遭遇框架；3.指导秘鲁亚马逊地区“跨文化尊重”的十项原则。本文中的讨论和发现是一个较大项目的一部分，该项目试图描绘Asheninka和Yine合作社区希望如何以自己的方式受到尊重。这项协作工作提出：1.一种原始方法论；2.范式遭遇框架；3.指导秘鲁亚马逊地区“跨文化尊重”的十项原则。本文中的讨论和发现是一个较大项目的一部分，该项目试图描绘Asheninka和Yine合作社区希望如何以自己的方式受到尊重。这项协作工作提出：1.一种原始方法论；2.范式遭遇框架；3.指导秘鲁亚马逊地区“跨文化尊重”的十项原则。
