dc.description.abstract |
In an electoral environment with a high concentration of private media ownership by opposition forces aligned with transnational anti-Chávez media, President Chávez has won nearly all elections and referenda. The Bolivarian Revolution’s media laws have contributed to this success through socially inclusionary policies, in conformance with the Venezuelan Constitution and statutes, designed to further national redistribution goals. Venezuelan indigenous peoples have enjoyed a mutually supportive relationship with the government and have taken advantage of these media policies—gaining access to the production of video, documentary film, social and print media, and radio—to negotiate tensions between their communities, the state, and hegemonic groups that continue colonialist practices. Joining networks of indigenous peoples in and beyond Abya Yala (the Americas), they call on all states to implement policies promoting the right to information and communication, and to treat all peoples with respect in order to decolonize knowledge hierarchies. Using their ways of knowing and communicating with the earth and with others globally, exercising these rights challenge current property rights regimes through the activation of relational ontologies as defined by Escobar. |
