“…Recognizing this, Acuña (2015) and Ruiz Serna and Del Cairo (2016) argue that addressing competing ontologies could offer an approach to understand how socio-environmental conflicts emerge. Socio-environmental conflicts are often interpreted as problems of governance (e.g., lack of formal political participation or transparency); however, they could also be regarded as arising from a community's want to preserve culture and the environment (Acuña 2015). For example, Western ontology makes a distinction between nature and society (Latour 1993) and holds a notion of progress that includes human conquest of nature, industrialization, material abundance through superior technology, and economic development (Norgaard 2006).…”

Resumen: A partir de la teoría de las emociones de Martha Nussbaum, el presente trabajo propone una teoría de la racionalidad y razonabilidad judicial que incluya a las emociones como un elemento necesario. Con ello se pasa de un modelo puramente deliberativo-abstracto de argumentación judicial a uno de tipo narrativamente abierto, en el cual la empatía y la imaginación literaria desempeñan un papel fundamental. Sostendré que las emociones tienen una manifestación concreta en al menos tres circunstancias relevantes: el valor del testimonio, el de la empatía y el de la imaginación literaria. Sin embargo, el lugar de las emociones para el proyecto de la racionalidad judicial está sometido a restricciones institucionales tales como reglas del derecho, procedimientos o precedentes. Con ello, un bosquejo de teoría sobre la racionalidad narrativa en sede judicial es presentado en la última sección.Palabras clave: teoría de las emociones, empatía, racionalidad judicial, injusticia epistémica Abstract: Based on the theory of the emotions proposed by Martha Nussbaum, the present paper proposes a theory of rationality and judicial reasonability that includes emotions as a necessary element. With this, it is possible to pass from a purely deliberative-abstract model of judicial argument to a narratively open one, in which empathy and literary imagination play a fundamental role. I will argue that emotions have a concrete manifestation in at least three relevant circumstances: the value of testimony, that of empathy, and that of literary imagination. However, the place of emotions for the project of judicial rationality is subject to institutional restrictions such as rules of law, procedures and precedents. With this in mind, a sketch of theory on the narrative rationality in judicial contexts is presented in the last section of this paper.

“…In such cases, the alleged contribution refers to the wrongful dispossession of particular lands that previously belonged to these groups. This argument is typically invoked when indigenous peoples demand that "ancestral" or "historical" territories be returned to them, as in the case of the Mapuche in the Araucanía Region in Chile (Carruthers and Rodriguez 2009), the Awajún and Wampis in the Peruvian Amazon (Acuña 2015), and the indigenous peasants in Chiapas, Mexico (Harvey 1998). …”

Indigenous and non-indigenous communities in Latin America make land claims and support them with a variety of arguments. Some, such as Zapatistas and the Mapuche, have appealed to the "ancestral" or "historical" connections between specific communities and the land. Other groups, such as MST in Brazil, have appealed to the extremely unequal distribution of the land and the effects of this on the poor; the land in this case is seen mainly as a means for securing a decent standard of living for members of disadvantaged groups. Although there is a large literature on the history as well as the social and political dimensions of land contestations and conflicts in Latin America, the question of whether the land claims put forward by disadvantaged groups can be morally justified has not been adequately examined. In this essay, we investigate the scope and limits of appeals to what we shall call assistance-based, contribution-based, and benefitting-based moral reasons with respect to land claims made by these disadvantaged groups.Keywords: land claims, rights to land, landless movement, benefiting from injustice, rectification, duties to assist RESUMEN Distintas comunidades en América Latina (indígenas y no indígenas) han realizado reclamos de tierras sobre la base de una variedad de argumentos. Algunas de esas comunidades y grupos, tal como los zapatistas y el pueblo Mapuche, han efectuado estos reclamos apelando a conexiones "ancestrales" o "históricas" entre comunidades específicas y un territorio particular. Otros grupos, tal como el movimiento sin tierra (MST) en
