Reflections on Oral History, Modernity/ Coloniality, and Nicaraguan American Social Processes.

Abstract

Both Oral History as method and the current of thought of Alterity have temporal relationships, since they were harvested near and after the Second World War. It is also related to the militant method, not only to propose an anti hegemonic process of construction of reality and interpretation, but also the platform for the protagonist in any social class or sector to narrate, relate and determine the future of another, new history. The protagonists of the history of life (orality) as a case of analysis, the three women are part of a study that contributes to validate another history, to narrate the history of the people, out of power, out of the tradition of knowledge.
