Gestión del manejo, uso y tenencia en el Parque Nacional Natural Tayrona. superando la conservación y el desarrollo sostenible desde la ontología política relacional

Abstract

The National Parks are strategies for in situ conservation of strategic ecosystems and are considered essential to the preservation of nature. But they are also mired in a territory, which is conceived as a cultural practice, but with rules conditional on institutional dynamics that permeate the actions of the actors and establish models of occupation that may conflict with the conservation objectives. To that extent, speeches related to the institutional designs within protected areas in Colombia, based on the premise of conceiving the territory from logical conceptual separation between culture and nature, based on a modern rationality, which has been based, to conceive the declaration of the national parks in the territories, from the perspective of strict conservation, without giving participation to historically settled communities. This view prevents the application of clear rules about not only the fulfillment of the objectives of conservation and sustainable development, but also no consultation with the various territorialities, leading to ignore the management complexity of management, the culture of use and dynamics of occupation and land tenure in these areas. This research seeks to analyze the current condition of Tayrona National Park, in terms of conflict environmental management, culture of use and land tenure, based on the concept of relational political ontology, which facilitates understanding the phenomenon to show how ontological struggles of excluded groups such as indigenous or peasant, lead to some ecological and cultural transitions, which are strategies that can be more efficient and sustainable preservation and achieving welfare, the logic of this sensitive territory in Colombian Caribbean.
