How does the production of nature take place under communitarian forms or the ones found at the frontiers or peripheries of capitalist colonial expansion?

How is the social-natural space being produced (or counter-produced) from the commons and communality? How is nature being thought or expressed in the representation and imagination of the natural world from these frontier spaces? The following essay proposes that the social production of the commons is closely related to a social counter-production of the natural space, which constitutes a form of deacumulation of the capitalist logic, thus resisting different forms of dispossession. A possible example of this counterproduction lies in the experience of resistance against oil extractivism of the Kichwa community of Sarayaku in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The life project of the community departs from the principles of Sumak Kawsay or Buen Vivir (good living), thus establishing a central concept: Kawsak Sacha, the jungle of beings. These new concept entails a “trascendental” conception of territorial space, where the emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual dimensions of the community are being projected. ¿Cómo acontece la producción de la naturaleza bajo formas comunitarias o que se encuentran en las fronteras o periferias de la expansión colonial capitalista? ¿Cómo se produce (o contra-produce) el espacio social-natural desde lo común y la comunalidad? ¿Cómo se piensa la naturaleza o se expresa la representación e imaginación de lo natural desde los espacios fronterizos? El siguiente ensayo propone que la producción social de lo común está estrechamente relacionada con una contra-producción social del espacio natural, que constituye una forma de desacumulación de la lógica capitalista que resiste a las distintas formas de despojo. Un ejemplo posible de esta contra-producción, se encuentra en la experiencia de resistencia contra el extractivismo de la comunidad kichwa de Sarayaku, en la amazonia ecuatoriana. Su propuesta de vida parte desde los principios del Sumak Kawsay o Buen Vivir, estableciendo un concepto central: Kawsak Sacha, la selva de los seres. Se trata de una concepción de espacio territorial “trascendental”, donde se proyectan las dimensiones emocionales, sicológicas, físicas y espirituales de la comunidad.
