From Colonial Natures to Entangled Ecologies: Making Due and Relational Geographies of Indigenous Resurgence in the Chaco

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract This paper offers an alternative reading of decolonial geographies by examining how people make due in the context of colonial natures. Drawing on collaborative ethnographic research, we illustrate how everyday acts of reclaiming ancestral lands serve as practices of resistance that foment Enxet and Sanapaná resurgence in Paraguay's Chaco.
