HERNANDEZ GONZALEZ, Cynthia. Beyond the Islamic World: A decolonial anthropological reflection towards an analysis of Islam in Mexico. Inter disciplina [online]. 2018, vol.6, n.16, pp.105-136. Epub 24-Feb-2021. ISSN 2448-5705. https://doi.org/10.22201/ceiich.24485705e.2018.16.65637.
IThis study shows the need to question the anthropological investigations that analyze Islam in Mexico, with the intention of proposing the inclusion of other concepts, epistemologies/cosmologies and other subjects, to break with the monolithic and essentialist vision that exists of the Muslims who live in Mexico and the rest of the world. To this end, the Muslim being is conceived from its own genealogy, contemplating the colonial processes that were lived in Latin America during the sixteenth century and in the Islamic World during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, because without it there is the risk to configure an other from the Islamophobia existing in anthropology and other social sciences. As part of this writing is also a state of the art about the publications made in Mexico about the Muslim being, the reflections set out here address the ways in which the Muslims of this remote territory of the Islamic World have been essentialized, according to the knowledge proposed by the Latin American Decolonial School and the Muslim Critical Studies.
