ROJAS HERRERA, Juan José. Good Living and contemporary indigenous literature in Mexico. Intersticios sociales [online]. 2024, n.27, pp.283-313. Epub 03-Maio-2024. ISSN 2007-4964. https://doi.org/10.55555/is.27.529.
In this article, an exploratory exercise is carried out to search for points of contact between the South American paradigm of Good Living, as an alternative concept to Western development and modernity, and contemporary indigenous literature in Mexico, with the purpose of to what extent and in what way the theoretical-ideological postulates of Good Living have influenced or not the literary creation of Mexican indigenous writers. For this, a comparative analysis was carried out, with a documentary approach, between some of the theoretical texts of Good Living and the most representative contemporary works of Mexican indigenous literature. This has allowed us to conclude that although there is no relationship, claim or direct affiliation of national writers with respect to the Good Living paradigm, their literary production is permeated by said precept. The foregoing is explained by the fact that when indigenous literature emerges as a product and expression of its own worldview and this includes Good Living, in a natural way, an identity of a substantial nature is produced between both social phenomena, still insufficiently recognized and assumed as such, but that in the immediate future it is expected that it will intensify and become more explicit.
