Tercer Espacio

Homi Bhabha: Principales influencias

Heidegger, del post-estructuralismo, Foucault, Derrida, Lacan 2. Para el propio Bhabha, la mayor influencia ha sido del escritor Edward Said por sugerir a whole transdisciplinary terrain (Bhabha citado en Mitchell)
1.

Border

A boundary is not that at which something stops but, as the Greeks recognized, the boundary is that form which something begins its presencing (Heidegger citado en Bhabha 1).

Bhabha y Tercer espacio

Bhabha otorga al concepto de tercer espacio el poder de destruir el mito de la cultura integrada hegemnica y autentificada por un pasado originario que se mantiene viva en las tradiciones nacionales.

Bhabha y el Tercer Espacio

The beyond is neither a new horizon, nor a leaving behind of the past. . . Beginnings and endings may be the sustaining myths of the middle years; but in the fin de siecle, we find ourselves in the moment of transit where space and time cross to produce complex figures of difference and identity, past and present, inside and outside, inclusion and exclusion (Bhabha 1-2)

Third Space

The wider significance of the postmodern condition lies in the awareness that the epistemological limits of those ethnocentric ideas are also the enunciative boundaries of a range of other dissonant even dissident histories and voices (6-7)

These in-between spaces provide the terrain for elaborating strategies of selfhood singular or communal- that initiate new signs of identity, and innovative sites of collaboration, and contestation, in the act of defining the idea of society itself (Bhabha 2).

It is in the emergence of the interstices the overlap and displacement of domains of difference that the intersubjective and collective experiences of the nationness, community interest, or cultural value are negotiated (Bhabha 2).

The intervention of the Third Space of enunciation, which makes the structure of meaning and reference an ambivalent process, destroys this mirror of representation. . . Such an intervention quite properly challenges our sense of the historical identity of culture as a homogenizing, unifying force, authenticated by the originary Past, kept alive in the national tradition of the People (Bhabha 54).

Edward Soja

Hace referencia a La production de lespace de Henri Lefebvre Lefebvre argumenta qu4e el espacio es, en primer lugar, un producto social que est formado por una combinacin de tres campos historicamente separados: el fsico, el mental y el social

Edward Soja
Con su referencia a The Aleph de Jorge Luios Borges, Soja plantea sus ideas sobre el tercer espacio: the space where all places are, capable of being seen from every angle, each standing clear . . . A space that is common to all of us yet never able to be completely seen and understood, an unimaginable universe (56).

Soja: Thirding as othering

Otro se concibe como un elemento deconstructor cuya intervencin constituye un diferencial que da origen a nuevos significados en constante mutacin.

Soja: Thirding as othering

Tres tipos de espacio: el espacio percibido y producido socialmente; el espacio concebido que Lefebvre defini como representacin del espacio (orales y textuales); y los espacios vividos o espacios de representacin. Reflexionar sobre ejemplos de los diferentes espacios: representaciones

Soja: Thirding as othering

La intervencin del Otro en el reblance de las dimensiones espacial, histrica y social representa la incorporacin de distintas miradas, entre ellas la cinematografa, la litertura

Walter D. Mignolo

The colonial difference. . . Works in two directions: rearticulating the interior borders linked to imperial conflicts and rearticulating the exterior borders by giving new meanings to the colonial difference (50).

Mignolo

Referencia a Quijano: At the same time that the colonial domination was asserting itself, a cultural complex under the name of rationality was being put in place and established as the universal paradigm of knowledge and of hierarchical relations between the rational humanity (in Mignolo 59).

Gnosis knowledge

located at the border of coloniality of power in the modern world system (67). gnosis knowledge: knowledge from a subaltern perspectiveconceived from the exterior borders of the modern/colonial world system

Gnosis knowledge

that strives to a.) foreground the force and creativity of knowledges subalternized during a long process of colonizationand b.) counter the hegemonic knowledges that govern Western dominant thought and have been perpetuated through Occidentalism (11-14). Segn Mignolo, border thinking

Diferencia colonial

Espacio en el cual surge la colonialidad de poder; espacio en el cual el conocimiento subalterno y el pensamiento de frontera surgen; espacio en el cual las historias locales se encuentran con diseos globales. Lo que sucede: Adaptacin, rechazo, integracin, se ignoran

La experiencia latinoamericana (J. Jorge Klor de Alva

Hibridad Mestizaje: it is the felicitous product of the coming together of the various races; . . . It became the essence of American reality; and it is the unique expression of a synthesis that . . . culminates with Christianity, the Spanish language, and the embrace of the West (250).
