HACIA UNA CARTOGRAFÍA DE LA CRIANZA: DOMESTICIDAD Y DOMESTICACIÓN EN COMUNIDADES ANDINAS

TL;DRAbstract

An analytical comprehension of the native ways of perceiving the relationship and management practices that societies have with plant communities at the Andes, conduces us to highlight the place that the local practices of mutual nurturing have, as a relational metapattern between humans and non humans.
