【 摘 要 】

With the colonization of the Americas, the Europeans introduced coloniality, imposing political and epistemic control structures. Today, an epistemic mobilization, coming from Aboriginal people themselves and academics, is taking place to dislocate the coloniality. To understand some of the dynamics involved in their political and identity affirmation, the author examines the discursive dimension of this epistemic mobilization through the concept of heterogeneity as developed by the Peruvian literary critic Antonio Cornejo Polar, some of the proposals of Latin American colonial and «decolonial» studies and the ontological turn in anthropology. Subsequently, these theories are applied to two Quebec’s indigenous authors, the historian Georges Sioui and the poetess Rita Mestokosho, and show how they manifests decolonizing border thinking through various devices such as border gnosis, others thought and other languages.
