Abstract
In this chapter, Vergara-Figueroa argues that there is a need for an analytical framework for Afrodiasporic feminist sociology of land dispossession to historicize processes of deracination such as the massacre at Bellavista-Bojayá-Chocó-Colombia. The deriving analytics of this study suggest a path to overcome the limitation of the prevailing intellectual, legal, and political framework of forced migration. This book is an attempt to demonstrate the need to unthink and deconstruct a conceptual framework that is limited, dubious, and narrow-minded. Such limitations are dangerous in the sense that they may contribute to the legitimization of renovated discourses and practices of domination and dispossession.
