Beyond linguistic binarism; proposal for the decolonization of language

This article aims to present a theoretical-critical proposal about the problem of the binarism of Western coloniality present in the Spanish language, from the perspective of linguistic decoloniality from a reading of the literature on linguistics (generativist), neuroscience (cognitive) and the study of language as a natural object. The problem of linguistic binarism and the main factors involved in it are reviewed, as well as the cognitive-linguistic formations of the colonial matrix of epistemic and linguistic to propose a possible rupture with this binarism present in language and language as an object and exploration for the search for new linguistics that are located from other locus of enunciation that return to the subjects the illusion of being masters of their speech. © 2022 Universidad Catolica Silva Henriquez.
