| Summary: |
The project of Multicultural Nation-State promoted by contemporary societies is based on the recognition of diversity, on differentiated rights, and on equality as a structural condition of life in community. This recognition means legitimizing the historical struggles of vernacular ethnic groups and social minorities, which have been paradigmatic subjects of the struggles for economic, social, and political participation. The analysis of the perspectives as regards diversity and multiculturalism for the construction of an inclusive and equitable nation-state implies recognizing the right to cultural identity of the ethnic and culturally differentiated groups, appreciating and learning about them, and determining their territorial location by means of the permanent construction of an intercultural dialog. This article is a historical study that analyzes the importance of constitutional recognition of multiculturality in order to comprehend the ethnic and cultural conflicts in the Colombian society within the framework of the social state of law as a mechanism for building intercultural dialogs, which would make it possible to shape a more inclusive and equitable society; one which transcends the monocultural state model on which Latin American republics have been constructed since their foundation. |
