Colectivos culturales en clave de gestión cultural y comunicacional

Abstract

ABSTRACT

From the foundational epistemic notion, and even more strategic, of Culture, in times of deterritorialization and forgetfulness, as well as fruitful contributions from the alternative, this analysis seeks an active questioning of the role of Cultural Collectives. These are configured as nuclei of dynamization at the base of the construction of processes of making culture, with a view to the participation of the community in its capacity as active and creative citizenship. They are committed to resituating the true endogenous, original and current values of Ecuadorianness; elevate the management of local heritage, the embrace of the preservation and appropriation of cultural history, in an imbrication that privileges the best of what is glocal. The study proposes a critical dialogue with the management of “Cuchara de Palo”, only about seven years after its creation, giving value to its imprint, to a common collaborative spirit, which involves locating certain dysfunctions in public management, which They are not being solved by any other structure, in addition to disagreements and lack of financing to be able to exercise more effective cultural leadership.

Keywords: Cultural Collectives, Cultural Management, Communication Management, Institutionality, Citizen Participation.
