Research methodologies, Indigenous knowledge, IndigenizationAbstract
This paper offers a methodological approach to research Indigenous fashion in Abya Yala, based on the insights offered by recent writings on Native American art. Such methodologies must be rooted on Indigenous systems of thought, forms of conducting research, and ways of knowledge. The relational character of Indigenous systems of knowledge allows for the co-existence of several truths. Moreover, Indigenous people and objects who have been traditionally excluded from the building of academic knowledge in the west must be accepted as academic authorities.This paper proposes centering research of Indigenous fashion on Native paradigms in order to rewrite hegemonic narratives and give prominence to Indigenous people, objects, and worldviews.
