Andrés González Dinamarca (Rancagua, 1991), has two degrees in Social Anthropology (2019 and 2016) from the Universidad de Chile, and currently Andrés is on the 2nd year of the DPhil in Anthropology (University of Oxford). His work focuses on the Mapuche nation-people’s culture, from a perspective of epistemic justice and ontological determination. Andrés is particularly interested in the interactions between humans and the spiritual world (cosmopolitics), through instances like dreaming and the ceremonial life, also in the development of Indigenous scholarship and self-representation. He is of Mapuche Pikumche descent, and he has engaged with the process of Mapuche cultural and linguistic revitalization in urban contexts since 2017.
