The pretext of this reflection is to explore the dynamics that characterise the political mobilisation of ethnic sectors in Colombia, using the concept of interethnicity to model a critique of the way in which the struggles for the rights of these sectors have historically unfolded. The characterisation of the encounters and misunderstandings between the universal and particular dimensions of politics will be recurrent in order to promote a specific understanding of the problem of the state, which will play a leading role throughout the reflection, and in relation to which considerations will be made about the complex relationship that this institutional instrument, as a more or less valid figure for effecting concrete transformations, has maintained with the country's ethnic peoples, discussing, in a less formal way, the global economic scheme that disrupts this relationship. Finally, the content of this text is conceived as a repertoire of clues or theoretical insinuations to rethink the conceptual frameworks that delimit the ways of doing politics and political agency in the Colombian context.
