description The article deals with the tensions between tradition and modernity faced by an afro-descendant community in the township of Cerrito, Valle del Cauca, specifically those related to cultural practices towards everyday sexuality. Having migrated from diverse rural contexts to this urban scenario, the community subject of research changed its geographical location as well as its place of residence, but its customs and beliefs remained intact. From this point of view, a new problem has arisen that stands in the way of women’s sexual and reproductive rights, namely, male partners refusing to use any birth control method. Accordingly, the issue around this practice demands a historical revision of sexuality in afrodescendant populace from an interpretative perspective that allows for studying how cultural devices are inherited and duplicated in these communities.

El artículo aborda las tensiones entre tradición y modernidad que, en el ámbito de las prácticas culturales del ejercicio cotidiano de la sexualidad, afronta una comunidad afrodescendiente del municipio de Cerrito, Valle del Cauca. Esta comunidad, que migró desde diversos contextos rurales a un escenario urbano, cambió su ubicación geográfica y su lugar de residencia, pero no sucedió lo mismo con sus imaginarios, que se mantienen inamovibles. Desde esta perspectiva, se analiza una problemática que obstaculiza el cumplimiento de los derechos sexuales y reproductivos de las mujeres: la negación, por parte de sus parejas masculinas, ante el uso de cualquier método anticonceptivo. El interrogante sobre esa prohibición exige una revisión histórica en torno a la práctica de la sexualidad en las comunidades afroamericanas, desde una perspectiva interpretativa, que se detiene en los dispositivos culturales heredados y reproducidos en dichas comunidades. 2012-05-14 2024-10-10T02:30:42Z 2024-10-10T02:30:42Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/388 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10645 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/388/327 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA NODO; Vol. 6 Núm. 12 (2012); 55 - 66 2346-092X 1909-3888
