本文探讨了不同的土地本体论在定居者殖民主义和土著运动的非殖民化和环境正义。定居者的土地本体论通过遮蔽其他感知、表征和体验土地的模式来运作。土著人的土地本体论通常围绕着人与非人之间的关系和相互义务。从政治经济学，政治生态学，原住民研究和后人文主义的文献中汲取学术知识，我们综合了一种思考土地的方法，以了解剥夺的结构和通过本体论杂交实现原住民振兴的可能性。使用两个不同的案例研究，在印度尼西亚的种植园开发和土地振兴的联盟萨利希和Kootenai国家，我们进一步发展如何定居者和土著本体论在地面上运作，照亮了共存的多种本体论的土地。鉴于土地在定居者殖民主义中的中心地位，混合本体论对寻求同时加强对领土的主权和振兴土地实践的土著运动很重要。
This article examines different ontologies of land in settler colonialism and Indigenous movements for decolonization and environmental justice. Settler ontologies of land operate by occluding other modes of perceiving, representing, and experiencing land. Indigenous ontologies of land are commonly oriented around relationality and reciprocal obligations among humans and the other-than-human. Drawing together scholarship from literatures in political economy, political ecology, Indigenous studies, and post-humanism, we synthesize an approach to thinking with land to understand structures of dispossession and the possibilities for Indigenous revitalization through ontological hybridity. Using two different case studies—plantation development in Indonesia and land revitalization in the Confederated Salish & Kootenai Nation—we further develop how settler and Indigenous ontologies operate on the ground, illuminating the coexistence of multiple ontologies of land. Given the centrality of land in settler colonialism, hybrid ontologies are important to Indigenous movements seeking to simultaneously strengthen sovereignty over territory and revitalize land-based practices.
