Territorio y bien común : una propuesta de diálogo fraterno

Abstract

We want to present some principles derived from the encyclicals Laudato Sí and Fratelli Tutti, of Franciscan inspiration, which could be used from bioethics, and would allow decision makers and technicians who accompany them some guidelines for the planning of the territory that they have these three elements: the space as a natural element, the community that in habits it and the power relations that contribute to its ordering. For this, it is necessary to understand that the territory is made up of different visions of the same space in which the natural and the anthropic are mixed, generating a varied and complex network of relationships. When analysing a territory, it must be considered its physical-spatial components and the different relationships woven with the communities that inhabit it, shaping their identities, loaded with cultural, social, economic, and political experiences, among others, that give theplace particular characteristics that help to differentiate it from other spaces. Therefore, the territory is the base and sustenance of the different communities that inhabit it, where it is determined by them, generating different scales of understanding, boundaries and collective experiences, that print their quality of complex socio-ecological space and in constant change, which is why it is necessary to establish a fraternal dialogue between decision makers and communities that allow the common good and justice between generations and achieve the protection of their biological and cultural diversity
