Abstract:This text proposes to explore in preliminary form some ideas about the constitution of non-humans present in the Actor-Network Theory (ANT), as a theoretical possibility for the study of socio-environmental conflicts in relation to the possession, access and exploitation of land in the South Global; based on the study among Mapuche communities of southern Chile. From a political ecology perspective, the concern for these ideas is raised in an attempt to move beyond the limitations of political ecology, towards a better understanding of the role of new actors linked to agriculture and rurality, have led to political ecologists to become progressively eclectic and move within the scheme of the ANT). The tensions that have taken the “tomas” de Fundos in the Araucanía’s region, on the part of Mapuche communities during the implementation of the Agrarian Reform, are the main object of this advance of investigation in historical anthropology that tries to be located within the ontological proposal of The TAR, but also in other proposals of the so-called ontological "turn"in social and human sciences, which offer a set of challenging ideas to think about an ontological policy project that has begun to transform the understanding we have of environmental problems
