A special issue on 4E Cognition research in Colombia presents seven articles and two opinion pieces that explore how cognition is embodied, enactive, extended, and embedded. The collection has two parts: conceptual proposals and applications to pathologies and situations. German Bula draws on Spinoza's ontology to derive hermeneutic keys for understanding mind and body reciprocally. Juan Loaiza proposes a convergence between enactivism, anthropology, and ethics of care, linking concern and social participation to autopoiesis. Alejandro Arango critiques enactivist perception theory for neglecting social practices, arguing that perception depends on cultural networks. Maria Clara Garavito examines incorporating others into extended cognition discussions.
