Este artículo considera la relación entre las plantas y la emergencia de imaginarios futuros, al abordar el papel de la planta de coca en las experiencias temporales de sus cultivadores en la Sierra de la Macarena, Colombia. En contraste con las perspectivas que interpretan esta actividad únicamente como un medio de subsistencia o una estrategia orientada a la maximización económica, el artículo destaca cómo el futuro —como temporalidad y como proyecto político— es reimaginado a través
de las posibilidades afectivas, económicas y prospectivas que la planta ofrece en territorios históricamente marcados por la violencia política y la precarización. Para respaldar este argumento, se examinan los ensamblajes y encuentros afectivos que la coca genera durante periodos de prosperidad, guerra e incertidumbre. En conclusión, se sugiere que las economías “ilegales”, en lugar de ser entendidas únicamente
como un problema criminal, deben ser vistas como un conflicto entre diferentes regímenes temporales e imaginarios futuros.
