| description | In this essay I analyze critical thinking, more specifically, some of its limits and possibilities, based on a dialogue between the Frankfurt School and the de-colonial thinking. My hypothesis is that the Frankfurt School studies have an important critical potential that goes beyond the limits of the North; but as long as they are incapable of perceiving the implications of their theoretical ideas beyond the northern borders adequately, these works are unavoidably limited and lack complementation. The recent organization of a great group of authors around the concept of "coloniality" is an alternative that also leads to an important source of critical work of thinking. However, the refusal of all kinds of universality can inadequately limit the de-colonial thinking in some of its strongest features. Thus, I propose the concept of a universalism from the South. |

En este ensayo analizo la cuestión del pensamiento crítico, algunos de sus límites y de sus posibilidades, desde un diálogo entre la Escuela de Frankfurt y el pensamiento decolonial. Mi hipótesis es que los estudios de la Escuela de Frankfurt traen consigo un importante potencial de crítica, cuyo alcance no se limita al Norte, pero en la medida en que no logran percibir adecuadamente las implicaciones de sus elaboraciones teóricas más allá de las fronteras del Norte, quedan ineludiblemente limitadas y necesitan de complementación. La organización más reciente de un conjunto amplio de autoras/es reunidas/os alrededor de la categoría de la colonialidad emerge como una alternativa de complementación que conlleva igualmente una profunda fuente para el trabajo de la crítica. A pesar de eso, el rechazo de cualquier universalidad restringe el potencial del pensamiento decolonial en algunos de sus rasgos más fuertes. Propongo entonces el concepto de un universalismo desde el Sur. 2020-09-01 2022-03-15T19:29:52Z 2022-03-15T19:29:52Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Estado y Movimientos Sociales en Nuestra América https://revistas.uncu.edu.ar/ojs/index.php/millca-digital/article/view/2085 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/24800 spa https://revistas.uncu.edu.ar/ojs/index.php/millca-digital/article/view/2085/2758 Derechos de autor 2020 David Gomes application/pdf Facultad de Ciencias Políticas y Sociales Millcayac - Revista Digital de Ciencias Sociales; Vol. 7 No. 13 (2020): Millcayac Revista Digital de Ciencias Sociales (septiembre-febrero); 419-440 Millcayac - Revista Digital de Ciencias Sociales; Vol. 7 Núm. 13 (2020): Millcayac Revista Digital de Ciencias Sociales (septiembre-febrero); 419-440 2362-616X |
