description The objective of the present work is to present the relations between Eurocentrism as an imperial cognitive pattern and the social thought of Jürgen Habermas. Initially, we will discuss the presuppositions implicit in the Habermasian theorization of modernity: its philosophy of history and its spatial-geographical assumptions. Such an analysis will be carried out by discussing the comparative method quite common to the tradition of the European social sciences and whose use in Habermas shows his vision on Europe as the norm, a measure of all other societies and civilizations of the world. Following the objective outlined, two works were chosen: one from the early 1980 and the other from the beginning of the 21st century in order to show how the Habermasian narrative remains attached to what we call European imperial cognitive pattern from which it is possible to see a geopolitics of world population classification.

O objetivo do presente trabalho é apresentar as relações entre eurocentrismo como padrão cognitivo imperial e o pensamento social de Jürgen Habermas. Tal análise será levada a cabo pela discussão do método comparativo bastante comum à tradição das ciências sociais europeias e cujo uso em Habermas torna possível entrever o monismo universalista característica de sua teoria em que a Europa é tomada como norma, significante mestre, medida de todas as outras sociedades e civilizações do mundo. Para desenvolver o objetivo delineado, foram escolhidas, basicamente, duas obras, uma dos anos de 1980 e outra do início do século XXI com o intuito de mostrar como a narrativa habermasiana se mantém basicamente presa ao que designamos por padrão cognitivo imperial europeu pela qual se entreve uma geopolítica de classificação da população mundial cuja dinâmica se iniciou em 1492 com a conquista da América. 2018-09-13 2022-03-21T17:15:00Z 2022-03-21T17:15:00Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/aurora/article/view/7305 10.36311/1982-8004.2018.v11n1.10.p169 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/70236 por https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/aurora/article/view/7305/5251 Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Aurora application/pdf Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Revista Aurora; v. 11 n. 1 (2018); 169-182 1982-8004 2177-0484
