| description | This article analyzes the critique of modernity in Latin American social thought from two conceptions: Walter Mignolo’s position in the modernity/coloniality group, and the critique of the Brazilian sociologist Jessé Souza to readings about non-modernity in Brazil. The critique of these two perspectives sheds light on the particular position of Brazil: on one hand, its situation can be analyzed from the broad perspective of Latin America; or on the contrary, the country presents peculiarities that make difficult the task of making a simple overview. The nodal point between these interpretations is in the conception of peripheral and alternative modernity (or modernization), and in the role that this concept plays in both theories. |

This article analyzes the critique of modernity in Latin American social thought from two conceptions: Walter Mignolo’s position in the modernity/coloniality group, and the critique of the Brazilian sociologist Jessé Souza to readings about non-modernity in Brazil. The critique of these two perspectives sheds light on the particular position of Brazil: on one hand, its situation can be analyzed from the broad perspective of Latin America; or on the contrary, the country presents peculiarities that make difficult the task of making a simple overview. The nodal point between these interpretations is in the conception of peripheral and alternative modernity (or modernization), and in the role that this concept plays in both theories. En este artículo se analiza la crítica de la modernidad en el pensamiento social latinoamericano desde dos concepciones: la posición de Walter Mignolo en el grupo modernidad/colonialidad y la crítica del sociólogo brasileño Jessé Souza a lecturas sobre la no-modernidad en Brasil. La crítica de estas dos perspectivas arroja luz sobre la peculiar posición de Brasil: por un lado, se puede analizar su situación desde la amplia perspectiva de América Latina; o por el contrario, el país presenta peculiaridades que dificultan la tarea de hacer un sencillo sobrevuelo. El punto nodal entre estas interpretaciones está en la concepción de la modernidad (o modernización) periférica y alternativa, y en el papel que juega este concepto en ambas teorías. Neste artigo, analisa-se a crítica da modernidade no pensamento social latino-americano a partir de duas concepções: a posição de Walter Mignolo no grupo modernidade/colonialidade e a crítica do sociólogo brasileiro Jessé Souza às leituras sobre a não-modernidade no Brasil. A crítica destas duas perspectivas joga luz sobre a posição peculiar do Brasil: por um lado, pode-se analisar sua situação desde a ampla perspectiva da América Latina; ou pelo contrário, o país apresenta peculiaridades que dificultam a tarefa de fazer um simples sobrevoo. O ponto nodal entre estas interpretações está na concepção da modernidade (ou modernização) periférica e alternativa, e no papel que joga este conceito em ambas as teorias.
