Hacer filosofía en Latinoamérica: un proyecto de descolonización en José Carlos Mariátegui

Abstract

This article approach the thought of José Carlos Mariátegui (1894 - 1930) who found in the Marxist socialism a civilizatory alternative for the socio-political crisis of Peru and hence, of all Latin America. His thought parts from the need of an emancipatory and decolonial philosophical reflection to the urgent problems of the region, keeping the importance of the speculative and critical studies that act as a bridge between the reality and the vision of the 'real', between the theoretical and the practical; in which the history is taken as a source of reflection to rethink the subject from its own identity that boosts it to the revolution, understood as an exercise of cultural and historical claim.
