- Summary:
- This book explores the critical decolonial thought and philosophical contributions of Santiago Castro-Gómez, a prominent Latin American scholar. It examines his key concepts, such as the 'hybris of the zero point,' which critiques the universalizing tendencies of Enlightenment thought and its impact on colonial hierarchies. Through essays by various contributors, the book delves into genealogy, heterarchy, and the intersection of cultural studies and decolonial theory. It also reflects on methodological approaches to coloniality and addresses challenges in global philosophical discourses. Intended for academics and students in philosophy, cultural studies, and social sciences, the work aims to foster critical thinking about power, knowledge, and colonial legacies, while advocating for a pluralistic and inclusive philosophical framework.
