Intercultural philosophy from a Latin American perspective

Raúl Fornet-Betancourt

pp. 149-161

Abstract

This article explores two basic questions duly exploring its title, viz. "Intercultural philosophy from a Latin American philosophy".These questions, dealt with separately in the next two sections, are (1) What has the emergence of the intercultural proposal within the international philosophical discourse meant to the development of philosophy in Latin American and what have been its theoretical consequences? (2) What can Latin American philosophy mean to intercultural philosophy or what could the Latin American experience contribute to the development of the intercultural philosophical discourse as an experiment in truly universal philosophical dialogue?
