Описание:At the dawn of Western civilization, the Greeks, with the invention of philosophy, and the Hebrew people as God’s chosen people, were place on the cusp of human condition. The first ones in a rational philosophical way and the second ones in a spiritual way. Shaping the “land of fertilizer” for the racism and the genocides/epistemicides of the sixteenth century perpetrated by Christianity. These theological, racial and imperial ingredients were manifested later in modern philosophy and influencing western thou- ght to this day. It is proposed the meta epistemology of contexts as an alternative to the prevailing intellectual colonialism in the Latin American academy reincorporating the utmost respect that the indigenous peoples have for nature and linking it in the cons- truction of knowledge no veiled neo eurocentrism, epistemic racism and imperialism.
