SILVA, Filipe Gervásio Pinto da.
Resumo:
The text deals with the construction of modernity-coloniality, starting from a
dialogue between Historical-Dialectical Materialism (LUKÁCS, 2010; MARX,
2007; 2013) and Southern Epistemologies (SANTOS, 2010A; QUIJANO, 2005;
MIGNOLO, 2011). Three are the central points of reflection: the breaking of the
absolute silence that surrounds the importance of Latin America in the
construction of capitalist modernity; the metabolic linkage between modernity
and coloniality- since the stage of the productive forces and the consolidation of
Eurocentrism as the core of the intellectual world life have a close connection
with the regime of primitive accumulation, colonization and racialization of the
Latin American territories and, finally, the introduction from a materialist
ontological premise to the epistemological debate of the Global South, is that
colonization was the matrix point of the planetary imposition of the Form-
Merchandise (MARX, 2013).
