Resumen
GUZMAN, Omar David Díaz y ORTIZ, Juan Carlos Moreno. The Assumptions of an Ethical Duty in the Anthropocene: Contributions from Latin American Decolonial Thought. Trilogía. Cienc. Tecnol. Soc. [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.30, e301. Epub 21-Feb-2024. ISSN 2145-7778. https://doi.org/10.22430/21457778.2624.
The encounter with the new world is an important starting point for discussing the cultural bases of the Anthropocene. Consequently, this fundamental debate should start by relocating modernity and thereby providing a different cartography for the expression of certain ideas and values that have fueled the environmental crisis. Inside this debate, we present some differences with Arias Maldonado’s position, especially regarding the place from which he expresses his ideas. Among the multiple aspects derived from this discussion, this paper ponders on some comments on the Cartesian ego-the fundamental pillar of modernity-from the decolonial perspective proposed by Dussel (according to whom coloniality is constitutive of modernity rather than derivative). From this point of view, this article suggests that the fundamental problem that prepared the ground for the Anthropocene is modernity in its colonial sense. In addition, it proposes that it would be more appropriate to refer to a modern Anthropocene or modern European Anthropocene instead of the universalist concept of Anthropocene.
