Human rights and development cannot be understood separately. They
are historically connected by the idea of race, and have evolved
concomitantly with the latter. As the tools of race, human rights
and development have been forged in the effort to legitimize and
maintain coloniality. While rights and development can be used as
tools to achieve protection, specific political goals, or access in
the dominant society, they limit radical social change because they
are framed within a specific dominant ontology, and sustain a
particular political horizon. This book provides an original
analysis of the evolution of the overlapping histories of human
rights and development through the prism of coloniality, and offers
an important contribution to the search for alternatives to these
through the lens of indigenous and other southern theories and
epistemologies. In this effort, Julia Suarez-Krabbe brings new
perspectives to discussions pertaining to the decolonial
perspective, race, knowledge, pluriversality, mestizaje and
identity while elaborating on original philosophical concepts that
can ground alternatives to human rights and development.
