This book reveals how the critique of the domination of capitalism
inaugurated by the Frankfurt School becomes pluriversal, motivating
the historical Critical Theory of Coloniality (CTC) dialogue
between the Global South and the Global North. CTC expresses the
emergence and historical actuality of a set of intellectual fields
aimed at denouncing domination and promoting emancipatory ideas at
the borders of colonial capitalism. The book argues that the
actuality of the CTC relies on the importance of valuing
theoretical and methodological pluralism in the context of the
necessary redefinition of the directions of global society. It
reveals a plural reflection of scientific, moral, and aesthetic
character in different areas of former planetary colonisation such
as Asia, Africa, and America but also on the borders of Europe.
This book is aimed at researchers and students in the social
sciences as well as in interdisciplinary studies. It is attractive
to those who are interested in the plural development of
theoretical criticism outside the European universe and who seek to
understand how capitalist power has metamorphosed with planetary
coloniality. Considering this book implies important reflections on
topics such as development, modernity, tradition, imperialism,
dependency, and democracy, it is interesting to specialists in
development issues, international relations, and policymakers.
