Description
Summary:This text addresses the interculturality theme in the decoloniality perspective in Latin America. The subject is inserted in the contemporary tendency of investigations and reflections on an "other thought", with pretension and distinct approach from what is defended by Eurocentric modernity. The objective is to better understand the causes of the difficulty of Brazil's effective insertion in Latin America and to point out possible paths for the rapprochement of nations. Methodologically, this text results from an exploratory bibliographical study, with reflections based on the theoretical contributions of thinkers from the Modernity/Coloniality Group and alike. It is known that Brazil turns − politically, economically and culturally − to the North Atlantic, with its back to Hispanic America. Interculturality − intercultural education, in particular − is thought to be a possible driver for integration and may be the way to bring Brazilian and Hispanic-American researchers closer together in the decolonization perspective.
