Racismo filosófico y el discurso hegemónico sobre lo humano: entresijos de la filosofía

This paper explores and analyzes the development of a hegemonic discourse on humanness within the framework of the colonial system, whose analytical focus is philosophical racism. To this end, we begin by problematizing the alleged neutrality and universality of philosophical discourse around the category of humanness through the systematic exclusion of women from philosophical discourse in order to show how the philosophical discourse of genericity turns out to be a limited and exclusionary one. Second, we focus on the dynamics of the modern/colonial system from which discourses of social classification and hierarchization based on racial identities are constructed, as well as the imposition of Europe as the representative nucleus of the human ideal, in order to examine how a hegemonic idea of the human is developed in this context. Finally, we question how philosophy contributes to the development of the hegemonic conceptualization of humanness, approaching it from the perspective of philosophical racism.
